# Wesleyan UniversityWhen applying to colleges I was very concerned about putting myself in a box. I was drawn to the open curriculum and the opportunities afforded to me to take classes in the social sciences and humanities while maintaining a strong STEM background.My brother was born with complex congenital heart defects. That’s why I have always wanted to learn more about what happens on the molecular basis that triggers gene expression. At Wesleyan, I can pursue meaningful lab research as a first-year student.Through art, you can imagine new worlds, right? You can imagine the future—the future can be in your hand when you use art as a medium. You need art along with science to be able to cope with that as a human.Assistant Professor of Earth and Environmental SciencesI think in terms of finding your community and finding places where you feel comfortable – Wesleyan is unbelievably open.I’m choreographing my life. Dance is about storytelling—and so is the practice of diversity, equity, and inclusion. They both stem from the narratives and perspectives that you share with the world.We want to ensure that civic engagement is a lifelong commitment embedded into the fabric of our campus community that persists beyond elections.Rob Rosenthal Distinguished Professor of Civic Engagement and executive director at Allbritton## Life Beyond AcademicsIt’s all here—so many opportunities for a full, rich life beyond your classes.* Athletics With a high-level of competitive excellence, over half of our student body is active in either varsity, club, or intramural sports every year.* Housing and Dining Nearly all of our students live on campus for their full undergraduate experience, making Wesleyan an uncommonly close community.* Clubs and Activities The fearlessness, fierceness, and fun that define our community come to life in our 200+ student clubs, groups, and teams.## News and EventsThe same call, in code.
