Pizza and Purpose: Coach Jordan Delp

Coach Jordan Delp '09 will present "Career + Passion = Vocation." Delp is Augie's men’s basketball head coach, a first-gen college student, an investment analyst turned entrepreneur, and a junior high overnight sports camp survivor.

Coach Delp's first contact with Augustana was as an eighth-grade sport camper that ended with an emergency room visit after falling out of a lofted bunk. 

Between that first contact and now coaching the men’s basketball team, he began climbing the ladder in investment banking, risked that stability to start his own business, and eventually returned to Augustana as an assistant-turned-head coach. His story is one of overlapping vocations, of trading in security for new possibilities, of the thrill of competition and finding his true passions. 

Come listen to a "slice" of Coach Delp’s story and reflect on your own!

This event is presented by the Presidential Center for Faith and Learning.
