The Colors of Fall

Colors of Fall

The sights and sounds of fall in the Pacific Northwest are undeniable. As the seasons change and we approach the end of the semester, students trade sunny days on the quad for foggy mornings, hot drinks and holiday celebrations.

Students walk and bike to campus on a foggy morning An eerie but beautiful fall morning.

Students walk in the Canyon surrounded by trees with yellow and orange leaves Hess Creek Canyon comes alive with color in the fall.

Trees on the quad with bright yellow leaves Vibrant yellows, oranges and reds are on full display on the quad in November.

As campus transitions from fall to winter, once lush trees go bare, waiting to come back to life in the spring.

The sky is filled with loose leaves blown in the wind
