Saying goodbye: CWU faculty and administration reflect on their experience Story Continued from Pg. 1
book page, I’m posting pictures of things I know will stir up memories. So far, I’ve posted a picture of some paper binder clips, a case of Pepsi and a stress ball.

And who could forget office chair-racing down Lind Hall?
these smart people is by far the best part of my job. What is your favorite memory from CWU? Probably the first CWU Mariners Night.
