APU Dictionary

Alpha: A group you will be placed in the day you move in that includes a sophomore (sometimes a junior) alpha leader and about 8-12 other freshmen. You will all be in the same beginnings class (its a 350 person class that usually just has people speak about current issues) and you will meet one other time during the week to get to know each other and have fun. Its a great way to meet people and as awkward as it may feel as first everyone really does end up loving the program.

Biola: ……..

Communiversity: Community + Diversity, a program that plans events and makes the school fun (simply said).

APU Track and Field Retreat

This past weekend, our APU track team went up to Yosemite for a retreat. This is my 5th year going and… you know what, here is a video blog about the whole trip!

Click here to view the embedded video.

This was my first time doing a video blog, sorry about the quality, I’ll get it right on the next run for sure! But I think you got the general idea of what happened.

Aside from the hike, we had a lot of team bonding experiences, including a worship session around a bon fire on Star Rock under a full moon and a bajillion and two stars up above us. It will definitely be another great memory added to my chapter covering the last 4 years being on the APU Track Team.

When we say we barely have free time in College, we mean it!

Hey, its J.P again!! Sorry I haven’t been blogging much, but as the title says, College is extremely busy!!!!

In case some of you readers don’t know already, I’m studying in the mountains near Yosemite for a semester long program called “High Sierra”, which is sort of like a study abroad program. For my Leadership class I have here at the “satellite campus”(campus that is not on the legit APU college) the 22 students here had to go on a 6 day trek in Ansel Adams(sp?) which is part of Yosemite. For 6 straight days, we have no classes, no internet, no phones, no showers, and worst of all, NO TOILETS!! It was a great experience; One of those things that you do once n a life time.My trek group for the grueling 6 day trek consisted of 9 other classmates and professors.
