We opened the 2000-01 school year with a record enrollment of almost 1,600 students. Knights Village, a new student apartment complex, was completed just in time to be called home by 84 of those students. The Robert and Sally Vogel Library has been in service for a year now and receives high marks from students and faculty. It has truly become a cornerstone of the academic experience here. There is a pervasive sense of vitality throughout campus as students and faculty engage in meaningful learning experiences.
Athletic teams compete with the nation's best small colleges.
Music groups tour nationally and internationally and receive great reviews wherever they perform. Wartburg students, faculty, and staff are engaging in service experiences in places like Honduras, East St. Louis, Philadelphia, and Waverly. As the college approaches its Sesquicentennial year of 2002, we remember with gratitude those alumni and friends who have provided financial resources to make this a better place for generations of students. We will rely on those alumni and friends to continue the strength of Wartburg College into the future. I invite you to join the thousands of people who have invested in Wartburg students by making an annual, deferred or capital gift.
