Jarvis Christian University has been awarded a $130,000 NetVUE grant from the Council of Independent Colleges to launch Chapel as Curriculum, an innovative initiative that will transform chapel into a campus-wide framework for vocational formation.

This four-year project will help students explore the intersection of faith, purpose, leadership, and career through a thematic chapel series, Chapel Labs, faculty mentorship, and experiential learning opportunities.

By integrating spiritual formation with academic and professional development, Jarvis continues its commitment to educating the head, the heart, and the hand while preparing graduates for lives of purpose, service, and leadership.

We are grateful to the Network for Vocation in Undergraduate Education (NetVUE) and the Council of Independent Colleges for investing in the future of Jarvis students.

Dr. Hollman’s commitment to STEM education is equipping Jarvis students with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to become tomorrow’s scientists and innovators.

🚨 CAMPUS JOY ALERT! 🚨

There is something special happening in East Texas.

Two dynamic women presidents are leading institutional transformation at two of our region’s historic HBCUs: Dr. Glenell M. Lee-Pruitt at Jarvis Christian University and Dr. SherRonda Gibbs at Texas College Steers.

Their leadership represents vision, possibility, and the continued strength of women shaping the future of higher education.

Two women. Two historic institutions. One region on the move.

Consider yourself warned… great things are on the way in East Texas! 💙💜
