Andrew Kofi Appiah Oppong
- The politics faculty know your strengths and weaknesses—and while they may continually challenge you, they are always quick to remind you that your identity is not found in your grades, but in God.
-
Selvi Bunce
- In studying political science at Calvin, I unexpectedly discovered how concrete and methodical the discipline is.
-
Kathryn Mae Post
- Go beyond the classroom and take advantage of all the opportunities the politics program offers.
-
Ryan Struyk
- Some of my most valuable learning at Calvin happened outside the classroom. Whether planning worship services at midnight in the chapel basement as a worship apprentice, or debating proposals for a new college program as a student senator, or interviewing President Le Roy for that hard-hitting front page story as the editor of Chimes, these formative leadership experiences across campus continue to make a difference in my life today.

Kagenza Sakufi Rumongi
- During my studies at Calvin, I learned that God has a lot to say about political science and international relations.
-
Abbie Vegter
- I learned more than just the subject of political science while at Calvin—I learned how to engage with challenging ideas and form my own opinions.
-
Harm Venhuizen
- "Some of the most influential moments of my time at Calvin have been conversations after class with my professors."
