Valparaiso University’s Offices of University Marketing and University Communications help the institution communicate with one voice to clearly reflect the Valpo brand.

Connecting Campus and Community

Valparaiso University is proud to be part of the greater Valparaiso community. The shops, restaurants, opportunities, and, most importantly, the people of Valparaiso play a vital role in helping us create a college experience our students can be proud of. That’s why we’re always excited to open our campus to the community with sports, shows, and events that let you enjoy the Valpo experience with us. Check out what’s happening around campus below

Our Community, Our Experience

Valpo works hard to give back to our community because our community gives so much to Valpo. Getting away from campus to hang out at cafés, shop at boutiques, or experience all the wonderful things Valparaiso has to offer is a major part of what makes coming to Valparaiso University an experience that lasts a lifetime. Vicki Arevalo ’23 shared what she loves about the community in this segment of Amazon’s The College Tour.
