Residence Life and Housing
Staff

My name is Austin Robertson, and I am the Resident Director of
the Townhouses. I graduated from Wartburg College in Waverly, IA
in 2003 with a B.A. in psychology. In addition to being a Resident
Director, I am currently enrolled in the JBU graduate program and
am pursuing a M.A. in ministry with a higher education emphasis.
This is my second opportunity to work on a college campus since
my graduation and being in this type of setting could be something
I do for years to come. I love sharing life with students and walking
alongside them as they grow and mature in many different ways througout
their time in college. It is an honor for me to serve the Lord through
my relationships with them in hopes that we might encourage, challenge,
and grow in our faith together.
I am excited about the opportunity I have to serve the residents
in the Townhouses. Many are upperclassmen who are within a year
or two of taking the giant step into the professional world or graduate
school. My hope is that their time in the Townhouses before that
transition might be filled with quality friendships, a sense of
community, and a willingness to glorify and serve the Lord alongside
their fellow residents.
