Search committee chair Francisco Rios is pleased to announce that the Executive Director of the Institute for Global Engagement Search Committee has concluded its review and evaluation of the applications and has selected three strongly qualified candidates to invite to campus for interviews beginning Aug. 12. Information about the candidates is below, along with the schedule for the forums open to the campus community. The finalists’ resumes are available for review – please contact Jenny Sidwell.
Since 2008, Western EHS has taken additional steps to monitor the campus’ drinking water. While there is no federal law requiring universities to test their drinking water, Western determined it in the best interest of the campus community to test priority sites on campus.
Western’s Drinking Water Management Program covers all campus buildings with many locations already having been sampled.
The events that transpired during the past week in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio reiterate the fact that no community is safe from atrocities borne of hatred, racism, provocative media and divisive politics that feed off of xenophobic fears.
Campus Community,
We want to notify you of an upcoming road closure that may affect your commute to campus. On August 8th starting at 8:00 AM ending at 11:00 AM, the north and south lanes of South College Drive will be partially shut down. The tennis courts, baseball fields and all-purpose field access will be maintained through East College Way from the north.
Thank you for your understanding and patience while we work towards improving students’ lives at Western Washington University.
Pursuant to a Presidential Proclamation, Acting Governor Cyrus Habib hereby directs that Washington State and United States flags at all state agency facilities be lowered to half-staff immediately, in memory of the victims of the tragedy in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio.
Flags should remain at half-staff until close of business or sunset on Thursday, August 8, 2019.
Please notify all of your field offices and facilities around the state.
Other government entities, citizens and businesses are encouraged to join this recognition.
Laurie Trautman, the Director of WWU’s Border Policy Research Institute (BPRI), has been appointed a two year position as a Global Fellow with the Woodrow Wilson Center.
