ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ

On October 15, 2025, the ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ celebrated the inauguration of President Robert J. Jones, who outlined is vision for advancing the UW’s public mission: expanding access to an excellent education for all students; strengthening connections with our communities; and accelerating research, discovery and innovation for the public good.

Welcome to the start of a new academic year at the ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ! Whether you’re returning to campus or, like me, just beginning your UW journey, I hope the energy of the new year fills you with excitement and purpose.

I am excited to begin the work we will do together in service of our students and the people of Washington state, which I am proud to now call home.
