Wetzel was given a shirt emblazoned with “SOLO SENIOR” to wear before the Oct. 31 game. Then, when her teammates removed their warm-up jerseys, she saw that they were all wearing shirts bearing a photo of her in action. A touched and inspired Wetzel went on to tie her career best for points in a contest, with a goal and two assists as the Beavers defeated Arizona, 3-0. For more on the team’s strong season performance, see page 50.

  • Welcome to OSU! Self-Guided Tour of Campus
    Welcome to OSU! Self-Guided Tour of Campus Oregon State University’s main campus is over 400 acres and has 121 buildings-needless to say you will only have a chance to see a small part of it! Tuition was $10 a term in 1870 when the first degrees were awarded to a class of three (one woman and two men). There are currently over 27,000 students from all 50 states and 93 foreign countries. The Tour: (Sites can be visited in any order) Memorial Union & Quad In the Quad: The MU opened in 1928 and remains a popular place with students today. The quad (lawn) out front often has information booths, live music concerts, and students hanging out doing homework or basking in the Oregon sun. In the lounge: This beautiful area, also known as the students’ living room, features couches and chairs for between-class studying or naps. At noon on Fridays, the lounge hosts concerts for students and the public by OSU music groups including parts of the orchestra and a capella groups. All of the flags throughout the hall represent a student or faculty member from that particular country. On main level: If you are looking for a bite to eat, there are a couple of great places to get a bite on the West end of the MU. OSU students can either use cash or a debit card to purchase meals. On campus, there are 17 different restaurants, cafés, and stores to choose from. In the basement: During any free time that students have here at OSU, they can be found down in the basement playing pool on one of the many pool tables, bowling at OSU’s recreational bowling alley, and playing video games with friends.

  • Downloaded on December 31, 1994
    1995 ff OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY BEAVER MASCOT The "Beaver" mascot, both the name and image, has had a long and exciting tradition at Oregon State University. The term "Beavers" was first used as an Oregon Agricultural College (OAC) athletic team name in 1910. Prior to 1910, the institution's mascot had been a coyote named "Jimmie". This mascot dates back to at least 1893, about the time football was introduced as a collegiate sport. During this time period, the mascot and team names were separate. The athletic teams had either been referred to as the "Orangemen" or as the "Aggies". There are refer- ences in the OSU Archives to other mascots, including "J.R.N. Bell" an avid athletic booster, and a bulldog that appeared in photos from the 1894 to 1910 period. The yearbook, which began in 1907 as "The Orange" changed its title to "The Beaver" in 1916. The beaver was probably selected by OAC because of the engineering skills of the beaver (commonly referred to as "nature's engineer"), and because Oregon's professional engineering academic programs were located at OAC-- Oregon's land grant institution. Although the Beaver was not officially adopted as the State Animal of Oregon until 1969, Oregon had been known as the "Beaver State" since at least 1859 due to the portrayal of the beaver on the obverse side of the State of Oregon flag. The beaver mascot images on the front cover portray the beaver in various forms ranging from the 1920s up to the present. Beginning in the 11:00 position, the images illustrate the changing and evolving image of OSU's use of the beaver as both a name and as a mascot.
