Illuminating The Holiday Season, Walking The Walk For Wittenberg
Yesterday was the last day of classes for the fall semester. Our students are now busy getting ready for finals and finishing up projects with their professors. We also just enjoyed two nights of our wonderful Lessons and Carols, which you can view here, and started a new campus tree lighting tradition earlier this week. On Sunday, we will support our students once again with our annual Midnight Breakfast, ensuring that they have sustenance and some fun in between their studies.

Thanks for the Memories, Odd vs. Even Challenge, Holding Court
Fall break is already upon us at Wittenberg, and our first semester is moving swiftly. It is a much better time on campus than last year. There is more energy from the students because they are able to do more of the things they love to do. The regular fall sports schedule has resumed, as have concerts, plays, and the activities that draw our community together.

Remembering 9/11, Homecoming Countdown, Welcome to Class of 2025
Today, Wittenberg is joining the nation in observing the 20th Anniversary of September 11, 2001 with a reading and a moment of silence followed by the tolling of the Myers Bell at 8:46 a.m. 鈥� the time when the first plane struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center. The bell will toll for five minutes in sync with other bells from area churches around Springfield. Houses of worship around the nation have been encouraged to toll their bells at that time.

Homecoming Planning, Fundraising Success, Calling NYC Alumni
I always look forward to the start of fall semester, welcoming new students, and the renewal it brings. The energy is rising as students have begun to return. We start a new year celebrating crossing the $85 million threshold in our 鈥淗aving Light鈥� comprehensive campaign 鈥� one sign of your belief in Wittenberg and our future. Our financial results for the fiscal year that ended in June were also better than expected, though still a deficit. We have fewer students than we would like as has been the case at many institutions like us, but I have no doubt we will continue to provide outstanding opportunities for learning, growth, and change.

Vaccinations, Podcasts, Tailgates & More
In less than a week, we will kick off our New Student Orientation program, Destination Wittenberg. Every year, we provide several opportunities for our incoming students to engage with faculty and staff, see where they will live, make social connections with peers, and get a better sense of our academic experience and the resources we offer. These sessions are among my favorite because of the cross-campus participation of so many in our community, as well as the opportunity to celebrate the best of Wittenberg.
