From Beaver College to Arcadia University, our mission has always been the same: empowering students through education.

At Arcadia, education is more than just coursework. It’s about unlocking potential, rewriting futures, and offering opportunities through global learning, meaningful faculty relationships, and real life experiences.

Here’s to the power of higher education.

Don’t let the heat catch you off guard!

Associate Professor Michael Huber, MMS, PA-C, DFAAPA, from Arcadia’s PA Department shares essential tips to help us stay safe, cool and healthy all summer long! ☀️

Summer offers opportunities for outdoor activities and fun, but it also increases the risk of dehydration, heat-related illnesses, and sun damage. Maintaining good health during hot weather requires proactive strategies for hydration, heat safety, and sun protection.

Happy Pi Day! 🥧🔢Did you know that no matter where you are on the planet, if you divide a circle by its diameter, you’ll always get the same number? That’s the magic of pi!

Dr. Carlos Ortiz from Arcadia’s Mathematics and Computer Science Department breaks it down for us: Pi isn’t just a number, it’s EVERYWHERE. From different civilizations, to modern engineering, designing gears and wheels to calculating navigation on Earth, pi helps shape the world around us! And the wildest part? The world record for calculating the digits of pi is around 105 trillion digits!

We asked Dr. Carlos Ortiz, a professor in the Mathematics and Computer Science Department, to shed some light on pi, something we’ve probably all heard about but may not know much about.
