    An amazing court for Cougar basketball. When you're hear you can feel everyone's love for the Cougs

    I ventured here for a women's basketball game to see Native American basketball phenoms Shoni…read moreSchimmel and her sister Jude. They were on the Louisville Cardinal's team and were in town to play WSU. The game was pretty awesome, and went down to the last minute. Shoni did not disappoint. Her teams offense was clearly run through her, and this made it hard for her to totally dominate the game, but she was able to make her entire team better, and ultimately too much for the Cougs. As for the Stadium, it's a decent little venue. I've actually been to this Stadium a few times. The WSU annual pow wow (known as the Pah-Loots-Pu Celebration) is also held at this venue in April. I managed to grab some decent general admission seats fairly close to courtside for the Schimmel game. There are food options here, and also a WSU gift store as well. I highly applaud organizations of WSU for putting together a great evening of basketball and culture. I ended up parking just outside the Stadium on a nearby street (didn't pay). I definitely plan on coming back here if the Schimmel sisters are here again, or for a pow wow.

    Beasley Coliseum, home of Cougar basketball and the like!…read more Beasley is a pretty decent venue and pretty adaptable. The majority of the time I'm in the coliseum is for basketball, especially now that the season has started up again! For most games there is plenty of seating but if you want a seat closer to the action rather than in the upper tiers, it's best to arrive earlier rather than later. Zzu Cru of course, has first priority and get into games half an hour (I believe) before everyone else (if they're wearing their Zzu Cru shirt). One of the few games I've seen that the seats have been packed are the men's basketball games against University of Washington. I was literally in the last row of the upper section. Still had a pretty good view though. One of the more recent additions to the coliseum is the big screen in the center of the arena. It has pretty nice visuals and it's nice to have the scoreboard in the center like that. Plus it's great for instant replays that you may have missed. The aesthetics of the coliseum have been improved upon as well, I noticed the other day that there are new graphics spanning around the arena with the fight song lyrics. It looks pretty snazzy! I've also been to concert in Beasley, it was the Blues Brothers when they came for Dad's Weekend a few years ago, they had one end of the coliseum set up with the stage and seats on the floor. It was a pretty decent show (and fun for someone who grew up with them). A couple times a year they also turn the outer walkway area into a space for vendors for craft fairs and plant sales. It's pretty nice to just do an indoor loop to check out all the stands. Beasley also has an awesome cougar logo on the top...although you can only see it by air or photo.

    All previous reviews of the CUB are good. This went in my sophomore year or at least was finally…read moreopened. The building had all sorts of new eco friendly materials. 30% of the building was from the previous student building union or so they say. Just looked at the website: "The CUB incorporates several new, green-friendly features including water saving flush valves, efficient radiant heating and cooling, and extensive recycling facilities. Additionally, the building structure includes recycled construction material from the 2008 CUB rennovation. During construction, over 90% of the building materials were recycled. Over 11 million pounds of debris removed from the CUB during the renovation avoided the Whitman County Landfill" It was a transition with student organizations moving in but eventually things settled down. Lots of areas for presentations, group events, just just a place to hang and study. The Bookie (campus bookstore) is located here for your needs. Clothing can be purchased. Food bought. Downstairs they have a few bank branches. Even a nice Kinkos style copy and mail room, Cougar Copies. Lots of guest speakers will use the ballrooms for events. Greek life will rent them out also. Nice view of Martin Stadium from the upper floors. I do enjoy how the building is built into the ground with a ton of natural light.

    Kids these days have it made! The transformation from the old CUB to the new is nothing short if…read morejaw dropping! I will always miss the Lair, but the amount of space that student groups received was a huge upgrade. The common areas are awesome to have meetings in or just hang out and having lots of dining options as well as the Bookie right there make it very convenient.
