Pioneers Save $81,623 with Western's OER initiative

We are thrilled to announce that Western's OER initiative is making a huge impact this spring semester! Thanks to the dedication of our incredible faculty and the Open Educational Resources (OER) initiative by OSRHE, we've managed to eliminate textbook costs for many courses.

What does this mean for students? We've saved our students $81,623 this semester! Now, accessing course materials won't burn a hole in your pocket.

A big shoutout to our faculty for their hard work in adopting OER, contributing to a more affordable and accessible education for everyone.
