It was great to see our friends from the Virginia Foundation for Independent Colleges and other member institutions on Saturday as Virginia Wesleyan hosted part two of the VFIC STEM education workshop series. The workshops are meant to provide a foundation for a long-term initiative in this area. Host institutions were selected in part to highlight some of the recently completed facilities among VFIC institutions. The VWU workshop was held in our award-winning Greer Environmental Sciences Center. Read more here.
