A Letter from Athletic Director Patrick Chun

By:

Dear Cougar Family:

Today, I begin my journey as your Director of Athletics and I am overwhelmed by the warmth, enthusiasm and passion of the Washington State family. As I mentioned at my introductory announcement, I am truly honored and humbled to serve our university.

I came to Pullman to be part of something special under the leadership of President Schulz. His vision for what our institution can become is inspiring and it is incumbent upon our Department of Athletics to do our small part in elevating Washington State. We must strengthen the bonds between athletics and academia and we must earn the goodwill and support of our campus community through our actions and our values.
