The Board of Trustees of Manchester College voted
on Saturday, April 21, 2012 to change the name of
Manchester College to Manchester University,
effective July 1, 2012. The change comes in the light
of Manchester’s
- Growing complexity,
- Second campus in Fort Wayne,
- Academic program that includes undergraduate
programs, two master’s programs,
- Desire to increase our marketability with
prospective undergraduate students.
Manchester will continue to have
- The same Mission,
- The same student-focused approach to
undergraduate education
- A similar student-focused approach in our
graduate and pharmacy programs,
- Programs and services to help students succeed
academically, and
- Faculty-student learning opportunities that help
students exceed even their own expectations.
I am reminded once again of Dag Hammarskjold’s
words:
“For all that has been – THANKS!
For all that will be – YES!”
