The Wiley University Hall of Fame honors alumni whose journeys began at Wiley University and whose achievements continue to inspire future generations. This recognition celebrates individuals who exemplify the values, excellence, and impact that define the Wiley University legacy—both during their time as students and throughout their lives beyond the University.
