Peyton Justus, a sociology major from Madison, Florida, transferred to Lee for his junior year. With several family members having attended the university, he says it feels like a “God-thing” that he is here. What first drew Peyton to Lee was the social atmosphere on campus, and he continues to value the strong sense of community he experiences every day. “Everyone is friendly and wants to get to know you, from students and staff to janitors and faculty,” he says. Peyton currently works in the Financial Aid Office and plans to pursue a career in youth ministry after graduation, driven by his desire to support and guide the next generation.
