Communication

The Seattle campus of the University of Washington covers 643 acres, hosts over 27,000 faculty and staff, and more than 43,000 students, a fourth of those students are graduate or professional students. Uniting the many individuals and groups with interests in climate science on campus, as well as those from affiliated groups such as NOAA, is one of the challenges of the UW Program on Climate Change.

There are several mechanisms that the PCC employs to communicate with you.

  • Our newsletter provides you with general information and links to upcoming climate-activities, introduces climate-related initiatives and new faces on campus.
  • Our calendars provide a quick look at upcoming and past climate and outreach activites. The "climate calendar" lists PCC and other campus events with a climate focus, if your group has an event that should be listed, send the information to uwpcc@u.washington.edu; the "outreach calendar" lists speaker or participant requests and who has filled the request.
  • New, with the launch of this website is the ability to include all of you in the communication process. As a member of the PCC community, you are invited to participate in what the director has called a "social experiment"; you can add climate events to the calendar, describe your research interests, upload your latest research findings, and more.
  • There are several internal discussion/communication sites available. The PCC Board and Outreach groups have passworded sections with information specific to their needs.
