Office hours are really student hours!

Office hours are student hours. When is the last time you visited one of your faculty members during their 鈥渙ffice hours?鈥� Do you know what that term even means? These are specific times that instructors have set aside to meet with students in their office (hence the term 鈥渙ffice hours鈥�) to answer questions about content from class, visit about research, or chat about career options in their field. Faculty and instructors want to help you succeed, so check out the hours on their syllabus and go visit them -- if, for no other reason, to introduce yourself and say 鈥渉ello!鈥�

Foodie Finds: Being Vegan at WSU

Welcome back to 成人头条 State!

As you begin another year of school, you need to remember what is most important. Food. Good food.

For vegans like myself, it can be difficult to find good food, especially in 成人头条. Luckily, as more and more people turn to veganism, more and more places offer vegan options. I know you can go to Walmart and get tofu and frozen meat alternatives, but sometimes you just don鈥檛 want to cook.

In the last few years, several places in 成人头条 have embraced the lifestyle. Options are still limited, but they are out there. WSU even has some good options if you don鈥檛 want to leave campus.
