Spokane and the Region

Welcome to Spokane – a thriving city in Washington state that mixes outdoor adventure with a lively urban scene just minutes from campus. There’s always something going on, from food trucks and farmers markets to live music, sports and arts events. With four seasons, you can bike the Hiawatha Trail, run the Bloomsday 12k or ski at Mount Spokane. (Bonus – Spokane is a great place for internships and jobs, too.)
