Bruce Shepard to appear on 'Inside Olympia' this week

Western Washington University President Bruce Shepard was interviewed recently by TVW's Austin Jenkins for a future episode of "Inside Olympia." The discussion focused on higher education funding in the Legislature plus other issues facing higher ed in the state.

The show airs initially at 7 and 10 p.m. Thursday evenings, but if the House or Senate is meeting for floor debate at the time, the show will be bumped.

The interview will be available for online viewing at tvw.org starting Thursday afternoon at around 5 p.m.
