Limited locker room space is currently available for Wheaton's growing number of variety and club sports. Expanding these facilities will alleviate overcrowding and also allow us to provide much-needed hospitality for recruits and guest competitors.

“Our faith is rooted in the Word made flesh and in the words of the Holy Scriptures. As faithful disciples of Christ, we are called to be storytellers, to proclaim the good news of the Gospel. The new Writing Center enables Wheaton students to fulfill this calling by providing them a space in which to write and to grow as writers.”

Alison Gibson, Director of the Writing Center, Senior Lecturer of English

“I'm incredibly grateful for the support I have received from LAS throughout my time here at Wheaton College. Because of the resources and support that LAS has provided me, I have been able to academically thrive in the classroom. I'm deeply excited about the plan to add more study rooms and spaces for LAS, so that they can continue providing support to students like me in the future.”

Julia Schmeidel, '27

“The nature of the kind of rigorous academic work that Wheaton students are doing or are called to do, really requires those places – the place to go do that work. To have somewhere where students can meet up and go study together with an abundance of study spaces, natural light, different places where you can do group study or solo study is unparalleled in the ways that it breaks down barriers to success.”

Melissa Norton, Director of Learning and Accessibility Services
