Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW Newsroom…

The Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center celebrated its 50th anniversary this week - the center has evolved from a scrappy lab doing what some considered risky science, into one of the top cancer centers in the world.

International students have brought needed revenue to colleges in recent years, especially community colleges where local enrollment has fallen… But getting permission to study in the U-S has gotten harder under the Trump administration.

And September 2nd marked 80 years since the end of World War II. Hear from veterans’ families, and a historian working to preserve personal memories of World War II.
