From May until August, Connect2 OWU will be published monthly. Look for the next edition on July 29. We’ll return to our regular weekly schedule in late summer, when we’ll be preparing to welcome new students, inaugurate Ohio Wesleyan’s 16th president, and kick off an exciting academic year. Have a wonderful summer!

Thanks to the vision and generosity of members of the Class of 1959, Memorial Gateway, the entrance off Sandusky Street to east campus, is being restored and will be rededicated during Alumni Weekend 2009. The stately stone pillars are being removed, cleaned, restored and put back in place. In addition, the original brick is being cleaned and put back into place. Memorial Gateway is the third in a series of projects designed to improve OWU’s front entrance to campus.
