Start your WSU Pullman Fall Family Weekend with the Brelsford WSU Visitor Center!
We’re here to help with everything from basic weekend logistics like parking, transportation, wayfinding and directions to plotting your adventures and activities with dining, shopping and local attractions, and events planned specifically for Cougs and their crews!
Health Equity Circle is hosting “Advocacy 101” with the Washiongton Physicians for Social Responsibility (WPSR). Staff and experienced volunteer advocates from WPSR will share how health professionals have successfully advocated for policies in the past and they will teach various advocacy skills. This event is open to students and community members!

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are polymeric porous materials consisting of metal nodes and organic ligands that extend to form periodic crystal structures. They have ultrahigh porosity (up to 90% free volume) and enormous internal surface areas (extending beyond 6000 m2/g). These properties, together with the extraordinary degree of tunability for both the metal centers and the organic ligands, make MOFs of great interest for broad applications in gas storage, high-capacity adsorbents, membranes, thin-film devices, catalysis, and biomedical imaging [1]. However, the “ideal crystals” limit the pore sizes, the exposure of catalytic sites, the diffusion and accessibility of large molecules. Defect engineering introduce missing linker and missing node defects into MOFs is an exciting concept for tailoring material properties, which opens up great opportunities not only in sorption and catalysis, but also in controlling challenging physical characteristics such as band gap, magnetic and electrical/conductive properties [2]. In this talk, I will demonstrate MOFs and defect-engineering in Zr-MOFs with typical defect-creating methods.
WSU Athletics, the Student Entertainment Board, and Beasley Coliseum are joining forces for bringing “two-events in one” to WSU Fall Family Weekend Friday, November 3!
This special event will open with ZZU Mania and will feature both Men’s and Women’s Basketball Teams showing off their skills on the Beasley half-court. Yung Gravy then takes the stage and performs the hits that earned him two RIAA-Certified Platinum Records and five RIAA-certified Gold Records.
The annual Family Weekend Vocal Extravaganza Concert will take place on Friday, November 3, 2023, at 7:30pm in Bryan Hall Theatre. Featuring all five of WSU’s vocal ensembles, the evening will include a wide variety of music from different styles and time periods. Opera Workshop will present a…
