  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The Scab Sheet, May 5, 1969 Year: 1969 The issue is larger and is prepared as an actual newspaper, unlike the former format resembling a home-made newsletter. Page 1 The title page depicts Oregon Governor Tom McCall dressed as a Knight, with the state seal on his shield. Two bodies are impaled on his lance. They are labeled as “BSU” and “Symposium.” President Jensen, dressed in a Jesters suit, and Dee Andros, dressed as a policeman, are sitting on a horse behind McCall. This issue is the first to utilize a format standardized in later issues, with a clenched fist (half white, half black) next to “the SCAB SHEET.” The issue price is also raised to ten cents. Page 2 “Black bard booted” Donald Williams, a black poet from San Francisco, is reported to have been evicted from campus by the campus police. His non-profit activities are described, however the details of his eviction are not reported. A collection of his poems are printed on Page 8. “Teach In” An open rapping-session is advertised for May 6th at 2:30 pm, during which anyone is encouraged to rap about current events. “MAN in AWS” Luther Hall is criticized for applying for chairman of the AWS Judicial board, a board designed to self-govern women on campus. Attention was brought to the group over outrage concerning rules dictating mandatory arrival and departure times on campus. “AMERICAN RENAISSANCE SYMPOSIUM” Oregon government officials are criticized for over-reacting to rumors of the American Renaissance Symposium, a group which existed in rumor only, sparking fears of future riots on campuses in Oregon. “Fast for…” An organized fast is announced for May 5th in an attempt to raise awareness for a movement requesting diplomatic recognition of Biafra, a state midway through an unsuccessful civil war with Nigeria. “SPORT” Black student athletes in the Pacific-8 conference, spearheaded by the University of Washington, are reported to be planning to meet for a peaceful demonstration against Oregon State during the conference championships held in Corvallis later in the month.

Page 4 – Editorials Section “HUMAN RIGHTS, 1880” House Bill 1880 is criticized for its vagueness, which could possibly lead to “radicals” infringing upon human rights. The bill involves cases of “imminent danger” at state institutions, presumably geared towards riots, and allows the governor to declare a state of emergency after consultation with the institution’s president. “Big Brother” Governor McCall is accused of creating an atmosphere not unlike 1984. An investigative force is claimed to have been uncovered. The force allegedly provided information to Governor McCall on a weekly basis after covertly gathering information on campus. “Black Ousted” The information in Page 2’s article “Black bard booted” is repeated in an editorial. [no title] Black students at Cornell are congratulated for developments on their campus, while the precedent is noted for President Jensen. [no title] A drawing of a fist is under the word “NOW.” The word and fist both are half white and half black. Page 5 “BLACK CIVIL WAR” An open letter signed “BLACK POWER, Seattle Alliance of BSU’s” is directed toward OSU black track athletes Willie Turner and Ernie Smith. They, along with any other black athletes which have no left OSU, are labeled as turncoats and are accused of being fake black students and traitors to black people in general. They are given notice that they are not welcome in the state of Washington, either for athletic, or future professional endeavors. They are formally labeled as “white.” “TO THE SCAB SHEET:” Larry Gossett, University of Washington Black Student Union President, delivers an open letter to the Scab Sheet in which he informs Willie Turner and Ernie Smith that they are not welcome at the University of Washington for an upcoming track meet. Black students remaining at the OSU campus (over half of the Black Student Union) are labeled as either fakes or traitors to their race. Turner and Smith are accused of going over to the “enemy.” [Note: As of February 7, 2012, Gossett is currently the King County Council Chair in Washington, according to his official biography at kingcounty.gov.] [Note regarding the two articles above: According to a April 29, 1969 article in the St. Petersburg Times, a newspaper in Florida, Smith and Turner and the Athletic Department issued a statement accusing the Washington Black Student Union of infringing on their rights. Neither competed in the event in Washington because of harassment from black students at the meet.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: OSU Women's Center Group Oral History Interview Year: 2015 Amelia Allee grew up in Denver, but calls Portland, Oregon her home. Allee is 20 years old, and self-identifies as French, English, and Huron (a Native American Tribe). This is her first year at Oregon State University as a transfer student from Portland Community College. As a junior, she is majoring in public health with a focus in health management and policy. Allee is also working towards her certificate of food and culture and social justice. Previously a student advocate at PCC's women's center, Allee began working at OSU's women's center in 2014. She is currently a peer facilitator, but will soon become the leadership liaison. Shelby Baisden recognizes Gresham, Oregon as her hometown, but calls Portland and Corvallis her home. Baisden is 22, self-identifies as white, and is a senior at Oregon State University. She is studying human development and family sciences in the school of public health and human sciences. This is her first year working for the women's center, although she had previously collaborated with the center. She serves as the communications representative. Soreth Dahri's hometown is Karachi, Pakistan. She self-identifies as Muslim and Pakistani. She is 21 and in her second year at Oregon State University. She is majoring in finance in the college of business. Dahri is currently a peer facilitator at the women's center, and this is her first year working for the center. While Nicthé Verdugo lives in Corvallis, Oregon, her hometown is Chandler, Arizona. Verdugo is 22, self-identifies as Chicana, and is a senior at Oregon State University. She is majoring in ethnic studies with a minor in women, gender, and sexuality studies within the college of liberal arts. This is Verdugo's second year working at the women's center. During her first year, she served as the program coordinator, creating and organizing events. Currently she is the leadership liaison. One of her duties is to serve as a mentor for the staff of the women's center. The interview begins by introducing four staff members of Oregon State University's women's center–Amelia Allee, Shelby Baisden, Soreth Dahri, and Nicthé Verdugo. After discussing their backgrounds, majors, and positions at the women's center, they discuss the challenges of their jobs. These challenges include white privilege and misunderstandings of feminism. They recommend sexual assault awareness and expanded definitions of feminism for future event topics. The interview then chronicles their ideas and advice for the future of the women's center. For this, the interviewees recognize open mindedness, good and purposeful intentions, non-generalizations, and challenging barriers. On a more personal level, they describe several experiences in which their identities have caused them to have both negative and positive interactions. The interview ends with an acknowledgement of the family-like environment of the staff and of the center.

She is majoring in ethnic studies with a minor in women, gender, and sexuality studies within the college of liberal arts. This is Verdugo's second year working at the women's center. During her first year, she served as the program coordinator, creating and organizing events. Currently she is the leadership liaison. One of her duties is to serve as a mentor for the staff of the women's center. The interview begins by introducing four staff members of Oregon State University's women's center–Amelia Allee, Shelby Baisden, Soreth Dahri, and Nicthé Verdugo. After discussing their backgrounds, majors, and positions at the women's center, they discuss the challenges of their jobs. These challenges include white privilege and misunderstandings of feminism. They recommend sexual assault awareness and expanded definitions of feminism for future event topics. The interview then chronicles their ideas and advice for the future of the women's center. For this, the interviewees recognize open mindedness, good and purposeful intentions, non-generalizations, and challenging barriers. On a more personal level, they describe several experiences in which their identities have caused them to have both negative and positive interactions. The interview ends with an acknowledgement of the family-like environment of the staff and of the center. Close
