As a result of that confidence and a new commitment by the student, failure became accomplishment, uncertainty became hope, and that hope provided new possibilities for growth, development, learning, and success. In countless stories, our students and alumni tell me the names of people who have made a lasting difference upon them and their lives. Since its founding, Point Loma Nazarene University has purposed to make a difference in the lives of students. We believe that the best in academics finds its completeness in the life and discipline of a daily relationship with Christ. We also believe that the expression of that completeness is shared in the interaction and relationships of talented professionals from every area of the university.
People do make a life-changing difference.
As we begin our ninety-eighth year, I have great confidence and optimism for the future because of the people who are giving themselves in service throughout the university. The passion for an education that makes a difference is alive and well on the campus of Point Loma Nazarene University.
