Downloaded in November,1989 FACT BOOK 1990 Front Cover OSLJ LOGO The new Oregon State University Logo that appears on the front cover was officially adopted by the University on May 10th, 1989. The logo was designed by David Hardesty, Chair of the Art Department, and Rickabaugh Design of Portland as part of a larger project to develop a signature statement and identity system for OSU. The previous OSU logo consisted of a curved box with the words "Oregon State University" stacked in its lower half. According to Hardesty, "We tried to create something that is at once contemporary but also has a traditional feeling.Obviously, the OSU design is very contemporary--very geometric and stylized.Yet the angular letter forms are traditionally associated with university athletics. The ring around the monogram is quite traditional and evolved from seals." As quoted in OSU This Week, President John Byrne stated that, "We are a modern land grant university. This new logo will take us forward into the 1990's." The PantoneMatchingSystem (PMS) colors for the new logo are as follows: PMS 152 orange for the "0" MonogramPMS 166 -- orange-red for the "S" PMS 173 red-orange for the "U" Seal PMS 403 -- warm gray for the ring Sources: OSU This Week, May 11, 1989.

Again the STATE intent of the document is to present factual and statistical UNIVERSITY information to answer some of the most frequently asked questions about the institution. Administrative Services In late February the Northwest Association of Schools and A600 Colleges will visit Oregon State University to evaluate the entire Corvallis, Oregon university for re-accreditation. ThisFactBook is an integral part of 97331 2128 the self-study document that the visiting team from the Northwest Association will be examining in preparation for. their visit.I believe it represents the depth and scope of the university's activities in an attractive, informative manner. Again I ask for comments from you to help us improve the third edition.I encourage you to contact the Institutional Research and Planning unit of the Office of Budgets and Planning with any thoughts or ideas you might have. Redacted for privacy 503 737 4133 iv Oregon State University Fact Book 1990 PREFACE In March of 1989 the Institutional Research and Planning Unit of the Office of Budgets and Planning produced the first ever Oregon State University Fact Book. Reactions to the book were quite positive. The number of copies printed was short of demand and several individuals and offices were shortchanged in their requests for additional books. Numerous people contacted us to comment on the first edition and many also responded to a formal survey of reactions to the document. Those offering opinions stated that the Fact Book was a useful, comprehensive document. Some expressed relief that now they would be able to go to one major source to get diverse information about the university. Several people noted overlooked areas and recommended additions. Virtually no one recommended elimination of any part of the book. This second edition of the Oregon State University Fact Book incorporates many suggestions for improvement and a number of ideas for expansion. This year it serves a dual purpose. Its main goal is to provide reliable, consistent, and usable information to the university community. However, because 1990 is the year for Oregon State's ten year accreditation review, the Fact Book is also designed to inform members of the visiting team for the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges about the diverse aspects of Oregon State University. The Fact Book was compiled using information from a variety of sources. We are thankful to all those who cooperated with us in our sometimes persistent requests for information. The Office of Budgets and Planning director, Allan Mathany, and staff were especially helpful. Michael Holland and Mervin Mecklenberg of the Archives Unit spent considerable time and effort searching for records of the university for several charts we prepared. Amy Charron, Graphic Designer in the Office of Publications, was quite eager to satisfy our requirements for the cover design and quite patient with later revisions. The university president, provost, and vice presidents carefully reviewed this publication and provided useful comments to us before the final draft was prepared. Many others assisted us in various ways.I wish to thank all of those who helped in this endeavor. Again I ask our readers to be free with their comments and suggestions for improvement. No document ever completely satisfies all audiences but this Fact Book is designed to be useful to you, our readers. Please let me or any other member of the staff know your thoughts by contacting us at the Office of Budgets and Planning either in writing or by telephone (737-4121). c2e A Carol A.

    Memorial Tributes: Volume 3 CHARLES HOWARD VOLLUM 346 Copyright National Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved. Memorial Tributes: Volume 3 CHARLES HOWARD VOLLUM 347 Charles Howard Vollum 1913–1986 By William R. Hewlett Charles Howard Vollum was an Oregonian to the core. He was born on May 31, 1913, in Portland, Oregon, where he not only spent his entire childhood but also obtained his education. He received his B.A. in physics from Portland's Reed College in 1936. Howard Vollum made some of his most notable contributions to science and engineering during World War II as an officer of the U.S. Signal Corps. In early 1941 he was assigned by the Signal Corps to work on problems involving accurate fire control radar at the Air Research and Development Establishment in England. In recognition of his work while with the Signal Corps, he was awarded the Legion of Merit in 1945 by the U.S. government. Later, for the quality of his subsequent work on a precision mortar locator while stationed at the Evans Signal Corps Laboratories in Belmar, New Jersey, he was awarded the Oak Leaf Cluster of the Legion of Merit. One of the abiding interests of Howard Vollum's civilian life was in the cathode-ray oscilloscope. In fact, he designed and built one on his own in the 1930s, shortly after cathoderay tubes became commercially available. It was this personal project that helped him obtain admission to Reed College. While he was still a student at Reed, he built a second, although still primitive, oscilloscope that proved useful in testing audiofrequency amplifiers.

  • Tektronix to Donate 10,000 Ft. Facility for Grad Center
    Tektronix to Donate 10,000 Ft. Facility for Grad Center By State of Oregon, Department of Planning and Development This article and photograph appeared in the May 1965 issue of Grow with Oregon, a state publication of the Planning and Development Division. The article describes progress toward opening the Oregon Graduate Center, a private institution designed to provide the Portland area with much-needed graduate level education in science and engineering. As the article notes, Tektronix, a local high-technology firm and Silicon Forest leader, purchased property adjacent to its own facility in Beaverton and donated it to the forming educational institution. The Silicon Forest is a name for the collective mass of high-technology businesses that developed in and around Portland during the second half of the twentieth century, profoundly impacting the economic development of the state. Unlike some of the nation's other important high-tech centers, such as Santa Clara and Boston, the Silicon Forest did not benefit from close proximity to a major research university that could attract qualified personnel and conduct cutting-edge research and development. Instead, key high-tech firms, most notably Tektronix, filled this void. As an established industry leader, Tektronix attracted talented employees from prestigious universities. The company encouraged employees to pursue advanced degrees, sometimes providing financial backing. In the late 1950s, Tektronix started an in-house continuing education program, which, by the end of the 1960s, had grown as large as some area community colleges. In addition to providing the Oregon Graduate Center with its first temporary facility, Howard Vollum, a Tektronix co-founder and company head, personally donated a considerable sum to open and maintain the institution.
