Students will develop expertise in:
Students engage in discussions about the “big” questions of life and become involved in evaluating a variety of viewpoints. In the process, they develop the ability to assess evidence, to weigh arguments and to construct informed opinions.

My name is Vinton Copeland, and I was fortunate to graduate from what was then Tusculum College in 2013. Tusculum gave me a solid foundation for the things I am doing and have done in the past, and I am forever grateful. I currently serve as the pastor of a great church in West Georgia (Powell Missionary Baptist Church), a firefighter for Columbus Fire & EMS and a new realtor with Coldwell Banker KPDD of Columbus. I must admit that I have been privileged because of my Tusculum experience.
Students with a concentration or minor in religion do the same things – in approximately the same percentages – that other humanities and social science majors do. Religion graduates often go on to further career training and jobs in:
Professional Ministry
Advanced Degrees
Other Careers
