For over four decades, Nebraska Wesleyan students have had the chance to win gold medals. Walking, climbing and jumping are just a few of the events involved - but rats are at the center of this popular academic event.

Each year on November 11, we come together to celebrate and thank those individuals who have served our country.

The study abroad experience looks a little different for NWU senior Sierra Smith. Smith, a recent recipient of the Gilman Scholarship, is spending her semester taking classes virtually through the University of Palermo in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Today, we celebrate National First-Generation College Celebration. Alberto, Alexis and Jacqueline Ortega represent just a few of the students, faculty, and staff on campus who identify as first-generation students. We recently asked them to tell us about their experiences at NWU and as first-generation college students. 

The work of the late realist artist Stephen Brown will be featured at NWU’s Elder Gallery later this month. The exhibit is entitled The Aching Beauty of it All: Paintings by Stephen Brown. This will mark the first time the artist’s work has been exhibited in Nebraska.
