Snapshots of WVU include the serious, the lighthearted, the technological, the artistic. All the elements form a unique picture. Nobody else is like we are. Nobody else has all of these DNA strands in quite this order. From human identification to puppets and a long-hidden Elizabethan poem to comprehensive online education, WVU is sure to surprise you with our history and scholarly tradition.
You may have brushed past one or two when you were a student at WVU. They may have looked diminutive behind books and papers and tasks. But if you had a chance to speak with them you would have seen the giant souls they bear inside. Throughout WVU, there are these souls. They have worked long to send their students out into the world. Some have retired. Others have not. One has passed. Yet they remain icons, giants who allow their students to achieve more because of their mentor’s insights, influence and sacrifice.
