Many Opportunities
Western understands its students, our university is designed for students to make their education what they want it to be. Our flexible course offerings with online and in person choices allows for me to balance music, work, and classes while still having time to volunteer in my community or spend time with my family. I'm so thankful to have found Western, it never fails to grant me with opportunities.

Just Hired!
I think the single most important thing I learned at WIU was networking and how to be personable with everyone I interact with. I think that is a skill commonly overlooked that is very important. The networking and leadership opportunities I gained from WIU were invaluable and I will forever be grateful. Both of my majors helped me in several different ways. LEJA helped me with learning the basics of government including valuable ethical skills I use every day. Sociology helped me key in on my writing and research skills along with understanding societal issues that I help constituents with every day. In the end, both of my programs helped develop me to easily be able to integrate into the professional workforce.
