1780 – The Official Blog of Transylvania University
As Transylvania’s new school year gets underway today, the university welcomes five new faculty members to campus. These educators from a variety of fields — from religion to theater — bring a wealth of scholarship and experience to Transylvania.
Transylvania Theater’s 2019-20 season will tackle the topic of resilience — university’s theme for this academic year — with four productions reminding us of our capacity to overcome challenges with both grit and humor.
In the latest college rankings from the Washington Monthly magazine, Transylvania University is highlighted as one of the top 10 liberal arts colleges in the nation for promoting public service.
The first weekend at Transylvania was full of traditions for the Class of 2023 — moving in, greeting classmates, attending Transylvania’s Induction Ceremony. That culminated in yet one more tradition — a class photo on the steps of Old Morrison. The class is comprised of students from across Kentucky, 16 other states, and eight countries. They continue their First Engagements orientation classes throughout the week. Returning students arrive on campus on Aug. 30 and Sep. 1, and fall classes begin Sept. 3.
Welcome Class of 2023 to the first day of the rest of your life — beginning right here at Transylvania University.
