Having Light, we strive to build a diverse and inclusive culture in our community.

Having Light: The Campaign for Wittenberg University is an endeavor to support all that defines us: the people, who inquire, create, inspire, and compete here; the place, where we come together as a community and welcome others to learn and grow; and the present, when the next generation of Wittenberg graduates learn to pass on its light. As such, Witt strives to build a diverse and inclusive campus that enhances the living, learning, and working environment for every member of our community.

The McClain Center for Diversity and Inclusion Fund – Created in 2020, this fund was designed to provide support for enhanced programming for the McClain Center for Diversity and Inclusion. This fund may be used for, but not limited to, student programming, leadership development, and/or other areas of need that have been identified.

Concerned Black Students (CBS) Scholarship – Gifts to this endowed scholarship fund provide financial aid to deserving African American students who have shown demonstrated need, with preference given to students who are active in the CBS organization.
