Fall edition of Crimson and Black hits mailboxes just in time for Christmas

The latest issue of Crimson & Black magazine was recently mailed out to members of the CWU community, and readers are sure to find a variety of interesting gifts contained within.

The fall 2024 edition of CWU’s award-winning publication, produced by University Relations and University Advancement, features in-depth stories about CWU programs, students, faculty, staff, and alumni. The 50-page fall edition arrived in mailboxes the second weekend of December and was distributed across the Ellensburg campus the week of December 16.

For those who prefer to read the magazine online, the website has now been updated. A downloadable PDF is also available.

Here’s a snapshot of what you’ll find in the fall 2024 edition:
