We would like to extend a warm welcome from the College of the Environment Student Advisory Council to all the returning students and those incoming to the UW for the first time. The Student Advisory Council acts as a liaison between the students (You!) and the Dean’s office of the College of the Environment. We act as the representatives for the Program on the Environment and other departments in relaying issues from the student community to the Dean as well as reaching out to the student community on behalf of the Dean’s Office. Please feel free to contact us with any issues or suggestions on how to improve the student experience in the College of the Environment. We wish you the best in the new academic year!
