Season
of Major Conferences on Campus IN ADDITION TO SOME 1,000 students enrolled in summer classes, Seattle Pacific University has played host to several major conferences since the end of Spring Quarter. From June 11–14, 500 undergraduate and graduate admissions officers and high school counselors came to campus for the annual National Association of Christian College Admissions Personnel (NACCAP) conference. NACCAP’s membership includes 120 Christian colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada. “It was like holding an open house,” says Jennifer Kenney, SPU director of undergraduate admissions. “Our guests found out that Seattle is not just about rain and coffee — that it’s an inviting city with phenomenal natural beauty. They also heard from President Eaton and came away with a strong sense of SPU’s vision to engage the culture.” From June 19–21, the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU) sponsored its annual Critical Issues for Higher Education conference at Seattle Pacific. The summer’s largest event was the 2003 Free Methodist General Conference, which brought more than 1,000 delegates and friends to campus from around the world June 27– July 4 (see page 23). Other organizations visiting SPU this summer range from the Pacific Northwest Ballet and the Fellowship of Christian Cheerleaders to United Way. |
