Western Carolina University Top Questions

I consider the best thing about Western is I get a feeling of family. It is a relatively small campus and not a large population (~9,000 students). I like the outdoor programs they offer and the academic programs they have. Sport Management is hard to find in a school, and Western has it, so they scored major points with me. The faculty really care about their students and its easy to make friends on campus. Western Carolina is also very close to the Great Smokies and hiking trails.

Even though it is a full size university, the instructors are still very helpful outside of class. This is extremely comforting knowing that you can personally speak to the instructors after class about confusing subjects.

The people re the best thing about this school, and they are also the only reason i have for continuing at this school. If the people had transferred i would transfer without a doubt. Our campus community is very strong and close. We get along with most of the professors but as for the administration it sounds like a war.
