When it comes to large-scale conflict, there exists a constant element of uncertainty.

However, for the sake of a fresh landscape, my ventures led me to Fishermen’s Terminal for a look into Seattle’s local fish selection. Although seasonal produce cannot be found lining the docks of the pier, sustainable and wild-caught fish make a great addition to other farmers market finds.
Located in BE3221, at the main Edison building, The MESA program is not only a place for science but a space for people who are looking for a community. Shawn Armour, Director of the MESA program at Seattle Central said that “the most important aspect of MESA is that we provide a community, a village of fun individuals around whom you can have fun while learning.”
