Hello and welcome to the University of Washington Tacoma! It is a pleasure to greet UW Huskies, prospective Huskies, family members, and community friends.
The Division of Student Affairs is a collection of programs and services designed to assist students in their academic endeavors and extend learning beyond the classroom. More than a dozen units support student access, student success, and social mobility.
Our campus is rich in culture and community; it is a whole vibe of how we connect with one another, how we support one another, and how we collaborate and connect with the community. Our campus is smaller than all the "U-Dub" campuses, which helps solidify a sense of belonging.
Here, Huskies look out for Huskies! Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have questions, need support, or want to connect. I am here for you, and we are here for you!
Best,
Mentha Hynes-Wilson
Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs

Safe Expressive Activity at UW Tacoma
As a public university, we are firmly committed to supporting and legally bound to permit speech that falls within the broad definition of protected expression. We believe that upholding the right to free speech is not only consistent with our commitment to remaining a diverse, welcoming and inclusive community, but is, indeed, a necessary condition for cultivating and welcoming the kind of robust debate and thriving public discourse that is essential to every institution of higher learning.

A Deep Dive into Student Success
In this episode of the podcast we're joined by UW Tacoma Associate Vice Chancellor for Student Success, Bonnie Becker, and Senior Director, Student Transitions and Success, Amanda Figueroa. You may have already guessed (judging by their titles) that Becker and Figueroa do a lot of work around student success. We'll talk about what we mean when we say "student success." We'll also get into why college is important to individuals and to society. Research suggests that having a college degree impacts everything from social mobility to health. Becker and Figueroa will also outline UW Tacoma's revamped approach to student success including the importance of HIPs (no, not the thing connect to your torso).
