Nota Bene: Summer Transition to University

Beginning next Tuesday, May 23, Virginia Wesleyan will begin transitioning to university operation. The timeline for effecting the transition will run from May 23 until approximately August 1.

During this period, the major areas of concentration will include the University's graphic identity and branding of all publications and materials; website redesign and review of content; introduction of the IT portal; campus directional signage; athletic uniforms and signage; and product merchandising via the bookstore.

As we reported to the Board of Trustees at its meeting this week, a comprehensive transition is moving ahead; some activity areas, including development of the new website, may extend beyond the summer transition period.

We ask for your patience as we complete this process. A full status report will be presented at the 2017 State of the University address on August 22. In the meantime, please watch your email for additional updates and direct any questions to our University Transition Team leadership, Senior Vice President Mort Gamble and Chief Information Officer Robert Leitgeb.
