ethnic studies Students push for program to become a department Students and faculty who sup- jammin’ in the park port the departmentalization of the University’s ethnic studies program have reached what some consider to be the next step toward their goal. The students from the Ethnic Studies Coalition will be meeting with Senior Vice President and Pro- vost Linda Brady on Tuesday to dis- cuss transforming the program into a department. Emily McLain, ASUO president and Ethnic Studies Coalition mem- ber, said that last Friday, Wendy Larson, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, signed a letter endors- ing the departmentalization of the ethnic studies program. “Dean Larson was really the only vocal opposition among the admin- istration,” said McLain. “Her sign- ing a letter endorsing the depart- mentalization of the program really meant a lot.” McLain said that the administra- tion will probably be making a final decision this summer, before Larson leaves her position. McLain said that Brady has been very supportive of the student and faculty effort to departmentalize the program. Kari Herinckx, also an Ethnic Stud- ies Coalition member, said that a committee of faculty members was formed around five weeks ago to re- view and make recommendations about departmentalizing the program to Larson. The committee recently made its recommendation to the dean, kate clark | Photographer said Herinckx. Now the decision is in (Above) Seth Crabtree dances to the music of Wake Robin in the Cuthbert Amphitheater at the Willamette Valley Music Festival Saturday the hands of the Office of Academic evening.
