Iowa Wesleyan College nurture an educational process that empowers its students to perceive their inherent and distinctive potential and to act upon this perception autonomously and in mature, creative ways. This mission is accomplished through an institutional commitment to match student to curriculum; to provide vigorous, innovative teaching; and to give consistent attention to both a mastery of adaptive life skills and personalize learning. The purpose of the College is to reveal and reflect to our constituency, our ready and practical responses to an historic charge: the dynamic of liberal arts buttressed by an enduring relationship with the United Methodist Church.
