Our Vision

The Pipeline Project will strengthen its powerful connections to students, faculty, staff, and community partners.

The Project will offer K-12 outreach opportunities to every UW undergraduate who desires them and will nurture and support all UW students who initiate their own local, regional, and international K-12 educational projects.

The Project will help UW departments and units seeking closer connections to the K-12 experience to implement them.

Regarding the community, the Project will ensure strong, vital, and reciprocal relationships with K-12 school and community partners who value such relationships.

The work of the Pipeline Project will function as a tiered mentoring system, where Project staff mentor upper level undergraduates, who mentor entering undergraduates, who, in turn, mentor K-12 students.

In this tiered system, “diversity” is not mentioned as a vision or a goal, because it is infused into every aspect of staffing, recruitment, and programming at the Pipeline Project.
