CONTACT INFORMATION
Judy Hougen has been teaching at UNW since 1993. She believes learning happens best in community and wants her classrooms to be small learning communities. Writing and appreciating the beauty of literature are acts that reflect the image of God who creates and who delights in his creation.
Writing and literature have the power to transform us and to be used by God to help us to become more empathetic to others and more aware of ourselves and to the layers of meaning that surround us.
