Volunteer at the Special Olympics USA Games

This summer at the UW, join hundreds of faculty, staff and students and help make the USA games a success. When signing up on the profile page, enter “WholeU” as your group name. Staff must request vacation time off if they volunteer during work hours.

2FA now required to sign in to Workday

To protect private information, all employees are now required to use Duo, the UW's two-factor authentication (2FA) solution, when signing in to Workday, not just when accessing personal data.

Spring courses assigned times, classrooms before registration

No more last-minute scheduling! Students and faculty will know the exact time, day and place of all courses – before registration.
