Wesleyan University is a founding partner of the Research & Education Station at Manresa Wilds (R.E.S.A.) in Norwalk, CT, alongside Manresa Island Corp., and four other institutions. The mission is to turn the 125-acre Manresa Wilds site into a "living lab" for coastal research, environmental stewardship, and place-based education.

So far at Wesleyan, there have been seven undergraduate and graduate courses that have engaged in interdisciplinary studies of Manresa. Courtney Fullilove, professor of history, has also led the Manresa Stories Oral History Project, in which students are documenting the human and industrial history of the island. https://bit.ly/4fvylo6

Shakur Collins '26 became the first student to graduate from the Center for Prison Education's (CPE) new Bachelor of Liberal Studies Completion Scholars program at the 194th Commencement Ceremony. “Shakur’s graduation as Wesleyan’s inaugural CPE BLS Degree Completion Scholar is enormously meaningful for our program and our wider student and alumni community—not simply as an individual achievement, but as ‘proof of concept’ for a path we have long hoped could exist more fully for formerly incarcerated students seeking to continue their education after release,” said Tess Wheelwright, director of CPE.
