“I have two primary reasons for choosing Whatcom.  First, the resources provided for all the students. I think that services such as the Learning Center, the Makerspace, the Math Center, and the Writing Center make Whatcom unique. Not all colleges help students with those resources.  Secondly, I was excited when I discovered how helpful everyone was on the campus."
