Activities at WCU
Connecting to campus is very important to
student success and there are a number of ways and
opportunities for students to get involved at WCU. If you are hearing from
your student that there is not a lot to do at West Chester, or
they are not sure how to get involved on-campus then please
take a look at the below links. These links to various WCU web
pages can help to give you a picture
of student life on the WCU campus, so that you can serve as a
resource for your WCU student and be able to respond when they
tell you there's nothing to do here!
