Tracy Caldwell, a campus safety dispatcher with University of Washington Bothell and Cascadia College and a 35-year UW employee, has died.

School of STEM Assistant Professor of Physics Joey Shapiro Key will be a panelist at the AAAS annual meeting to share her work in helping research and communicate a discovery that proved Einstein’s general theory of relativity.

For the 2016-2017 academic year, the University reports 820 new first-year students, 858 new transfer students and a total student population of 5,735. Nine out of 10 are from the state of Washington. More than 90 percent of first year students.

At a free speech forum of more than 100 people, diversity leaders reaffirmed the University of Washington Bothell’s commitment to build an inclusive and supportive community. In another development, an online bias response form has been created on the campus diversity website and is now live.

University of Washington Bothell’s Husky Herald newspaper, Clamor literary journal and UWave radio are all produced and edited by students with faculty advice and distributed free to the campus community.
