Corban Alumni

Last month we celebrated the newest addition to our Golden Grads, those who graduated 50 years ago from Western Baptist Bible College in El Cerrito, CA, the class of 1965! Three graduates were in attendance:





Donald Curtis - Monmouth, OR
Sharon (Meadows) Jarka - Salem, OR
Lee Johnson - Sedro Wooley, WA






They joined a group of past Golden Grads who graduated from many other classes for a reunion brunch then it was off to commencement where Don, Sharon, and Lee received their Golden Grad medallions!
 

Congratulations to the newest graduating class of 2015 and to the 50-Year Golden Grads Class of 1965!

Favorite memory as a student:

 

Dorm life. The lifetime friendships, fun, spiritual growth and challenges (pranks) that we accomplished during our four years together. I will never forget when the guys in our dorm successfully covered Aagard Hall in toilet paper on our last night on campus. This feat was weeks in the making, and we executed such a plan quietly and flawlessly. Only one girl saw us, and she promptly removed all our artwork without any other girls' knowledge that it even happened. The next morning at breakfast all of us guys (the perpetrators) thought the girls would be talking about it. But none of the girls even knew about our award-winning feat. I found out who the girl was that "showed us up" and ended up marrying her.

escribe your passion for Corban University today:

 

My passion for Corban University is its students.Once a student graduates, adult life begins. Some students dive right into their careers with out any bumps. Others, may need a year or two to transition from an incredible 4 years of college growth and experiences, to their career. My passion lands right at those students. My goal is to provide an enjoyable and safe place to work and grow while the Corban graduate begins their adult life. Some need a few years to find their job, others need a few years to get their feet under them to begin their adult journey. Whatever God has for these, I feel passionate about these people and want to show them a spiritual growth affirming employment experience.
