Congratulations CWU Primate Behavior Program Grads!

June 14, 2025 by Katelyn

Thank you so much to Dr. April Binder, Central Washington University’s Primate Behavior Director of Programs, for sponsoring a day of sanctuary for the chimpanzees and cows in celebration of all the amazing students graduating from CWU in Ellensburg today!

“Congratulations to all CWU graduates in the Primate Behavior programs – including those earning a BS degree in Primate Behavior and Ecology and MS degree in Primate Behavior!”

We are so grateful to all of the amazing graduates for all their hard work and passion for contributing to the lives of primates, including the chimpanzees who call CSNW home. We appreciate you all and wish you all the best! Congratulations!!

    Thank you, Dr. Binder. Congratulations to all the graduates. I hope someone is doing a study on the effects of reading on chimp brain development. You have a perfect study subject.
