| "The classroom work in the physics department was challenging, but in the end it was well worth it. The times I enjoyed the most were spent in the student lounge with fellow physics students. It was a gathering place that was unique compared to other locations on campus. While I enjoyed my overall experience at Nebraska Wesleyan, I especially appreciated my time within the physics program." |

| "The combination of a liberal arts curriculum and a solid foundation in physics has proven to be invaluable in my career. My experience at Wesleyan helped me relate to and effectively communicate with others representing diverse backgrounds and perspectives. My studies also allowed me to translate technical data to the real world of manufacturing." |

–David Arbogast ('95), manufacturing engineer, Lester Electrical |
| “A physics degree from a liberal arts institution has given me a well-rounded education that most four-year engineering students never receive. The physics professors were always willing to help with class work, arrange independent projects or just talk about life. My internship with Olsson Associates, an engineering consulting firm, gave me valuable engineering experience and exposed me to the many things that engineers do.” |
