The new slate of majors, replacing the single Bachelor of Arts in Religion that had been offered, offer students more choices and degree plans built to have a practical impact on the community of faith and the community at large, says Gwaltney. “The goal of the major is to give students who feel called to be involved in ministry the tools to express their artistic talents in ministry and service,” said Dr. Gwaltney.
