Why UW-W? There are a wide variety of reasons people will give for choosing UW-Whitewater. A few of the main ones are the good reputation of the aca- demic programs, and the placement service. When talk- ing about academic programs both students and faculty named business most often. However, many people come to Whitewater especially for the Arts, Education, or Letters and Sciences programs. In all areas the placement is high, some as high as 100 percent. The size, location and appear- ance of the campus also played a major role in most decisions to come here. Being a smaller college, a lot of people feel they can and are getting more individual atten- tion here. This also keeps the class sizes smaller and lessens the feeling of being just a statistic. For a lot of people Whitewater is within a few hours drive of their homes, so the expense of transporta- tion is relatively low. Also, many students who visited the campus before registra- tion liked the open and well- kept look of the campus.
