Strange to find my alma mater on TripAdvisor. Lovely school....campus is growing by leaps and bounds. With all the changes that the University is undergoing, the sky is the limit with this school.

The nicely landscaped hilltop campus offers beautiful viewsof the surrounding valley and downtown Bowling Green. It's a doable walk to and from downtown Bowling Green shops and restaurants as well.

We were in Bowling Green, KY for educational seminars the first week in June, 2013. This was the perfect place to hold these classes. The classrooms were very well appointed with plenty of chairs and tables to acommodate all of the students that came for the 9 day classes. The staff at the various buildings was very helpful and courteous... More

We visited Western's campus for a tour with my teenage daughter who was looking at colleges. We had a wonderful tour, even though it rained-they had a shuttle take us everywhere, and my daughter was so impressed, she decided on WKU then and there!

The campus is lovely--very new, for the most past. This campus is expanding, so it has a lot of activities. Check the website, see what's going on, and pay a visit.

Built on top of a hill (ah, yes, The Hilltoppers), expect to have a physically-challenging campus tour as you walk around. Active construction of student center presently and alumni facilities.

They have a great softball program. The campus is very clean. Some construction improvements going on. Parking continues to be a problem for visitors and students and the campus police take advantage of that situation with tickets.
