When traveling, I always want to visit the local universities—it feels like living a different life for a moment. Especially when it’s such a famous public university like the University of Washington. Gary Locke, former Microsoft chairman… they all graduated from UW. Bill Gates’ father, a well-known lawyer, once taught at its law school. Bruce Lee studied here too, and it was where he met his wife.
Later, I visited UW’s Suzzallo Library—often referred to as the real-life “Harry Potter Library.” Its grandeur rivals that of the Boston Public Library. The UW School of Medicine also ranks extremely high, consistently alongside Harvard and Stanford. Its programs in clinical medicine, public health, and nursing are excellent. Given its proximity to Amazon and Microsoft headquarters and its close collaboration with tech companies like Google and Meta, UW enjoys a very high level of research funding.
旅行时总想去看看当地的大学,仿佛可以过一过另一种人生,尤其是像华盛顿大学这么出名的公立大学,骆家辉,微软前董事长…毕业于UW,比尔盖茨的老爸,著名律师,之前就在这里的法学院任教,李小龙bruce lee之前在这里读书,然后遇到了他老婆…之后去参观了UW的图书馆——Suzzallo ,其被认为是现实版的“哈利波特图书馆”,这图书馆之壮观堪比波士顿的public library,同时,华盛顿大学的医学院排名非常高,常年与哈佛、斯坦福大学并列,临床医学、公共卫生、护理学都很好,其距离亚马逊、微软总部很近,与 Google、Meta 等科技公司合作紧密,所以科研经费很高哦
