    Doug Oxsen Oral History Interviews, December 30, 2015 Title “Raising the Bar for OSU Athletics” Date December 30, 2015 Location Valley Library, Oregon State University. Summary Interview #2 begins with Oxsen's broader memories of his basketball career at Oregon State. These memories include the quality of play in the Pac-8 during Oxsen's years as a competitor, the knee injury that he suffered during his freshman year, and the contrasts that he has observed between the culture of basketball during that era with what evolved later on. A major topic of conversation is Oxsen's recollections of playing against Bill Walton's UCLA Bruins and Oregon State's upset of UCLA in 1975, a win that broke UCLA's 49-game conference winning streak. He likewise comments on his interactions with Bill Walton in later years, as well as other noteworthy players against whom he competed. The session then shifts its focus to Oxsen's life following his graduation from OSU. These reflections include a discussion of Oxsen's two years touring the world with the Athletes in Action Christian ministry; his brief stint playing professionally in England; and his private sector work with Universal Gym Equipment and the BikeE Corporation. The remainder of the interview is chiefly devoted to Oxsen's return to OSU and his activities as a fundraiser with the OSU Foundation. Specifically, Oxsen details his involvement with the Raising Reser project as well as the construction of the Basketball Practice Facility, the launch of the Everyday Champions program, and the revival of track and field as an intercollegiate sport at Oregon State.

  • 196 It, Dir. by Andy Muschietti
    The Irish Journal of Gothic and Horror Studies 16 (Autumn 2017) It, dir. by Andy Muschietti (Warner Bros., 2017) It probably goes without saying that we’re in the middle of an evil-clown zeitgeist. If the first decade of the new millennium was all about sparkly vampires, now the men in red noses are having their moment at the forefront of horror. This resurgence of the clown in popular culture may have gained momentum from Chris Nolan’s Batman grim-fest, The Dark Knight (2008), wherein the late Heath Ledger captivated audiences with his performance as the Joker, an enigmatic sociopath in flaking clown white. Notable entries from the horror genre in recent years include Captain Spaulding from Rob Zombie’s House of 1000 Corpses (2003) and The Devil’s Rejects (2005), as well as the gruesome Twisty the Clown from American Horror Story: Freak Show (2014). The latter half of 2016 even brought us alarming news of a real-life plague of clowns, reports pouring in from around the world of sinister costumed figures seen lurking at roadsides and near schools. The hysteria lasted until (as the old joke goes) the clowns’ leader got elected president, and they have all since gracefully retired back into the realm of fiction. Given the general hype, it was only a matter of time before the most famous creepy clown of them all would be given a reboot. It (2017) adapts Stephen King’s 1986 novel of the same name and follows the iconic 1990 miniseries starring Tim Curry. The film tells the story of a group of adolescent underdogs who name themselves ‘The Losers Club’; one of the club’s members, Bill (Jaeden Lieberher), is a thirteen-year-old boy with a debilitating stutter, mourning the disappearance of his little brother Georgie (Jackson Robert Scott).
