"The Best Relatively Cheap University You've Never Heard Of" (HINT: it's only online) - November 14, 2008
- Kathleen Kingsbury, TIME Magazine Education Reporter
"Let's not waste anyone's time or money. You won't find that phrase emblazoned on a T shirt, but it's essentially the motto of Western Governors University (WGU), a private online school that has worked hard to prove it is anything but a diploma mill…"
Western Governors University was recently featured in a TIME Magazine article, "Go Western, Young Man". The article covers a broad range of topics including a brief history of WGU, what makes WGU unique and where WGU graduates are working (and more!).
