EWU Spokane
Growth of the University District is critical to the success of Eastern Washington University’s strategic plan: community engagement, diversification of faculty and students and relevant academic excellence. A Riverpoint Campus setting with services, safety provisions and parking enhances Eastern’s ability to deliver programs in a flexible, convenient way for an urban population. A robust commercial and residential setting will allow unique opportunities for Eastern students to engage in mutually beneficial partnerships with businesses, organizations and government for class projects and internships. In addition, a vibrant, urban culture fosters diversity of interests, culture and ethnicity. Finally, the University District allows Eastern to bring programs paramount to Spokane’s economy – ranging from allied health care to business to urban planning – right to the center of our metro region.
