Wayne State University Top Questions

Describe your favorite campus traditions.

Jolene

Culturally, Wayne State is best known for being in the heart of Detroit. On campus there is a juxtaposition of poverty and wealth. Across the street from campus in one direction lies the Detroit Institute of Arts. In another direction there lies an abandoned building that looks as though it should be condemned. This creates a fantastic opportunity to bring education and light to an otherwise dark city.
