Bryan College will host Homeschool Visitation Day on Thursday, September 15, on its campus in Dayton, Tennessee. Along with special guest speaker Tim Echols, founder of TeenPact, it will be a jam-packed day of activities just for homeschoolers. There will be campus tours, workshops with Dr. White Jones – Bryan College American Literature professor and Apologia author – and others, lunch and guests will have an opportunity to meet faculty, staff and students.
Homeschool Visitation Day (HVD) was created to introduce homeschoolers to the academic and extra-curricular opportunities available to them at Bryan College. The Christian liberal arts college has history that dates back as far as 1925, when it was established to provide a Christian worldview education to students. Its motto is “Christ Above All”. Bryan College offers more than 20 majors, has three graduate programs and a student body of just under 1,500 students. The college even has a homeschool specialist, Pat Wesolowski. She is a homeschool veteran and will work to help your child succeed at Bryan College.
Students, ages 15-years-old and older, and their parents are invited to this free event. It will give them an inside look at a day-in-the-life of a Bryan College student.
