Our Community, Our Experience
Valpo works hard to give back to our community because our community gives so much to Valpo. Getting away from campus to hang out at cafés, shop at boutiques, or experience all the wonderful things Valparaiso has to offer is a major part of what makes coming to Valparaiso University an experience that lasts a lifetime.
