summer

Western is an amazing community college, so much so that I'm nervous to graduate and go onto a bigger university. At Western the class sizes are small which makes it easier to learn. Also, your advisors and teachers are always available and happy to help you. They genuinely care about you and make an honest effort to do so. In my three years at the school I have only had a bad experience with one teacher. It's truly the faculty that I am going to tremendously miss when I graduate.

Brittany

My overall opinion of Western Wyoming Community College is quite positive. The small class size and availability of the professors makes learning enjoyable and achievable. The only downsides are the lack of shopping and entertainment in the surrounding town and small dorm rooms.

Bailey

I love the performing arts department here and I love that it is a small school with small class sizes. Rock Springs is a small town and there isn't much to do outside of the school but I think the education I am getting is well worth the money I am paying and they have so many scholarship offers to help anyone who needs it! I would totally recommend coming to Western!

Rachel

It's a good school, my professors are always nice, and we have pretty high standards for the students. I don't have a huge social life, but there's always opportunities to get involved. There are small class sizes, and if you want to take a class that isn't offered, they hire professors from all over the US to let you take that class. It's really a good school.

  8. What kind of person should attend this school?

    I think that many different types of students would love to attend Purdue, because it's very easy to find your own niche or a group of people that you get along with, which is very benifical to your whole college experience. Also, there is a big variety of classes so anyone can find a class that peaks there own personal intrests. Finally, there are many a clubs, organizations, and activities out there so anyone can easily become involved in them; they often bring students in with free food, if they already havent eaten in the delicious dining courts.

  12. What's unique about your campus?

    The best thing about my school, hands down is the small classes. Being able to work one on one with a proffesor makes all the difference to me. It makes me feel more connected, involved, and gives me a feeling of support to know that the instructors know my name. It is also so much more easier to ask for help or questions with a small class.

  14. What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?

    I think that it might trouble some students at how large Purdue first seems, but you soon learn it is easy to learn your way around and its not as big as it seems. Some students who dont like venturing from home might have trouble with the distance, but there are plenty of people who are there to will help with those feelings. Also, if money is a very big issue, Purdue may be too expensive for some students. Finally, lots of the dorm/residence halls are a good walking distance from campus.

  16. What's the most frustrating thing about your school?

    The thing that I consider the most frustrating about school is the work load during exams. As a single parent of a one year old, finding the time to do all the reading is especially difficult. A college student needs to be prepared to read at least one chapter per week per class. For a full time student, taking four classes this would be about four to six chapters a week! Homework not included. Now add studying for tests (one or two in a week) and all that reading, yikes.
