    This review is a campus walk-around only. I have no insight to the workings of the university. My high school age niece wanted to visit the university and see the campus. Overall, it's a lovely campus. Open space, plenty of greens, art work throughout the campus, a rose garden, and a view of the water on the far end. Visually, it looks pretty good. The campus itself is fairly old, since the end of 1800's. Some of the buildings show its age on the inside. We didn't go into too many. The library building and its reading room are quite nice. Most of the buildings are the older, low height buildings. My niece pointed to one of the old white ceramic water fountains that even I haven't seen for a long time. She's never seen one. We spoke with someone in the admissions office and picked up some brochures. We also learned the basics for in-state tuition, one year with proof of residency, such as utility bill and driver's license.

    What a truly terrific place. I loathe who I may have become, had I not chosen to go here versus the alternatives. A fantastic school - with a beautiful campus, strong academic programs, a geographic area with so much to do (hiking, skiing, mountainbiking, wakeboarding, etc), and an awesome town - Bellingham! Since my attendance here, I have lived in 4 other states, spent lengths of time in 14 countries - and I can still say with all sincerity, some of my fondest memories lie with WWU and vicinity. If you are looking at Universities to attend, with the exception of a specific program that might not be offered, you are making a major mistake by not attending this institution. MAJOR.

    I have my gripes, but only because I got a C in political theory. I suppose I should take that up with the professor though. The campus food is gross, the tuition is hiking, the dorms are nothing to write home about... but the university(academics) itself is pretty fantastic. That's the real reason why I'm there anyway. The programs and departments are small, and the student:professor ratio is not something you'd see at your typical public university. While I can't speak for their masters programs, I can say that my undergrad studies had truly been an exceptional experience. Your college years are really what you make of it, places like Western Washington University... makes it hard for them to suck.

    Campus looks beautiful, rich greenery and brick buildings. Red Square is the central campus. Close to I5.

    Promises much, offers little. A total rip off for out of state students.
