This year, The Echo has once again had the privilege to spotlight the stories of this community and the people who make it distinct. Stories of our sports communities whose players pushed each other to make history. Of dorm floors that have bonded over niche traditions. Of student clubs that took initiative when they saw an issue presented itself. Of student actors and actresses whose long rehearsals paid off on the big stage.

Few words are as closely tied to Taylor as “community” – or as often repeated. When students are asked why they chose Taylor, what their favorite part of the school is, or what defines the campus experience, the answer is often the same.

For the past several years, it has been my great privilege to walk through life at Taylor with the class of 2026. You were the first class that I helped recruit, which makes this commencement especially meaningful for me.

Over the past four years, you have built friendships that will last a lifetime. You have walked through long nights of studying, difficult conversations, chapel services, athletic competitions, mission trips, floor retreats, celebrations, and countless meetings and ordinary moments that slowly shaped you. Taylor has never only been about earning a degree; it has always been about formation.

Dance is an emotion-driven and kinesthetic form of storytelling that uses the body as a medium, Amya Floor, a junior exercise science major and dancer, said.

As the year draws to a close, six journalism majors reflect on their time at Taylor University as well as the next steps in their journeys.

All the seniors have unique stories of how they came to Taylor. For Kenna Hartian, an email that was meant for someone else was sent to her dad, catalyzing her decision to come to Taylor. Others grew up hearing about Taylor, and after visiting, decided to attend it.

For the last four years, senior Caleb Joshua Heffron has devoted himself to covering Taylor sports as much as he can. He’s done it semester in and semester out, all the while putting smiles on his classmates’ faces.

He took the reins of The Echo’s sports section by himself his sophomore year and quickly decided that every Taylor athlete needed their story shared. With this, the sports section was granted two full pages instead of one, and Caleb got to work.
