What a joyous and historic celebration! 🏛️✨

On Oct. 7, our campus community, alumni and global partners gathered to officially inaugurate Dr. Meghan Simpkins as Jessup University’s seventh president.

From honoring our humble beginnings in 1939 to looking ahead with tremendous expectation, the day was a beautiful testament to our theme: “Rooted in the Word. Ready for the World.” President Simpkins cast a bold vision to expand access to Christ-centered education for the generations to come.

Every generation of the Jessup family has been called to steward this university for the generation that follows. ✨

In 1939, William and Carrie Jessup opened classes for just 14 students to dedicate this institution to biblical education and preparation for Christian service. More than eight decades later, that firm foundation gives us the confidence to step boldly into our future.

As we prepare to inaugurate President Meghan Simpkins as our seventh president, we are embracing a renewed vision to expand access to Christ-centered higher education through innovation and meaningful partnerships.

As Rachael Gelsinger, chair of the Jessup University Board of Trustees, shares: "This inauguration is an opportunity to celebrate God's faithfulness to Jessup across generations and to look with tremendous expectation toward the future."

Discover more about President Simpkins and her thoughts about Christian higher education at jessup.edu/inauguration.
