Seminary is a time of great change. In the LTSS community, Rachael Theisen, M.Div. '24, found the same support and belonging she plans to share as a pastor.

12 LR students presented their research at the 2024 meeting of the North Carolina Academy of Sciences, earning awards and sharing the thrills of discovery.
