For Professors

Do you remember what it was like when you were a student? The decisions you faced? The pressures to succeed? The relational conflicts?

In the young adult season of life, perhaps more than any other season, you solidify the kind of person you are going to become. The five years spent between the ages of 18 and 23 set the foundation for the next fifty. Your character gets formed right along with your faith.  By the end of college, every student will graduate as a believer; but in what?

As a professor, you know this well. Your love for students combined with your position of influence might be just the thing God uses to help shape the spiritual lives of students. By partnering with Destino as a faculty advisor, you can ensure that students leave your school with the character and the faith that will supplement their education for a lifetime.

• Faculty advisors transform Destino movements by legitimizing them as official student organizations or clubs. This distinction helps Destino students reserve meeting space, apply for school funding, advertise on campus, and more. Destino students are more confident about their faith AND themselves when their organizational status is official.
• Faculty advisors often have minimal responsibilities. Destino students and staff can shoulder the workload necessary to get official student organization status, such as drafting a constitution, electing officers, and collecting member signatures. Once a group's status becomes official, there is even LESS to do.
• Faculty advisors help more students become leaders. It is well known that student retention rates are often doubled when they are involved in school community and clubs. Grades are also improved. Destino faculty advisors help build students into leaders by providing a safe place for students to explore spirituality, a necessary component for any leader.
• Faculty advisors sometimes act as mentors. Who could better understand the challenges that students face then you do? Savvy professors can intentionally cross paths with students to help them grow spiritually. With the help of the vast Destino network, professors can even receive ministry training and spiritual care.
