This last year there has been a lot of talk about improving campus culture. The question is constantly posed, "How can a commuter campus like UW bothell get people to spend more time on campus and become more involved in campus life?" Here is one idea; stop running this like a commuter campus. Students at this campus pay the same tuition as students at the main campus, however the benefits that UW Bothell students receive aren't even comparable to those of our Seattle counterparts. For example, the library here closes at 9 and the rest of the campus closes shortly after; this is the case even on finals week. At the community college I attended after high school, the library stayed open until midnight during finals. Currently there are no forms of insurance offered through this campus, but students at community colleges, as well as the Seattle campus are all offered insurance programs. When I attended BCC I used to complain about how bad the food service was in the cafeteria. The Subway here on campus makes the BCC cafeteria seem like fine dining. Even by Subway standards, the campus location is sub par. If this school is interested in getting people to spend more time on campus, it may want to consider constructing facilities that will make people want to spend more time here. Perhaps a gymnasium or exercise facility is in order? In the mean time, keeping the campus library open past 9 would be a good start.
