Schedule of Events

From the student-focused Witt Way Wednesday and a faculty-led research symposium to Tiger Town 2.0, service, and athletics, the Wittenberg campus is excited to shine a light on all that makes the Wittenberg Way special during President Brady's Inauguration Week, October 15-19.

"This is a lovely spot for the location of a literary institution. It requires some faith to believe that in after years it will be an academic grove, to which hundreds will resort to drink at the pure fountains of knowledge, and go forth into the world to do good, to bless mankind. And yet I have faith to believe that this will be realized."
