Faculty

Calling all alumni! We can't wait to welcome you back to campus for a very special celebration on Saturday, June 4, 2022! You're invited to reunite, reminisce and celebrate with your classmates, friends and family at reunion events, anniversary celebrations, learning opportunities and more!

Written by award-winning Canadian playwright, Kat Sandler, we meet a mother and daughter on the verge of total breakdown. The other member of the household is the daughter's imaginary friend she’s had forever. We also meet a boyfriend, and a couple of other wildly extraordinary folk who arrive with a crucial job to do.

The students in the Knowledge Integration program invite you to experience the culmination of our third-year design project: The Museum Course.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx.

TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxUW, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxUW, TED Talks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized.

Our theme this year is 2020 Vision.
