<content:encoded><![CDATA[Musfirah Khan is graduating from the WSU Murrow College of Communication this weekend. 
Khan, senior multimedia journalism major, is originally from Seattle and started working for The Daily Evergreen, the student newspaper at Washington State University, in spring of 2023. 
Khan said that she has had an interest in writing from a very early point in her life, which is what prompted her to apply to work at The Daily Evergreen, 
“I’ve always loved writing, ever since I was in middle school, I knew that I wanted to do something with English,” Khan said. 
Khan said she originally wanted to be an English teacher, but ended up changing her major to journalism. She picked journalism to follow her passion for helping the community and giving representation to underrepresented people. 
She favored the aspect of journalism that allowed her to connect with many different types of people, she said. 
“I was inspired to kind of be that voice that uplifts people and their stories,” she said. 
Rehael Mufti, WSU graduate and Khan’s best friend, said that when it comes to Khan’s work in journalism she looks for all sides of the story.
“As I’ve know her, I’ve seen her through her entire like degree and stuff, she looks at all sides of the story and then comes to a decision and if she’s really passionate about certain things, she really sits there and makes sure you get her point of view when it comes to journalism,” she said.
This goes for her writing style as well, Mufti said. 
“She’s been showing me all the things that she’s been doing …it’s such an interesting way and experience of just seeing her world, like her perspective,” she said.
Khan said one of her favorite parts about WSU is the teachers she has encountered throughout her academic journey. 
“My communications teachers, Tracy Simmons and Alison Boggs were both great professors to me. They both suggested that I write for The Daily Evergreen, which eventually inspired me to submit an article and officially become a reporter, for them I am very grateful,” Khan said. 
Khan said she was at first hesitant to join the Daily Evergreen.
“It made me nervous to think about my writing being published,” Khan said. 
Khan said she was worried she would make mistakes or offend someone. 
Mufti, however, said she is one of the most hard working and passionate person she knows. 
“She will go above and beyond for anyone that she loves, super hard working, like the amount of times that I’ve tried calling her and she’s like, ‘I’ve got this work to get done. Whenever I’m free, then I’ll get back to you,’” she said.
Khan was hesitant about the workload though and how that would affect her academics
“However, I’m really glad that I gathered up my courage and made the decision to work for The Daily Evergreen,” Khan said.
Khan said The Daily Evergreen has provided her with great experience and amazing opportunities that she doesn’t think she would have found anywhere else.
Khan’s little sister, Maleekah Khan, said that her sister loves her job at The Daily Evergreen
“She always talks about how much she loves her job and I can really tell that it’s not just her but the people around her also know how talented she is, you know, so I’m really excited for her like after she graduates I feel like it’s just gonna be like, I think it’s gonna be great for her. I think she’s really gonna thrive in her workforce era,” she said. 
Khan said one of her favorite pieces was covering the Earthquake in Turkey that occurred in 2023. She said it was interesting to be able to connect a global event to Washington State University. 
For her article on the Turkey Earthquake, Khan connected with WSU students and faculty who had family back home in Turkey. Raising awareness for the Earthquake and wrote about how the event of the earthquake impacted WSU students, faculty, and their loved ones. Stories like those motivate her to continue sharing people’s stories through the news, she said.
Khan said for her post-graduation plans, she is applying for internships and jobs in Seattle, Washington near her family. She eventually wants to be an investigative reporter or foreign correspondent.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[After growing up in Pullman, Anna Adams went to England for a year. But once the year was up, she realized she still had more to do in the tiny town she had lived in her entire life.
Adams, senior multimedia major, said after living in the college town her entire life, she was ready to get out of Pullman.
When her senior year of high school came around, she did not know what she wanted to do, and her friend told her about Capernwray Bible School in England. Adams said she had the finances for it, and one of her friends was going to attend as well, so she decided to take that step and not only get out of Pullman, but get out of the country and experience something new.
“I definitely don’t regret that. I think that was the best decision of my life, to get out,” she said. “I just met so many people from different cultures, from different backgrounds and learned so many new things at that college.”
A year later, when she went back to Pullman, she felt like she had not completely taken advantage of her time in the town when she was growing up and she wanted to leave with good memories.
She grew up with the WSU culture, and both of her parents and her older sister attended WSU as well, so she wanted to experience the culture herself, she said.
“I just felt like growing up here wasn’t enough,” she said.
Adams said she came to WSU as a public relations major. She knew she wanted to be involved in the communications field because she did speech and debate in high school and competed at the national level every year since she was 14.
She chose the public relations track because she did not have a vision for her future at that point, but when she went through her classes, she saw two separate sides: advertising and journalism, she said. After taking COM 300, she discovered her love for journalism, so she switched majors at the end of her junior year.
Cable 8 Productions was a big factor in her switching majors as well, she said. She joined the organization in the second semester of her junior year because she felt she needed to be involved with something during her career at WSU.
She became an assistant producer for a sports show, “Coug on the Clock,” and was responsible for social media for Wazzu Sports Network. She then went on to become an assistant producer for “CougZone,” continuing social media, covering sports on the sidelines and in the studio and helping produce the show.
“It just opened so many opportunities for me and I now have things to show employers of me anchoring and news reporting,” Adams said. “And I felt so much more confident in what I have learned in my classes.”
Cristian Gonzalez, fifth-year senior broadcast production and multimedia major, is the director of “CougZone” and “Wazzu Recap,” and has been working with Adams for the last year and a half.
Gonzalez said Adams is one of his go-to people because if he needs something done, especially on the social media side of things, she does a great job at making sure it gets done and coordinating with other people.
“Our social media accounts have grown tremendously since she’s taken over, I think just about 100 followers on Instagram alone,” he said.
A big goal Gonzalez had for social media was getting into TikTok, because it is a valuable social media platform and can be utilized for any company or brand.
“She’s gotten on top of that. We’re pushing out a lot of content, which I think is really nice,” he said. “She does a good job.”
Gonzalez said now that the shows are ending and people involved are not constantly in the studio, he is going to miss having Adams around to chat or help with a job.
Whenever Gonzalez asked her to do something, she would get it done no questions asked. He said recently, he needed multiple Instagram posts scheduled throughout a few days, and she was able to get them done early.
“I just really appreciate everything she’s done for me,” he said. “Just the fact that I can tell her to do something and I can trust her creative instincts to do it, not the way I want it to be but the way she wants it to be. I think that’s a value and a worker that’s really hard to find.”
During her senior year, Adams had friends who encouraged her to join The Daily Evergreen, but the idea of interviewing people and writing something that would be published intimidated her and she did not think she had it in her. But she realized the only thing she had on her resume was Cable 8, and it was her senior year, so she wanted more experience to show her capabilities.
When she joined this past October as a life reporter and wrote her first published article, she said she had an ‘I did that’ moment when she read it.
Eventually, she became the multimedia editor and wrote for the sports section as well.
When a change of leadership called for an open managing editor position, she was asked to step into the role. Adams said she did not want it because she did not feel ready or capable. But she realized she needed to take the opportunities in front of her and do her best.
“What I’ve learned throughout my career at WSU is once you say yes to something, everything else follows after,” she said. “You just kind of need to say yes and take the step forward…Taking the job has been more responsibility, but I don’t regret it.”
Adams said she is not entirely sure what she wants to do after graduating on Saturday, but the big dream for her is to be a journalist who brings light to issues in local communities and the country in general.
“I love to be able to take time and do in-depth studies and take the time to research people that are really going through hardships, just real-life stories and bringing them to light so that people can be aware of issues happening,” she said.
Ideally, she would like to be a reporter so she can have the opportunity to take on these stories and report on the community because individual lives are important to her.
“We should be focusing on our own lives and what’s going on in the community and how we can better ourselves and what events are happening in the culture around us,” she said. “I think if people pay more attention to that, the world would be a better place and I would love to be a part of contributing to that.”
Her experiences in England and at WSU have helped her grow as a person and prepare for life outside of college.
Adams said attending a bible school in another country helped her grow in her faith, which is central to who she is as a person. Being able to learn so much from so many different people with different opinions, views and interpretations of the scripture helped her be more open-minded as well.
At WSU, she has been able to surround herself with a culture where she has never needed to doubt herself, and once she decided to say yes to opportunities given to her, she found people who were supportive of her.
“Everyone was so good at what they did and so passionate about what they were learning about. That just really turned my head in the right direction…and be passionate about what I’m learning about,” Adams said. “The whole culture of Murrow College and everyone involved in the Evergreen and Cable 8 doing their best really inspired me to do my best.”

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Dorothy Greenhalge (they/them) is an architecture major, but it was a perfect match when they got hired on as the design editor for The Daily Evergreen in the 2021 fall semester.
Greenhalge came to WSU after taking a gap year post-high school graduation; they now have a focus on sociological architecture, but got involved with their major by chance.
“I’ve been really interested in art and design since I was young, and I was always pretty good at math, so I figured I could do architecture,” Greenhalge said. “It’s like the best of both worlds.”
Greenhalge decided to go to WSU because it was still in-state, but also because of the opportunities the university offered to first-generation students like them.
When Greenhalge applied for The Daily Evergreen in 2021, the design editor position did not exist, so they applied to be an illustrator. But, they said they were asked to be the design editor, and it worked out well because as an architecture major, they convey information visually. 
“I think working at the newspaper and doing layout and some of the illustration and design stuff I’ve done is a really good exercise,” they said. “It shows me how to communicate information truthfully and accurately through visuals.”
Alongside The Daily Evergreen, Greenhalge was co-chair for Period, a club involving metro equity, for a while. But at some point, they realized they needed to combine their passion for social change with architecture.
So, they started a club called Design Activism Society, which functions through the Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture and looks at social change in the architectural environment and how students can help promote it.
Greenhalge said they have done a lot with the groups they have been involved with, including collecting materials to distribute to people in Spokane through Period and community engagement through DAS.
Growing up, they did not know a lot about architecture; it is important to DAS to help younger students become aware of the options available to them, Greenhalge said.
WSU alumni Lucy Perry was involved in Period with Greenhalge and has known them for almost four years. Perry said Greenhalge is full of new ideas and thinking about how to make concrete change for the better.
“I always loved that I could rely on Dorothy for a creative solution to a problem or creative approach,” she said. “They’re very creative, and that’s why they’re really good at problem-solving…I feel like that was the most rewarding part, was how good they are at coming up with new ideas.”
Perry said Greenhalge has made an impact on the undergraduate community at WSU by not only starting a club, but helping run Period for three years.
Greenhalge is very active in the community, and Perry said she feels like they have contributed to a culture change at WSU for the better.
“That’s what I admire so much about them; they actually helped a lot of people make a change, big or small, with getting the word out about different activist groups like Period and DAS and just establishing that culture,” Perry said.
After graduating with their bachelor’s degree, Greenhalge will stay at WSU to get their master’s degree in architectural studies after going to Seattle for the summer.
“I’ve been taking some sociology classes and writing and that’s really interesting,” they said.
The architecture program at WSU is rigorous and hard work for a good reason. Greenhalge said they have learned a lot about soft skills such as networking and making connections with people.
“It feels like a very tight-knit community, so you have to be a good community member in order to have a good time at school,” they said. “All those things combined, I feel like it sets me up for grad school and getting a job after that.”
Outside of school and jobs, Greenhalge enjoys working on personal art projects, which they relate to activities they are already doing like DAS.
In their free time, they enjoy working on crafts and designing items such as T-shirts, they said.
“I feel like I apply a lot of the stuff I learned at school to my actual life,” Greenhalge said. “I’m trying to keep all my education very grounded in reality instead of it being loft academic theories and ideas…and I honestly really enjoy doing that outside of school.”

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Evan Charney grew up surrounded by woods in Wilton, Connecticut, and decided WSU in Pullman would be a good fit for college as it had a similar community atmosphere — just with yellow wheatfields instead of green trees.
Charney, senior digital media and technology major, spent his time surrounded by wheatfields doing the most he could to be involved through the Edward R. Murrow College of Communication and other clubs around campus.
At WSU, Charney said he, at different points, served as human resources director for Cable 8 Productions, president of the club baseball team, a Murrow ambassador, part-time writer of The Daily Evergreen, a choir member, called games for KUGR and the Pac-12 network and finally, safety and marketing officer for the club ski team.
He said he is a jack of all trades and a bit of a perfectionist, but with all the time he has committed to his clubs, he is trying to be a good friend and familiar face to people on campus.
Charney said he is a people person who loves talking and always trying to get involved and build new relationships.
“I like to think of myself as a friend. Above most, I like to try and be there for people and as much as I like to joke around with my friends, I hope they know I’m always there for them,” he said. “Secondly, I would say I’m a son. I’m very close with my dad. And I want to make him proud. So hopefully I’ve done that by now.”
Carlos Murrieta, 2023 WSU graduate and Charney’s former roommate, said despite being older and graduating sooner than him, Charney helped him with his classwork, as well as socially. Despite all the time Charney had allotted to his clubs, he always made the time to be there when needed by his closest friends like Murrieta.
“More than just in school, but with everything outside of school,” Murrieta said. “He puts everything he has into what he does. He does [everything he does] out of passion, not just because it might make him look good.”
Even a full year after his graduation, Murrieta said the two talk nightly; Charney is always there and always reaching out.
For his friends still in Pullman, Charney has made a significant impact on their success. Gunner Miller, senior broadcast news major, said Charney is someone who has fundamentally changed his college trajectory.
Having recently interviewed as a finalist for a job with the Seattle Seahawks, Miller said he cannot take all the credit for his success, instead praising the help he has received from people like Charney.
“I look to him as a mentor. I owe a lot of my success to him,” Miller said. “There is no Gunner Scott Miller without Evan Charney. The things he’s done for me on a personal level are things I cannot even begin to start thanking him for.”
Miller and Charney are both graduating Saturday with degrees from Murrow and have both worked side by side for years. Both were selected to represent the college on the MLB Spring Training trip over spring break and both worked together on the Cable 8 show “Wazzu Recap” before taking positions on the executive board for the 2023–2024 academic year.
Charney said the reason the two have been close is they can balance their relationship.
“Being able to have the two sides of like, ‘Hey, we’re goofing around right now. We’re having a lot of fun.’ Then being able to switch it up and just if we need to get serious we can get serious,” Charney said. “We can be like, ‘Hey, man, whatever you’re going through right now. I’m here to help and support you.’ That is what is at the center of our friendship.”
As he prepares for his graduation, there is no set path for Charney.
He said he is going wherever the wind takes him; whether working in sports or taking his off time to travel the world and explore new places, he is ready for what lies ahead.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Where do I begin…
Ever since I was a little girl I’ve been writing stories and making up fairytales, anywhere from Sally and the Pencil Family to a story about a haunted house run by a bat.
I came to WSU with the hopes of becoming a lawyer while pursuing a criminal justice major. After realizing there was something lacking in my life, Anna Michalson, my big in the Kappa Delta sorority, convinced me to write an article for The Daily Evergreen about the Food for Fines program.
Three years later, I can confidently say the Evergreen changed my life.
I had the opportunity to write some really fun, wholesome articles about WSU love stories and feature pieces, as well as some harder news stories involving crime and the community.
I started my own column, the Cougar Cowgirl. Mixing my love for writing with my Western lifestyle and being able to share my journey of college rodeoing through writing was one of the biggest blessings to me and simply awesome.
When the horrific murders took place in Moscow in 2022, USA Today reached out to the Evergreen looking for a reporter to help them write some articles. I was excited to have a shot at my first big girl article, and I took the opportunity immediately.
Because of my freelancing time with USAT, I applied for a summer internship with them as a Search and Optimization reporter.
Then, because of the confidence I was finding in my writing and the love I realized I had for telling the stories of the community, I applied for Murrow College’s prestigious donor-funded Backpack Journalism Program that travels internationally to report on communities abroad.
I was selected for both programs, and both of them continued to change my confidence and abilities as a journalist. They were experiences I will cherish forever.
I have been a reporter, copy editor, multimedia editor and now the copy chief of the Daily Evergreen, and there is nothing in the world I would change for the experience I have had the last three years.
The Daily Evergreen opened the door to every opportunity I have received, and for that, I am forever indebted. I was reminded how much I love writing, meeting new people, hearing new stories and sharing that with the world.
My Goodbye
To all of my fantastic Murrow professors, thank you beyond words.
Professor Benjamin Shors, thank you for forcing me to look deeper into stories and ask tougher questions. Professor Matthew Loveless, thank you for helping me find a passion in broadcast journalism and allowing me to be myself on and off the camera.
Professor Wendy Raney, thank you for working with me on stories and giving me advice consistently, regardless of the fact that I was never your student. Joy Wanja-Thuku, thank you for being a mentor and a friend in and out of journalism.
And Professor Alison Boggs, thank you for your everlasting mentorship and care for the last two years; you are the true definition of a professor who leaves a lifelong impact.
To the Kappa Delta sorority, thank you for bringing me my best friends. Living in Mango Deck and having a pajama party every night has been the highlight of my experience. I made so many relationships and friendships that I will carry with me forever.
To WSU and Pullman, I am so eternally grateful for this little town and all of the opportunities, people and memories I have made here. I feel as though there are no words I can say that would come close to the impact this place has left on me. All the tears, laughter, pain and love I have felt over the last four years are irreplaceable.
I am graduating summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and Media Production, with an additional major in the Criminal Justice department. I cannot wait for what the next chapter holds, but this chapter will always be one of the most special to me.
Go Cougs, forever and ever.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<a href="https://www.terracottapullman.com/">Terracotta Pullman</a>, the pottery business in downtown Pullman, will be opening up a second location in Moscow in May due to Project Downtown Pullman.
Terracotta has yet to decide on an opening date, but the first day of workshops is May 10. The Moscow location is at 111 S. Main St. and is 1,700 square feet, twice the size of the Pullman location.
Terracotta owner Candace Baltz said she thought about opening a business in Moscow ever since she opened her Pullman location in 2022. Her customers were always telling her that it would be nice to have a Moscow location. When Baltz heard how long Project Downtown Pullman was going to last, she took her customer’s suggestions into consideration.
Project Downtown Pullman is a project to improve sidewalks and public spaces to revitalize the downtown area in Pullman, according to <a href="https://www.projectdowntownpullman.org/">the project’s website</a>. The project’s expected timeline and closure of Main Street is from April 1–October 15.
“I heard somewhere that downtown Pullman businesses could expect to lose 60% of profits,” Baltz said.
A group of residents known as the Save Downtown Pullman group surveyed downtown Pullman businesses to see how the revitalization project would affect them. The group found that out of 30 businesses that completed the survey, 60% said they have less than three months’ revenue reserved this year to help deal with the financial losses due to the revitalization project, according to <a href="https://dnews.com/local/businesses-surveyed-about-project-downtown/article_1fa08454-48d2-5c66-a9b1-f123878771a5.html">Moscow-Pullman Daily News</a>.
Since Terracotta is located on South Grand Avenue where Main Street intersects, Baltz suspected her business would be a part of the percentage. She realized it was the perfect time to expand and use a Moscow location as a life raft to stay afloat in case of a downfall in Pullman.
Terracotta currently has 18 members and six instructors. Membership grants 24/7 access to the studio so people can come and go as they please. With Baltz becoming increasingly busy running the Pullman location and getting the Moscow location up and running, her son has been helping her run operations in Pullman.
“I just started working with pottery here a month ago,” Baltz’s son Logan Smylie said. “It has been a great way to meet people and find new creative perspectives.”
Baltz’s main goal for opening her pottery business was to share her passion with others for them to enjoy. Baltz grew up in a pottery studio and learned under professional artist Joan Ross from ages 8–18.
When Baltz went to attend WSU, she lost free time, could not commit to doing pottery and ended up quitting. She graduated and worked for WSU in the communication department. Baltz later transferred to work in Oregon, still not having practiced the art of pottery since high school.
Baltz sustained a serious head injury in 2020 that made her unable to do digital work. She could not work remotely for her job during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.
This situation caused Baltz to have a lot of free time on her hands. After years of not touching pottery, Baltz was craving to play with clay.
“It was hard to use my fingers after hitting my head and clay was something easy that I could practice with to help gain back my motor control,” Baltz said.
As Baltz got back into pottery, she started collecting and buying equipment with the idea of starting a business in mind. Baltz decided to officially quit her job and move back to Pullman to start Terracotta.
“To come as far as I have and not only have one studio but to be starting my second studio and live my dream doing pottery for a living is just amazing,” Baltz said.
Baltz is not the only one excited for Terracotta’s second location to open in Moscow.
Moscow resident Faith Berg has lived in Moscow since she was 7 years old, and she said it has always been an art-spirited town. The new addition to Moscow’s downtown will add more for the community to do and draw in more business to the area.
Terracotta’s Moscow building has undergone renovations, and the location just installed a new kiln, Baltz said. A manager is in place, and the location is open for member registration and children’s camp spots that are filling up fast.
“I think it will be a good investment especially since it is a college town,” Berg said. “There will be a lot of students that will want to go and try something new like that.”
Baltz said pottery has helped strengthen and restore pieces of her, and she hopes for others to find the same enjoyment she found in creating pottery.
“It’s been really cool to create a vibrant pottery community in the Palouse,” Baltz said. “I’m excited to see what the future brings.”

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Non-recyclable pizza boxes became recyclable at Pizza for the Planet, hosted by the nonprofit The Phoenix Conservancy April 20 at Ruby Street Park.
At the event, attendees burned pizza boxes and other biodegradable materials in a Kon-Tiki-style biochar kiln to make biochar.
“You can turn a lot of stuff like pizza boxes, grass and invasive species into biochar,” said Chris Duke, The Phoenix Conservancy executive director.
Biochar is a material that sequesters carbon from organic waste and is created through a process called pyrolysis. Materials like pizza boxes are burned at very high temperatures with very low oxygen, Duke said.
Once the process is complete, Duke said the stable carbon compounds can remain stable for hundreds of years.
“It’s a good soil amendment that we can use at our restoration sites,” said Shannon Collins, Palouse Prairie project manager at The Phoenix Conservancy. “We use it at some spots in Conservation Park and then we’ve also had people use it in their landscaping on private property.”
Biochar is great for areas with steep slopes or areas with poor soil quality, Collins said. One of the great qualities of biochar is the variety of ways its beneficial properties can be applied.
The nonprofit uses biochar, which Duke said can also function as a soil ameliorant, to correct soil that is too acidic or compacted.
“Biochar also acts like a small sponge that holds onto water and nutrients,” Duke said.
The Phoenix Conservancy hosted the event in collaboration with the Center for Civic Engagement, Associated Students of WSU and College Hill Association.
The frustration of being unable to recycle cardboard pizza boxes partly inspired the idea of Pizza for the Planet, Collins said.
“We loved eating pizza, but we hated that we couldn’t recycle the boxes,” Collins said. “We already had our biochar program going on where we would take weed waste and make it into biochar, so we decided to do an event where we just had a bunch of people bring pizza boxes and then we just repurpose all their boxes.”
Most pizza boxes made of cardboard go to landfills where it contributes to carbon dioxide and methane production. Turning pizza boxes into biochar is an alternative that not only helps keep pizza boxes out of the landfill, but also offers an alternative solution by making a substance with beneficial properties for soil, Collins said.
The nonprofit collected 330 pizza boxes in total at the event.
“I wanted to help out and make a difference here,” said Derek Carlos, Pullman resident and Pizza for the Planet attendee. “We had a lot of pizza boxes left over and thought it’d be a good idea to give to a friend for this event, especially on Earth Day.”

<content:encoded><![CDATA[WSU President Kirk Schulz’s 2025 retirement was announced on April 19, but the decision has been in the works since June 2023. 
Schulz said he sat down with the Board of Regents for his annual evaluation and said instead of finishing out his final three years, he wanted to put the board in a position where they can go into a presidential search during the summer of 2024. 
They had a robust discussion about this decision and met several times to discuss what the search would look like, how to manage the translation and how to manage the announcement, he said. 
He said they came to the decision to announce his retirement at the last regularly scheduled regents meeting of the academic year, and he is glad it is out. 
Schulz said once he retires, he will have a year of leave he will take starting in the summer and will use the time to write a book for higher education. 
“I want to do some mentoring of leaders at WSU and other places, and I want to help the new president in whichever way I can,” he said. 
When he does retire, he will miss the WSU community and the casual interactions he had with students that he probably will not have after next year, he said. 
He said he has been a university president both at WSU and in Kansas and it is hard to remember what life is like before being involved in that role. 
“I think I’ll miss that just a bit, walking through campus, seeing students having casual conversations,” Schulz said. “I know once I’m not doing the job anymore, [that] will be part of the thing I miss the most.”
Phil Weiler, WSU vice president for marketing and communications, said there are a lot of people who want to make the step to become WSU’s president and take on the six campuses. 
“There’s a lot that’s going on that makes this a very coveted job, so I think we’ll have lots of folks who are interested in the position,” he said. 
Weiler said he has learned a lot about leadership from Schulz and one of the things he appreciates is how Schulz recognizes that a senior leader needs to be a cheerleader for the institution. 
Sometimes, things go wrong and in a different direction than planned, and some people might become unmotivated. Weiler said Schulz is a glass half full person and while some things might not have turned out the way he wanted, he understands WSU has a lot going for itself and can find the good in every situation. 
“I think if your senior leader is feeling down, then everyone’s going to feel down,” Weiler said. “I think you need someone who’s got that positive attitude.”

<content:encoded><![CDATA[The Spring transfer portal season is in full swing. After losing a few depth pieces, the Cougs added to their secondary with a pair of Rebels and to their line with a former opponent in 2023.
WSU secured commitments from UNLV grad transfer safety Jerrae Williams and grad transfer corner Ricky Johnson III. Both announced their commitments via social media Tuesday.

In 2023, Williams had 24 tackles, one interception, a career-high three sacks and two fumble recoveries. In 2022 he had 54 tackles and two interceptions, totaling 79 tackles over three seasons with three fumble recoveries and two passes defended for the Rebels.
Johnson in 2023 had 36 tackles and seven pass breakups over 11 games. He has 78 tackles to go along with four interceptions, 10 pass breakups and a fumble recovery over his career at UNLV.

Williams and Johnson are the second and third transfers added to the Cougar secondary after adding Tyson Durant to the mix from Akron during the initial transfer period. They add extra veteran depth following the losses of the Cougars starting two safeties and corners to the NFL.
Williams is set to compete with redshirt junior Jackson Lataimua, redshirt freshman Adrian Wilson, senior Tanner Moku and many more under and upperclassmen.
Meanwhile, Johnson will compete, depending on whether he plays inside or outside, with returning corners in senior Kapena Gushiken and redshirt juniors Jamorri Colson and Stephen Hall.
Wazzu also added to their offensive line, securing a commitment from Northern Colorado lineman Austin Lawrence. The 6-foot, 5-inch redshirt junior played in 10 games for the Bears last season including at Gesa Field against the Cougs in week four. He announced his commitment via social media Tuesday.

Lawrence is a native of Puyallup, Washington, attending Puyallup High School before spending three seasons at UNC.
UNC running backs carried for 113.3 rushing yards per game behind him and the Bears offensive line in 2023, something the Cougs are looking to recreate in 2024. 
Despite returning four starting offensive linemen, the WSU offensive front was ravaged by injuries in the Spring (don’t capitalize -AA). Three of the four returning starters missed time during Spring camp and no offensive line has ever had too much depth.
One thing is for certain, the WSU secondary will look almost entirely different in 2024 with Williams and Johnson now in that mix as well, and the Cougar offensive line just gained necessary extra depth.

<content:encoded><![CDATA[In fall 2020, The Daily Evergreen hired a new reporter with no experience in journalism. Her only qualifications were her passion for creative writing and having her stats class kick her butt. 
That hiring changed the life of Alexandria Osborne, senior multimedia journalism major and Evergreen editor-in-chief. After two semesters working at the paper, she knew she had found her new passion, journalism. 
Osborne said The Daily Evergreen is the driving force behind her change into studying multimedia journalism and since her hiring in 2020, it has given her so many new opportunities and experience necessary to get several internships in the field, as well as avoiding the dreadful feeling of being bored. 
“I like being busy and I get bored really, really easily. So I like doing stuff and just being involved with everybody and talking to people,” she said. 
Over her three and a half years as a journalist, Osborne said she has worked as a reporter, copy editor, life editor, copy chief, managing editor and now in her current role as editor-in-chief. She has also worked as an intern for the Tri-City Herald and interned in Olympia for the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association in the spring 2023 semester.
Her internship with Olympia was especially beneficial to her learning. She said having to navigate a stressful environment where she had no way of coming in with all the knowledge of the world made it such a rewarding experience. 
“It was a nice stepping stone for me because I got to learn how to be in a professional setting while still in school and my advisors and friends made it such a great experience,” Osborne said. 
Now, she is graduating from Washington State University and has an internship lined up with the Spokesman-Review. 

Reflecting on her past four years, the Evergreen is at the center of her favorite memories. Whether late night in the newsroom, spending time with people her same age with similar career aspirations or just hanging out, the people she met made her college experience what it was.
But one person stands out as making a profound impact. Osborne said she did not meet Anna Adams, senior multimedia journalism major and Evergreen managing editor, until this past year. Despite the short time knowing each other, she said they’re like two peas in a pod and her one regret of being a Coug is not meeting Adams sooner. 
Adams said Osborne has also been a core part of her senior year, making late nights in the newsroom fun just because of her presence and being a part of her favorite memories. 
<figure id="attachment_178398" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-178398" style="width: 600px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-178398" src="https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466-600x400.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="400" srcset="https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466-600x400.jpg 600w, https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466-768x512.jpg 768w, https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466-300x200.jpg 300w, https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466-450x300.jpg 450w, https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466-310x207.jpg 310w, https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466-150x100.jpg 150w, https://dailyevergreen.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/0I4A0466.jpg 2001w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-178398" class="wp-caption-text"><a href="https://dailyevergreen.com/staff_profile/brandon-willman/">BRANDON WILLMAN</a> Anna Adams (L) and Alexandria Osborne (R) pose for senior pictures, April 20, in Pullman, Wash.</figcaption></figure>
“We immediately became best friends. She is my go-to person if I ever want to do anything,” Adams said. “She is super kind and helpful in many areas of my education.” 
When Lucas Grabeel, who played Ryan in the “High School Musical” series, came to Pullman to be a guest judge for “Cougs Got Talent,” the duo spotted Grabeel at the bar, but Osborne was the one to find the courage to go up and say hi. Adams said the interaction the two had with Grabeel had been a core memory and is so thankful for her friendship with Osborne.
In five years time, Osborne hopes to be working full time in a newsroom, but she said she has another goal in mind for herself.
A creative writing minor, she also hopes to have a book published within the next half decade. She is getting work she’s written published in the WSU campus literary journal LandEScapes and has been working on more side projects that she hopes one day see the publishing press. 
“At the end of the day, this is something I do for fun. It would be nice if I got a book published or something, but like, I’m not dead set that it has to be what I do,” she said. 
With an opportunity lined up out of college and a dream to be a published author, there is a lot going for Osborne. No matter where the wind takes her, Adams said she is confident her closest friend will make the most of it. 
“She is very good at what she does. She has taken control of the newsroom very well and I just really look up to her. I think she has great leadership skills and is going to do great things,” Adams said.
