| Each
year, Washington State University and the University of Washington
award degrees to more than 14,000 highly educated graduates, attract
nearly a billion dollars in research funding from outside the state,
and create scientific discoveries and technological advances that
fuel the growth of the new economy.
In
the current economic climate, forward momentum at our two research
universities
is critically important to our state as a whole. But
the state’s investment in higher education has been declining
for years, putting our economic future in jeopardy. This site,
along with its counterpart at Washington State University, has been created
to educate and inform citizens about decisions that will have implications
for our children and grandchildren. We hope that through this site and
other information you will become engaged and informed and let
your voice be heard.
