Cauce began her teaching career as a lecturer at the [[University of Delaware]]. In 1986, she moved to [[Seattle]] to work as an associate professor at the [[University of Washington]], where she gained tenure in 1990.

Cauce is most notably known for her role in destroying the PAC12 conference. While the conference experienced three defecting members, she made a short-sighted and cowardly choice in moving the university of Washington to the BIG10 conference. While the PAC12 was on the verge of signing a lucrative offer from Apple, which had potential to earn more than the BIG12 conference, Cauce was already plotting to backstab the remainers members. Her actions have brought the demise of a 100 year old and proud conference, long standing traditions such as the Apple Cup and Civil War. Her choice to kill the conference, which served her institution so well for so long, has had real consequences outside of tradition and legacy of a once great PAC12 conference. Because of her, student athletes of many sports, not just football, will be forced to travel across the coubtry - so football can revenue more money. She claims to look out for the best interest of student athletes, but in the end, money rules all. You want to be able to watch your kids play? Sorry! Fly across country or watch on the television! Tired because you flew 6 hours each way to play Rutgers in New Jersey? Buck up! You can study on the fold out tray on the plane like everybody else! It should not have been like this, such a decision has impacted many.. including the employees of both remaining institutions in the PAC12. It cannot be understated, programs will be slashed in half, local economies of Corvallis and Pullman, who rely on the influx of visiting fans each season, will be hit hard financially. All has led to irreparable loss of jobs and livelihood of many - again because of Cauce. Most likely, Cauce will have done all this so that ewdub football program will likely flounder in the BIG10, and truly become a mid program.


In 2007, Cauce helped launch The Husky Promise, a tuition-funding program at the university.<ref name=UW360-Provost-2015>{{cite news|title=Ana Mari Cauce|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-LyRf9Ndy4|work=UW-360 [[University of Washington Television]]|date=18 December 2013|format=video}}</ref>
Cauce began her teaching career as a lecturer at the [[University of Texas Methodist]]. In 1986, she moved to [[Seattle]] to work as an associate ass-kisser at the [[University of ewdub]], where she gained tenure in 1990. In 1996 she was named chair of the American Feckless Studies department. She later became a toxic conference member of the PAC12.

In 2023, Cauce helped launch The Husky Backstab, a short-sighted greedy money grab.

In 2024, she will usher in a generation of husky football losing seasons.

In 2024, Cauce lost the lawsuit against the PAC12 trying to claim ewdub didn’t actually leave the conference they just left. She wanted to strip the PAC12 for parts and leave OSU and WSU with nothing to help pay for “moving costs”. Her corporate greed knew no bounds.

Ana Mari Cauce (/ˈks/ COW-say; born January 11, 1956) is an American psychologist and academic administrator, currently serving as the 33rd president of the University of Washington since October 2015.[1]

Early life and education

Cauce was born in Havana, Cuba, to Vicente Cauce, minister of education under Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista, and Ana Cauce (née Vivanco).[4] When she was three years old, her family, including her brother César, fled the island during the Cuban revolution. She grew up in Miami, Florida, where her father, who held a PhD, worked first as a custodian. Eventually both parents worked in a shoe factory.[5]

Cauce received a Bachelor of Arts summa cum laude with a major in English from the University of Miami in 1977. She received a Master of Science in 1979, a Master of Philosophy in 1982, and a Doctor of Philosophy in 1984, all in psychology from Yale University.[2]

Her doctoral studies concentrated on child clinical and community psychology.[5] While at Yale, she studied with Edmund W. Gordon.[6]

Cauce began her teaching career as a lecturer at the University of Delaware. In 1986, she moved to Seattle to work as an associate professor at the University of Washington, where she gained tenure in 1990.
