Surveys show that Americans’ confidence in higher education has declined significantly in recent years, especially among Christians.  America’s universities, however, have a long history of Christian witness and influence.  In fact, one could argue that Christian influence at leading academic institutions such as the University of Michigan is stronger now than it has been for several decades.  This panel session will explore how God is at work at one of the world’s great universities through the faithful daily work of Christ-followers.

Panel members:

• Jenni Ashcroft, Associate Head Coach, UM Track and Field

• Christian Casper, Teaching Professor in Technical Communication, School of Engineering 

• Marie Ting, Assistant Vice Provost for Access and Opportunity
