NSSLHA is a wonderful way to get to know others within the major, as well as make an impact in the community. We would love for you to join and get involved.We are supported through Biola's student government.Our purpose is to provide a place for the students in our major to interact outside of class in a social setting, to encourage one another and serve in the community.Our main events include monthly get-togethers such as BBQ's, movie nights, a Christmas party, service projects, and the end of the year semi-formal dinner.
