Welcome to the Autumn 2023 quarter! This time of the academic year is always exciting as I enjoy welcoming both our new and returning students back to campus. As you participate in the various Welcome Days activities and settle into the quarter, you will quickly sense that UW Tacoma is a campus community fully devoted to your support, engagement, and success.

As part of that support, I am pleased to announce a new service available to all UWT students. Student Legal Services (SLS), funded through the generosity of the Services and Activities Fee Committee, provides free 40-minute consultation sessions on legal matters via Zoom or in-person at the SLS office on the UW Seattle campus. SLS also offers low-cost legal representation for students. (SLS cannot provide representation in matters where the opposing party is another UW student or entity.)

Please visit the SLS website to learn more about the full scope of services and the process for setting an appointment. You are also welcome to contact Tanya Fekri, Director of Student Legal Services, at slsuw@uw.edu. 

Have an enjoyable Autumn quarter, and I look forward to seeing you around campus.
