Washburn Transformational Experience
The Washburn Transformational Experience is a program that was created in order to provide Washburn University students with amazing opportunities and experiences. The main objective of the WTE program is to transform students into a new kind of individual (e.g., more worldly, more knowledgeable). Students will be able to accomplish goals and experience opportunities they never dreamed possible. Each student is responsible for making their WTE experience as great and amazing as they want it to be. WTE, (Washburn Transformational Experience)A Forum of Student Creativity
