Stowell Bud Clark, Portland's spirited mayor-elect, keeps coming back to Portland State. Whether it's to take a class, find talent, or drop off a bag of money, the former Vanporter has been a frequent visitor to campus. And the school - as extension center,. college and university - has been an undeniable part of the urban landscape that has shaped the new mayor. Clark enrolled at Vanport as an "idealistic" youth just out of lincoln High School, and spent a year studying business technology and playing a lot of pinochle. In the next decade, after his first wife died in a traffic accident, he sought intellectual solace in anthropology and geology classes at Portland State College ("they were still playing pinochle"). Then in 1984, PSU speech professor and Clark campaign manager Ben Padrow helped engineer Clark's surprise defeat of incumbent Mayor 1 Frank Ivancie in the May primary. ci Immediately, the mayor began .. brushing up on public administration ! in a private seminar with PSU's Dan ~ OToole and PSU adjunct professor Jim Marshall.

  • Black and Blue: Police-Community Relations in Portland's Albina
    LEANNE C. SERBULO & KAREN J. GIBSON Black and Blue Police-Community Relations in Portland’s Albina District, 1964–1985 It appears that there is sufficient evidence to believe that the Portland Police Department indulges in stop and frisk practices in Albina. They seem to feel that they have the right to stop and frisk someone because his skin is black and he is in the black part of town. — Attorney commenting in City Club of Portland’s Report on Law Enforcement, 1981 DURING THE 1960s, institutionalized discrimination, unemployment, and police brutality fueled inter-racial tensions in cities across America, including Portland, Oregon. Riots became more frequent, often resulting in death and destruction. Pres. Lyndon Johnson’s National Advisory Com- mission on Civil Disorders issued in early 198 what became known as the “Kerner Report,” which declared that the nation was “moving toward two societies, one black, one white — separate and unequal.”2 Later that year, the City Club of Portland published a document titled Report on Problems of Racial Justice in Portland, its own version of the national study. The report documented evidence of racial discrimination in numerous institutions, including the police bureau. The section “Police Policies, Attitudes, and Practices” began with the following statement: The Mayor and the Chief of Police have indicated that in their opinions the Kerner Report is not applicable to Portland. Satisfactory police-citizen relations are not likely to be achieved as a reality in Portland in the absence of a fundamental change in the philosophy of the officials who formulate policy for the police bureau.

Twenty-four years old, the mother of two small daughters, and in the process of getting a divorce. Not surprisingly, she was broke. "I had always wanted to go to college," Robin remembers. "I thought it was unlikely I could ever go - I had no resources available to me. But I happened to have a good friend who kept telling me to go into the financial aid office and see what they could do." Reluctant at first, Robin finally visited the office in 1980 and , to her pleasant surprise, found that through a combination of assistance programs - grants, loans and work study - she would be able to enroll at Portland State as an undergraduate.
