First-years move in Saturday, and we can't wait to see all our new Knights on campus. Here's a little advice on how to make the most of the next four years from last year's Outstanding Senior in neuroscience, Ella Vander Zee.

"Be willing to try new things and embrace the changes that will occur because they could lead you down amazing roads. It is okay to come into college and not have everything figured out right away either. Whether it is not knowing what major you want to pursue, what career you want, or what classes to take next semester, there are many opportunities for you to take at Wartburg that will help you sort out where you need to be. These opportunities will not only help you discover where your true passions lie, but will also connect you with more people that can be very influential for your journey through college."

"I loved my music ensemble tour experiences, especially my international tour. I got to see things I never thought I would get to see. It is amazing to reflect how far music has taken me in college." Hannah Johnson ’26, music therapy
