Ever feel like continuing your love of education (who are we kidding, of course you do, you work at a university!) but don’t want to take any pesky tests or pay the tuition prices they require?

Well, your chance has arrived! During Back2Bellingham weekend, from May 17 to 19, there are more than 15 “Classes without Quizzes” happening on campus from some of Western’s most loved professors.
