Ohio Wesleyan has been busy in all three areas, with the OWU Football Team getting a fan escort to the field, honorary coaches being honored, fans of fine art, and Ohio Wesleyan’s Mock Presidential Nominating Convention gathering separately to plan and celebrate.
Ohio Wesleyan students enjoy a memoir reading by faculty member Amy Butcher and lots of dancing—including in the new Jannuzi Dance Studio—along with some Stuyin’ Up!
Ohio Wesleyan celebrated Community Days on Sept. 5-6, with free admission to all Battling Bishop athletics events. And the battling continued—this time against juvenile diabetes—at Delta Tau Delta’s annual Beach Bash Volleyball fundraiser. The Sept. 5 event raised nearly $2,000 to support diabetes research efforts.
Ohio Wesleyan students slid into fall semester with welcome-home events including a ‘Benes Bash’ during orientation and a zipline party. Prior to classes resuming, a group also traveled to Chicago for the 2015 Interfaith Youth Core’s Interfaith Leadership Institute.
It happened so fast. … Fall semester is nearly here, but Bishop family and friends found plenty of OWU images to capture and share this summer on Instagram. Follow us and show us more. #OhWooo
Work continues to transform Merrick Hall into the Home of The OWU Connection and to create both the new Simpson Querrey Fitness Center and newly renovated Edwards Gymnasium. OWjL campers also were on campus for three weeks in June building their futures with challenging-but-fun classes. Enjoy summer—the excitement builds for fall!
In between all of their studying, Ohio Wesleyan students closed out the year by celebrating Day on the JAY, enjoying a Rock the Block party, listening to a final OWtsiders performance, finishing successful sports seasons, and more. Happy summer!

OWU students also are preparing for the end of the academic year with a “Countdown to Commencement” event for seniors, and they are enjoying the campus by grabbing Frisbees and footballs and spending time outdoors.
The wintry weather hasn’t chilled the OWU spirit! Students celebrated Valentine’s Day with a Spirit and Homecoming Committee-sponsored event that included decorating cookies, sending secret notes, and making cards for each other. Beeghly Library heated up with “Live @ the Library,” a first-time event with music, poetry, and improv comedy. OWU students celebrated Chinese New Year, or Lunar Year, with food and festivities. And Fraternity Hill found a group of brothers participating in a raucous game of pick-up football.
Ohio Wesleyan student-photographers share their latest images from all things OWU.
There’s plenty of construction happening at Ohio Wesleyan — and it involves more than buildings. OWU students are busy creating connections with each other, their professors, the Delaware community, and their futures…
With many people off campus for the recent winter break, we took to social media to see how Bishops were enjoying their time. Thanks to all for allowing us to share these images. For more photos from Bishops near and far, follow us on Tumblr and Instagram. Happy New Year!
Ohio Wesleyan students enjoyed the annual President’s Ball, were up all night fundraising (and studying), and saw the men’s soccer team finish in the top four in the nation. Memorable moments, indeed.
But certainly not calm as excitement mounts in anticipation of the Ohio Wesleyan men’s soccer team playing in the NCAA Division III national tournament. The campus also came together December 1 to light the Hudler Memorial Christmas Tree, an OWU tradition since 2008.
…And a season of singing, dancing, belly-flopping, and football. In addition to studying hard, Ohio Wesleyan students are celebrating Diwali, the Festival of Lights, and participating in events such as A Cappellooza, Delta Zeta’s fundraising Dance-Off and Sigma Phi Epsilon’s belly flop competition, and the final football game of the 2014 season.
The end of October was a spirited one for the OWU campus! Students came together to support Chi Phi fraternity’s annual Chili Cook-Off and Kappa Kappa Gamma’s “Kappa Kakes” breakfast philanthropy, and the annual Halloween Costume Contest saw students and staff put on their best costumes to impress the judges. Spooktacular!
The beautiful autumn leaves hit peak color during the best time of year at Ohio Wesleyan, the Department of Theatre & Dance entertained the campus with “The Merchant of Venice,” and the Spirit and Homecoming Committee (SHO) organized fun activities for Homecoming Week, including cookie decorating and banner making. OWU and cookies, too? Delicious!
It’s more than just desserts at Ohio Wesleyan as Greek organizations turn whipped-cream pies and gooey, green gelatin into philanthropy; as colleagues surprise President Rock Jones with a birthday cake and candles; and as the Department of Theatre & Dance creates some delicious eye-candy costumes for its production of “The Merchant of Venice.”
