Student Spotlight
"Western has played such a large part in my life, it is difficult to believe that I attended school there for two short years. From the outside looking in, it may appear like just a small school, but Western, the people, and the town of Rock Springs all have a special ability to make it tough to leave. I say this because I have been fortunate to have made some life-long relationships with people that I met during my time at Western. Being a student and an athlete at Western taught me more about myself than I could have ever imagined. It played a key part in my growth as an athlete and more importantly in my growth as a man and I will be forever appreciative of that."Read More Great Stories
