Originating in 1953, the Brown & Haley Lecture Series became the first fully endowed lectureship in the history of Puget Sound in 1981. The lectures are intended to make significant contributions to the understanding of urgent problems confronting society, emphasizing perspectives in the social sciences or humanities. In recent years, the Brown & Haley Lecture Series has invited an emerging scholar to offer two lectures speaking to two or more fields during their two-day residency.

The observance of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday has been a tradition at University of Puget Sound since before it was established as a national holiday in 1986. Please join us as we continue this tradition for the 40th year.

The Women’s League brings together Puget Sound alumnae, parents, neighbors, and community members who share a commitment to supporting students. Since 1982, the League has raised scholarship funds—now with an endowment of nearly $1.4 million—providing over $53,000 in awards to 14 students in 2023–24 alone.

Members meet monthly on campus for lunch or evening programs that feature university speakers, student music performances, and opportunities to connect with others. Meetings also include community service projects, such as collecting food for the student pantry.
