The staff at WSU Insider hopes you make the most of your Memorial Day holiday.

New postings will resume Tuesday.

If you’re looking for thoughtful reading this holiday weekend, consider this 2020 article commemorating the life of Ronald J. Shurer II, a Washington State University graduate who received the Medal of Honor in recognition of his valor while deployed in Afghanistan.

He was honored in 2018 with the WSU Board of Regents Distinguished Alumnus Award and was recognized during that year’s Apple Cup, where he hoisted the Cougar flag and reveled in sharing his own family with his WSU family for the first time since leaving Pullman in 2001 to help fight terrorism.
