We just celebrated our 2016 graduating classes and now it is time to continue planning for the future of our campus. The incoming class for the fall 2016 quarter is expected to be the largest to date. At UW Bothell, our enrollment has doubled since 2010.

UW Bothell will increase its minimum wage for all workers to $13 an hour in January and to $15 an hour in January 2017. The increase also includes student workers.

I will hold my first campus town hall meeting of the fall quarter at 9 a.m. on Thursday, Oct. 15 in the North Creek Events Center.

The offices of the chancellor, vice chancellors and many administrative personnel have moved to the Village at Beardslee Crossing.
