Why Eric supports the McIlvaine Fund and the Ministry at Kenyon

Eric Christiansen studied physics at Kenyon and graduated in 2003.

Since graduating I’ve pursued a career as an airline pilot and I’m currently flying for JetBlue Airways. When I think back to my time at Kenyon, I’m reminded of the many voices and ideas that I heard over the course of four years from fellow students, professors, and campus ministers. I contribute to the CCO campus ministry at Kenyon because I want students to continue to have access to dedicated Christian ministers within that sea of voices. I know from experience that some conversations have immediate impact, and some take years to resonate, so it’s important to me that there are ministers on campus equipped to walk alongside students today and to plant seeds for their future spiritual health.
