First Chapel of 2026! 🙌 Starting off the year together with alumni band worship and a message from Dr. Womack: "Salvation isn't a matter of accomplishment, it's a matter of surrender as you ask yourself, 'Am I a fan or follower of Jesus?"

New semester, same community. We are so back for spring! 💙💛

Fall semester on film! 🎞️ These throwback pics to last semester have us excited for memories this spring. Let's make it a great one!

Turner Livingston turned his passion into a plan through his fall internship with @tyrusdivine. 👕👞   As a senior digital marketing major, Turner completed his internship alongside fashion brand owner Tyrus Divine Hosley @tyrushosley, gaining hands-on experience in entrepreneurship, branding, and creative leadership. Turner contributed to professional fashion projects, including assembling style portfolios for NBA athletes’ pregame outfits, and gained valuable insight into how to avoid costly mistakes as a business owner.   The experience also helped Turner refine his own journey as an entrepreneur as he prepares to rebrand his clothing line under a new label, Overlook, with a clearer strategy and stronger vision for the future. Reflecting on the role of clothing, Turner shared, “For me, it’s an expression of yourself. And as a believer, I think people can see a difference through us. Clothing can be a beautiful conversation starter.”   For Bushnell students preparing for internships, Turner encourages them to seek opportunities that align with their interests and pursue mentorship intentionally. “Find something you’re interested in and passionate about,” he advised. “Work with someone who can really help you grow in the field you want to be in.”   Great job, Turner!   Watch the full Q&A in our YouTube!

Too many memories to count in 2025! We had a great year with you, Beacons. We can't wait to see what God has in store for 2026 for you and everyone in our Bushnell community! Don't forget that you can find and download photos from numerous Bushnell University events from 2025 on our Bushnell University Pixieset (through the link in our bio).

For 130 years, our university has been rooted in our Christian faith. For this month’s 130-year anniversary look back, we reflect on the spaces and moments where our university community cultivated faith in Jesus Christ, whether through the collective worship of day Chapel or the quiet reflection of student-led Night Chapel.
