The University is comprised of three campuses: the Seattle campus is made up of sixteen schools and colleges whose faculty offer educational opportunities to students ranging from first-year undergraduates through doctoral-level candidates; the Bothell and Tacoma campuses, each developing a distinctive identity and undergoing rapid growth, offer diverse programs to both undergraduates and graduate students. The primary mission of the University of Washington is the preservation, advancement, and dissemination of knowledge. The University preserves knowledge through its libraries and collections, its courses, and the scholarship of its faculty. It advances new knowledge through many forms of research, inquiry, and discussion, and disseminates it through the classroom and the laboratory, scholarly exchanges, creative practice, international education, and public service. As one of the nation's outstanding teaching and research institutions, the University is committed to maintaining an environment for objectivity and imaginative inquiry and for the original scholarship and research that ensure the production of new knowledge in the free exchange of diverse facts, theories, and ideas. To promote students’ capacity to make humane and informed decisions, the University fosters an environment in which its students can develop mature and independent judgment and an appreciation of the range and diversity of human achievement. The University cultivates in its students both critical thinking and the effective articulation of that thinking. As an integral part of a large and diverse community, the University seeks broad representation of, and encourages sustained participation in that community by, its students, its faculty, and its staff. It serves both non-traditional and traditional students. Through its three-campus system and through educational outreach, evening degree and distance learning programs, the University extends educational opportunities to many who would not otherwise have access to them. The academic core of the University of Washington is its College of Arts & Sciences. The teaching and research of the University's many professional schools provide essential complements to the College of Arts & Sciences programs in the arts, humanities, social sciences, and natural and mathematical sciences. Programs in law, medicine, forest resources, oceanography and fisheries, library science, and aeronautics are offered exclusively (in accord with state law) by the University of Washington. In addition, the University of Washington has assumed primary responsibility for the health science fields of dentistry and public health, and offers education and training in medicine for a multi-state region of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. The schools and colleges of architecture/built environments and urban planning, business administration, education, engineering, nursing, pharmacy, public affairs, and social work have a long tradition of educating students for service to the region and the nation. These schools and colleges make indispensable contributions to the state and, with the rest of the university, share a long tradition of educating undergraduate and graduate students towards achieving an excellence that well serves the state, the region and the nation. University of Washington 2011-2013 Capital Budget Request September 1, 2010 4 University of Washington Strategic Framework UW Vision Statement The University of Washington educates a diverse student body to become responsible global citizens and future leaders through a challenging learning environment informed by cutting-edge scholarship. Discovery is at the heart of our university. We discover timely solutions to the world’s most complex problems and enrich people’s lives throughout our community, the state of Washington, the nation, and the world. University of Washington Key Strategies to Meet the Great Challenges of our Future A: Attract a diverse and excellent student body and provide a rich learning experience B: Attract and retain an outstanding and diverse faculty and staff to enhance educational quality, research strength, and prominent leadership C: Strengthen interdisciplinary research and scholarship to tackle “grand challenge” problems that will benefit society and stimulate economic development D: Expand the reach of the UW from our community and region across the world to enhance global competitiveness of our students and the region E: Maintain and build infrastructure and facilities to insure the highest level of integrity, compliance and stewardship 2011 -2013 Biennial Capital Budget Request The University of Washington’s 10-Year Capital Plan represents the University’s responsible stewardship of our existing facilities and space resources in concert with those new investments required to maintain our stature as one of the great public resources serving the citizens of the State of Washington. The UW’s Capital Budget Request is the result of multiple physical planning efforts integrated carefully with UW’s key strategies to meet the great challenges of the future. The process has been mission- driven, has required an objective search for actual needs that support the key strategies, is rigorously focused on efficient utilization of existing space resources, and proposes accelerated care for the facilities and infrastructure in the worse condition. The University of Washington’s requested capital projects will provide strong and broad employment opportunities within the Puget Sound region concurrent with preservation and enhancement of the public’s past investment in capital assets. The projects identified below, in UW priority order, are necessary to sustain our instructional mission on the UW Seattle campus, and expand the same mission on the UW Bothell and UW Tacoma campuses: Minor Capital Repair – Infrastructure, Health, and Safety: $83.32M The University of Washington requests $61.15 million of state funding and requests that $22.17 million from the UW Building Account be appropriated for minor capital preservation projects. Projects in this category are estimated to cost between $25,000 and $2 million and are University of Washington 2011-2013 Capital Budget Request September 1, 2010 5 University of Washington Strategic Framework prioritized as the most urgent of the University’s minor capital preservation needs. Sub-projects are defined within each of the following broad categories: Building Repair and Renewal, Mechanical and Electrical Systems, Fire and Life Safety Improvements, Data

  • Hutchinson Hall UW Historic Resources Addendum
    Hutchinson Hall UW Historic Resources Addendum BOLA Architecture + Planning June 8, 2012 1. INTRODUCTION Background The University of Washington is proposing to reroof portions of Hutchinson Hall, which was built in 1927 as the Women’s Physical Education Building. The building is located in the north area of campus, which dates from its establishment in the late 19th century. The proposed project will involve repairs or replacement of deteriorated, original and non-original roofing, which consists of slate and composition shingles, as well as membrane materials at built-in gutters and flat roof areas. The original roof also has copper flashing, ridge cresting, eave gutters and downspouts. Consistent with its historic preservation policies, as outlined in its “University of Washington Master Plan—Seattle Campus” of January 2003 (2003 Seattle Campus Master Plan), the University of Washington sought historic and urban design information about Hutchinson Hall in a Historic Resources Addendum (HRA). This type of report is developed for any project that makes exterior alterations to a building over 50 years old, or is adjacent to a building or a significant campus feature older than 50 years. Hutchinson Hall is subject to this requirement because of its age. An HRA is required also for public spaces identified in Fig. III-2 of the 2003 Seattle Campus Master Plan. This report provides historical and architectural information about the building, a preliminary evaluation of its historic significance to the University, information about the proposed project, and recommendations. A bibliography and list of source documents is provided at the end of the text, followed by original drawings, building plans, and historic and contemporary photographs.

  • “Boys in the Boat” - Scenes in Seattle
    “Boys in the Boat” - Scenes in Seattle Many guests visiting Seattle these days have read the recent best-selling book The Boys in the Boat: Nine Americans and their Epic Quest for Gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics by Daniel James Brown. This fascinating non-fiction book is about the University of Washington crew team that overcame great odds to get to Germany and win the 1936 Olympic gold medal. Spend an afternoon exploring north Seattle and see some highlights from the book. Drive by historic Roosevelt High School, where team member Joe Rantz graduated, walk the nearby, beautiful University of Washington (UW) campus, see the original winning shell built by George Pocock, rent a boat at the UW Waterfront Activities center during the nicer weather months, and make a stop at a local favorite, Agua Verde, for lunch or cocktails and maybe a kayak rental. University of Washington, www.washington.edu UW is also known as U-Dub to the locals. This university enrolls 45,000 students, and the main entrance is located at 17th Ave. NE and NE 45th Street. Its western border is Lake Washington and the southern border is the Montlake Cut, which is the body of water connecting Lake Washington and Lake Union, and where the UW crew team used to row. UW Waterfront Activities Center, https://www.washington.edu/ima/wac/ This building was originally a seaplane hangar built by the Navy in WWI and became the Canoe House which was where the original 1936 crew team practiced. It is now open to the public during the nicer months of the year and is used as a canoe and rental facility.
