Calling All Arts & Sciences Dawgs!
Join fellow alumni, students, friends, artists, scientists, historians, philosophers, writers and curious minds of the College of Arts & Sciences for the Alaska Airlines Dawg Dash on Sunday, October 18!
Part campus tour, part reunion, and all Dawg pride, you'll partake in a little interdisciplinary running through the heart of the UW, passing favorites like the Liberal Arts Quadrangle, Denny Hall, and the site of the future Chemical Sciences Building.
Bring your Arts & Sciences spirit and we'll bring the one-of-a-kind bandanas (picture below) for everyone who signs up to join the College's team for the 10K run, 5K run/walk, or Husky Pups Run.
