2023 SEFS Salmon Barbeque

Written by

SEFS continued a longstanding tradition this week, hosting our annual salmon barbeque in the Anderson Hall Courtyard! Throughout the evening, we hosted over 300 SEFS students, faculty, staff, friends, and family, serving up fresh salmon, corn, and more. The salmon barbeque has been a cherished SEFS event as far back as the 1980s, and provides a joyous way to kick the fall semester off with our peers and colleagues.

This event was made possible by the generous support of donors to SEFS. Thank you to everyone who helped make our annual feast a success!

Written by

Last Wednesday, October 5, we hosted the largest Salmon BBQ we can remember! The weather turned beautiful after a dodgy forecast in the morning, and record numbers turned out—and waited patiently in line for a shot at the salmon!—for a joyful afternoon among friends and colleagues. Seriously, such a good time, and a huge thank you to everyone who chipped in to make our annual feast a wonderful success.

In case you missed the fun or want to spot yourself in the crowd, take a look at some photos from the afternoon!

2015 Salmon BBQ: Slideshow!

Written by

Last Wednesday, October 7, the rain obliged us and halted long enough for us to enjoy another rousing Salmon BBQ in the Anderson Hall courtyard! It was a festive kick-off for the fall quarter, with more than 200 students, staff, faculty, alumni, family and friends coming out to feast on endless trays of salmon, loads of potluck offerings, several kegs from Big Time Brewery, and a wine-sampling table.

Our photographer was somewhat distracted with salmon-serving duties, but we still managed to capture a few shots of the fun. Take a look!

Photography Exhibition: Views from the Northwoods

Written by

This October, for the second year in a row, John Tylczak has generously offered to loan us 10 images from his broader collection, Views from the Northwoods: 1983-1995, for a month-long photography exhibition in the Forest Club Room!

Tylczak’s black-and-white prints powerfully capture the scenes and faces of the Washington timber industry in the mid-1980s and early 1990s, from fallers and rigging crews, to loaders and transport workers, log scalers and mill workers. He ended up taking more than 1,500 large-format images during that time, and the 10 he’s sharing this year all come from the Olympic Peninsula.

His photographs will be on display throughout October from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Anderson 207, and you can meet Tylczak in person if you’re able to make it to the Salmon BBQ on Wednesday, October 7, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.!
