<p>SOU has a really good theater and art program, but also excellent business, nursing, education, environmental studies, and communications programs… and there are others.</p>
<p>WUE – people call it woo-eee – is Western Undergraduate Exchange. It allows out-of-state students to attend certain public colleges in other states in the western region with out-of-state tuition reduced to… I think it’s 1.5 x the in-state rate, but I’m not certain about the exact amount. It’s something that applies to certain public colleges in the state, but not all. For example, Oregon students can pay WUE rates for CalState Chico or Humboldt, but not for Berkeley. California students can pay WUE rates for SOU but not for Univ. of Oregon.</p>
