As if freshmen weren’t confused enough right about now…
Students at Washington State University did a double take when they were handed their free planners at their bookstore this week. The university bookstore, called the Bookie, distributed free agendas with a photo of rival school University of Washington on the cover, according to the Huffington Post.
According to a WSU official, the publisher mistakenly mixed up the similar-sounding universities when choosing a photo.
Educators told KREM the mistake wasn’t a “huge deal.”
Local restaurant Munchy’z Hot Dogs posted a picture of the planner:
Hey @WSUPullman, can you ask the Bookie why they decided that a UW building belonged on #WSU planners? (h/t nix831) pic.twitter.com/sQBQer9jUv

According to the Seattle Times, there’s no word on whether they’ll swap the photo for something more… realistic.
