LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, PA--- In an effort
to familiarize both students and parents with its programs
and campus life, Lincoln University, the nation’s
first Historically Black University, will host a Fall
Open House on Friday, October 25 from 10 a.m. to 2:30
p.m.
Lincoln University is inviting both students
and parents to tour its historic campus, located in southern
Chester County. The Fall Open House will allow students
and parents to tour the historic campus, meet faculty,
students and staff as well as discuss academic information,
scholarships and financial aid. The event will also include
a buffet lunch.
“We are very excited to welcome potential
students and their parents to our campus to meet our faculty
and staff,” said Lincoln University President, Ivory
V. Nelson, Ph.D. “We take pride in the fact that
these students and their parents want to take a closer
look at our institution and all it has to offer.”
Founded in 1854, Lincoln University is
a premier, Historically Black University that combines
the best elements of a liberal arts and sciences-based
undergraduate core curriculum and selected graduate programs
to meet the needs of students living in a highly technological
and global society. The University is nationally recognized
as a major producer of African Americans with undergraduate
degrees in the physical sciences.
From April 2003 through May 2004, the
University will celebrate its sesquicentennial, or 150th
Anniversary with an array of campus and external events,
activities and announcements.
