Dan Evans’ service to and impact on our state is virtually without equal: he served three terms as governor, five years in the U.S. Senate, eight years in the State House of Representatives, six years as the president of Evergreen State College and twelve years on the UW Board of Regents, among many other volunteer roles within the University. In every role and in all that he did, he was unshakably committed to his values and integrity, which always served as his north star. He believed deeply in civility, mutual respect and bipartisanship, and throughout his long career in public service, he refused to sacrifice his principles for the sake of expediency or personal advancement.

At the Evans School, diversity, equity, and inclusion are integral to excellence. We value diverse experiences and perspectives, strive to create welcoming and respectful learning environments, and promote access, opportunity, and justice for all. In alignment with this commitment, we acknowledge that fellowships can serve as important forms of financial support to aid in achieving diversity within the Evans School student population. Since 1999, it has been the policy of the University to use these tools to the fullest extent possible while still complying with applicable state and federal laws.
