Hello Huskies!

Welcome to our very first issue of this year! I hope you all had a fruitful summer full of rest and relaxation, and now ready with a fresh spirit for learning to take on this academic year.

My name is Aditi Nambiar, and I am thrilled to be back as Editor-in-Chief of The Husky Herald for my third year with our publication. I would also like to introduce you to our new Assistant Editor, Rex Correa. We are both excited to bring a diverse array of compelling stories to you this year joined by our dedicated new team of assigned student contributors and community of passionate storytellers. And we can’t wait to have you join us in this beautiful journey of discovery!

The Husky Herald is here for you to channel your voice, color with words, and bring your ideas to life through unique and inspiring stories. It can be challenging to break free from the day-to-day hustle and bustle of academic life, so I invite all my peers in our wonderful campus to explore your creativity whenever you can. Delve into your pursuits, challenge your inhibitions, and know that we are here as a space for you to explore, wonder, and share your stories.

Our campus newspaper serves as a platform for students like you to learn more about UW Bothell campus news, events, and culture from the student perspective. We are proudly student-produced and dedicated to bringing you both entertaining and educational content for a well-informed student body.

To keep up to date on all the exciting things we have coming up this year, and also stay in the know on involvement opportunities, make sure to follow us on Instagram: @husky_herald and check out our page on GatherUWB (formerly known as Presence).

This month, we relish in the back-toschool season of new experiences, undiscovered learnings, and the many memories to be made as Huskies arrive home. I am delighted to present to you our inaugural issue of the new academic year, The Husky Herald’s back to school edition, September 2023: “Welcome Home, Huskies”!

As you read this month’s issue, I encourage you to reflect on your distinctive passions and experiences. What’s your story?

Cheers to an amazing year ahead! Let’s conquer those to-do lists, power through all the class projects, and dream even bigger. Warm Regards, Aditi Nambiar Editor-in-Chief, The Husky Herald
