Shine.

No matter what your major at Gustavus, you will graduate with communication, critical thinking, and leadership skills, which will give you a clearer and more confident vision of who you are in the world. You’ll be urged to ask questions, get involved in worthy causes, and know that your opinion matters. It’s all part of a liberal arts education you’ll only find at Gustavus.

The world will present great challenges in the next few years. Who will be equipped to take on those challenges to make the world a better place for everyone? Who will be equipped for the kind of success that goes beyond a great career? Who will be ready for the future? You will.
