The graduate students in the Murrow College of Communication at Washington State University have established this group in order to communicate information and events among our cohort. Known as Comm Grad, the group strives for a feeling of family among students from a diverse range of background and situations.

The Daily Evergreen covers local issues, gives young journalists real-world training in writing, editing and management, and provides a platform for diverse voices. We publish online every day and in print on Thursdays.

The paper is independent from Washington State University. Students have extensive autonomy and complete control over content.

We welcome students of all majors and experience levels, If you’d like to work with us, you can find a form on our website or on Handshake.

KUGR is an on-campus radio station which will launch its new hybrid format in fall 2011. The station will play a mix of top 40 (contemporary hits), charted alternative and charted triple A during automated hours. Students have the opportunity to host a two-hour weekly radio show from political talk to sports and everything in between. Some shows have become popular because of the interesting musical personality of their playlists. KUGR also carries selected Cougar sports such as basketball and baseball, which students can call live.

We are a student organization that aims to involve past, current, and future Murrow Cougs in the Murrow College through various recruitment and retention events. We are for students, by students.

Current students can join the ambassadors at Murrow Minutes and hang out and ask questions every week.

We are an interview-based club meaning to be an ambassador you must be interviewed and accepted. New ambassador interviews happen in the spring and summer. If a student is interested in becoming an ambassador, we encourage them to attend Murrow Minutes and any other ambassador events.

Members of the Washington State University PRSSA-Bateman team gain valuable skills and build lasting bonds through creative collaboration and dedicated teamwork. Each team consists of 4-5 students from the Edward R. Murrow College of Communication, who are selected through a competitive application process. Team members are required to enroll in and complete two 1-credit courses, one in the Fall semester and the second in the Spring semester.

Team members will meet every week during the designated class period for at least one hour. During the implementation phase of the campaign, from February through March, students should expect to spend 8-10 hours a week on the competition. Students are also required to join PRSSA for the year they participate in the competition.

The final deliverable is a campaign summary report, which is an excellent portfolio piece. Three finalists are selected by a panel of industry experts and members of the PRSA national organization. The first place team receives $3,500 and a trophy; second place receives $2,500 and a plaque, and third place receives $1,500 and a plaque. All teams are recognized at the PRSSA National Conference. The 2015-16 WSU PRSSA-Bateman Team was awarded Honorable Mention in the national competition.
