We are excited to update you on new and expanded services and options available through the UW Title IX Office.

There is much to explore at the university, like the Makerspace, Husky Commons lounge, and the University Y. The campus community is committed to enriching the student experience, and I want to introduce you to several services.

Tacoma students, faculty, and staff are invited to attend one of three Engagement Sessions Thursday, October 10 to provide ideas to inform the forthcoming update to the UW Tacoma campus master plan:

The Board of Regents and the Presidential Search Advisory Committee (PSAC) are currently seeking input from the University community to shape the leadership profile that PSAC will use to evaluate and rank candidates for the board’s consideration and selection.

From September 15 to October 15, National Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates the histories, traditions, cultures and countless contributions to society made by Hispanic Americans whose ancestors came from Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America.

Welcome to the 2024-2025 academic year! Each fall, we have an opportunity to renew our commitment to creating a welcoming, collaborative campus together as students, staff, and faculty, along with community partners.

I am pleased to report that work has progressed according to plan and we are on track to switch from generators to the main power source on Tuesday. Please plan for the campus to be in suspended in-person operations all day on Tuesday 8/6.

Our plans for moving from phase 1 (generator power) to phase 2 (reconnection to the power grid) are coming together and work is underway. The switch from phase 1 to 2 requires advanced preparation, as well as another day of suspended operations.

Thanks to the tireless, diligent work of so many people, we are well on the way to reopening this Monday (7/22)! I am pleased to provide an update, as well as important details to assist us in preparing for returning to campus.

By now, you have likely seen the emergency update. Due to a power outage caused by a vehicle accident, campus buildings including the University YMCA Student Center, are currently closed through July 20 and possibly longer.
