New Saint Andrews College Vision
This document outlines New Saint Andrews College's vision for training leaders to rebuild Christendom and profoundly shape culture. It emphasizes developing leaders through a classical education and within a confessional reformed Christian community. The strategic aim is to cultivate graduates who establish families, companies, schools, and serve in church leadership, with a long-term vision to disproportionately influence society and successive generations toward the submission of all things to Christ for God's glory.

New St. Andrews College Commencement
The document primarily details the 2025 Commencement ceremony, including a prayer for the graduates, recognizing outstanding students (Miriam Barrett, Charlotte Burroughs, Kayla Herb, Caleb Craft, and Katarina Nixon), and presenting thesis work as the culmination of the undergraduate program. Student speaker Caleb Craft delivered remarks emphasizing that nothing is secular and the liberal arts education prepares students to be a certain kind of person who worships God through all aspects of life, calling graduates to influence the broader culture outside the college's enclave. Key themes included recognizing intellectual rigor, spiritual example, and the responsibility to engage with secular culture.
