The Rollie Williams International Center at West Liberty University organizes weekly activities and events for all of our international students. The transportation services offered are meant for our international students to be able to attend classes at the Highlands Center and have the opportunity to take care of their shopping/pharmacy/administrative needs during their study here at WLU. In the event that other West Liberty Students wish to join an event where university transportation is required, please contact the International Center. Priority for Class/Shopping will go first to International Students with classes, then by international students by date/time of registration and then other domestic West Liberty students as space permits. Please register below in the Upcoming Events for our Programs and Activities:
