Consider the Ravens (Scholar’s Compass)

November 26, 2017 by Elsie Lee No Comments

July 1, 2017 by Joshua Wu 3 Comments

About Us

The Emerging Scholars Network (ESN) is a national network within InterVarsity’s Graduate & Faculty Ministries which supports those on the academic pathway as they work out how their academic vocation serves God and others. We encourage and equip undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, and early career faculty as they navigate each stage of their academic vocation and transition to the next step in or beyond the academy.
