No ordeal that requires discipline seems pleasant when we are struggling through it. It is only later that we can look back to see the benefits. At Indiana Wesleyan University, we provide a delicate balance between playing a surrogate parental role and allowing room for students to practice their decision-making skills. Character is built on the foundation of solid values. Yes, IWU is a Christian college, but character formation is not an automatic outgrowth of faith.
Character building requires hard work, perseverance and a desire to grow.
Growth in academic competency will be worth little if students do not experience a corresponding growth in character. Character development is what sets the Indiana Wesleyan experience apart. Do all the good you can, by all the means you can in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as you can.
