Title

Christopher Alt to Pursue MDiv at Boston College

Message

Christopher Alt '08 has been accepted at Boston College's School of Theology and Ministry, where he will be pursuing a MDiv starting this coming fall. Chris was awarded a full-tuition scholarship for his entire, three-year program of study. At Boston College, he will be working as a graduate assistant for Profs. Daniel Harrington, SJ, and Christopher Matthews, editors of New Testament Abstracts. "I really can't praise USD enough," Alt said, "firstly for the education I received, but also for the generous letters of recommendations from Portman chairs and full-time faculty alike."

Until he leaves for Boston, Alt will continue working for Father Carr's Place 2B, a homeless shelter, retreat center, free walk-in health clinic, and food bank in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. "It has been a pretty eye-opening experience," Alt reported, "with many people dealing with mental illnesses, addictions, and loneliness."
