Student Experiences

“Before attending George Wythe University, I had a degree from a traditional college. My previous schooling gave me almost nothing that I’ve needed as a business owner and consultant. But my liberal arts education at George Wythe University launched me into entrepreneurship. Not only did it teach me how to think, but it also taught me how to learn. I’m able to stay on the cutting edge of business and marketing development because I was trained to probe deep, read between the lines, identify patterns, recognize opportunities, innovate and lead.”

-Stephen Palmer, Class of 2006, Round Rock, Texas, Partner of K-Gaps Consulting and The Center For Social Leadership, Founder of The Cause of Liberty, New York Times Bestselling Co-Author of Killing Sacred Cows

"The uniqueness of George Wythe University has been a major influence in my present career development as well as motivating me to discipline myself in a lifelong pursuit of self-education." 

-Ray Gwilliam, Class of 1998, Davis, West Virginia

"George Wythe took my dreams and gave me the tools to accomplish them. While getting a liberal arts education I came face to face with greatness, not only in others, but also in myself. George Wythe has mastered how to see the genius in each student and bring him or her to its discovery. It’s been the hardest thing I have ever done and it’s been worth every hard read, every oral exam and every mentor meeting. The challenges that come with attaining this education pale in comparison to the discoveries that are made."

-Aspen Eggimann, Junior, Pocatello, Idaho

"George Wythe University is more than a university. It is a belief that there is a goodness in the world, that there is truth to be found, that there is a right and a wrong, and that I can change the world by changing myself."

-Jodie Palmer, M.A. Education, Class of 2002, Salt Lake City, Utah

“I left behind a four-year, full-tuition National Merit Scholarship at [a prestigious private university] to come to George Wythe University, and it has changed my life. It’s made the difference between mediocrity and excellence.”

-Leslie Ure Baxter, Class of 1998, Blackfoot, Idaho

"In [Istanbul], I conferenced with a number of United Nations Delegates, and was successful in promoting the pro-family agenda in an extremely positive manner...George Wythe is preparing me and others to change the world."

-Jerami Pack, Twin Falls, Idaho

“Before attending George Wythe University, I was fairly close-minded and unaware of what was possible through education. I just wanted to find a job. GWU helped me to realize that life has much greater meaning. It opened my eyes and awakened my mind to see the possibilities of helping other people, improving the world, and moving the cause of liberty. It helped me to see relationships and patterns that I was completely ignorant of before. I see the world through completely different eyes. I now feel a deep sense of meaning that I hadn’t felt before.”

-David Crowther, Class of 2008, Cedar City, Utah
 

"[Our daughter] has had so many opportunities to be in front of groups, teach, speak and travel with George Wythe University that she is poised and competent in any situation."

-Mary Ann Johnson, Parent, Billings, Montana
