Message from Student Engagement
Dear Students,
The assault on democracy at our nation’s Capitol 1-6-21 left many of us scared, confused and a myriad of other feelings. As we all continue to process this information, Student Engagement is committed to making sure you’re aware of events and resources available to you. We have created a webpage that contains additional information and testimonials from WOU students regarding this event.
At the heart of our work in Student Engagement is a commitment to you and success in your journey at WOU. Thank you for being at WOU and continuing to engage with us.
