Better Access to the Best Orthopedic Care: Athletic Training Program Fast-tracks Care for Kids “Are you a man of faith?” That wasn’t the question Don Renz was expecting when he met with orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Ed Tingstad. “Someone is watching out for you,” Dr. Tingstad went on to explain, “Because your arm is broken in 5 places, but not a bone is out of place. You my friend, do not need surgery.” With a sling and a perhaps a silent prayer, Don was back to his shift at Bennett Lumber with even greater appreciation for "Dr. T" and the Pullman Regional Hospital Orthopedic Center of Excellence. This wasn’t the first time Don had heard of Dr. Tingstad. A little more than 3 years ago, Dr. Tingstad and his fellow orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Steve Pennington, championed an athletic training program in partnership with the hospital’s Orthopedic Center of Excellence and four local high schools.

“Doctors like Dr. T are here for us, and through the hospital’s athletic training program, they are here for our kids too,” said Don. “The Logger Booster Club is proud to support this program. It’s all about the kids.” Learn more about the Regional High School Athletic Training Program pullmanregional.org/athletic-training

They also wanted to support the city of Pullman, and purchased 140 gift cards to local restaurants and Bella Sumner, Kappa Kappa Gamma philanthropy chair and fundraiser organizer, said businesses with the funds.

Home-ward Bound A Virtual Fur Ball

“… And now, the moment you’ve been waiting for…”

Honey, grab the catnip and dog treats! The Parade of Pets is starting!

You’re invited! The 14th Annual “faux” Fur Ball will be held virtually at the end of February, 2021. We will bring some fun into these home-bound times, and raise a bit to help community critters on their Homeward Bound journey. Events include a behind-the-scenes shelter tour, videos by experts (think wine! think pets!), demonstrations (think making dog treats!), and silent auction bidding. All will be on offer the week proceeding the main event. Fur Ball will conclude with a grand finale and the Parade of Pets on 2/27. Please plan to drop in and join us! Event details to be posted 2/1/21 at whitmanpets.org/furball.

Pullman Community Update 5

To state the obvious—2020 has been a hard year! The shelter has been challenged on multiple fronts. COVID-19 forced the staff to implement restrictions on public visitations while at the same time the number of animals was higher than ever. COVID-19 also brought grief to the staff when one of the people who had fostered for several years died from COVID complications. Managing to soldier on through this has not been easy. But occasionally, light has shined Shelby Vasquez through these dark days. Assistant Director of Shelter Operations One such light is Shelby Vasquez. She is passionate about placing animals into their furever home and sees working with animals as a life-long career. Shelby has worked for WCHS since 2018 and volunteered for several years while earning her BS in Wildlife Ecology from WSU. Shelby was promoted to the Assistant Director of Shelter Operations after being an adoption counselor and overseeing donor communications. Shelby’s knowledge is matched by her heart. A few days ago, a dog named Indigo finally went home after being at the shelter for far too long. Shelby had tears in her eyes as she said goodbye to this good dog! Shelby is grateful to the volunteers who are the backbone of the shelter. With such a small paid staff, the help of volunteers who are willing to do the dirty work as well as the fun jobs like socializing with the animals is critical. She is also grateful for the fosters who take in animals until they are ready for adoption. If you are interested in being a volunteer, please reach out to the shelter staff at shelter@ whitmanpets.org. They would be delighted to welcome you into the WCHS volunteer pack. Who knows, you might be the recipient of a big, wet puppy kiss!

Prodigy Construction and Pullman Building Supply—THANK YOU!

Star Pet Meet Mr. Tubbs and His Sidekick Dumpling!

There are words for people like George Farwell, Brian Oliver, and Tyler Garrett: ASTONISHING. AMAZING. INSPIRING – not to mention – TALENTED. SKILLFUL. GENEROUS. These three men put their expertise to work so that the shelter would have a new building. YAY!

The handsome cat in front is Mr. Tubbs. His furever friend in back is Dumpling. This pair was brought to WCHS because their owner passed away. Mr. Tubbs is a 10-yearold senior guy, but just barely! With a dedicated owner to help him lose weight, he could have several good years ahead of him since he is in good health. He is a shy guy, but very sweet. Dumpling is 6-years old. She is FIV+, so she should be indoor only so that she doesn't spread this to others (via deep bite wounds). She is very friendly with Mr. Tubbs. Since they are already bonded and compatible and rely on each other for comfort, they are a bonded pair and must be adopted together! FIV compromises her immune system, so she needs to be kept indoors and vaccinated regularly. Their adoption fees were generously sponsored by a kind donor. We encourage you to donate to our end of the year Giving Tuesday fundraiser or to sponsor another adoption in lieu of the adoption fee. They are spayed/neutered, microchipped, dewormed, vaccinated, FIV/FeLV/ Heartworm tested, and have been seen by a vet.

SHELTER 1340 SE Old Moscow Road, Pullman • shelter@whitmanpets.org Shelter hours: Open: 1-6 PM Monday-Saturday.

When George Farwell of Prodigy Construction heard that the shelter needed a new storage building, he said, “Let me help you make that happen.” He worked with Brian Oliver from Pullman George Farwell, Prodigy Construction, getting ready Building Supply (PBS) to assemble to hang the door. the materials. Tyler Garrett, CEO & President of PBS, approved providing project materials at cost, and they donated paint and a window for natural light as well! George assembled his team who built the storage shed in record-breaking time. It is beautiful. Solid. Functional. It will mean that food can be stored in a dry and secure building. WCHS is humbled that these good people gave their time, talent, and profit margin because they care so deeply about homeless animals. It is a breathtaking example of the generous spirit that lives in our community. A thousand puppy kisses and kitten purrs to Prodigy Construction and Pullman Building Supply for making our dream of a new shed come true! THANK YOU!

COMMUNITY COLLEGES OF SPOKANE AT PULLMAN

JANUARY 2021

Campus Matters We inquired with Patrick Forster, Assistant Dean at the Pullman Center of Community Colleges of Spokane, about the current state of and outlook for instruction and operations at our organization. Here is an excerpt of what we learned (full version at bit.ly/ pullmancenter0121): What are you looking forward to in the new year at the CCS Pullman Center? Leaving the public health crisis behind! Soon, we will have been operating exclusively online for a year. And while I am proud that we did not lose a single instructional day on our academic schedule, I am keenly aware of the hardships many of us have Patrick Forster suffered. We have had to keep ourselves, our loved ones, and our organizations going and shoulder the strains in our personal, educational, and work experiences. We are ready to reopen our doors to the community and throw a big party! Ok, and until that party date at the CCS Pullman Center? First and foremost, we need to ensure continuity of services and do so at the highest quality possible. We want our current students to move to program completion on their preferred schedule, and we want new students to embark on their path of study without any delay in the coming months. Thanks to our fantastic faculty and broad support from our CCS district offices, we have been able to deliver up to this point. Second, we want to integrate certain developments thrust upon us by the public health crisis, but which have the potential to, or already did improve, our operations. In the recent fall term, we had three STEM faculty working with grant support on our science courses' development and design. What in particular are you suggesting? Something that most seasoned educators have long known, but that the past months have driven home time and again: The relational essence of teaching and learning and, indeed, of the entire educational system. Education doesn't merely consist of information sharing and knowledge validation. Just curating content and putting it online doesn't suffice; that's available with AI, Google Scholar, and an internet connection. Putting relationships and engagement at the core of our online instruction and services has helped translate, rather than simply transfer, our operations to the online realm. (…) How is this going to mesh with the role of a community college? I see these developments as a renewal of the community college mission. In most respects, we have achieved broad access to higher education; now, we focus relentlessly on timely completion of meaningful credentials and degrees, attention to viable career paths and lifelong workplace skills, and responsiveness to community development and workforce needs. (…) You are in your third year with CCS; what stands out to you about the Pullman Center?

ABE/GED/HS+ Join our Adult Basic Education or complete your GED or high school diploma with us now! High school completion is a competency-based program for adults 18 years or older, which credits you for previous education, work experience, and a GED score. Our high school completion courses are available online and each student has an individualized study plan. With our open enrollment, you can start today. Call us 509.279.6458.

I think my previous responses illustrate the quality and ambitions of the people at our Center. But I also want to mention the extraordinary context in which our Center operates. People in Pullman and around the Palouse know and deeply care about their educational institutions. Mayor Glenn Johnson is a leading advocate for education regionally and state-wide [Dr. Johnson currently chairs the Board of Trustees at CCS and serves on Washington State Association of College Trustees (ACT)]. Finally, our connections to the Pullman and other School District and, especially, our partnership with WSU allow us to serve Pullman and Whitman County communities we could not achieve by ourselves. Maintaining and deepening that connected and, often, collaborative approach to educational services and operations nourishes our Pullman Center. I believe it strengthens our partner organizations and amplifies the collective impact the education community has and will have in our region. Patrick Forster joined Community Colleges of Spokane in August 2018 and leads the Pullman Center operations as Assistant Dean. Patrick has over twenty years of organizational evaluation and development experience for higher education and community education non-profits. He and his family enjoy the Palouse and spend much of their time in the great outdoors of the region. Patrick claims to make and serve the best (office) espresso on the Palouse, a claim he looks forward to putting to the test as soon as the public health context permits a resumption of operations at the CCS Pullman Center.

12 Pullman Community Update

Reopening Our Schools Welcome to a New Year and the scheduled start of in-person learning! It is an exciting time for students in Pullman. The District Re-Opening team designed two learning experience models (options) for students: In-Person Learning and Distance Learning. Families have chosen models that work best for them regarding the safety of their student. We have slowly started to bring students back into the classroom while following COVID guidelines. The re-opening team worked continuously since last Spring creating a plan for a safe opening of schools and to implement best practices to mitigate the risks associated with Covid-19. Our classrooms have been modified to increase social distancing, signage has been installed throughout the building to guide students, and our schedule has been modified to allow for more time for mask breaks, hand washing, and opportunities to access outdoor learning spaces. A stronger emphasis will be placed on social emotional learning as we implement the Second Step program in all of our K-5 classrooms. Partnering with families has and will continue to be crucial this year as we face many obstacles due to the global pandemic. We appreciate your support as you work with students at home to practice safety protocols such as wearing a mask and hand washing. We encourage families to stay connected and informed by following our district website for important updates https://www.pullmanschools. org/.

ALTERNATIVES TO VIOLENCE OF THE PALOUSE

14 Pullman Community Update

JANUARY 2021

January is Stalking Awareness Month Join Alternatives to Violence of the Palouse this January as we work to raise awareness about the dangers of stalking and how you can best help someone who has been personally affected.

What is stalking? A pattern of behavior directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to feel fear.

Over 40 years of leadership in advocating for peaceful families, relationships, and communities. • 24-Hour Crisis Hotline • Advocacy-based counseling • Emergency confidential shelter • Legal & medical advocacy

Stalking behaviors could include: • Showing up at a person’s home, workplace, or school, uninvited • Repeated, unwanted, calling, texting, DM’s • Monitoring phone, computer, or social media accounts

• Child advocacy • Community presentations & outreach • Violence prevention programming • Support groups • Information & referrals All services are confidential and free of charge.

• Entering a person’s home without permission • Unwanted gifts, cards, letters, etc. What can you do to help? • Support a friend: If your friend or family member feels uncomfortable with attention they are receiving from their partner, classmate, friend, family, you can help. Listen, believe them, and show them support. Find someone you can talk to about the situation. (Like ATVP!) Ensure safety for your friend. • Talk about it: Talk to those in your life about healthy and unhealthy behaviors in all of their relationships. • Respect other people’s boundaries! Every person deserves the right to set their own boundaries and limitations. If someone tells you they don’t like something or that they need space, respect what they are saying and don’t force them.

Make sure to like our Facebook page to learn more about how to be involved and to learn more about stalking and other issues that face our community!

• Does the person have freedom of movement? Can the person freely leave where they live? Are there unreasonable security measures? • Does the person appear to be coached on what to say? • Is the person often in the company of someone to whom he or she defers? Or someone who seems to be in control of the situation, e.g., where they go or who they talk to? • Is a juvenile engaged in commercial sex acts?

The Food & Shelter Folks

Thank You, Community! We’re Pulling through the Pandemic Together We are so grateful to live in community where people have each other’s backs and help each other out when times get tough. You stepped up to the plate in 2020 with donations to help out neighbors like Jessica, who lost her job during the pandemic and is dealing with the stress of trying to pay for rent, food, and utilities. Jessica is a single mother with two school-age children. She lives in a small town in rural Whitman County and worked in a local small business, and worked some evenings as a server in a local restaurant. With her hard work, she has been able to afford a modest home for her family, even while living paycheck to paycheck. Then, the restaurant where Jessica worked reduced its hours and was not able to keep her working. Her office job also asked her to reduce hours while they made changes to adjust during the pandemic. Jessica started using the food pantry for the first time ever to help keep the family fed. She usually pays her rent first every month, but she missed two rent payments before coming to see us at Community Action Center. Families like Jessica’s were able to stay afloat in 2020 thanks to YOUR flexible funding for Community Action Center’s housing and food programs. We are helping families catch up on rent, mortgage, and utility payments so they can stay in their homes. We are coming alongside families to keep their own and their children’s bellies full of healthy foods. THANK YOU! To support this work, go to www.cacwhitman.org/donate

Community Food We are taking food donations by appointment! We humbly ask our generous community members to call the front desk (509-3349147) to make an appointment to donate food. We still encourage monetary donations. Your dollar will go farther in buying food than if you spend it yourself at the store!

• Dietary restriction foods (gluten-free, sugar-free, lowsodium, vegan, etc.) • Diaper wipes

WASHINGTON STATE UNIVERSITY

18 Pullman Community Update

JANUARY 2021

WSU announces COVID-19 testing plan for Spring 2021 semester Washington State University’s comprehensive COVID-19 program for its Pullman campus will include robust testing procedures and other measures to keep the community safe. “Our testing plan for the Spring 2021 semester is guided by the scientific expertise of our faculty and staff, the strength of our community partnerships and valuable lessons learned during this ongoing pandemic,” said WSU President Kirk Schulz. “But plans only get us so far, and we’re counting on the WSU community to stick to the plan and to continue following public health guidelines.” The University’s plan includes protocols for students, faculty, staff as well as visitors to the Pullman campus.

Arrival testing WSU Pullman students living or working on campus will be required to participate in arrival screening for COVID-19. All students returning to Pullman are expected to be screened at the start of the semester, with hundreds of students per day being tested. Students living on campus will have to self-quarantine until they have their results and, if positive, they will be moved to isolation housing provided by the University. WSU Pullman is also encouraging all students living off campus to participate in arrival screenings upon returning from winter break. The majority of classes will continue to be held online in the spring.

Ongoing testing WSU Pullman will provide ongoing voluntary tests for students and employees throughout the semester in partnership with WSU One Health Diagnostics and Incyte Labs. Students should expect requests to participate in at least two additional COVID-19 tests during the semester. Plus, WSU’s Paul G. Allen School for Global Animal Health is partnering with other University offices to conduct wastewater sampling and analysis for the virus that causes COVID-19. These screenings will serve as a predictive indicator of potential outbreaks in populations within the WSU Pullman campus

Washington Army National Guard ramps up WSU’s COVID-19 response They didn’t wait to be called. The Washington Army National Guard approached WSU Pullman with the offer to help the University face the unprecedented challenges of the persisting novel coronavirus pandemic. Despite transitioning to mostly distance learning for the 2020-2021 academic year, an unexpected amount of students returned to Pullman for the Fall 2020 semester, and the WSU campus experienced an outbreak. Members of the Washington Army National Guard arrived in Pullman in early September to help organize testing for COVID-19. Originally scheduled to leave in midNovember, the team of volunteer citizen-soldiers stayed on at the request of WSU, conducting—on a typical day— anywhere from 30 to 90 COVID-19 tests. “You can see the appreciation and thankfulness in the faces of those who come for testing and hear it when they say thank you,” said U.S. Air Force Technical Sgt. Angela Brown. She’s a Coug who graduated from the College of Nursing on the WSU Health Sciences Spokane campus in 2018. So is the WSU testing site’s officer in command, Lt. Darcy Ailles, who graduated from WSU Pullman in 2019. “Having been a Pullman resident the last six years, I wanted to come back and help those who helped me,” Ailles said.

community. WSU will also sample wastewater from off-campus residences as a means of monitoring disease spread.

Community health Current requirements, including daily attestation prior to visiting any WSU facility and the use of face coverings, will continue during the Spring 2021 semester. Contact tracing conducted by counties in partnership with WSU will also continue and remain critical to reducing exposure and the spread of the virus in the months to come. For more information about WSU’s COVID-19 response, including testing, visit wsu.edu/covid-19.

WSU honors MLK WSU is celebrating the life and legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. with special online programming, organized by the Office of Outreach and Education, in January, February, and March. Keynote speakers are: • Jan. 21, 6 p.m.—Filmmaker, musician, and activist Bree Newsome Bass was arrested in 2015 for removing a Confederate flag from the grounds of the South Carolina state house.

The unit saw an increased number of test requests when stationed near off campus apartments, with landlords giving incentives such as rent reductions and gift cards for their residents to get tested. The Guard also experienced an increase when testing was made available to WSU faculty and staff on Sept. 29. “We are indebted to the men and women of the Washington National Guard for their willingness to lend a hand to our community amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic,”WSU President Kirk Schulz said. “They are putting themselves at risk doing this important work in an efficient way that works to ensure the continued health of our community.”

School of Music hosts virtual concerts The WSU School of Music is livestreaming several performances in January through its YouTube channel: WSUPullmanMusic. • Jan. 22, 7:30 p.m.—The Faculty Artist Series features pianist Fabio Menchetti in his first WSU School of Music faculty recital.

• Feb. 9, 6 p.m.—Anthony Jack, assistant professor of education at Harvard University, studies the overlooked diversity among lower-income undergraduates: the “doubly disadvantaged,” or those who enter college from local, typically distressed public schools, and the “privileged poor,” or those who do so from boarding and other private schools. • March 29, 6 p.m.— Seattle-based Ijeoma Oluo is the author of the New York Times bestseller So You Want to Talk about Race.
