Simpson College has collaborated with several community groups to plan a celebration of the first George Washington Carver Day on February 1, as proclaimed by Governor Reynolds. Included in the celebration activities will be period actors in 4 of our shops bringing to life our Square in the late 1800s. The list of activities is detailed in the link and will end at West Hill Brewery with the unveiling of "Peanut Genius" porter, a social gathering from 4-6pm and toast to Carver at 5:30. Please join us in learning about Simpson's most famous student and citizen of Indianola.

Simpson College serves the diverse communities of the Midwest and the nation by providing academic and co-curricular programs designed to educate students of all ages and backgrounds.
