ACA Students Visit
York College
Howard Todd, ACA’s Campus Minister, accompanied
six ACA students, Lauren Henry, Cade Horn, Keeley
Nguyen, Aly Nguyen, Justin Fausnight and Lindsey
McDaniel to York College in Nebraska this past summer
for the Presidential Leadership Institute.
Senior Lauren Henry took full advantage of the
opportunities she encountered. “A total of 30 students
from five different schools selected from across the
United States attended. Together, we listened to speakers
and presentations about growing leadership skills with
a Christian influence,” she said. “I gained immense
knowledge and insight about not only leadership, but
also cooperation with others, how to improve public
speaking skills, and how to be a better Christian.”
