7:45AM Every chapel starts out with singing a hymn before going into announcements and a message.

8:00AM On Monday mornings, Brad leads his accountability group of five guys. Accountability groups provide a chance for students to quote their weekly memory verses, discuss what they’ve been reading, and pray for each other in a small-group setting.

10:00AM Today starts Human Resource Management class, a test that just the business students have to take.

1:30PM For part of the afternoon, Brad chooses to audit a class being taught on the history of Vietnam.

3:00PM The rest of the afternoon is personal study time for Brad.

5:30PM Mealtimes are always fun times of fellowship!

7:00PM Students have the evenings free to do whatever they want to do. During the winter months, Brad enjoys playing ping-pong with the other students.

8:00PM Brad is also involved in the Verity Chorale.

9:00PM The Verity Chorale meets once about once a week and performs at special events.

10:00PM Curfew for Brad is at 9:15PM. He spends the last part of the day studying and talking with his roommates before going to bed.
