WWU's Central Health and Safety Committee shared the following resources to help individuals stay safe while adjusting to the light change with the end of daylight savings time.

Western Washington University’s Industrial Design junior class will showcase a sustainable entrepreneurship exhibition “ReMade: Culinary” from 6-9 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 2 at Ideal, located at 1227 Cornwall Ave. in Bellingham.

Products will stay on display and for sale at Ideal until Nov. 16.

In just a few weeks, each of the 12 students designed a product, sourced all the recycled and repurposed materials, produced a limited edition run of 20 of the items, and created all packaging and branding for their piece.

November 8 marks the 53rd anniversary of the signing of the 1965 Higher Education Act (HEA), which has helped millions of low-income students become the first members of their families to earn college degrees.  At Western, a first-generation student is defined as students who are the first in their family to attend university, i.e. their parents did not complete a university degree.

With a desire to create a tool lending option on campus that students and faculty could use for energy/engineering related projects, Aden Nevler, Patrick Shive, and Max Schneider wrote and submitted a grant through the Sustainable Action Fund Grant Program (now the Sustainability, Equity, and Justice Fund Grant Program). The Energy Tool Lending Library offers free access to professional equipment for research and energy related projects, while not burdening professors with the cost of providing critical materials to enhance their classes.
