From Ursinus
Each day at Ursinus, you get another opportunity to begin. What you should know is this: Ursinus is a place where you’re allowed to try and fail, explore and examine, open up and drill down. Here, any one or combination of 60 majors and minors develop the intellect and character needed for a rapidly changing world. Starting with a thought-provoking first-year seminar course, students develop the ability to think critically, leading to lives of purpose and professional achievement.
