A brief description of the themed semester, year, or first-year experience:
Under the leadership of former Provost Phyllis Wise, NEXT CITY: Sustainable Urbanization served as a University-wide theme between 2009 and 2011 to focus attention on the University of Washington’s urban teaching, research, and outreach activities. Cities and their people are the emphasis of major university lecture series, seminars, cultural and education events, and public roundtables on the challenges and opportunities of urbanization. New research initiatives, courses, and partnerships with the community brought together Washingtonians and others in discovering more about the twenty-first century’s urban age.
