Sam Winkler to Attend Ohio Wesleyan University

2017 Aug 9

Sam Winkler of Mason, OH, will attend Ohio Wesleyan University this fall.

At Ohio Wesleyan, one of the nation's leading small, private universities, Winkler expects to study business administration.

Ohio Wesleyan President Rock Jones, Ph.D., said the university is excited to welcome its Class of 2021 and to help prepare these students for life in a rapidly changing, interconnected world.

"A liberal arts education challenges students to hone capacities for critical and analytical thinking, to master the ability to communicate persuasively, to work with teams of people to explore complex problems from multiple perspectives, to listen smartly and learn that asking the right question almost always precedes discovering the right answer, to embrace diversity as a source of creativity and power, and to develop empathy as a tool for human flourishing," Jones said.

"We are dedicated to our students' success," he added, "and to positively changing their lives every day."

Ohio Wesleyan is among the schools featured in the guidebook "Colleges That Change Lives: 40 Schools That Will Change the Way You Think About Colleges."

According to the respected book: "[T]he campus buzzes with excitement. Everyone is dreaming big, and the college has the structure to support those dreams. ... The character development that accompanies intellectual growth is exceptional. Few places pay so much attention to the whole person."
