Student Veteran Life

Memorials on Campus

The University of Washington’s history is rich with military ties. It is evident not only in our original charter and our history books, but on the physical grounds of our campus. At its entryway lies a massive dedication to the service members of World War I, World War II, and those who have received the Medal of Honor in its entry columns, memorials along Memorial drive, and the trees that adorn the road that leads to these hallowed halls of education. It is only by highlighting these rich ties that we can understand this campus as it relates to the military and its veterans.

The website will be something that will help the community learn more about the long history and connection the University has with the military and allow us to keep honoring the sacrifices that have been made by the great man and woman of the United States Armed Forces. Special thanks are extended to Lisa A. Oberg, Hyun Jun Change and the staff at Special Collections for all the support throughout the year. Additionally, thank you to the Military Science 102 Class (Winter 2017) cadets (see below).
