Grace College and Seminary augments the classic liberal arts education with an emphasis on the 鈥淏iblical values of character, competence, and service.鈥� Educationally, Grace College offers 鈥渁 great mix of teaching styles and quality professor-student interaction.鈥� Most importantly, 鈥渢he faculty really cares about getting to know the students and helping them succeed individually and as a class.鈥� A freshman reports, 鈥淭he professors offer so much of themselves and you can tell they are devoted to serving Christ through teaching at Grace. I feel challenged academically and spiritually here.鈥� Prospective students should be aware that religion is an important aspect of the academic experience at this evangelical Christian school and 鈥渆very single faculty member will begin class, not by requirement, but by choice, with prayer. They will also try to incorporate a Biblical approach to the class in any way they are able.鈥� Most students choose Grace precisely for its strong spiritual focus; others would like the school to encourage 鈥渁 more lively, worldly, and interactive environment,鈥� rather than leaning so heavily on religion.

Given its location and religious affiliation, its not too surprising that 鈥渢he vast majority of students here are Caucasian, conservative, republican, middle-class, evangelical Christian, heterosexual Americans.鈥� As such, many students share an interest in 鈥渄ynamic worship and contemporary Christian music.鈥� A freshman adds, 鈥淭he students at Grace are very dedicated to their studies and their personal spiritual growth. You can tell that these students are here because they want to be.鈥� Despite some common denominators, 鈥渘o two Grace students are exactly alike. We share basic beliefs and a lot of us have a common background, but the student body represents lots of different talents, interests, and personalities.鈥� 鈥淢ost students are social, kind, and sensitive to others鈥� moods and feelings,鈥� and there are plenty of social outlets for any type of person. A sophomore tells us, 鈥淵ou never have to eat alone, and you can always find someone who wants you to tag along with them to Wal-mart or Steak n鈥� Shake, even if you鈥檙e not that popular.鈥�

When they aren鈥檛 studying, many Grace students participate in intramural sports, and 鈥渄uring the spring, summer, and fall seasons, outdoor activities are very popular.鈥� On weeknights, students 鈥渄o homework, watch TV, drive to fast-food or Wal-mart, or update Facebook,鈥� along with 鈥渉anging out at the coffee shop on campus,鈥� 鈥減laying games,鈥� or 鈥済oing down the hill to one of the many small restaurants.鈥� By most standards, campus life is 鈥渧ery conservative鈥� and 鈥渁lcohol and other drugs are very uncommon.鈥� The vast majority appreciates the wholesome college atmosphere, though some feel that students don鈥檛 need a curfew and 鈥渟hould be able to drink off-campus (because if you are 21, you are legally allowed to do it).鈥� Located in the beautiful resort town of Winona Lake, off-campus attractions are limited to a few restaurants and a movie theater. However, the Student Activities Board offers on-campus programs that are widely attended, 鈥渟uch as $1 unlimited Taco Bell night, bowling night, [and] laser tag night.鈥�
