As you
consider one of the most important decisions of your lives, I am honored that
you have turned your attention to The University of Findlay (UF). And I am
impressed by you — by
your openness to a distinctive education founded and sustained by church and
city.
At UF,
you will discover many of the same advantages you would find at public
universities — six
colleges and 60
majors from which to choose, 24 intercollegiate sports, 20
intramural sports (offered in 29 sessions during the year), more than 100
student organizations, 14 honor societies, a television and a radio station,
high-tech classrooms and labs, and beautiful outdoor spaces.
But you will also
find yourself among friends and mentors who know you well and share your
dreams. Our world-class professors and administrative professionals will
provide for you opportunities for hands-on learning. Whether you are taking
graduate or undergraduate courses, you will have real-world experience that
will prepare you to compete well in the job market and to grow as leaders in
your professions.
At UF, we
are all teachers. Every faculty and staff member is dedicated to your
success. If you choose to join us,
you will teach us about the perspective, aspirations and character of 21st-century
students. Together, we will engage in a respectful and rigorous exchange of
ideas.
We will serve alongside one another as we reach out to people in need in
ways that demonstrate UF's grounding in the Christian ideal of service.
If you
enjoy learning by doing, are willing to ask important questions about yourself
and your world, and are ready to join a caring community grounded in Christian
values and civic duty, then I believe you will discover that UF is a place you
can call home.
