Did you know the Shocker Store carries fresh sandwiches, desserts and other grab-and-go items? These options are perfect while on the way to class or for a quick lunch between meetings.

Supplies are limited each week. Swing by the Shocker Store in the Rhatigan Student Center to try them today.

Cops support shocks and you can too!

The WSU Police Department challenges all students, faculty and staff to help fill the Shocker Support Locker for students in need.

It would make a great Valentine’s Day gift if Shockers have security. Bring items (canned or dry food items, hygiene products, etc.) to the police department or anywhere else on campus during the month of February, and WSU police officers will pick them up and get them to the Shocker Support Locker.
