The Cal Lutheran Experience

English

I really appreciated the professors' efforts to diversify the reading lists and ensure that many cultures and perspectives were well-represented. As a Latina, I cannot say that I had read Latin-American literature before my classes at Cal Lutheran, where professors made a conscious effort to feature an array of voices.

My objective is to prepare a student to succeed in the classroom and post-classroom life by filling my classroom and advising with a practical and theoretical learning experience.

I took two full semesters before declaring, and I am still on track to graduate in four years with a double major. It is totally manageable and possible! It helps that Cal Lutheran has so many class options and is not overly impacted like some programs at other schools.
