What's Next for Iowa Wesleyan University Students as the College Prepares for Closure
Iowa Wesleyan University was the only college freshman Emma Soukup applied to and visited, her heart set on the private university in Mount Pleasant, one of Iowa's oldest. It's close to home and some of her family are alumni. The freshman was one of some 100 students attending Wesleyan’s teach-out and transfer fair Monday morning, where 83 colleges set up information booths in the college's Howe Student Activity Center and made their pitches to the students, according to Meg Richtman, Wesleyan's vice president for enrollment, marketing and communications.
