This year, the counseling depart- ment has added new things that it believes will help students with their college and life careers. The counseling office has gained a few new counselors, and this is believed to be a big part in the new resources in the office. “We have a really good nucleus of veteran counselors that look out for us and make sure we’re doing what we’re supposed to be doing, and we have the new excitedness coming in as well,” said new BC counselor MASON J.

  • Ken and Diana Tittle — UFW Volunteers 1971-73
    Ken and Diana Tittle — UFW Volunteers 1971-73 Diana and I had gone from Boston to northern New Mexico and southern Colorado the summer of 1970 on a United Presbyterian health education-based community organizing project called the Health Fair project (something that a classmate of mine, Jon Kay, and I had first developed for the Presbyterians in the Southeast in 1966). We worked some with Presbyterian Medical Services down there (PMS, not initials one would choose these days), and were considering returning to northwestern New Mexico the next year. My idea, though, was to offer myself as an organizing focus. I would say to the people in that doctor- deprived area, “Clearly, one doctor cannot meet your medical needs, and I am not going to try, but I am willing to negotiate with a community group to give you a defined amount of physician services — a contract — and you would have to decide how you wanted to use those services and then how you would address the rest of the medical needs.” I was not interested in going there as a solo doctor just to burn out in a year or two, and I was committed to the idea that “community competence” to address their needs was actually more important to the community’s health than whatever a doctor might do, so in principle, the whole thing seemed to make a lot of sense. But in practice, I had never heard of anyone ever doing or even proposing such a thing before, so it was a little daunting. (“Community competence” was, in fact, a concept and term I myself had invented to sell the Health Fair idea to the Presbyterians, something drawing on my Friends Service Committee experiences.) In the meantime, we returned to Boston for another year, where I had a position as a special fellow in ambulatory medicine (and later an instructorship in internal medicine) with the Harvard Teaching Hospitals.

    THE STORY OF GUADALUPE, ARIZONA: THE SURVIVAL AND PRESERVATION OF A YAQUI COMMUNITY by Leah S. Glaser A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 1996 ABSTRACT Guadalupe’s formation and persistence in the Phoenix area is a long overlooked topic of local history. Despite heavy residential, commercial, and industrial development, the once remote farm labor community has remained impervious to urban expansion. Residents have managed to preserve a degree of cultural and geographic separatism while participating in the economic and political structure of Phoenix’s dominant Anglo society. When late nineteenth century land reform policies of Mexican dictator Porfirio Diaz forced Yaquis from their homeland in Sonora, Mexico and threatened to kill them, Yaqui Indians fled to Arizona. Anglos there were sympathetic to their plight as refugees and Yaquis were able to find a niche in the Salt River Valley’s agricultural economy. Catholic and Presbyterian missionaries also supported the community and helped secure land for a legal townsite. But as immigrants and squatters, the political status of both Yaquis and Guadalupe was legally ambiguous. Meanwhile, many corporations set up labor camps, or “company towns,” the Salt River Valley Water Users’ Association established an exclusively Yaqui village that provided stability for the community’s sustenance and persistence. These factors combined with self identity, determination, and community consciousness to place the Yaqui community in a promising position for sustenance and longevity. By the 1960s, Guadalupe was no longer just a Yaqui community, but a Mexican-American as well. Whether by choice or by proximity, they joined Mexican-Americans in their fight for political voice and economic improvements.
