Self-Disclosure and Co-Rumination at NCU Night Chapel

This senior capstone project evaluates the effectiveness and impact of an event regarding self-disclosure and co-rumination. The event was held on Northwest Christian University campus as a Night Chapel event. Students were encouraged and given the opportunity to verbally share their struggles and experiences as others listened. Attendees were counted, self-disclosure participants were counted, and each participant was anonymously rated with regards to how personal or deep his or her response was, in order to measure the effectiveness of this event.

Mythology Projects

Students in the Mythology class have discovered that many myths, even when they come from varying places and time periods, ask similar questions, such as: Why do human beings exist? How were we, and the world, created? What is our purpose here? What is the cause of suffering? Why is there death, and how should we think about it and live in the face of it? Does fate or free will dictate most events? What does it mean to lead a “good” life? What does it mean to be “happy”? In our presentation, we will synthesize, together, many of the ways various myths have attempted to answer these questions, and we will also put Christianity in conversation with what we have studied in order to analyze how several mythologies anticipate Christ.

WWI Study Abroad

We began a WWI remembrance tour near the point of the German invasion in Ypres, Belgium. Travelling southwest into France we visited pivotal battle sites surrounding Amiens, Perronne, Soisson, Reims, and Verdun. We also had the chance to visit Paris, where we toured Versailles. We ended the trip with a visit to the American Cemetery and memorial at Omaha beach in Normandy. The destruction and devastation of that war is a stark contrast to the beauty of the country and the amazing Gothic architecture that has survived over these many years.

Communication with Long Distance Friends and Family Members

We conducted a survey to test how the distance between students at NCU and their friends and families back home correlates to how much they communicate with them.
