  • Report on the History of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn
    Report on the History of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn By David Alan Johnson Professor, Portland State University former Managing Editor (1997-2014), Pacific Historical Review Quintard Taylor Emeritus Professor and Scott and Dorothy Bullitt Professor of American History. University of Washington Marsha Weisiger Julie and Rocky Dixon Chair of U.S. Western History, University of Oregon In the 2015-16 academic year, students and faculty called for renaming Deady Hall and Dunn Hall, due to the association of Matthew P. Deady and Frederick S. Dunn with the infamous history of race relations in Oregon in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. President Michael Schill initially appointed a committee of administrators, faculty, and students to develop criteria for evaluating whether either of the names should be stripped from campus buildings. Once the criteria were established, President Schill assembled a panel of three historians to research the history of Deady and Dunn to guide his decision-making. The committee consists of David Alan Johnson, the foremost authority on the history of the Oregon Constitutional Convention and author of Founding the Far West: California, Oregon, Nevada, 1840-1890 (1992); Quintard Taylor, the leading historian of African Americans in the U.S. West and author of several books, including In Search of the Racial Frontier: African Americans in the American West, 1528-1990 (1998); and Marsha Weisiger, author of several books, including Dreaming of Sheep in Navajo Country (2009). Other historians have written about Matthew Deady and Frederick Dunn; although we were familiar with them, we began our work looking at the primary sources—that is, the historical record produced by Deady, Dunn, and their contemporaries.

  • Chapter-1-Pre-1967-1980-22Wfgoq
    Chapter 1: Pre 1967 - 1980 "In reality, there are two things that most of our competitors have that we lack. First, funding; second, a history. While the UW boathouse has photos of their crews from the 1930's, our own history has just begun." - Kelli Congelli, 1996 Oregon Rowing Scrapbook1 1967-1980 Before 1967 the University of Oregon made one modest attempt to field a crew team. The 1961 Oregana yearbook notes The Rowing Club at Fern Ridge as, "one Oregon’s First Crew at Fern Ridge, of the newest interest groups on 1961 Oregana campus," with plans to, "row against similar organizations from other West Coast Schools."2 The original group boasted 20 members, three rowing shells, and a small tract of land to build a facility at Fern Ridge. This team had started independently in the winter of 1959 and was functioning on its own by 1960, workout out with Oregon State on Saturdays, and raising money to buy a crew shell.3 Unfortunately, it shut down in 1963.4 Although there was “Rowing Club” Feature, 1962 Oregana some effort to host the 1965 WIRA (Western Intercollegiate Rowing Association) Rowing Championships in Eugene,5 the project of building a competitive program at the UO would not successfully begin again until 1967. It is not a coincidence that Oregon State officially reclassified its club rowing program as a varsity sport in the spring of 1967, just before the Ducks began training in the fall of the same year,6 but the majority of the credit for the program's birth goes to the early coaches Don McCarty and Ken Abbey.

  • Small Donor Elections Letter to the Editor Guide
    Small Donor Elections Letter to the Editor Guide Tips before you get started: ● Be respectful ● Be personal - talk about why money in politics matters to you personally. Do you feel like corporations and developers have too much influence in your community? Do you feel like your representatives listen to their donors more than their constituents like you? Do you feel like good candidates don’t have the resources to run for office? ● Be direct - keep your letter brief and to the point, and where appropriate, mention your legislator by name ● Be timely - when possible, submit a letter that directly responds to or builds on another recent article or current event. ● Know where you are submitting - different news outlets have different word count guidelines. How to write a Letter to the Editor (LTE): 1. Always start off by telling a short “story of self” (one to two sentences) that connects you to a specific issue or value, so that folks know who you are and why you’re writing. a. Example: I grew up in Oregon and I’ve noticed that over the past decade, our elected officials have become out of touch and listen more to their wealthy donors than they do to their constituents like me. 2. Explain the problem in more detail, or talk about the consequences of the problem. a. Example: While wealthy donors, like landlords and real estate developers, have been using their campaign contributions and influence to block rent stabilization policies in Salem, people in my community are being evicted from their homes. 3. Explain your solution and/or opinion about the solution.
