Otterbein's Historic Committments

Student Success & Career Development

🏫 Otterbein's Historic Committments

WE ARE not afraid to do what’s right.

We never have been.

Since its founding in 1847, Otterbein has been recognized for its pace-setting ideals. Otterbein’s first two graduates were women and that two of the University’s founders were actively engaged as a Westerville stop on the Underground Railroad.

Innovative. Inclusive. Intentional.

This is what tradition means to Otterbein.

- Our commitment to inclusion, equality and diversity.

- Our nationally ground-breaking Integrative Studies curriculum.

- Our standing as one of the first in the nation to give students a voice and a vote in institutional decision-making.

- Our commitment to experiential learning.

- Our long-standing values in serving and advancing the greater good.

We have been living our values since our doors first opened.
