Behoove

Behoove is a verb used with an object. It means to be essential or dutiful. The formal construction is it behooves (someone) to do (something). However, most often the word is misused to mean the action benefits or gives gain to a person. Because this misuse is so prevalent, at least one dictionary we referenced has added advantageous as an alternative definition.

Interestingly, behoof comes from the same Old English behōf or profit. It is a noun which means an benefit or gain. The mind jumps to this being the reason for the misuse of behoove, but there is no evidence that is the case.

Most of next week is forecast to be rather stormy, with periodic rain showers, wind, and cool afternoons. Unlike recent weeks, this pattern would seem to favor stronger westerly flow and rain shadow effects. Therefore, central Washington may be rather dry some of the time, while the mountains could see significant rain totals. In fact, some high elevation snowfall should serve as a sobering reminder that winter is not necessarily over on the Cascade peaks.

The new NCAA NIL guidelines have numerous serious implications for both schools and student-athletes. Schools and student-athletes in states where NIL laws have become applicable, or will soon become applicable, should also be wary of any additional requirements or limitations.
