  • Magazine Wouspring 2008
    Magazine WOUSpring 2008 WOU s Kevin Boss became a Super Bowl hero during his first season in the NFL. Letter from the editor Dear Alumni, Greetings from your team in The Cottage. As your new Vice President for University Advancement, I want to thank all of you for the warm welcome I have received. I consider myself very fortunate to be a part of Western Oregon University and will do everything I can on its behalf. In the short time I have been here, I have become aware of the various names that preceded “Western Oregon University.” Although WOU is the name that I connect with, perhaps many of you are more attached to “Western Oregon State College,” or maybe “Oregon College of Education.” While the names have changed, the academic community is still true to its original purpose. In addition to our mission of educating students from the great state of Oregon, we now attract the largest group ever of international students. Our university continues to attract a large percentage of students that are the first in their families to attend college, and the campus hosts one of the most ethnically diverse student populations in the state. WOU helps in creating teachers, educators, and other education related professionals. This continues to be part of our strength, and starting in the fall of 2008, we will add a nursing program to our already rich academic offerings. We are not the same institution we were 25 years ago, and we are continuing to grow in wonderful ways. Recently, a team of our students won the regional College Bowl tournament and at the end of April will head off to the national championships in Minnesota.
