Why I Taught at SPU

Wayne Johnson, Professor Emeritus of Music

"Being a professor of music at Seattle Pacific University allowed me to share my love for music with students who are also passionate about it. It also allowed me opportunities to fulfill my calling as a performing artist. Teaching is a great way of giving back, encouraging, and nurturing the God-given talent in the wonderful young people we serve at SPU."
