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!

Gearing up to "Cear Cut the Cardinal"

Every October there are two main events that WSU students look forward to; Homecoming and Halloween. While the latter isn't due to arrive for a couple more weeks, preparations for Homecoming week are in full swing. Bars are gearing up for "Open 2 Closes", while stores like Crimson & Gray are stocking their shelves for the highly anticipated crowd set to arrive Friday afternoon.

This year the Cougs host the (currently-ranked) no.7 Staford Cardinals, setting the stage for a fast paced Pac-12 showdown on the Palouse. If you plan on coming to Pullman prior to the game on Saturday, check out the link and the picture below to learn more about the many activities going on throughout the week.

Also, be sure to check back in for Homecoming updates next week, and as always, Go Cougs!
