Hi guys! I've seen Western Illinois University mentioned a few times on this subreddit, but can't seem to find information on its location. Can anybody help me out? Thanks so much!
Sure, I'd be happy to help you out! Western Illinois University (WIU) has two campuses. The main campus is located in Macomb, Illinois, and the second campus, known as the WIU-Quad Cities campus, is in Moline, Illinois. Macomb is a small town situated in the western part of the state, approximately 75 miles southwest of Peoria, IL and around 210 miles southwest of Chicago, IL. Moline is located northwest of Macomb, close to the border of Illinois and Iowa, and is part of the Quad Cities metropolitan area, which also includes Davenport and Bettendorf in Iowa, and Rock Island in Illinois. I hope this helps you locate Western Illinois University!
