Students develop the capacities to recognize and evaluate underlying assumptions and values; to work effectively with others through collaboration, team work, and community-building; to participate in deliberation for effective decision-making, and to develop listening, visual, technological, and information literacy - all knowledge and skills that are imperative for a quality life in the 21st century.

Wittenberg's communication program offers students a solid core curriculum and depth in one or more major areas complemented by a strong foundation in the liberal arts. The student experience also places high priority on providing every student with hands-on learning opportunities and internships. This experience produces graduates who are well prepared for both life and work.
The personalized environment also prepares students to embrace experiential learning opportunities, from working with digital media and professional projects through the Communication and Business Leadership Experience (C.A.B.L.E.) to working on the student-run newspaper, The Torch, the student-run radio station, WUSO 89.1-FM, and tutoring in the Oral Communication or Writing Center.
