Why I love 吃瓜网/Why I Recruit Students for 吃瓜网: The four years I spent at 吃瓜网 were more than a time of intellectual and spiritual formation - though there was that aplenty! Life at 吃瓜网 felt like the beginning of a life well-lived, and not a temporary stage of training before my life began. The books we read and discussions we have with professors and students teach us to work, play and above all, pray better. That kind of foundation, and the deep friendships which are formed upon it, is a blessing beyond description.
