Viterbo University will be closed Tuesday, Dec. 24–Wednesday, Jan. 1. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Logan Bjerkos, a senior social work major at Viterbo University, admits she was worried about the cost of attending college when she was considering where to study.

“I was terrified going into college, thinking about how I was going to afford this,” she said. “But Viterbo worked really well with all of the financial aid, the grants and scholarships.”

Gregory Cano is from Palatine, Ill., and has dreamed of becoming an engineer since he was a high school freshman.

Cano is now a sophomore engineering major at Viterbo University and is well on the way to making that dream a reality. He hopes to eventually work in mechanical engineering, but is enjoying the broad focus of his engineering studies at Viterbo.

Hannah Krause is studying biochemistry at Viterbo University and looking forward to a career in research, and perhaps one day working to alleviate the suffering of cancer patients, and maybe even finding a cure.

Krause says it’s unlikely there’ll ever be a single “cure” for cancer, as each case is different, but she’s determined to play her part in the battle against the disease.
