Thanks to SPU’s , Heather Bean spent
five days getting a taste of what homeless ɬÀï·¬
encounter in downtown ɬÀï·¬. When she got
back to campus, she switched her major to — and never looked back. This year, Heather
was student liaison to Tent City 3, a self-managed
community of homeless ɬÀï·¬ who lived on campus
for three months. While combatting homelessness
can feel insurmountable, she says connecting
students with TC3 residents through game and
worship nights, poetry workshops, and dinners has
taught her the diversity of ways to make a difference.
