Campus connections make a big difference in your student’s college career. And Nebraska Wesleyan works hard to help students make those connections to campus resources right away.
My experience as a student at Nebraska Wesleyan was a time of discovery. I took psychology, advertising and German classes, and I was active in campus ministry. All these experiences, in and outside the classroom, shaped me. Each discovery led me to a vocation as a pastor in the United Methodist Church. And now, I’m returning to NWU with a new role as university minister.
The Career Center is hosting its biggest event of the year, Backpack to Briefcase, on Thursday, February 22 from 3-5 p.m. in the Great Hall of Smith-Curtis. More than 40 employers will attend with the goal of hiring NWU students for internships and full-time positions. Some employers also have part-time jobs available.
It’s a leap year, and Nebraska Wesleyan’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion is jumping straight into a full calendar of events and programming. It’s all part of our effort to build a welcoming campus culture through respect, belonging, community and growth.

There were challenges that came in increasingly difficult stages—with satisfying rewards and discoveries that motivated her to keep going throughout.
