When I started college in the fall of 2008 I was really unsure of what my major was going to be and what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Taking the general studies classes at Missouri Western has really helps students figure out what they enjoy and want to pursue.

    I originally planned to go to Missouri Western because it was more affordable to pay out-of-state tuition there than to pay in-state tuition where I was. After I got there, Missouri Western broke the law by raising tuition on it's student's higher than the consumer price index during a tuition freeze mandated by the governor. After receiving punishment in the form of a budget cut, Missouri Western's fees skyrocketed (because that's technically not raising tuition) and instead of admitted fault, Missouri Western tried to turn the governor into a bad person when he was looking out for the student's and Missouri Western is the one who broke the law.

    I really enjoy Missouri Western State University's helpful study rooms, and encouraging professors to come in during their office hours for help. All the buildings are relatively close to one another and in walking distance. I really enjoy the library when there is multiple study rooms and quite places for isolation.
