In the early days of InterVarsity, field staff itinerated from campus to campus by train; they were assigned to regions, not campuses. In order to reach every corner of every campus, a goal to which InterVarsity aspires, we may be returning to a semblance of those days with staff once again mentoring student leaders on a number of campuses.

In fact, it’s already starting. But instead of trains, staff use Zoom and Google Hangouts.

“I don’t have any other tool that has worked 100 percent of the time," said Evangelism Director Doug Schaupp. "It always produces conversions.”
