Northwestern provides an excellent liberal arts education, outstanding facilities and friendly people. But the characteristic that truly sets us apart from the rest is our commitment to the Christian faith.
RISE stands for REALIZE God wants you to be you, INVESTIGATE your gifts and talents, SURRENDER to the things you cannot change, and ENJOY life with Jesus. Rob Roozeboom, a member of First Reformed Church, began this ministry in May of 2000 as a way to bring a message of hope to youth around the country.
