Women of Ohio Wesleyan

About WOW

Started in 2016, Women of Ohio Wesleyan (WOW) has grown into a signature event for Ohio Wesleyan engaging and bringing together OWU women of all ages, backgrounds, and lifestyles. WOW celebrates being in a community with other leading women of Ohio Wesleyan, learning and sharing from each other and walking away with fresh perspectives and new or stronger friendships. WOW creates meaningful connections with Ohio Wesleyan and each other, leading to greater engagement, opportunities for networking, mentorship, and philanthropic support.

WOW Mentorship Program

Being part of the WOW community also provides time for personal or professional development including networking and mentorship with other WOW women. The goal of the mentorship program is to pair interested women together with the expectation that individuals will connect a minimum of three times to explore a career interest, professional development and/or guidance,  or personal growth in a safe and collaborative space. Interested in becoming a WOW mentor or mentee? Check back soon to join!
