In the last four years, WSU has scored its best finish and highest point total in the history of the Athletic Directors Cup competition among NCAA schools. WSU s success on the gridiron in the 21st century - three consecutive 10-win seasons - has more than done its part to draw national attention to the Cougar sports programs. In the past four years, 13 Cougar teams have been represented in postseason competition. Facility improvements have also been among projects Sterk has tackled. WSU recently completed a major baseball field renovation and became the first collegiate program to have FieldTurf as its playing surface.

WSU Web site: Visit the award-winning Washington State University Web site, for more information. PULLMAN Location: Pullman is eight miles from the Washington-Idaho border, in the southeastern part of the state. It is eight miles west of Moscow, Idaho; 76 miles south of Spokane, Washington, and 32 miles north of Lewiston, Idaho. Pullman s Beginnings: Originally known as Three Forks, because the Missouri Flat Creek from the north, Dry Creek from the south, and the South fork of the Palouse River from the east converge at this point. The town became Pullman in One story is that the name came from George Pullman, the king of the great railroad sleeping-car. Pullman was incorporated in Climate: Dry and clear most of the year, with hot summers and cold winters. The average annual rainfall is 21 inches per year. Population: About 25,000, including WSU students. Pullman is built on hills: Washington State University is on College Hill. The other hills are Military, Pioneer and Sunnyside. Pullman and Moscow are Dreamtowns : Pullman and neighboring Moscow, Idaho, are the University Cities because WSU and the University of Idaho have their main campuses in the two respective cities, located eight miles apart. They are also Dreamtowns, according to Demographics Daily (Sept. 18, 2000). In a study, 632 U.S. cities with populations of 10,000-50,000 were evaluated with 141 of them called Dreamtowns because of their quality of life based on various criteria including vitality, supply of good jobs, freedom from stress, connection to cultural mainstream, support for schools, access to health care, low cost of living, and small-town character. Pullman has highly rated public schools: In a survey of 15,892 districts nationally, the Pullman School District was named one of the 100 Best in the U.S., according to the Sept./Oct issue of Offspring, parenting magazine from the editors of The Wall Street Journal s SmartMoney. THE PALOUSE The Geographic Area: Known as the Palouse ( Pah-loose ), an area between the moist forests of the Rocky Mountains and the dry scablands of Washington. Its irregularly shaped rolling hills were formed by the erosion of thick basalts, followed by a deposition of a loess soil which, with excellent waterholding ability, is the fertile basis for the rich agricultural production of the area. Beauty of the Palouse: A book, The Most Beautiful Place in the World, 1986 Friendly Press, edited by Jay Maisel, says the Palouse is the Louvre of farmlands. Four thousand square miles of rolling hills...it has the perfect combination of topography, weather, crops and farming methods to produce a stunning collection of... land-art. National Geographic,, June 1982, calls it A Paradise Called the Palouse. Early Inhabitants: Long before white explorers arrived, Indian tribes, including the Cayuse, Coeur d Alenes, Nez Perce, Palouse, Umatillas, Walla Wallas, Yakamas, and Spokanes, could be found within a 100-mile radius of Pullman. The Nez Perce are credited with the development of the famous Appaloosa horse. Moscow, Idaho, eight miles from Pullman, is home of the national Appaloosa Museum and Heritage Center. Lewis and Clark traveled near the Palouse: In 1805, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark followed an Indian trail across the Bitterroot Mountains of Idaho to the Clearwater River, near the Palouse region. They were the first white men to traverse the vast inland plateau. Their exploration opened up the Inland Empire to further exploration and settlement C O U G A R B A S E B A L L

3 HEART OF THE PALOUSE WSU enrolls more than 21,000 students statewide. Pullman is located 79 miles south of Spokane. The area offers opportunities for fun and relaxation.

5 TRADITIONS AND MISCELLANY TRADITIONS The Cougar Mascot In 1927, Governor Roland Hartley presented a cougar cub to the students of Washington State. This first cougar mascot was called Butch, to honor Herbert Butch Meeker of Spokane, who was WSU s gridiron star at the time. Butch II was presented to the students by Governor Clarence D. Martin in Butch III and IV were twin cubs, presented by Governor Arthur B. Langlie in January Governor Langlie presented Butch V in Butch VI, the last live mascot on campus, died in the summer of He had been presented to WSU by Governor Albert Rosellini in 1964 from the Seattle Zoo. The Cougar Monogram Randall Johnson, class of 1938, designed the original Washington State College monogram in It was originally used on the side of college trucks; later, it was used on the side of the stadium, on letterhead, and pennants. In 1959, when the institution s name was changed to Washington State University, Randall re-created the emblem to incorporate the U in place of the C. The Victory Bell In the late 1800s, the victory bell was mounted on the ground in the center of campus; it rang to start and dismiss classes in those early days. Today, it is located at the Lewis Alumni Centre and rung after a WSU football win. MISCELLANY The Founding: Doors opened in The Name: Began as Washington Agricultural College and School of Science; became known as Washington State College in 1905 and Washington State University in Academic Structure: Colleges of Agriculture and Home Economics, Veterinary Medicine, Engineering and Architecture (these th hree colleges were included in provisions of the Morrill Act of 1862 that provided for landgrant institutions), Business and Economics, Pharmacy, Sciences, Liberal Arts and Education and the Graduate School. Enrollment: 16,500 undergraduate students; 2,000 graduate students. Location: Pullman, Washington, eight miles from the Washington-Idaho border in the southeastern corner of the state. Campuses: WSU s main campus is in Pullman, with branch campuses located in Spokane, Tri-Cities (Pasco-Kennewick- Richland) and Vancouver. Climate: Dry and clear most of the year, with hot summers and cold winters. The average annual rainfall is 21 inches per year. The Town s Beginnings: Originally known as Three Forks, because the Missouri Flat Creek from the north, Dry Creek from the south, and South Palouse River from the east converge at this point. The town became Pullman in 1881, named after inventor tycoon George Pullman, who also gave his name to the railroad sleeping car. The town was incorporated in V. Lane Rawlins University President Jim Sterk Athletic Director Marcia Saneholtz Senior Associate Athletic Director Population: 24,500, including students. The Geographic Area: Known as the Palouse; an area between the moist forests of the Rocky Mountains and the dry scablands of Washington. Its irregularly shaped rolling hills were formed by the erosion of thick basalts, followed by a deposition of a loess soil which, with excellent water-holding ability, is the fertile basis for the rich agricultural production of the area. The Area s Beginnings: 10 to 30 million years ago, the Palouse was carved out by stream erosion following the second-largest known series of lava floodings in the world. Depths reached 5,000 feet. Roughly 15,000 years ago, near the end of the last ice age, a series of floods (as many as 100) scoured much of the land in Washington east of the Cascades, including the Palouse. The floods were the result of a large lake formed by ice blockage of the Clark Fork River. When the ice blockages broke, Lake Missoula spilled west with a volume of water estimated at 600 million cubic feet per second. That is more than the current volume of all the rivers in the world. In contrast, the Mississippi Flood of 1993 peaked at one million cubic feet per second. Some scientists estimate the sound of the flood could have been heard in Portland, Oregon, while others estimate Lake Missoula held the volume of water equal to Lake Erie and Lake Ontario combined. A huge rock found near Portland turned out to be a chunk of granite from Idaho, probably carried that far in an iceberg caught in the flood. During the floods silt was scoured from one location and deposited elsewhere. Some simply settled to the bottom as a new lake of some 3,500 square miles formed behind Wallula Gap near Walla Walla. Slowly the water ran on to the Pacific Ocean, leaving deposits of soil throughout that region. Much of the rich Palouse soil eventually blew into the region from these earlier deposits.
