FACULTY WANT TO AMEND THE BIAS EDUCATION AND RESPONSE TEAM

➡ WILL CAMPBELL @WTCAMPBELL

In May 1999, a University of Oregon student said to his class that Hispanic people have a poor work ethic. The campus exploded in a controversy that led to a protest, a sit-in and the arrest of 31 students. This upheaval gave birth to what is today the Bias Education and Response Team. Now, if you see or hear something offensive on campus, you can report it to BERT; their mission is to start a conversation before a situation like what oc- cured in May 1999 happens again. BERT is a team of staff that receives and reviews reports of bias or racism on campus by “offering support, referral and opportunities for dialogue,” according to its mission statement. Administrators designed BERT as a team of educators, but faculty leaders are worried BERT is interfering with free speech. After 17 years of operation, faculty members are trying to change the way BERT operates. The History of BERT BERT was created in May 1999, when a com- ment made by a student sparked a protest that resulted in the arrest of 31 students, according to an Emerald article from 1999. The ignition point was a presentation on Hispanic com- munities in which a UO student said Hispanic individuals have poor work ethic and blamed their culture. In the heated discussion that followed, students took to email to criticize or defend the statement. Eventually, a student threatened three women in the class. He said to one Asian student over email that if she didn’t shut up, “you will see what racism truly is.” Former president Dave Frohnmayer didn’t expel the student. A rally at the Erb Memo- rial Union followed, and 75 protesters went to Johnson Hall to stage a sit-in. When they stayed after-hours on the floor of Johnson Hall, 31 were arrested for trespassing. Students demanded action after the arrests. One demand included the formation of a “dis- crimination response team” that would “notify authorities, provide victim support and ensure due process for the accused discriminator.” This discrimination response team evolved into the Bias Response Team, which was recently renamed the Bias Education and Response Team.
