    This is a great school with a lot of different majors and clubs. The campus is beautiful with only about 6,000 students. The teachers are all very accommodating and helpful.

    Western is the perfect size school for someone who wants a university experience without being overwhelmed by the sheer mass of larger campuses. You will rarely be late to classes- you can run anywhere in about 5 minutes. They don't cram classes so students actualy get a chance to meet and interact with their students

    WOU is a medium-sized public university with strong programs in education, American Sign Language (ASL), the performing and visual arts, and criminal justice. The small-town environment is friendly and safe. The faculty are strong teachers who care about their students' success.

    Small school, with great class sizes. Good for staying focused on education during the week, and party during the weekend. Work hard, play hard.
