EATALIAN CAFE...one of the best food places near Life University




Eatalian Cafe is just 0.43 miles (a minute) from Life University. Personally, I find the food very delectable even before I tasted it. This is one of the best food places near the campus aside from Thai and Mexican restaurants which are just around the corner of Harbor Gateway and Redondo Beach Blvd.

Business Students on Field Trip


Project Presentation of Business Students

School of Business offers a variety of training for the future business men and women of the industry. Shown in the photo is Ate Josie during her project presentation, a business proposal, in her Small Business Management subject last summer quarter of 2010. Students are required to wear a business suit to feel the business environment in the classroom setting!... although it caused students to feel nervous but it sounds interesting to have that "feel" of being a businesswoman:) I believe all of them has able to overcome the fear of being in front of everybody in the classroom but surely they have gained the confidence of speaking in front of the class as well.

The trainings and classroom activities provided by the professors are all geared towards the university's goals and purpose. Specifically, the school is intent on helping students prepare themselves to pursue their careers and become leaders in their communities. It is the goal of Life University to provide comprehensive education, as well as, professional training towards the award of an undergraduate or graduate degree. Life University focuses mainly on academic excellence with its faith-based, well structured curricula that will result in highly knowledgeable and prepared graduates.

Administrative Staff...Building A Camaraderie With Students

Students' life in the university is not just about learning but also gaining friends and strengthening that friendship. The administration staff is extending extra time to be with students to build a special camaraderie. I and Mr. Carlos, the school registrar, had enjoyed a time with two students, Ate Jenny and Ate Josie, from the School of Business during their last day of classes in summer quarter of 2010.
