With 41 gender-inclusive restrooms added over summer break, OSU now has at least 207 gender-inclusive restrooms in at least 75 buildings, according to Gabriel Merrell, the director of access and affirmative action with Equal Opportunity and Access.

OSU expands gender-inclusive facilities Efforts continue to improve restroom availability

By David DeHart, News Contributor Currently, at least 207 publicly accessible gender-inclusive restrooms in at least 75 buildings are on the Oregon State University.

The university is continuing to take steps to expand gender inclusivity in restroom facilities throughout campus for the new academic year.

These gender-inclusive restrooms, which are available to people of any gender, have been installed in many new locations, and standing university policy requires these facilities to be established in new and renovated building construction projects, according to Gabriel Merrell, the director of access and affirmative action with Equal Opportunity and Access. This policy has aided the expansion of gender-inclusive restrooms for years, and its progress continues in the new academic year.

Over the summer, 41 existing single-user restrooms were converted from genderspecific to gender-inclusive facilities, according to Merrell. The list of restrooms that could be easily converted was developed through a survey of the campus conducted by students involved with the Pride Center and the Coalition of Graduate Employees in the spring.

According to Cindy Konrad, the assistant director of the Pride Center, an updated campus map on the OSU website now includes information about the locations of gender-inclusive restrooms to make it easier for people to find the appropriate facilities for them.

“For some trans and nonbinary people, especially those who are questioned or receive negative responses when they enter gendered spaces, gender-inclusive restrooms feel safer,” Konrad said in an email.

“Gender-inclusive restrooms also are helpful for people with children who don’t feel safe sending their children into a restroom alone.”

Teresita Alvarez-Cortez, associate director of University Housing and Dining Services, says UHDS is making efforts to expand access to gender-inclusive restrooms in residence halls. Last academic year, one residence hall made a gender-inclusive multi-stall restroom available, and this year these inclusive facilities have been expanded to approximately

two gender-inclusive multi-stall restrooms in each residence hall.

“Ultimately, this is about meeting the needs of all residents and creating communities that are more inclusive,” Alvarez-Cortez said in an email.

Some parents have expressed concerns about residents of different genders using the same restroom and possibly not residing on the floor with their preferred facilities, according to Alvarez-Cortez.

“One misconception was that students have to use particular restrooms on the floor they reside,” Alvarez-Cortez said in an email.

“In fact, any resident can use any restroom of their choosing in their building.”

According to Merrell, policy changes have already facilitated the expansion of additional inclusive facilities, and will continue to do so in the future.

“Since we have built this into the construction standards, when we renovate or build new buildings there is automatically going to be a single-user restroom in the facility somewhere—at least one,” Merrell said.

Many recently renovated buildings have even exceeded these baseline standards, according to Merrell. For instance, the Learning Innovation Center has genderinclusive facilities on every floor.

In the process of converting restrooms to be more gender-inclusive, it has also been possible to expand accessibility for people with disabilities, according to Merrell. These efforts work well together because they are both part of establishing infrastructure that embodies the ideal of universal design.

“Universal design is a concept that was developed for people with disabilities in the built environment—in buildings—and the concept is that we should design products, facilities, things to be usable by everyone without the need for adaptation or specialized design,” Merrell said. “The idea of universal design is intersectional—it’s not just about disability, it’s about all individuals.“ According to Alvarez-Cortez, listening to feedback from students will be one of the most important steps in the ongoing effort to expand inclusivity for people of all genders on campus.

Fistulated cow provides educational opportunities College of Veterinary Medicine utilizes large animal herds for research, firsthand experience for students

By Avalon Kelly, News Contributor On the west side of Oregon State University’s campus, grazing quietly in one of the College of Veterinary Medicine’s many pastures, is a cow who is unlike your average dairy cow. C-Cow, as she’s known by the students and faculty, is a fistulated cow, meaning there is a plastic cannula in her side, opening a window into one of her four stomachs. She is, quite literally, a “hole-y” cow.

Despite the obvious hole in her side, C-Cow leads a normal life and enjoys all the activities of a normal cow, according to Lyn Smith-Gloria, the media and communication director for the College of Veterinary Medicine.

“It doesn’t have any impact at all. We do monitor her just to make sure that the cannula is clean and in place and capped and so forth, but other than that, she’s a regular cow,” Smith-Gloria said.

The digestive fluid found in her stomach, which is rich in bacteria and nutrients, can be used to treat other cows and calves who come into the veterinary hospital with digestive issues, according to Smith-Gloria. C-Cow also aids in the

4 • DAILYBAROMETER.COM • WEEK OF MONDAY, OCT. 9, 2017

college’s outreach, allowing fifth and sixth graders in the Adventures in Learning program to look inside her stomach to learn about livestock and digestion.

Another feature of C-Cow’s job is to serve as a member of the College of Veterinary Medicine’s teaching herd, according to Smith-Gloria. This herd, composed of 35 llamas and alpacas, as well as about 15 horses and two cows, allows veterinary students to gain firsthand experience in handling large animals.

“Most of our students have very little large animal handling experience; they come from the city, they’ve worked with dogs and cats, and some of them have volunteered at wildlife refuges and have handled wildlife, but most of them have not been around big animals,” Smith-Gloria said. “So part of large animal medicine class is just getting them used to handling big animals, and our teaching herd is great for that because these animals are used to being around lots of people, they like people, they’re easy-going.”

According to Smith-Gloria, the teaching herd is a key com-

ponent of the veterinary student’s education and receives top-notch care as a result. Three full-time animal attendants and eight part-time students are devoted to caring for the herd—it even has its own veterinarian.

One of the veterinarians working with the teaching herd is Dr. John Schlipf, an associate professor with the College of Veterinary Medicine.

“The teaching herd has been here in some form pretty much since the school started,” Schlipf said. “It probably wasn’t here initially, but they had to have something for students to be able to learn how to handle and do physical exams.”

According to Schlipf, nearly every veterinary school has a teaching herd. It’s an important way to educate the students and provide them with the opportunity to grow comfortable handling and treating these species.

See Fistulated cow, Page 5

NEWS

Fistulated cow Continued from page 4

“Everything is taught here,” Schlipf said. “We don’t just teach small animal or large animal, we don’t just do horses. The students are exposed to everything from cattle, sheep, goats, everything, so we try to keep some of whatever around for them.”

Another member of the teaching herd is Taffy, a Belgian draft horse, and like C-Cow, she serves more than one purpose. Since around 2009, Taffy has acted as the hospital’s equine blood donor, helping patients with anemia or serious injuries on their way to recovery.

Dr. Erica McKenzie, a professor in large animal internal medicine, has worked in the veterinary hospital for 12 years, and has known Taffy as long as she’s been a member of the teaching herd.

According to McKenzie, the hospital had recently lost their prior donor, Andy, to an unexpected illness when Taffy was donated as a two-year-old. Her owners were looking to rehome her, and when it was discovered that she possessed a compatible blood type for donation, she became a member of the teaching herd.

“Taffy is an ideal blood donor for several reasons,” McKenzie said via email. “She is very large (about 1400 pounds) which means she can easily give eight to 10 liters of blood if needed in a single donation with no ill effects to her.

She is very gentle and easy to handle, which is important if we have to go catch and move her in the middle of the night for a case.”

When she’s not donating blood, Taffy roams in the pasture with the other teaching herd horses, according to McKenzie. Her gentle disposition makes her a well-suited member of the teaching herd team and allows students to practice basic examinations and procedures essential to their education. She even knows how to run on the hospital’s high-speed treadmill, though she doesn’t quite reach high speeds, McKenzie added.

According to Smith-Gloria, Taffy is not the only blood donor in the teaching herd.

Some of the herd’s larger llamas also act as donors for Camelid patients in the hospital.

The Camelid family, which includes llamas and alpacas, is one of the primary areas of research within the college.

“OSU has been considered nationally and internationally the expert in Camelid medicine for a long time,” Smith-Gloria said. “OSU developed the first blood reference ranges, established dosages for many drugs and other critcal medial research. They’ve done all kinds of research. Really, Camelid medicine started here at OSU.” An important part of the Camelid program

at OSU is a summer Camelid medicine class, according to Smith-Gloria. Students come from all around the nation to learn about basic medical care and handling of both llamas and alpacas using animals from the teaching herd.

Another interesting potential in Camelid research has to do with their blood and metabolic functions, Smith-Gloria added. Researchers have found that Camelids have metabolic systems similar to humans with Type 2 diabetes.

Due to this similarity, not only can the teaching herd animals be used to help advance the quality of veterinary care for Camelids, they can also lead to insights regarding human disease.

The teaching herd, from C-Cow to the Camelids, allows students to gain confidence in their handling skills and practice for their future careers, according to Smith-Gloria. These animals all live under the watchful eye of the veterinary staff in a quality facility devoted to their well-being. Apart from their jobs as blood donors, digestive fluid contributors or simply patient teachers, each member of the herd leads a normal life.

According to McKenzie, most of the animals from the teaching herd have been donated to the college due to lameness that would have resulted in euthanization had they not been brought to the program.

“Some of them have been here nearly their whole lives and have become favorites with many of the staff,” McKenzie said via email. “All procedures horses are used for are logged, reviewed and approved by the University’s Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee.

As a veterinary school, animal care and welfare is always our primary concern.”

Cows have four stomachs: the rumen, the recticulum, the omasum and the abomasum.

The cannula provides access to the rumen, in which the digestive process begins.

A photo illustration depicts the Memorial Union under construction in place of the current MU. The Memorial Union construction began in June 1927 and first opened 18 months later for the 1928 Homecoming.

As Oregon State University steps into the 2017 fall term tempo, it surpasses a historical milestone: 150 years of service and education provided to the people of Oregon.

OSU is underway with year-long celebrations that highlight and observe 150 years of the university’s history. Events planned and held by OSU150, the official thinktank behind OSU’s anniversary celebration, will be held from now to the end of Oct. 2018.

Oregon State University began as Corvallis College, meeting in a non-denominational church downtown. Later on, a two-story building on 5th Street was constructed between Madison and Monroe streets, and housed the first classes of Oregon Agricultural College. The first graduating class in 1870 contained only three persons, who had three degree options to choose from. Only four faculty actively taught, including President Finley.

“Our first class had three students, one of them including a woman. At that point in time, education was mostly for men. To know that we had a seat at the table from the very beginning I think is really exciting” said Shelly Signs, executive director of OSU150.

By OSU’s 100th anniversary, freshman fall enrollment boasted 14,118 students, and had been home to 17 presidents, a Pulitzer prize alumni winner, one Governor for the State of Oregon and one alumnus with two Nobel

prizes to his name, according to the chronological timeline of OSU’s history.

Now, 150 years since the start, OSU’s programs span farther than Corvallis, reaching Portland, Newport, Bend and beyond. The university also houses 11 colleges that offer over 200 undergraduate and 100 graduate programs, according to the OSU webpage.

Various centers and programs are also offered on campus to supplement student education and life, such as cultural resource centers and the Educational Opportunities Program. According to Janet Nishihara, the EOP director, EOP was created in 1969 in response a student walkout of black students.

“The university admits a student, then to me, the university has a commitment to support that student as much as possible and help them achieve their goals as they come,” Nishihara said. “We have an obligation as a land-grant institution to provide accessible, useful information.”

After 150 years, OSU is, and continues to be, a nationally-accredited research university that pushes boundaries on what is known, according to the OSU webpage. During the current academic school year, OSU will be celebrating its 150 years of education and service it has provided.

From August 2017 to October 2018, OSU will be celebrating it’s 150th anniversary, the ses-

quicentennial, according to Signs. Activities, events and programs have been created to highlight OSU history, highlighting work in agriculture, forestry, and engineering, as well as showing the social and political progression that OSU has experienced over the years.

The OSU150 celebration began kick-off with the Space Grant festival that occurred during the solar eclipse, and featured many activities that were centered around OSU space innovation.

“We had close to 1,900 people staying in the residence halls. People from six countries and 24 states,” Signs said. “It was a neat opportunity to bring people to campus.”

Additional celebration events include three more festivals later in the year based on OSU’s sea, land and sun research grants, according to Signs. Upcoming in February is the Sea Grant festival. Other events are scheduled throughout the year that highlight aspects of OSU’s history.

“I’d like people to know there’s an anniversary happening, and hopefully find something of interest to them that they engage with,” Signs said.

During Homecoming weekend on October 13-14, an academic showcase will be held in

Further into the academic year, on January 27, 2018, a Winter Formal Ball will be held to celebrate the sesquicentennial. According to Signs, a focus group with student leaders was held last fall, and the first thing on their list was a formal dance.

“We really wanted to see the student component of the anniversary,” Signs said.

In addition to directing events, Signs has worked closely alongside Larry Landis, the University’s Special Archives and Research Collection director. Landis and his team have used the archive’s extensive collection to create and show 150 years of OSU stories.

According to Landis, in anticipation for the OSU150, SCARC has been digitizing many OSUrelated publications such as the yearbook

“We have about 1,300 distinct collections about 25,000 rare books,” Landis said. “We have a large body of materials that we make available to researchers, including students who use them fo class projects and research papers.”

While much of the content within the Oregon Multicultural Archives and Oregon State University Queer Archives is accessible by visiting the archive in-person, a variety of materials have been digitized and made available electronically, according to Natalia Fernández, special curator of OMA & OSQA “As a department, we prioritized the types o materials to digitize and make accessible online such as yearbooks, the Oregon Stater, athletic film and student publications, things we know will be

When not contributing to OSU150, Fernández and Landis work within SCARC to provide archival research skills instruction sessions for students and create exhibits that showcase different aspects of the collection.

“We love repurposing, reusing, resharing,” Fernández said. “When we uncover a new piece of information, we want to make sure other people know about it. We value preservation and access.”

In regards to the sesquicentennial celebration, SCARC faculty and staff have created an extensive oral history collection accessible online, according to Landis. Parts of this oral history collection will be on display in Portland from February 9 to September 9, 2018, hosted by the Oregon Historical Society.

“Even though OSU is celebrating it’s 150 anniversary, this exhibit will be looking at the past, talking about the present and looking toward the future,” Landis said. “It’s past present and future. But you can see threads running through all of those.”

According to Nishihara, during the last 50 years, the EOP has worked with OSU to develop and implement the baccalaureate core curriculum, establish the Ethnic Studies Program and create seven different cultural centers “The more we know about our history, the more we know about who we are today, and who we could be in the future,” Nishihara said. “The history reminds us about the extreme courage and persistence that people have shown, and the willingness to live out their convictions with the help of other people who supported them along the way. I don’t want to lose that. I don’t want us to forget all that.”

Signs says, beyond the ability to interact with OSU history at the OHS exhibit, students can also become actively engaged on campus through a cell-phone app that was created to celebrate the anniversary. The app contains information about buildings on campus.

The app includes current and historical photos of buildings on campus as well as a short biography, according to Signs. Through these interactions, OSU students can learn how 150 years of stories resulted in the institution they know today.

Running back Artavis Pierce rushes against Washington. He was the only Beaver to find the endzone against USC and leads the team in all-purpose yards.

Beaver football falls to USC

Team goes to 1-5 on season, looks ahead to taking on Colorado

By Gunnar Boag, Sports Contributor

It was all too familiar for the Beaver football team this weekend.

Starting the game off, it was just like Washington the week before, USC methodically moved the ball down the field. It took the Trojan offense eight plays to go 76 yards, capping the opening drive off with a 37-yard touchdown pass.

Down 7-0, the Oregon State offense needed to find some success. Instead, quarterback Darell Garretson threw an interception on his first pass attempt of the game. The USC offense punched the ball into the end zone three plays later, and the Trojans never looked back.

Despite three early turnovers by USC, the Beavers could not capitalize.

Oregon State (1-5) couldn’t make USC (5-1) pay for their mistakes. The Trojans fumbled twice in their own red zone, but the Beavers came away empty handed after two missed field goals. The Beavers were forced to punt after a USC interception, and a promising drive was cut short when the offense was stopped on fourth down.

With starting running back Ryan Nall injured, the Beavers spread out the carries. Artavis Pierce, Thomas Tyner, and Trevorris Johnson all saw significant reps. The Beavers finished with 122 rushing yards on 36 carries.

The Beavers found success running the ball to the outside, using fly sweeps and designed runs to stretch the USC defense. The passing game was most efficient when Garretson got the ball out quickly, avoiding sacks or dangerous throws.

The defense turned in another inspired effort, forcing a fumble and interception before half. The lack of offense translated to extended playing time for the defense, resulting in a 21-3 halftime score.

The Beavers came out in the second half looking to find the end zone. A promising 12 play, 69-yard drive was cut short by a Garretson fumble on the USC six-yard line. It wasn’t until the start of the fourth quarter when the Beavers got in the end zone—a six yard run by Pierce.

The Beavers last drive ended in a turnover on downs, and USC used the rest of the clock to finish up a 38-10 victory. USC quarterback Sam Darnold was inconsistent, but finished with 316 passing yards. USC finished with 512 yards on offense while the Beavers managed 319.

Darell Garretson started slow, but finished the game with 197 passing yards on 16 completions. He turned the ball over twice, an interception and goal-line fumble.

Linebacker Manase Hungalu led the defense with eight tackles and recorded his fourth career interception. Safety Jalen Moore added eight tackles, two of them for losses.

Wide receiver Seth Collins led the team in receiving, targeted five times for 91 yards. This included an impressive one hand grab in tough coverage, a 33 yard gain.

The special teams play did not help the Beavers. Two missed field goals, a roughing the kicker penalty, and a kickoff fumble were significant setbacks.

Gary Andersen is now 7-23 at Oregon State, and is still looking for a road win. The Beavers have lost 16 consecutive away games. The last one came in 2014 at Colorado—under ex-head coach Mike Riley’s tenure.

With the loss, Oregon State finishes its string of AP ranked foes. They finished 0-3 in those games, getting outscored 132-40. The Beavers now look ahead to the homecoming game against Colorado (3-3), set to kickoff at 1 p.m. PT. WEEK OF MONDAY, OCT. 9, 2017 • DAILYBAROMETER.COM • 11

Corvallis welcomes new restaurant Benny’s Donuts owner opens new restaurant Sidecar nextdoor

Sidecar serves locally sourced, sustainable meals and craft cocktails. Sidecar is located next door to Benny’s Donuts with a barn door separating the businesses.

OSU graduate and entrepreneur Benny Augeri, owner of Benny’s Donuts, surprised the Corvallis community this August with a neighborhood eatery by the name of Sidecar.

“Sidecar really brings something new to Corvallis,” Augeri said. “It’s not a brew pub. It’s not a pizzeria. It’s something different that focuses on something more intimate, more familiar.”

The new restaurant serves a variety of locally sourced meals, including housemade tartines, salads, meat dishes and craft cocktails. Each dish is handcrafted with local, fresh and sustainable ingredients. The contemporary northwest vision of the eatery encompasses the ethical vision both its owner and chef have for Sidecar.

“Every Wednesday and Saturday we go to the market,” Hoyt Willard, Executive Chef, said. “We always always believe in fresh, local, simple and sustainable.”

Augeri has made menu decisions based on his experience with Benny’s Donuts.

“We launched gluten-free vegan donuts and we saw that there was this huge community and support for that donut and then we transitioned,” Augeri said. “Essentially there’s an option for everybody. There’s gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian options.”

Much of the woodwork in the restaurant comes from Oregon-reclaimed white oak or redwood. The fresh and local dishes, the natural essence of design and natural light all contribute to making Sidecar an organic space.

That space brings together underlying values and traditions to create culture and brand.

Located at 110 NW 3rd St. just off of Monroe Avenue, Sidecar shares its roof and kitchen with Benny’s Donuts with a large sliding barn door separating the two spaces.

“I originally designed the donut shop in 1,500 square feet, leaving 2,500 left as kind of a makerspace for me to tinker around in and 12 • DAILYBAROMETER.COM • WEEK OF MONDAY, OCT. 9, 2017

figure out what I wanted to do in here because I knew that this destination was prime,” Augeri said. “We created a neighborhood eatery and then really focused on a modern local kitchen but has some international appeal to it so it could showcase not only local ingredients but also different styles of food in a really contemporary way.”

According to Augeri, the Oregon State University Advantage Accelerator was the catalyst to his career when the program helped him launch Benny’s Donuts. This program assists innovators and entrepreneurs in the Mid-Willamette Valley and extended OSU community with starting up emerging enterprises, according to the Oregon State University Advantage Accelerator website.

They gave him the accessibility, knowledge and network to begin. The mentorship and resources that he needed to become a successful entrepreneur stemmed from the program, according to Augeri.

“We’re really looking for entrepreneurs that really want to do this, not those that are looking for it as a hobby,” Mark Lieberman, OSU Advantage Accelerator Chief Startup Officer, said. “We want to see that fire in the belly and that’s what we saw in Benny.”

The fire in his belly and keen eye for opportunity has given Augeri a reputation in the entrepreneurial community. People all over Corvallis have noticed his uniqueness.

Sidecar is only a few months old, yet Augeri already has ideas and plans to grow his restaurant. Opening soon on Sundays, Sidecar will be offering happy hours. He also wants to open for breakfast.

“In every community there are a certain number of entrepreneurs who drive a lot of economic activity,” Karl Mundorff, OSU Advantage Accelerator Director, said. “We think Benny is one of those guys for Corvallis. “

Oregon State reintroduces Homecoming Court The Homecoming Court is made up of ten students to celebrate OSU150

By Anna Weeks, Life Editor The sesquicentennial inspired the revival of Homecoming Court, an old tradition at Oregon State. This year, a group of 10 students were selected to represent Oregon State University as the 2017 Homecoming Court. Sponsored by the Oregon State University Alumni Association, students were chosen based on leadership qualities, integrity, spirit and contributions and involvement at Oregon State University.

This year’s court consists of Andrew Brewington, Greg Heinonen, Brandon Kerr, Dillon Koch, Kelsey McCall, Kristy Milien, Radhika Shah, Sayeeda Sieah, Zack Simmons and Ian Snyder. Court members will make appearances at several events throughout the year including the Homecoming Carnival, football game, President’s Circle events, Spring Awards Celebration and the State of the University, according to the Oregon State University Alumni Association website.

Why did you decide to be on the Homecoming Court?

Sayeeda Sieah: I wanted to take this opportunity to be as involved as I could for my last year and I thought HC Court would give me a great last experience.

Kelsey McCall: OSU has given me more than I could have ever dreamed (beyond just an education) and knowing you’re a part of some-

thing that is aiming to bring that same experience to students year after year is something I strongly believe in!

Ian Snyder: I want to stay engaged with Oregon State as an alumni and I thought being on the court would be a great way to start forming alumni relationships and getting involved.

Andrew Brewington: I decided to run for HC court because of my love of Greek and Residence Life and how they give me a unique experience.

Representing the students at the community and Alumni Association level, I love to talk about all the great things being accomplished daily by Oregon State Beavers!

What are you looking forward to most about Homecoming Week?

Greg Heinonen: This is my first time really being involved in the Homecoming Week festivities as a student, so I’m looking forward to learning more about all the traditions we have here at OSU. I think homecoming week is a really unique, unifying event, so I’m excited to see alumni, families and community members all on campus, hopefully celebrating a win with the students!

Kristy Milien: It is so exciting that the Homecoming spirit is being brought back for the 150 anniversary of OSU. I can’t wait for all the

activities and for all Beaver fans to come into town for the Homecoming game!

Dillon Koch: Getting to be a part of OSU traditions and helping to celebrate OSU 150!

Radhika Shah: All the events and the opportunity to meet alumni.

Ian Snyder: I’m most excited for homecoming carnival and getting to see campus come together to have fun.

Brandon Kerr: The carnival since it looks like a ton of fun and the Homecoming game because it’s always good to see old friends.

What is your favorite OSU memory?

Dillon Koch: Getting up at 4:00 a.m. freshman year with all of my friends in my residence hall to wait for football tickets. They brought us hot chocolate and doughnuts!

Radhika Shah: White water rafting the first week of freshmen year with the Honors College.

Zack Simmons: As DAM JAM 2017 coordinator, watching that event come to life last June was definitely a memory I’ll never forget.

Sayeeda Sieah: My favorite OSU memory was working as a START Leader.

Kelsey McCall: I was fully convinced I wanted to go out of state for college and my parents said that was fine so long as I looked at OSU and U of O. My favorite memory was walking

inside the MU and out the fronts steps knowing instantly that this would be where I spend the next few years. There was something about OSU that just clicked and I knew instantly.

I’ll never forget that.

Brandon Kerr: My freshman year about 50 people and I camped out for footbal tickets. The weather was awful, but it was such a fun time.

On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate your school spirit and why?

Andrew Brewington: 10, I love the Beaver Athletics and attending Oregon State! This is one of the best schools out there and there are so many opportunities for student involvement!

Zack Simmons: 10! I’ve been a Beaver believer since the age of 6. Regardless of how we do in sports I’ll always love being a Beav.

Greg Heinonen: I have really enjoyed my time as a student at OSU and always look for opportunities to share the awesome experiences I have had with others. 10/10 no matter how badly we lose.

Kristy Milien: 10! Ever since I set foot on this campus as a senior in high school touring colleges, I knew I had to come to this beautiful and lively campus. I bled orange and black at first sight!

For students with no way of getting home safely on their own, the Associated Students of Oregon State University provide the option of requesting a SafeRide van to pick them up and take them to a requested destination, even if they engage in behaviors such as drinking.

“I know sometimes it may feel uncomfortable to call a friend or someone who doesn’t engage in the same social behaviors that you want to engage in, and so this can be an option to be able to get home and feel safe,” Brittany Nefcy, the program’s coordinator, said.

The student-run program, which is one of the oldest in the nation, began shuttling students in 1989, according to Nefcy. SafeRide runs every night from 7 p.m. to 2 a.m. and can pick up students anywhere, but cannot drop them off at commercial locations. The service is funded by student fees and free of judgement, Nefcy added.

According to Sayeeda Sieah, the program’s assistant manager for outreach, last year, approximately one-fourth of OSU students utilized the service. In exact terms, a total of 7,312 individuals requested over 65,000 rides.

However, only approximately 35,000 rides were completed, according to Nefcy. Some of the reasons for this disparity include the administrator asking to cancel the ride if there is an error and asking the rider to make their request again, students who ask to be dropped off at commercial locations and riders who cancel the ride themselves.

Data collected by the SafeRide program shows that of the nearly 31,000 incomplete rides last year, 23,785 were cancelled by riders.

Of the 7,456 rides cancelled by SafeRide, 3,611 were due to riders not showing up.

According to Jeff Baxter, the SafeRide graduate teaching assistant, the service is over capacity, which is one potential reason for the number of uncompleted rides.

“On any given night, we have between four and six vans out trying to get as many rides as possible,” Baxter said in an email. “Some folks don’t want to wait for 30 minutes for a van to show up and pick them up, others find another way to get to their destination and some simply just don’t show up.”

Baxter’s role as SafeRide’s GTA involves assessing the service and surveying riders to

find out what can be improved. To address the concern of incomplete rides, SafeRide is working with the city to advertise Night Owl bus routes, a joint project of the Corvallis Transit System and ASOSU, according to Baxter. Baxter also sees potential partnerships with ride booking services including Uber and Lyft, an effort pursued by the ASOSU executive branch over the summer, as an opportunity to increase transportation options for students.

“There will be those students who are able to afford Uber or Lyft and those who are not able to,” Baxter said in an email.

“When students use Uber or Lyft instead of using our service, they will free up space in our service for students who are unable to afford other options.”

Sieah, who oversees SafeRide’s website, social media, and advertising, sees ride booking services as allies, rather than competitors, in SafeRide’s mission to help students travel safely.

“Being a student myself, I now have more options for a ride home and to me, that is awesome,” Sieah said via email.

According to Nefcy, another way SafeRide intends to help students get around safely is through updates to their app. In about two weeks, the program plans to add a number of new features, including up-to-the-minute reports of wait times and starred locations for consistent riders to easily request a ride to or from any location they frequent.

The app will also increase the efficiency of ride allocation between vans by allowing drivers to pass rides between vans and automatically organize requests into routes, Nefcy added. Currently, drivers accept rides requested in their area and have to cancel erroneous requests before asking a student to try again. The administrators will soon be able to swap rides between rides on their end.

“It is really still from when it started to now, a student-run service,” Nefcy said. “I will suggest things to the students, but ultimately, them making those choices and decisions, and when we make those choices or have those conversations it’s always about, ‘How will this impact our riders? Is that for the better for them or not?”

Scott Vignos (left), director of strategic initiatives, Charlene Alexander (middle), vice president and chief diversity officer and Steve Clark (right), vice president of university relations and marketing, discuss the building name evaluation process. Clark and Alexander signed an all-students email outlining the next steps in the process Oct. 6.

OSU Architectural Naming Committee to host building name discussions Meetings will evaluate historical reports By the Baro Staff Oregon State University is undergoing the process to evaluate the names and history of namesakes of buildings on campus. The four buildings currently under evaluation are Arnold Dining Center, Avery Lodge, Benton Hall and Annex and Gill Coliseum. Part of this process includes hosting community discussions, with the first being held Oct. 11.

During this process, the Office of Institutional Diversity, the OSU Architectural Naming Committee and the Building and Place Names Evaluation workgroup is undertaking a historical review of both these buildings and their namesakes.

According to the Building and Place Names webpage, the process to evaluate the renaming requests, which was created by the OSU ANC, is based on one question: “Should a building be renamed because the ‘context’ of an individual’s life and legacy is inconsistent with OSU’s contemporary mission and values?”, according to the Building and Place Names webpage.

The OSU ANC hosted two community engagement events to discuss questions surrounding the context.

An all-students email signed by Steve Clark, vice president of university relations and marketing, and Charlene Alexander, vice president and chief diversity officer was sent Oct. 6 and outlined future steps in the process.

According to the email, the next part of the process includes four evaluation meetings. These meetings will share historical reports on the buildings and their namesakes which were completed by a team of scholars.

“Like the community engagement ses-

sions, attendees will be asked to offer input into the evaluation process for each building,” the email stated. “Community members may also offer input on the Building and Place Names website.”

The next four community engagement events will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the Memorial Union Ballroom on their respective dates.
