OLLI at SOU 4 Fall 2021 Catalog A note from SOU Director, Outreach and Engagement Programs... Welcome to Fall Term 2021! f we have learned anything in the past 18 months, one of the top lessons has Ibeen how to live with uncertainty. Nonetheless, at the time that I’m writing this we are inching ever closer to a more familiar sort of Fall Term. While OLLI at SOU has proved adept at existing in ambiguity during the pandemic, the return to normal operations will be a welcome reprieve from the unusual nature of the past academic year. OLLI at SOU has weathered the COVID-19 pandemic admirably. As in the past, we remain at the forefront as one of the most robust, healthy, affordable, and resourceful OLLI programs in the country. Throughout the pandemic we have maintained a strong membership. Our number of courses per term is more than double the national average for OLLI programs, and we are one of only a small handful of OLLIs that found ways to offer social events on Zoom during the pandemic. Remarkably, we ended the 2020-21 academic year having garnered students and instructors from ninety-one cities and towns across the United States! Rachel Jones, Director, All of this, and more, are a testament to the impressive governance and SOU Outreach & Engagement management of OLLI at SOU. The commitment of our council, committee members, and tireless staff, coupled with the strength of our governance process have enabled us to remain vibrant and healthy even during diffcult times. As we embark on a new academic year that feels full of promise, and the long-awaited unveiling of our fully renovated Campbell Center, the fall term is beckoning as a time of revival and delight. Whether joining us in-person or remotely, come join us this fall for a year of exploration, discovery, and renewal. Rachel Jones Director, SOU Outreach

Map of Chetleshin . 158 Plates . 184 153 INTRODUCTION The coastal Indian village sites of Oregon, especially those of the southwestern section of the state, have been neglected archaeolog- ically in the past, and today few remain which have withstood the forces of nature and wanton destruction by man. The Pistol River occupation site, anciently known to its inhabitants as Chetleshin or Chetlessentan, was located on a high bluff overlooking both river and ocean, about 8.5 miles south of Gold Beach, Oregon. For a time this was one of the few prehistoric sites to escape the constant spoilative activities of the pothunter, but in 1961 it finally became a victim of his aggressiveness. Prior to this, Chetleshin had been part of the W. H. Henry sheep ranch and had been held by the family for many years. Until a highway was constructed from Gold Beach to Brookings, the region was difficult of access and could be reached only by an old county trail. At various times the village area had been under cultivation and had produced bountiful crops due to its extremely rich soil, at other times it had been used for sheep pasture.

  • Drafting Disney for Victory: Animation, Propaganda, and Political Resistance, 1941-1942
    DRAFTING DISNEY FOR VICTORY: ANIMATION, PROPAGANDA, AND POLITICAL RESISTANCE, 1941-1942 by John Michael Gregory A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Charlotte 2019 Approved by: ______________________________ Dr. Mark Wilson, Thesis Director ______________________________ Dr. Peter Thorsheim ______________________________ Dr. David Johnson ©2019 John Michael Gregory ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT JOHN MICHAEL GREGORY. Drafting Disney for Victory: Animation, Propaganda, and Political Resistance, 1941-1942. (Under the direction of DR. MARK WILSON) History has forgotten animation, and film companies are often complicit in failing to acknowledge its influence on our social and cultural history. Walt Disney came of age in the film industry during the Golden Age of Hollywood, an era that coincided with a world stage set for war and conflict. The threat of Nazi Germany was felt both home and abroad, and the United States struggled with indecision on whether or not to support its European allies or remain isolationist. When the Second World War began, the American response was lukewarm with Lend-Lease being the only acceptable political means of interference in the European conflict. Walt Disney, struggling over lack of profits due to war-related distribution overseas, sought US Government contracts for morale and instructional films to keep his company afloat and his artists paid. Though Disney’s popularity and success in Hollywood in the late 1930s should have made him an easy sell to politicians, he was largely met with distrust over questions of cost and the future viability of animation in government use.

  • An Historical Overview of Vancouver Barracks, 1846-1898, with Suggestions for Further Research
    Part I, “Our Manifest Destiny Bids Fair for Fulfillment”: An Historical Overview of Vancouver Barracks, 1846-1898, with suggestions for further research Military men and women pose for a group photo at Vancouver Barracks, circa 1880s Photo courtesy of Clark County Museum written by Donna L. Sinclair Center for Columbia River History Funded by The National Park Service, Department of the Interior Final Copy, February 2004 This document is the first in a research partnership between the Center for Columbia River History (CCRH) and the National Park Service (NPS) at Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. The Park Service contracts with CCRH to encourage and support professional historical research, study, lectures and development in higher education programs related to the Fort Vancouver National Historic Site and the Vancouver National Historic Reserve (VNHR). CCRH is a consortium of the Washington State Historical Society, Portland State University, and Washington State University Vancouver. The mission of the Center for Columbia River History is to promote study of the history of the Columbia River Basin. Introduction For more than 150 years, Vancouver Barracks has been a site of strategic importance in the Pacific Northwest. Established in 1849, the post became a supply base for troops, goods, and services to the interior northwest and the western coast. Throughout the latter half of the nineteenth century soldiers from Vancouver were deployed to explore the northwest, build regional transportation and communication systems, respond to Indian-settler conflicts, and control civil and labor unrest. A thriving community developed nearby, deeply connected economically and socially with the military base. From its inception through WWII, Vancouver was a distinctly military place, an integral part of the city’s character.

Its inspiration came from Carlos Schwantes historical survey, The Pacific Northwest: An Interpretive History which provides a glimpse of national events in American history through a regional approach.

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF M. Susan Van Laere for the degreeof Master of Arts in Applied Anthropologypresented on March 6, 2000. Title: The Grizzly Bear andthe Deer: The History of Federal Indian Policy and Its Impacton the Coast Reservation Tribes of Oregon, 1856-1877. Abstract Approved Redacted for privacy David R. Brauner The Coast Reservation of Oregonwas established under Executive Order of President Franklin Pierce in November,1855, as a homeland for the southern Oregon tribes. It was an immense, isolatedwilderness, parts of which had burned earlier inthe century. There were some prairies where farmingwas possible, but because the reservation system itself and farming,particularly along the coast,were unknown entities, life for the Indianswas a misery for years. Those responsible for the establishmentof the reservation were subject to the vagaries of the weather, the wilderness,the Congress, and the Office of Indian Affairs. Agents were accountable, not only forthe lives of Oregon Indians, but also for allof the minute details involved in answeringto a governmental agency. Some of the agentswere experienced with the tribes ofwestern Oregon; others were not. All of them believedthat the only way to keep the Indiansfrom dying out was to teach them theEuropean American version of agriculturalism.Eventually, if possible, Oregon Indians would be assimilated into the dominant culture. Mostagents held out little hope for the adults of the tribes. This thesis lays out the background for thedevelopment of United States Indian policies. European Americans' etimocentricideas about what constituted civilization became inextricablywoven into those policies. Those policies were brought in their infant stage to Oregon.
