Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We are senior citizens in the community and always enjoy our time at Willamette's campus. We never miss their Christmas choir concert, "Christmas a Hudson Hall." We often drive to Willamette U. to go for walks under the ancient trees and admire the beautifully kept grounds and brick buildings, the old architecture and the new. The many benches under the trees invite quiet relaxation or a place to eat a sack lunch. I enjoy the great collection of books in their library. We are proud to have Willamette in our midst and are grateful that we always feel welcome there.

Great and rigorous MBA program. Beautiful campus with a nice river flowing through the middle of the campus. Soccer field open for the public, but sometime could be occupied by formal matches in which a reservation might be required.

We were a Northwestern regional professional convention, and we met in several of their facilities. They were gracious and hospitable. We ate some of our meals on campus.

We arrived in the late afternoon and needed to kill time before dinner. It was so fun to watch the men's track team doing laps. When they were done, the women's team came out. One very fast female runner was practicing sprints - amazing to see young strong bodies in action!

A gorgeous campus with great ambiance and friendly faces abound. There are some good food options on campus and the grounds are always tidy. Worth a stroll anytime.

Not only that plan on having lunch at the Quad. The food is excellent and is affordably priced. Rachel Ray rated the food here very highly during her visit. It is just a short stroll to Bush Pasture Park. This is a beautiful campus across the street from the Oregon State Capitol.

Stroll through Willamette's lovely campus to discover two special gardens, the long, narrow Martha Springer Botanical Garden behind Sparks Center athletic facility and the tiny Japanese Garden on the S. side of the Arts Bldg. The Springer Garden, is an excellent place for home gardeners to see many species native to Oregon and to get inspiration for garden design. Both gardens are oases of calm near busy 12th and State Streets. Walking across campus from one garden to another is always a pleasure.
