One of our Sophomores, Rhys Fuller, recently shared his testimony about how the Lord used him this past summer.

“I worked at Camp Assurance this past summer, in Georgetown, Illinois. I was a camp counselor and also worked operational staff when necessary. God taught me how to rely on Him for strength, not only for physically tiring times but in emotionally stressing situations as well. I learned that God gives peace and comfort when we call on Him and trust Him to carry us through.”

We're always excited to hear how the Lord is using both our current and former students.

Congratulations to our 2022 grads!

Congratulations to Rebecca Henderson, winner of the 2022 Web Server Wars. Rebecca, a senior counseling major, launched 71 attacks to take out 8 of her fellow student servers, achieving the highest "kill rate" of the war. Her server also survived the largest number of attacks of any contestant. Her server was one of two to run without crashing for the duration of the wars. There were 11 qualifying students who participated in the wars this year.

Background: The Web Server Wars have been an annual tradition in Dr. Schaub's Unix Programming class for many years. Students write a robust HTTP server in C using secure programming practices. During the contest, they launch attacks to test each others' defenses. An automated tool created by Dr. Jueckstock of the BJU Cybersecurity faculty adjudicates the attacks and reports their outcomes.

The Division of Math held its annual spring picnic for the juniors and seniors this Thursday. We had a great turnout and enjoyed good food and fellowship.

Congratulations to freshman Engineering major Garrett Jones, winner of the 2022 BJU programming contest. Junior Computer Science major Kevin Kuhn took second place, and senior Engineering major Steven Platt came in third. Way to go, gentlemen!

Thanks to recent graduates Samuel Henry, Nathan Collins, Ryan Longacre, Caedmon Evans, Jacob Brazeal, Jeremiah England, Caroline Seiber, and Zac Hayes, who contributed problems. Several of them also assisted with judging the contest.

Special thanks to Jackson Dawson and VisioStack for supporting the contest.
