Welcome Incoming Fall 2026 Threshers!
You have officially begun your journey at Bethel College, your Passport to Possibilities,
and this is a moment we do not take lightly. As you step into this new chapter, know
that your experience here is about more than earning credits; it’s about collecting
meaningful experiences that will shape who you are becoming.
At Bethel College, we are deeply committed to creating an environment where you
feel seen, supported, and inspired. This is a community that embraces you fully and
invites you into a culture of belonging, growth, and purpose. The faculty and staff are
confident in your ability to succeed, not just academically, but holistically.
Your passport will be stamped not only in the classroom, but through leadership
opportunities, student organizations, meaningful connections, and moments that
challenge and transform you. We encourage you to explore boldly, ask questions
freely, and engage intentionally. These experiences will become the foundation of your
story.
Choosing Bethel College means choosing possibility. My team and I are dedicated to
ensuring that this journey becomes one of your most impactful decisions. As you
move through your academic path, remember to find balance, take time to renew,
reflect, and realign yourself daily.
Collect the moments. Embrace the journey. Become the example.
Again, welcome, and let’s make it unforgettable.
Roll on Threshers,
MeShonya M. Wren-Coleman, Ph.D.
