Art
There’s nothing better than seeing a student who’s never made a drawing ‘get it’ and recognize that they’re a creative person inside. So often our creativity has been suppressed in our youth — brining it out can be life-transforming.
Michael Pearce
Associate Professor
English
When mentoring students in research projects, it’s the beyond-the-classroom context that allows creating a long-term collaborative relationship between the students and me. So, I can wear the many different hats of a teacher to support the students and share a greater perspective on the significance of their projects with them.

Assistant Professor
Exercise Science
The Exercise Science department has prepared me for my future career by giving me many hands-on experiences with equipment in the field. Cal Lutheran has exceptional labs that allow us to collect a lot of data! I also have had the opportunity to complete directed research, which helped me to better understand and conduct research.
