UW President and College of the Environment Dean visit the Alaska Salmon Program
In a special update from the field, the Alaska Salmon Program shared their excitement at showing University of Washington President, Ana Mari Cauce, and College of the Environment Dean, Maya Tolstoy, around the field camps in Alaska. The Alaska Salmon Program has been running for more than 75 years, conducting research and providing hands on learning for UW students.
“We had a lot of fun showing UW President Ana Mari Cauce and UW College of the Environment Dean Maya Tolstoy why Bristol Bay is such a special place. They got to see the AERA class in action, sitting in on lectures and accompanying students, staff, and faculty to some of our study locations.”

“We observed spawning sockeye, extracted adult sockeye otoliths, and sampled juvenile coho together. Many great conversations were had about our research – why it’s important and why we love what we do – and our parallel goal of providing hands on experiential learning opportunities to UW undergrads and grad students.” – Alaska Salmon Program
