Dear alumni and friends,

Welcome to Spring 2024!  We’re enjoying some sunshine after our long PNW winter, and have lots to report in the stories listed below. 

Husky Giving Day is coming up on Thursday April 4th and this year CBE is going all in on supporting our students!  The College is excited to share that we are raising funds to support the newly created CBE Office of Student Services (OSS). OSS supports CBE students academically, professionally, and emotionally through academic advising, career mentorship, health and well-being, student events, and more.  Want to help spread the word?  Sign up to be a Champion now.

Please also Save the Date!  Chelina Odbert of Kounkuey Design Initiative will be giving our annual PAC Spring Lecture on Wednesday May 8, 2024.  The lecture will begin at 6:30pm in Architecture Hall 147 with a reception to precede at 5:30pm in the lobby.  Registration will open up on the event page in April. 

Whether visiting campus to check out the cherry blossoms peaking in the Quad or Arboretum this week, or stopping in as a guest speaker or reviewer, please knock on our doors – we would love to hear from you!

 

Sincerely,

Ken P. Yocom
