Another great year is set to begin at Winona State University.

The 2013 Welcome Week program will kick off Monday, Aug. 19, with our annual Faculty and Staff Welcome. Please join me as we welcome new members to our community of learners and look forward to all that the new year will bring. View the full calendar of events on our Welcome Week website.

As we embark on a new academic year, I’m inspired by all that this institution has accomplished. From our standing as one of the highest-ranked educational institutions in the Midwest to our recognition for community service, civic engagement, technology, sustainability and safety, it’s clear we are living out the Winona State University mission. This commitment to improving our world will propel us forward into another 150 years of excellence.

Please enjoy the remaining days of summer, and best wishes for a rewarding and successful academic year!
