Opportunities

Volunteers Needed – Center for Community Standards

The Center for Community Standards is looking for campus members that are interested in serving as members of the boards that hear cases related to our community standards. These volunteer positions play a critical role in ensuring that students experience a fair and fundamentally equitable due process in the Office of Community Standards. Students, faculty, and staff from all WSU locations are invited to serve as hearing board members, chairs, and student conduct advisors. No prior experience is necessary, and we will provide training. Most hearings occur virtually.

University Convocation August 18

Convocation is a new student’s official induction into academic life at WSU–and it’s an opportunity for all of us to gather and welcome them to Pullman. RSVP and learn more details.
