PULLMAN, Wash. — The Inland Northwest Blood Center will hold its semi-annual blood drive for Washington State University students, faculty and staff from 10 a.m.-5 p.m., March 4-5, in the Compton Union Building Ballroom.

The event is sponsored by WSU student organizations, including Rho Nu Nursing Club, Arnold Air Society of the Air Force ROTC, the Academy of Students of Pharmacy, FarmHouse and Omega Psi Phi fraternities, and Pullman Kiwanis Club.
