Nota Bene: Fall 2017 Port Day

Today I'd like to personally invite each of you to take part in Virginia Wesleyan’s Fall 2017 Port Day, a signature program designed to demonstrate and promote the academic achievements of VWU students completing capstone undergraduate research, internship, and semester study-away experiences. Please mark your calendar for Tuesday, December 5, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:45 p.m.

On Port Day, no classes, meetings, or athletic events will be held during the day, allowing the entire campus community to celebrate the accomplishments of our students, learn about the good work completed, and hear about the transformative power of participation in capstone academic experiences. Students will share their work through oral and poster presentations during campus-wide sessions, reflecting on their experiences and answering audience questions. The day will be particularly important for students who would like to learn how they, too, may undertake a capstone experience at Virginia Wesleyan.

I encourage all students, faculty, and staff to participate in this important Virginia Wesleyan University tradition and to join me in congratulating our student participants for their achievements. View the complete Port Day schedule at:
