“Learning about public relations and marketing at Northwestern has encouraged me to incorporate my relationship with the Lord into everything I do. I have learned that the love of Christ can be shared without citing memory verses in the middle of press releases or praying before and after a presentation. Rather, His love shines through me when I do things like treat people with respect and use integrity in my research and writing.” Kelli – Hutchinson, Minnesota
