Greetings and welcome to Eastern Mennonite University in 2024! I am glad you are here, and I believe your precious time among us at EMU will be filled with significant academic, spiritual, and social growth.

At EMU we “Lead Together” in this formative season for you. Our mission is unwavering. We are committed to "prepare students to serve and lead in a global context" in the spirit of Micah 6:8: "to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God."

Our faculty and staff will inspire and challenge you to take seriously our values of Christian discipleship, service, community, peace, and global engagement. You will grow in wisdom, faith, and compassion as you meet people from different cultures and with unique life experiences. You will make new friends for life as you prepare for a future career. You will leave a legacy as you shape our community in powerful and positive ways.

May God be present as you discover your gifts, discern your calling, and journey with us in the years ahead. 

Blessings to you,


Susan Schultz Huxman, Ph.D.
President, Eastern Mennonite University
