Ever wish you lived during the age of dinosaurs? If so, the Burke Museum’s DinoFest on June 5 might be the perfect event for you.
・・・
"The Burke Museum, located on the northwest corner of campus near the Ave, will host DinoFest on June 5 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Fossils that aren’t usually showcased on the museum floor will be visible to patrons, and Burke paleontologists will be set up in labs to demonstrate fossil preparation.

“Dinos always get the most attention so we will have everyone’s favorite fossils on display, including the only dinosaur bone found in Washington state, our famous Tufts Love T-Rex skull, and recent triceratops finds,” Andy Clark, the Burke’s youth and family programs manager, said. “Also, our new discovery of the chicken from hell — Anzu dinosaur — will be featured.”

For those who have younger siblings or want to take kids to the DinoFest event, the lower lobby will be filled with kids games, fossil dig pits, a puppet theater, and touchable fossils."

Last spring, international Ph.D. student Susan Hou and other Ph.D. students established International Pride to address the need for an intersectional approach to queerness.
・・・
"UW is recognized as one of the best colleges for queer students; it is also home to nearly 8,000 international students. Susan Hou, an international Ph.D. student studying learning sciences, recognized that. Despite how welcoming UW is to queer and international students, there are few services that address both identities.

“I definitely wanted to move to the U.S., because I thought it was a freer place for me to explore my identity,” Hou said. “I knew that [my identity] was queer while I was in Taiwan, and I didn't feel safe to continue exploring myself in Taiwan.”

Taiwan is one of the only countries in East Asia to have legalized same-sex marriage, and is often portrayed as a welcoming place for the LGBTQIA+ community. Hou’s experience, however, showed that the reality of queer acceptance was far more nuanced than the legal code."
