Community Life

You are coming to North Park to get an education (and we think a great one!), but we know this means a whole lot more than classrooms and homework. Our three core values—Christian, urban, intercultural—will challenge you in your academic pursuits, but also play a role in your relationships, your extracurricular activities, and your whole community experience. And you’ll be able to take what you learn outside the classroom back to your classes and on to wherever your journey takes you.

During Threshold you’ll have a chance to get a taste of community life, and also learn about our expectations for all our students, faculty, and staff as we learn together throughout the coming year. To make sure you’re ready to dive in, here are some of the resources you should check out.

Get Involved: Student Government, Clubs, and Special Events

There are many different ways you can dive into the community at ºÚÁϳԹÏ: student clubs, CAB (Campus Activities Board), and running for a student government office in SGA are just a few.
