Admitted Student Weekend March 18, 2022
Wabash College President Scott Feller welcomed more than 100 prospective students and families to campus who are visiting as part of Admitted Student Weekend. “We are a small place with big opportunities. We are a place where you will be surrounded by talented young men, high exceptional faculty, championship coaches, and a support staff that are all focused on one goal: helping you thrive no matter which of the many paths you choose through Wabash College.”
“This place is all about getting out of your comfort zone and growing. I didn’t know what to expect coming to Wabash. I was not fortunate enough to know anyone at my high school that went to Wabash who could provide guidance. But once I stayed on campus and I connected with a group of guys who became some of the greatest mentors and leaders I have ever met in my life, I knew this was the place I wanted to be at,” Davionne Garrett said. “I asked them, ‘what can I expect at Wabash?’ They told me it would not be easy, and that I would have late nights and I would have to ask for help. They told me some of the memories I will make at this fine institution would be ones I would cherish forever … Standing before you four years later, I can tell you they were 100% right.”
A little more than half of entering freshmen choose to live in one of the ten national fraternities. All of the College-owned chapter houses were built new or renovated in the last 20 years and all are located on campus. All of the fraternities are focused on the ideals of scholarship, brotherhood, and service. Each fraternity has its own meal plan, dining room, and cook.
Students who choose to remain independent live in one of eight residence halls. Living accommodations in these buildings vary from single-man rooms to doubles, triples, and quads. All of them have common social areas and laundry facilities. Men who live in residence halls eat in the Sparks Center and have a choice of two meal plans.
