Wheaton named a ‘Best College’

Wheaton College has once again earned a spot on The Princeton Review’s list of “Best 384 Colleges.”

Bird watching in Ecuador

Assistant Professor of Biology Jessie Knowlton and two Wheaton College students recently spent two weeks in the southern Ecuadorian Andes near the town of Cuenca, conducting research to understand the impacts of climate change and habitat destruction on mixed-species bird flocks, which could provide insight that helps protect them and ultimately the environment.

Major independence

Wheaton offers more than 100 academic programs—from anthropology to theater and dance and everything in between. But sometimes our students want even more. And Wheaton obliges by empowering them to design their own major.
