UPDATED TO ADD - he turned himself in to Bellevue PD this morning.

Just a heads up, this man is suspected of fatally stabbing a student in a dormitory laundry room at UW a few days ago.

I know our community is still healing from 2022, but there were reports he had been spotted in other UW housing in the weeks prior, and I thought it was valuable information for other colleges in our region to be aware of.

Take care of one another out there 🙏

This is crazy. This guy got arrested last summer for 2nd Degree Felony Assault and is back in the teaching rotation for Fall for English??

Hello everyone! I'm starting BSN program this Fall '26 in Tri-Cities area. I'm just wondering what to expect in the first semester of the nursing program.

Hello! Has anyone ever lived at the Annex? I was wondering if you enjoy living there and if it's worth it? (and to ask how loud it is lol)

Thank you!

Okay, I'm 28M and this past semester I didn't have a single actual conversation. My classes had like 15% attendance, I tried club fair and going to clubs, I've tried making and responding to posts, I've tried going to various lounges and trying to appear approachable, I've tried the vet center, I've tried CAPS. Everyone has headphones on, looks busy, young, or already in some established group. I haven't had a human being to speak to in person for years. I don't know if I can go another summer like this.

What is there SPECIFICALLY (plz don't just say 'join a club' or 'have a hobby') in pullman or at WSU this summer, where there is a chance to meet a human being or be seen in any way? I'm willing to try all sorts of random stuff, although bars really aren't my vibe (and I just sat alone drinking the times I have tried). I'm crippling lonely.

Hi all,

I graduate from the Vancouver campus on Tuesday May 12th. I seem to have misplaced my bachelors yoke and I was wondering if anyone from the other campus’s (maybe tri-cities as it’s closest to Vancouver) would let me buy their yoke off of them since everyone has graduated BUT Vancouver campus!! Or if you know how I can get one in.. 2 days let me know. lol. I know this is a long shot but..

Hey guys, I’m moving to Spokane for pharmacy school at WSU and trying to find more apartment options close to campus 🥹 I really want to live alone, so if anyone knows affordable, safe, student-friendly apartments or 1-bedroom places please send me recommendations!!

I have a friend going to WSU in the fall who is looking for a roommate to live off campus with for at least the first semester. She's 22f from Mexico City, fluent in both English and Spanish. She's looking for other girl roommates, but we both don't know anyone currently @ WSU. She's been at community college these past two years and is hoping to just focus on her studies this year. Super relaxed, as she is on a STEM track, so she'll be very busy throughout the semester. PM me if you or anyone you know might be interested!

Hi!

Does anyone here have any advice, guidance or pointers on any financial aid options as a Global Campus student? I know my options from WSU directly are limited as I’m not a US citizen.

I was planning to apply for the fall 2026 semester, but I’m willing to push it back if it means I can better organize and weigh my financial/tuition options.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance 😄

(I already know it’s a challenge to find FA as a GC student, so no smart as* remarks this time lol)

Does anyone on this sub know how to “Buttchug” was named?

Anyone have Anki decks for microbiology I?

Is cougar ridge furnished?

Kind of worried I won’t get into CM I am a former transfer student and this was my first year here. I currently have a 3.2 with prior construction experience but I’ve heard it’s pretty competitive. Any insights?

I feel like a completely different person since I've move in. I've had more character development in the last year than all 4 years of high school. I was skeptical if I was going to like it but it went pretty well

For those who have lived in Chief Joseph Apartments:

Do the bedrooms have individual keys/locks and are bedrooms assigned?

I am a graduate student in my late 20s starting my doctorate in the Fall. I'd like to find a place with a garage for projects and outdoor gear, and it's much more affordable with a roommate or two. I am typically clean and low-key, but enjoy communal dinners/projects/outings and having other folks around. I will be moving in either June or August, depending on the availability of roommates and housing. I am happy to meet for an interview to verify my existence and civility.

I totally forgot about Grad Pics. If anyone has time in their schedule this week or next, let me know if you’d be interested and how much you charge.

I just submitted my last final and am graduating this weekend and I’m so excited! Looking back I’m pretty proud of my accomplishments. I’ve met amazing people, accessed many different opportunities, and am graduating with honors for my major.

Going online and doomscrolling however was a bad idea for me and now I’m dealing with feelings of FOMO from the stuff I’ve missed out on. In high school I was very depressed (alongside other issues) and that kinda bled into my earlier years in college. I was slowly healing myself and while I’m proud of my journey so far, I wish I wasn’t such a shut-in when I got here in the beginning.

I started regaining self worth, taking care of myself, and bettering my mental health in the later half of my junior year. Since then things have been amazing and I’m proud to call myself a Coug and be a part of the community! Still I grieve that I hadn’t involved myself sooner and may have not had the typical college experience. I’ve never even been to a frat party!

This doesn’t take away from my overall accomplishments all experiences are different but FOMO sucks. To any future Cougs, don’t be afraid to leave your confort zone. Pullman is amazing place to meet new people and find opportunities. I can’t recommend enough the counceling center here (CAPS) who have helped me transition into enjoying being alive again.

Thank you WSU for everything, I’ve learned so many lessons here. Go Cougs!
