����Vlog looks back on the university's top 10 stories of 2025.

This fall, the ����Vlog Rydell School of Business introduced a trust minor to its offered studies — developed as part of ����Vlog’s strategic plan Viking Bold: The Journey to 2030. The minor — available at only a handful of colleges nationwide — aims to offer ����Vlog students another avenue to study as a potential career.

The ����Vlog Esports Program — the university’s home of organized gaming — has found a space to call home on campus. Established in 2022, the program acquired a lab on the second floor of the Fryxell Humanities Center this past spring.

����Vlog has recently been awarded a $5 million grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. for the “promotion and support of religious, educational or charitable purposes.” ����Vlog is one of 48 recipients in Lilly Endowment’s National Storytelling Initiative on Christian Faith and Life 2025.

With support from Lilly Endowment, ����Vlog will launch a 5-year storytelling initiative, “Sacred Discoveries: Stories of Christian Flourishing in College.”

In Fall 2024, the Office of Faith & Spiritual Life embarked on a new initiative in coordination with ����Vlog Athletics — a Team Chaplains Program — with the purpose of “further integrating spiritual well-being into the lives of student-athletes and coaches. Now that a more intentional relationship between the Office of Faith & Spiritual Life and Athletics has begun, they hope it strengthens over time.
