Winter Session Details

Winter Session Overview

Please read the following important information regarding Winter Session. If you have questions directly relating to your class, email your professor. (Their email address is on your portal and Canvas.) Note: students attending the Spiritual Formation retreat and Spiritual Conflict courses will have a different schedule than what is stated below. You'll receive communication directly from your professor. If you have any other questions, contact Lisa Witte.

Classes

• Winter session classes will meet Monday-Friday, January 11-15, 2021, from 8 a.m.-12 p.m. and 1-4 p.m. Teachers will take breaks as necessary. PLEASE NOTE: due to a water main break on campus, on Monday, Winter Session classes will begin on a staggered schedule:

  • Wisdom Literature: 8:00 a.m.

  • Principles of Discipleship and Evangelism: 8:00 a.m.

  • Spiritual Formation Retreat: 8:30 a.m.

  • History of the Roman Empire: 9:00 a.m.

• You'll have access to your winter session class on Canvas by Friday, December 18. If you don't see your course then, submit a help ticket through Canvas. It would be wise to check Canvas for any assignments that may be due on the first day of class.
• You may not miss more than a half-day of class and receive credit for the course.
