A Bold, Biblical Approach to Geology

Friday, October 4, 2024

Dr. John Whitmore teaching students at the Grand Canyon.

At Cedarville, we approach the study of geology differently from most universities — even ones that identify as "Christian." As with every program we offer, our geology program boldly acknowledges the Bible as the ultimate framework for research and study without sacrificing academic excellence. We are unashamed to adhere to a literal, six-day account of creation and recognize God as the Creator of all life. We are honored to be an Answers in Genesis preferred partner and an invited exhibitor at their annual college expo.

How a College's Graduation Rate Can Save You Money

Friday, February 23, 2024

grad cap on pile of moneyWe all know students who started their four-year college journey… six years ago. Whether they are struggling to pass classes, basking in the learning experience, or simply switching their major too many times, their college education can quickly acquire an even larger price tag when eight semesters turn into 12.

One of the best ways a university can save you money is to help your student graduate on time. Consider the additional costs if students take five or more years to finish. Consider the cost if they never complete their educational goals!

At Cedarville, we make it a priority to help students graduate on time, saving them money but more importantly, allowing them to begin using their career to make an impact for Christ sooner. Today's post provides helpful information about graduation rates and what to consider as you compare college options.

In today's post, Dr. John Whitmore, Senior Professor of Geology at Cedarville University, shares four reasons why Cedarville holds true to a biblical, literal six-day Creation, and why we always will.
