A building that is part of the Edward R Murrow College Of Communications will be named after Kathi Goertzen, it was announced today. Goertzen was a long time anchor for KOMO 4 TV news here in Seattle, whose fight against a series of brain tumours, inspired a city and whose passing brought it to tears.
Kathi was a 1980 graduate of WSU and an avid Coug. The WSU Board Of Regents passed the resolution to name what is actually an addition to Murrow Hall that houses the Dean Suite, Faculty offices and test and research labs. For more details and a wonderful video by Eric Johnson, click here
