Our son is a high school senior, and I’m seeing higher education in a whole new light as we walk with him through the task of selecting the college he will attend. At first the process seemed very rational. We out- lined the schools that would fit into our family budget; we talked about his major; we talked about academic rigor; we talked about school size. And then it began to sink in. This decision would affect nearly every aspect of his life. That’s when I really started praying, I mean pray- ing in earnest. And one of my favorite passages from the Proverbs has become a big part of my prayers— “God, I want you to have the last word in this. And to probe for what is good. You are in charge.” (Proverbs 16:1-3 - Michelle’s paraphrase) Each year at New Student Orientation, we gather the prayers and dreams parents have for their freshmen. The most common prayer is, “I want my son or daughter to discover God’s calling in life.” I hear the same desire to help students over and over again when working with faculty and staff on Union’s campus.
