PACCAR Day at Foster

A clean, modern, state-of-the-art building on the north-central part of campus, PACCAR Hall is the unmistakable jewel of the Foster School. The result of several private donations from area companies, the building is named after its largest benefactor, truck manufacturer PACCAR Inc. Headquartered in Bellevue, the Fortune 500 company continues to forge an exceptional and ongoing relationship with Foster, sponsoring the PACCAR Award for Excellence in Teaching and recruiting students and recent grads for internships and jobs. In recognition of this extraordinary partnership, Foster officially declared October 8, 2014, as PACCAR Day on the UW campus.

During the event, students, staff, and faculty were able to tour trucks, speak with PACCAR employees, and enjoy a special lunchtime presentation from CEO Ron Armstrong. See photos from the event below.
