Inspired by the biblical question and, more recently, Lady Gaga’s cover of the “Mister Rogers” classic “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?”, MU's Fall 2026 CIRCUIT Chapel series will explore what it means to see and respond to the people around us as neighbors. 🏡💚

📰 Learn more about the “Who Is My Neighbor?” series (begins September 2) and how CIRCUIT is expanding beyond Wednesday morning, creating opportunities throughout the week for students to explore vocation, service, faith, leadership and community ⭐️:

Over time, “CIRCUIT” at Methodist University has become less of a single moment on the weekly calendar and more a heartbeat running throughout campus life. Originally centered around the designated…

Members of the Methodist University Community,

My favorite time of the academic year is Commencement. It is a celebration of dedication, hard work, and excellence, as students and families rejoice in achieving an important life goal. But that’s the end of the academic journey. For so many of you, this is the beginning.

I mention this now because it is important, every step of the journey, to remember the destination you are seeking. Some of you are continuing students, some are new students, but all of you are on a threshold, regardless of where you are on your journey. So, I love this time of the academic year as well. I love the raw energy that is palpable throughout the MU community.

Since mid-July, we have seen many new beginnings, from our inaugural class of medical school students, to new students in our other highly regarded graduate programs, to our new undergraduate students. This all culminated last week in New Student Orientation and Welcome Week Events and meeting advisors. Now is the time for us to tap into that raw energy and take advantage of all that has been afforded us.

If you're new to MU, I offer a heartfelt welcome. You're now a part of a special place full of amazing people eager to walk alongside you as you become your best self. If you are a returning Monarch, congratulations. You're that much closer to Commencement and that celebration of excellence.

I've seen and welcomed many of you the past few weeks, and I look forward to the semester ahead, when there will be many more opportunities for our paths to cross. Please don't hesitate to say hello and share your stories. I, like other faculty and staff, am here to help make your journey as rewarding as possible.

Have an amazing year, Monarchs!

Sincerely,

Stanley T. Wearden, PhD
President
