Why we love the UW - Real stories from UW alumni

I love the UW because it changed my life, both intellectually and as a contributor to my community and the world. As a student, one of the most valuable lessons I learned was how much more I needed to learn and that learning would be life long. I still love the gorgeous surroundings--historical buildings, cherry blossoms in the spring, the fountain. All these years later (40 plus), I still love wearing my Husky purple and feel proud to be part of an institution that is dedicated to higher knowledge and all that means to making this a better world. - C.
