President's Welcome

Picture of the President

Welcome to Whitworth University! For more than 130 years, ​our people have committed ​themselves to providing an education of mind and heart. ​A Whitworth experience combines incredible learning opportunities with an ​abiding commitment to nurturing the soul. Within these pages, you will learn more about the many and diverse academic opportunities we provide for our students. What cannot be captured here is the true spirit of Whitworth – one that equips our students to ask hard questions, encourages our professors to seek new knowledge no matter where that search leads them, empowers our campus to form a community characterized by grace and truth, and honors the relationships that we build along the way. When you complete your time at Whitworth, you will be among a privileged ​group whose members have been equipped to use their newfound wisdom, gifts and talents "to honor God, follow Christ and serve humanity." 

Go Bucs!

Scott McQuilkin
President
Whitworth University
