Center for Global Engagement is at the

Since Day One, students, faculty, and staff of Mount Vernon Nazarene (College) University, have been molded to serve others. Founding President Stephen Nease established our motto, “To seek to learn is to seek to serve.” It’s engraved on the Eternal Flame. It’s incorporated in the classroom, in athletics, in Student Life, and of course through Campus Ministries.

Today, it is woven into the fabric of our Center for Global Engagement. In this magazine, we are excited to introduce you to the Center and hope you quickly realize it is a testament to President Nease’s challenge and a commitment to our students and the world steps and miles beyond 800 Martinsburg Road.

Already the Center has opened our students to new cultures and traditions by partnering with global faculty members and other campus offices. We are introducing students — and faculty and staff — to new countries and cultures without leaving campus.
