Wolves talk about their time at WOU
Ellen Moore ’20
“My favorite thing about WOU is the small class sizes! It’s no secret that smaller class sizes allow you to get to know your peers and professors better, but it also does a really good job of making me feel comfortable and even excited to go to class!”

“I chose Western Oregon University because it has one of the top education programs in the nation. My time here has been just incredible.”
