They only sold 14 cars that year, but since then the company has since grown to dealerships in 18 states, a “Communities Connected by Water” multi-generational family affair, and one of Oregon’s only three current Fortune 500 companies. • Interactive Educational Exhibits This isn’t the DeBoer first donation to SOU.

BearCreekSalmonFestival.net Although SOU doesn’t compete at the top Division I level, there is an estab- lished tradition that success in sports is perhaps the most efficient way to boost overall reputation and standing. For example, an appearance by a school’s bas- ketball team in March’s NCAA tournament translates into a bump in application numbers. But not everyone is happy about the DeBoer contribution. In response to the naming of the pavilion, the Messenger received a few notes and phone calls from current SOU students concerned that they were not given buy-in to the naming. One current student left a voicemail. “Hi Ashland resident and SOU student here,” the voicemail said. “The SOU Foundation decided to sell the new athletic pavilion; it’s gonna be named after Lithia Motors and the DeBoer family.” He added, “The student body is beside ourselves.” On a follow-up phone call with the Messenger, the student pointed out that the students were not given opportunity to voice their opinion on the name of the athletic faculty, and indicated that he thought the family’s politics may not jibe with the student body’s sensibility. Naming a building is a tricky proposition, especially on current college cam- puses, where many different persons feel strong affinities towards the facilities.

As a result, over the decades most of the buildings on campus have been named from suggestions by the students, like Malcolm X and Emily Dick- For more information visit enson, as opposed to names of donors. The trade-off for such idealism, however, www.ashlandfood.coop is that Hampshire College costs upwards of $50,000 each year. This isn’t a completely new tradition. In the 19th century, for example, An- drew Carnegie donated a boatload of money to Princeton, with the caveat that the school would never host a law school and instead would build a lake for a rowing team. “The world needs more rowers, not lawyers,” he is credited with saying. Increasingly schools are relying on these large donations from benefactors as, increasingly, college tuition doesn’t fully pay for the operations of a college, and universities have become needed to fold private donations into their business plan. But perhaps the biggest lesson is that the DeBoer family is choosing generosi- ty over greed. Especially during these times when the leading example of wealth in the United States has used his wealth to flaunt his ego, it is encouraging that a wealthy family in southern Oregon is instead using their money to build com- munity.

Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2005 To Harold Ashenfelter and Amul Desai Preface A crowded, red double-decker bus pulls into the depot and comes to a rest amidst swirling dust and smoke. Its passengers slowly alight and begin to disperse into the muggy evening air. I step down from the bus and look left and right, trying to get my bearings. This is only my second day in Bombay and my first to venture out of the old city center and into the Northern suburbs. I approach a small circle of bus drivers and ticket takers, all clad in loose-fitting brown shirts and pants. They point me in the direction of my destination, the JVPD grounds, and I join the ranks of people marching west along a dusty, narrowing road. Before long, we are met by a colorful procession of drummers and dancers honoring the goddess Durga through thundering music and vigorous dance. The procession is met with little more than a few indifferent glances by tired workers walking home after a long day and grueling commute.

The location is somewhere in Texas. The Black Men (ROY, BIG SID, BENJAMIN, DJANGO, PUDGY RALPH, FRANKLYN, and BLUEBERRY) are slaves just recently purchased at The Greenville Slave Auction in Greenville Mississippi. The White Hillbillies are two Slave Traders called, The SPECK BROTHERS (ACE and DICKY). One of the seven slaves is our hero DJANGO.... he's fourth in the leg iron line. We may or may not notice a tiny small "r" burned into his cheek ("r" for runaway), but we can't help but notice his back which has been SLASHED TO RIBBONS by Bull Whip Beatings. As the operatic Opening Theme Song plays, we see a MONTAGE of misery and pain, as Django and the Other Men are walked through blistering sun, pounding rain, and moved along by the end of a whip. Bare feet step on hard rock, and slosh through mud puddles. Leg Irons take the skin off ankles.
