Roth, the president of Wesleyan University, is teaching a course in European intellectual history on Coursera.

Roth says the Wesleyan board is supportive; maybe they are just lucky.

Was the gym the LA Fitness on Wesleyan by chance?

Priscilla Meyer, of Wesleyan University, told me that enrollment in Russian courses has decreased by 40 percent since 1991, with a particular hit in the Soviet department.

I used to laugh secretly at my liberal arts peeps at Wesleyan (a worse liberal arts college) when we just graduated 6 years ago.

Two years ago, Dan Stillman and Matt Eaton, then sophomores at Wesleyan University in Connecticut, launched WesMatch.com, a site featuring a humorous, elaborate personality questionnaire.

I also finished my Wesleyan CS degree in 3 years, and it was totally doable (although that was by taking 1.5-2x normal credits most semesters and some careful planning).

In the past few years some examples include Holy Names University, Iowa Wesleyan University, Marymount California University, San Francisco Art Institute, Wells College, and the list goes on.

The University President in question does not even run a medical school; Wesleyan does not, to my knowledge, teach anyone the art of medicine, however highly it might rank as a liberal arts institution.

Despite her every possible advantage, including test-prep courses and retaking the exam, her SAT scores were some 240 points lower on the 1600 point scale, placing her toward the bottom of the Wesleyan range, while her application essay focused on the philosophical challenges she encountered when she was suspended for illegal drug use.

I agree, Wesleyan is really expensive which I understand it to be a function of "communism in action," in which the school's bulk of annual funds is funded by tuition and re-funneled to financial aid.

Eventually he got her shifted from the Reject category to wait-list status, after which he secretly moved her folder to the very top of the large waiting list pile.90 In the end “connections” triumphed, and she received admission to Wesleyan, although she turned it down in favor of an offer from more prestigious Cornell, which she had obtained through similar means.

Going to Wesleyan, Reed or Grinnell is like a quirky indie production aiming to please the art cinema crowd.

In that specific quote he’s talking about Ivy League universities, not Wesleyan, but the quote would be too long.

Wesleyan has no hard-and-fast gen ed requirements, which makes this easier to pull off for students.
