From Service to Purpose: Kevin’s Journey at MACU
At Mid-America Christian University, our mission comes to life through the stories of students like Kevin Tushka—a veteran, father, and full-time professional who chose to pursue his Psychology degree with us. After transitioning out of the Army, Kevin sought a Christ-centered education that could adapt to the demands of his busy life. He found it at MACU.
Taking evening classes on campus, Kevin was able to balance his academic goals with his responsibilities at home and work. His journey reflects what makes MACU different: real flexibility, genuine support, and a community that meets you where you are. Whether you’re advancing your career or discovering a new calling, MACU is here to help you thrive.
