I wasn't close to @rockdoggydog, but I was truly lucky to be somewhere in his orbit. I interviewed him for my story in #UWMag, and my editors asked me to write about him. The world is lesser without you in it, Rocky. https://magazine.washington.edu/feature/remembering-rocky-yeh/ …

Dr. James A. Banks, the first black professor at the @UWCollegeOfEd, is known as the "Father of Multicultural Education." #UWMag interviewed him on the eve of his retirement a year ago: https://magazine.washington.edu/feature/james-banks-uw-retires-multicultural-education/ … #BlackHistoryMonth

When children with critical illnesses in Washington and Alaska make a wish, they turn to two UW alumni: UWAA member Melissa Arias, ’97, and Trina Cottingham, ’96, who help lead the local chapter of Make-A-Wish. #UWMag has the story. #MemberMondayhttps://magazine.washington.edu/feature/alumni-make-wishes-come-true-for-ailing-children/ …

More than 25 years ago, #UWMag shared the stories of six African-American alumni who attended the UW over six decades.
