Jonathan Pattara (sgadia@liberty.edu) I am Jonathan Pattara your Director of Internal Affairs. I am from the south suburbs of Chicago, and a proud member of the LU Class of ’28. I am currently an Information Technology: Data Networking and Security student. I built my first computer with the help of my mentor Rick at the age of 12 and fell in love with technology and how we can harness it for our daily lives. My theme verse for this year is Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” If you want to learn why this is my theme verse please stop by my office hours!

I am so excited to help serve along side the Representatives that you have elected and the Senators that represent your schools!”
