Visiting Instructor of Anthropology Katharine Davis and a group of students have spent the summer working on an archaeological dig project The Speaker’s House located right up the road from Ursinus College in Trappe
APEX at Ursinus is a transformative new learning ecosystem combining academic Inquiry with real-world experiences. Nearly $10M in commitments from donors have been made to date for APEX implementation, which begins in fall 2025.
For the first time in the college’s history, students embarked on a study-abroad trip to Mexico to learn about global health while exploring the Yucatán Peninsula.
The restoration of the centuries-old Speakers House—once an Ursinus College residence hall—in neighboring Trappe is a passion project decades in the making for historian Lisa Minardi ’04. And she has some help from aspiring Ursinus archaeologists.
