- travel and National Interest Exceptions (NIE)
- all about your I-20 - for new students and students who will be traveling to the UW for the first time
- the vaccination requirement & planning for autumn quarter
We've also created a form to collect your questions - we will be welcoming live questions during the information session, but welcome you to send your questions to us ahead of time.

Community Conversations: Age and Ageism
|
This spring, join other UW students in a series of conversations about who we are, who we want to be, and how we can better understand one another’s identities. We will center constructive, safe, and validating dialogue about different components of identity and intersectionality.
|
This session will focus on age and ageism -- How do our identities change based on our age? How do we treat others based on their age? What differences exist across cultures with respect to age?
|
We will stream the panel discussion via the CIRCLE YouTube channel so that you can participate without needing to be visible. Join the discussion at our YouTube channel:
|
There will be an anonymous online form where you can submit your questions during the event — a moderator will ask the questions to the panelists.
