The Douglas campus is housed in a new campus building which was built with funds from a successful special tax campaign in Converse County. EWC’s Associate Degree in Nursing program began at the Douglas Campus in August 2016 with a class of 14 students. This was the first nursing program to open in Wyoming in nearly 30 years.
