Great news for your students with interests in the sciences. The spring semester marks the opening of Nebraska Wesleyan University’s Duane W. Acklie Hall of Science.

The new $29 million facility houses NWU’s departments of biology, chemistry and psychology. With its state-of-the-art equipment, instrumentation and lab spaces, it’s the perfect place for the way our students learn in the sciences today.

Acklie Hall of Science is one more part of Nebraska Wesleyan’s $65 million investment in our entire student body. The university’s successful Bold Designs campaign has raised tens of millions in support of premier learning spaces, scholarships, student experiences and outstanding teaching.

Encourage your students to schedule a campus visit and tour the new Acklie Hall of Science. Every student who takes a formal tour receives Nebraska Wesleyan’s renewable $1,000 Campus Visit Grant.
