Wolves talk about their time at WOU
Jessica Freeman ’18
ASWOU president 2017-18 | Major: Community Health and Education
“I was sort of an expert on all the resources students have on campus like tutoring and the student health center. But what I didn’t realize was how much my professors and my academic adviser were actually there to help me. They were the ones who made all the difference in the world to me.”
Allison Yamnitsky ’17
Major: Geography, minor Geographic Information Systems
“The relationships that I’m building with professionals is invaluable. My friends at bigger colleges are not as close to their professors. It makes me more confident because my teachers know what to push me toward.”
Ryan Painter ’17
Major: Criminal Justice
“I chose WOU because of its incredible reputation for criminal justice education. Having heard about Western’s reputation made it an easy decision for me after graduating high school, and after visiting campus I knew that this was where I would be continuing my education.“
