IT’S EXCITING AT THE VALLEY LEBANON VALLEY COLLEGE WELCOMES RECORD 513 NEW STUDENTS
The quiet and serene campus turned quickly to excitement during Move-in Day at Lebanon Valley College. Happy greetings among roommates and staff assisting new families blended with the sounds of coaching whistles on the fields and music rising from the Pride of The Valley Marching Band on the Academic Quad. A record 513 first-year and transfer students arrived on campus, and the 466 students in the Class of 2021 make it one of the largest first-year classes in the College’s history. This year’s new students included 47 transfer students. “The Class of 2021 found LVC to be a great fit due to their
many interests inside and outside the classroom, and the knowledge that our faculty, staff, and current students will help them achieve their goals,” said Edwin Wright, vice president of enrollment management. Frank Newman ’21, a chemistry major from Annapolis, Md., described what brought him to LVC. “The LVC Chemistry Department is very impressive. The staff and students are helpful and personable. The first day of orientation made me realize that—in addition to receiving a great education— students can still enjoy a high quality of life. You can play sports, spend time on your hobbies, and make friends.”
