ISS STUDENT JEREMIAH CRUZ RECEIVES OSHER REENTRY SCHOLARSHIP

"Being awarded the Osher Reentry Scholarship means a lot of things to me. It recognizes the hard work I have put in since coming back to the University of Washington. It also gives me a lot of pride to show that people in my situation can go back to school and complete their degree."

ISS STUDENT ANTHONY BEY ADDRESSES G2i2 SUMMIT AT UNITED NATIONS

“I thank my lucky stars that I’m here in this program. I couldn’t have scripted it better…I’m traveling all over the world presenting about this new platform that we are building to inspire people to take action around climate change, and all of the sudden here I am doing my ISS homework, and I’m like ‘Wait, I know this. I’m doing this!”

ISS WELCOMES DR. TIMEKA TOUNSEL TO THEMATIC AREAS FACULTY

"As someone who approaches education as social justice praxis, becoming an instructor with ISS is a natural fit for me. I've seen first hand how relevant coursework and degree completion can enrich lives, so I'm thrilled to join the community of scholar-educators who serve the hardworking students enrolled in this program."
