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!

Great! There are several opportunities happening in Pullman RIGHT NOW which you could jump all over to give back to the wonderful Pullman community.

Anything helps!

The Association of Women in Communication is hosting a Diaper Drive this weekend on Sunday November 13th from 10 a.m. until 6p.m. in front of Safeway. The items and proceeds will be donated Care Net of the Palouse children in need this winter. Sizes 4,5, and 6 are requested. Hot chocolate is free for all donators. KUGR radio will be present djing at the event.
As diapers are quite expensive, cash or check donations are also gladly accepted.
It’s a great cause and opportunity to help out those in need within our community.
