“Where did YOU do your study abroad?”

Study abroad used to be an optional experience for students. In today’s climate, however, many employers assume that all students are doing some kind of international study. The question employers ask isn’t, “did you study oversees?” It is now, “where did you do your study abroad?” International study experiences beef up your resume quite a bit.

Many students aren’t able to spend a whole semester oversees. Here’s the good news: Corban offers short international experiences like our Great Britain Academic Tour.

You can join Drs Baker, Kersey, and Tennant and explore historic spots in England and Scotland firsthand. Then when asked about your international study, you can confidently tell them about your academic experiences in London, Oxford, and Edinburgh.

For more information contact Dr. Sam Baker

The Great Shari’s Shake Soiree

Did you know that Shari’s Restaurant is creating a new shake flavor in honor of Corban Warriors?! I guess they really do appreciate our business late at night!  So this Tuesday, October 14th at 6:30 p.m. in front of the library stairs you can witness 4 “judges” deciding which flavor is most mouthwatering! Also, there’s still time to submit your idea for a flavor by filling out a ticket with your name & flavor you think Shari’s should create! The tickets and drop off location are at the Student Life Desk just outside of the ASB Office in Schimmel!

DO YOU WANT TO SEE OUR WARRIORS PLAY OREGON STATE?!

Corban University head men’s basketball coach, Steve Masten, announced on Wednesday that the Warriors will be on the Pac-12 Network in a battle against NCAA Division 1 opponent, Oregon State University, on Nov. 18 in Corvallis, Ore., at 7 p.m. “I’m grateful for the chance to play Oregon State for the second year in a row,” commented Masten. “It was one of the highlights of last season, and my players are excited about playing a Pac-12 school at historic Gill Coliseum.” Last season, the Warriors gave the Beavers all they could handle, leading 25-24 with just over five minutes remaining in the first half. After trailing by single digits at halftime, Corban went on to lose the exhibition, 57-77.
The Warriors home-opener, in the C.E. Jeffers Sports Center, will be against New Hope Christian College on Nov. 4 at 7:30 p.m. Seven players return from last season, including its top-four scorers. Senior guard Jordan Carter, sophomore forward Cyrus Ward, sophomore guard Caleb Herzberg, and sophomore guard Toby Roth, all of whom averaged double figures.

Need some Reach questions answered?

Go to Converge, My Courses, Reach. You will find nearly all of your questions answered there. In the meantime, here are a few FAQs:

1. Can I still submit summer Reach work? Yes, go to Converge and read about how you do that. Summer work due by 9-26-2014.
2. Do I need to get “approval” before I register a project? No, just submit (upload) a Project Registration Form through Converge for your Fall 2014 – Spring 2015 Reach work. As long as you are volunteering (not getting paid) at a non-profit organization (includes churches), you’re good to go. If a project is submitted that doesn’t fit these parameters, you will be contacted by email.
3. How do I know how many Reach projects I have completed and how many I have left to do? View your “grade” on the Reach page of Converge. There are four projects for Reach. If you’ve completed one, the grade for that will read “complete.” If you’ve registered for one, but haven’t completed it yet, your grade will read “incomplete.” If you haven’t registered for one, your grade will be blank. If you suspect that your Reach “grade” record is not accurate, it might be because you have outstanding summer work to turn in (due by September 26th). If not, please email our office.

2. Ten minutes of journaling/praying
3. Ten minutes of sharing what we read with each other
