Interactions that can save lives - Palouse Driver Safety Campaign at WSU Transfer Alive! Orientation

Interactions that can save lives - Palouse Driver Safety Campaign at WSU Transfer Alive! Orientation

The past weekend, April 23rd to 25th, marked the second student orientation for the WSU students of 2019. This specific orientation focused in on, in and out of state students transferring to WSU. Most of the faces were excited and eager to join the Pullman community, WSU student lives, and many more things that WSU has to offer. This year, the Palouse Driver Safety Campaign, continued the opportunity to table for their Sunday's Resource Fair event.

Many families of parents, guardians, and grandparents, walked by and spoke to our representative, Emily Kaselen. She connected with over 50 individuals, including students and parents with some signing the pledge to be a safer driver and active passenger, while many took flyers with them to learn more about our campaign. The most individuals that Emily connected with, had major concerns about driving the distance, the farthest students being from the state of California. Luckily, with flyers in hand with the campaign's social media platforms and website information, students were able to gain an additional resource for driving safety here in Pullman and the Whitman County.

Thanks to the New Student Program's WSU Transfer Alive! Orientation and the Resource Fair for allowing us to continue to spread awareness about the importance of safe driving with our communities and sharing this public driver safety awareness campaign to our new transfer students and families that will ultimately help save lives of ones we love and care!


REMEMBER TO ALWAYS BE SAFE WHERE YOU ARE TRAVELING TO AND...

GO COUGS!
