SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — Washington State University plans to announce a major gift to the school on Thursday.

News conferences are scheduled around the state as the Pullman school will accept a donation for its new School for Global Animal Health, which studies diseases that move from animals to humans. The amount of the gift and the donor have not been released.

Also, the school’s Board of Regents will hold a special meeting Thursday to endorse a major fund-raising campaign, and to deal with the transfer of funds for the Ruckelshaus Center, which works to find collaborative approaches to solve the region’s problems.
