Well it is that time of the year again when the graduating seniors say their final farewells as they pack up what they called home for the last four or so years and head out into the real world. Sadly, I am one of those graduating seniors that hate to be leaving, but I know that I will be coming back numerous times in the future. [More]

Well Intramural participants, it is that time of the semester when it all comes down to the final game. UREC Intramurals will be hosting its annual Championship Night this week. 4-on-4 Flag Football will take place at Valley Road Playfields on Tuesday night and Basketball will be held inside the Shared Facilities on Thursday night.

Every semester begins a new period in which every UREC employee has to get audited to stay up to date on their CPR knowledge. Some people may think these audits are a bit unnecessary or challenging, but they are implemented for a reason. [More]

As the semester is slowly coming to an end it is a good time to look back at the intramural season as a whole. The biggest highlight of the fall semester was getting over 200 flag football teams signed up. This is the largest turnout that intramurals has seen since the addition of the Valley Road Playfields. Not only is this good for the intramurals program, but it is encouraging to see our participants staying active in our Cougar community. [More]

Most people think of the movie “Dodgeball” when they hear the word related to the sport. The famous quote, “If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball”, is always a way to get people talking about the sport. However, dodgeball can be a lot more challenging than some may believe. [More]

As the final days of November are gradually coming to an end, it means the last days of No-Shave-November are sadly ending. Throughout this month men have been growing out their mustaches to show support for men’s health. Movember is a time for men to realize that their health is important and they need to start taking care of their bodies by getting regular checkups. [More]

This thanksgiving break is a good time for us as students to take a step back from our busy lives and remind ourselves of what we are thankful for.  As we are heading home for the holiday it is time to sit back and relax before finals week, which is quickly approaching.  Personally I am swamped between school, work, clubs, and a social gathering that I forget that Thanksgiving is a time to be thankful.  This year I have reminded myself to give back to those that have helped me be where I am at today and I would like to thank the following: My family - for always being so supportive and encouraging in anything I set out to do.  Thanks to my parents who have raised me with proper manners and to respect everyone even in the toughest times.  Intramural Staff and Supervisors - for giving me the opportunity to enhance my work experience for my future career goals.  Also for being a great group of people who get along as a family, and make the work environment a great place to spend time.  Soldiers and Veterans - thank you for fighting for our country and sacrificing your lives to serve for us.  WSU - I am thankful for the opportunity to come to college and earn a double degree, which I tend to put to good use and give back to our society in the future.  Being a part of the WSU Cougar family means a lot and I am proud to always support the Cougs all throughout my life and help future Cougs along the way.  Friends - I am lucky to have a great group of friends who look out for me and are helping me succeed in my collegiate career. I could go on and on with my new-found dedication to being thankful. This list represents just some of the things I am grateful for.  I encourage you to take a break out of your hectic schedules and think about what you are thankful for.  What better time to reflect during the holiday weekend with no classes to attend. And remember to get out there and through the football around after you... [More]
