The College integrates liberal arts and professional education in creative ways, empowering all members of our international community to become lifelong learners, achieve success in their chosen careers and promote justice and peace in a constantly changing global society. WARTBURG COLLEGE LORET RUPPE SCHOLARSHIPS Wartburg traces its roots to 1852, when Pastor Wilhelm Löhe of Neuendettelsau, Bavaria, sent Pastor Georg Grossmann to America to work as a missionary of the Lutheran faith. With five students, Grossmann founded a teacher-training school for German immigrants in Saginaw, Mich. Today, Wartburg College helps students discover and claim their callings—connecting their learning with faith and values, their understanding of themselves and their gifts, their perspective on life and the future, and the opportunities for participating in church, community, and the larger society in purposeful and meaningful ways. GEORGIA COLLEGE ASSISTANTSHIPS As Georgia's public liberal arts university, Georgia College offers undergraduate programs of study to talented and motivated students in a residential college setting. Georgia College also provides, at multiple locations, graduate and professional studies that support the needs of the region and create pathways to individual success and personal fulfillment.
