Help keep our campus beautiful

University Police and the City of Bellingham have seen an uptick in graffiti incidents around campus, including in the Outback Farm, in the Sehome Arboretum and in adjacent neighborhoods. Graffiti is vandalism, and it is unwelcome in our communities. All graffiti incidents, whether in progress or not, can be reported through Western’s Live Safe App or by calling the UPD non-emergency number, 360-650-3555. 

We are fortunate to have in our backyard a 180-acre arboretum and park, miles of hiking and biking trails, a vibrant commercial district, welcoming and engaged neighborhoods, and easy access to beautiful Bellingham Bay. We take pride in the beauty of our campus and our surrounding communities, and it takes all of us working together to keep it that way. We'd like to thank you all for your ongoing commitment to keeping our campus and community a safe, welcoming, and beautiful place.
