Gen Z Expectations of College

In this episode of Saints Together, Dr. Jay McCurry explores what Gen Z is really looking for in a college experience. This generation wants more than a degree, more than amenities, and more than a polished marketing message. They are looking for value, clarity, belonging, authenticity, and a real connection between education, calling, and life after graduation. Drawing from current higher education research and the distinct mission of Christian higher education, this episode challenges colleges and universities to think deeply about how to reach, serve, and form students in a rapidly changing world. If Christian higher education is going to matter in this moment, it must do more than enroll students. It must help shape them.
