Communication major follows God’s call to attend SWU

Nickie Heerschap,
Communication major
"I fell in love with Southern Wesleyan University the first time I came to campus.
I was a sophomore in high school and was a member of a Wesleyan youth group. I had never heard of SWU until the youth group came to visit the campus for a CRAVE weekend, but the moment we drove into the parking lot, I felt like this was the college for me. I tried to fight it by looking into other schools, but God kept showing me this was the school He wanted me to attend."
