2020 is a landmark year for the University of Northwestern Ohio as it celebrates its Centennial anniversary.

In honor of the start of 2020, UNOH will be hosting an invitation-only Opening Ceremonies event on Wednesday, January 15, 2020 from 3:00pm to 5:00pm at the UNOH Event Center’s Presidential Hall located at 1450 N. Cable Rd. Lima, OH.

The Opening Ceremonies will begin with a cocktail and hors d’oeuvre hour at 3:00pm with the program beginning at 4:00pm. UNOH President Dr. Jeffrey A. Jarvis will address the audience of current and past employees, dignitaries, and special guests to include the Chancellor of the Ohio Department of Higher Education, Randy Gardner, Ohio State Senator Matthew Huffman, and various pillars of business and industry in the region. The program will also include a video presentation and a few proclamations and resolutions.

Founded in 1920, in downtown Lima, UNOH, formerly known as the Northwestern School of Commerce, focused solely on Business Administration and secretarial degrees. In the 1970s, the school began to offer technical training in the Automotive and Diesel fields. In 1992, the school made history by launching the first High Performance Motorsports Degree Program in the world. From there, the growth and expansion took off. Collegiate athletics was brought back to campus, the number of students educated in any given year tops 4,000, and UNOH has taught students from all 50 states and 61 countries in its history.
