Why Wittenberg?

I chose Witt for many reasons. As soon as I stepped on campus I fell in love and I knew it was where I wanted to spend the next four years. I love the academic atmosphere and the focus on student professors relationships. I also fell in love with the volleyball program. All the girls on the team are very welcoming and created such a positive energy in the gym. I can’t wait to be a part of the team and join the Wittenberg community.
