Blog Description

Welcome to our blog! As seniors here at Washington State University, we've heard the same jokes about living in the Palouse...time and time again...

"So how much time do you spend in those wheatfields...?"

"No wonder you're all alcoholics...there's nothing to do in Pullman except drink..."

...and my personal favorite, a quote from Don James, retired University of Washington football coach: "Attending WAZZU is great preparation for real life. It teaches you not to expect too much."

WELL, while we have as good of a sense of humor as anyone, if not better, we beg to differ. There is plenty to do in Pullman, and we plan to prove it to you. From nightlife, to outdoor recreation, to campus events/involvement, and more, Pullman earned the nickname Pullmania for a reason.

Sure, drinking may be an (albeit large) part of that, but that's the case at most American college campuses. From our last three years in this incredible town, we've got lots of personal experience in finding more to do. In our last year here, we're dedicated to finding even more and sharing it with all of you, if for no other reason than giving you something to share with your parents when they worry about your weekend habits.

Please share this with your friends, and send us messages or comments with any suggestions or requests of things you'd like to see. We want everyone to enjoy Pullman as much as we do!

Why WSU?

We love WSU, but why does everyone else? We wanted to know why students chose WSU out of all the other options out there. Listen to their answers and feel the Pullman love.

What do YOU love about being a COUG?!

Shannon and I love pretty much everything about this magical place, but since we're already writing this blog about the things that we love, we wanted to hear what the rest of campus thinks. We polled about 30 people on campus and took our favorite answers, mixed those with our favorite stadium anthems, and created this podcast. Tell us what you think!

Thunderstorm on the Palouse

We know, we know...Pullman has A LOT of wheatfields. But a few weeks ago, we got this amazing picture during a thunderstorm and just had to share. Wheatfields be damned, this is still one hell of a beautiful campus!
