Lubbock Christian University was recognized as the “Private University of the Year” at the beginning of October by The Washington Center. The award was presented at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. as a part of the 2013 Academic Affairs Awards from The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars. LCU was selected from over 450 universities across the nation.

Several university leaders, current LCU interns and LCU alumni joined President Perrin to receive the award in a packed room of the National Press Club. Lubbock Christian University was honored again at the Washington Center Gala held in the National Buildings Museum in front of a dinner crowd numbering around a thousand participants, which included U.S. government dignitaries and representatives. LCU has participated in the Washington program since 2005, and since the program’s inception, 32 students have experienced a working internship in our nation’s capital.
