    Welcome Welcome to Warner Pacific University! The 2020-2021 academic year will be undertaken during a period of unprecedented times. In spite of the uncertainty of this pandemic that will affect higher education institutions across the nation, Warner Pacific University will remain flexible, dutiful, watchful and continuous in our following the great grace upon our institution that has sustained it since its founding in 1937. As Warner Pacific University’s newly appointed 8th President, I am confident that we will continue to move forward into a very bright future while building upon the foundation of the past 12 years under the wonderful leadership of President Andrea Cook. My leadership team and I will continue to emphasize and value Warner Pacific University’s standing as a vibrant, progressive university located within the beautiful city of Portland, Oregon. Warner Pacific University is and will remain a Christ-centered urban liberal arts university dedicated to providing students from diverse backgrounds an education that prepares them to engage actively in a constantly changing world. Over recent years, we have come to better understand our mission statement and how it applies to the unique setting of our campus. We seek to educate students who welcome the learning that comes with living in an increasingly diverse and thriving urban environment. Still further, the institution will continue to be guided by its foundational principles and evolution within the past 12 years as a dynamic, progressive institution while maintaining values that embraces its tradition, yet remains open to embrace the particular trajectory we are called to fulfill. To this end, I wish to reiterate and underscore President Andrea Cook’s words from excerpted from the 2019-2020 Catalog: “Four core themes run through our mission statement and guide the holistic educational process at Warner Pacific University.
