Veritas, utilitas and fidelitas are the Latin words that surround the Bible symbol on Anderson University’s School of Nursing pin. The words stand for truth, service and faith; all of which the faculty of AU believes is the basis of what nursing students should build their foundation on when beginning their career as a registered nurse.
Anderson University held its first AU Scholars’ Day on April 27. The event featured over 25 students’ work from their specific academic departments as poster presentations in Reardon Lobby with art students presenting at Wilson Gallery.

Although her hometown is more than two hours north in Ligonier, Anderson University student Alyssa Schermerhorn thinks of Anderson as home too.
The college junior has spent much of the last three years in Anderson, so she decided last year to give back to the city by forming Operation Foundation, an organization aimed at cleaning up Anderson neighborhoods. Headquartered this year at the Geater Center, Operation Foundation is in the midst of its second annual week of service.
Growing up most children are taught to do as many activities as possible by themselves. Feeding, brushing their teeth and interacting with others are all abilities taught at a young age, to mature and develop as a child gets older. However, there are many people who do not possess these simple skills due to developmental disabilities.

It's an interesting title for the annual exhibition and thesis readings for Anderson University’s art and design students: “(id)entity.”
According to exhibit information, the word “identity” is thus split into two: “id,” the part of the personality dealing with basic drives, and “entity,” that which we are. When the two combine into art, they form an “identity.”
