From new posters and banners to bright orange spots plastered on sidewalks and buildings, OSU’s “Powered by Orange” campaign is making its presence known.” -Ben Sundberg, The Daily Barometer Each school year at Oregon State begins with a chance for new students to get a feel for campus and meet new people. The quad fills with booths, tents, and free food and becomes a a gathering place for students, clubs, organizations, and colleges. Among the traditional events is the New Student Walk, during which students walk together from the MU Quad to Gill Coliseum, where the New Student Convocation takes place. Also, the New Student Picnic offers students a chance to fill up, socialize, and enjoy the fall weather. Connect Week is also a great opportunity for students to get in touch with colleges, departments, majors, and student services at the many events and open houses that take place. An early Monday morning began the week. A long line of students formed in front of Reser Stadium, all in hopes of getting tickets for the following Saturday's football game against University of Arizona. As students continued to flood to Corvallis and unpack, the Powered by Orange Launch Party filled empty stomachs for lunch. On Wednesday students flocked to downtown Corvallis for the Amazing Race, during which local shops and businesses provided promotions, free food, and prizes for students competing in a scavenger hunt. Later on in the evening, Fred Meyer night gathered a crowd of both new and returning students. Each year Fred Meyer holds an after hours event during which students with an OSU ID can access discounted items. Friday marked the end of Connect Week with the first annual Day of Caring.This year's Day of Caring was the first time OSU had partnered with United Way for such an occasion. Corvallis businesses, Corvallis residents, and Oregon State staff and students teamed up to volunteer in the community for a full day. According to Jennifer Moore, the executive director for United Way in Benton and Lincoln Counties, over a thousand people worked on more than 100 different projects. - Erika Altenhofen Right: Students arrive at Gill Coliseum at the end of the New Student Walk.

There was face-painting, the opportunity to go to the game in costume, the traditional bonfire, a 5K race, the annual parade, and much more. During the parade a number of orginizations showed up, including the equestrain team, who was decked out in full OSU colors. Members of the differnt ROTC programs came dressed to the nines and our marching band set the mood with lively music. If that wasn’t enough, the dance team came ready to perform and the largest fire turck in Corvallis thundered down the street adorned with the cheer squad. During the football game, students and members of the band performed Michael Jack- son's Thriller, showing up in almost identical costumes as seen in the video. Students also came to the game dressed in their best costumes to celebrate all hollows eve. And to top it all off, the Beavers won the game against UCLA 26-19. The Powered by Orange 5K walk run was also held during Homecoming on a classically Oregonian overcast afternoon. The top male finisher was Michael Detiennne with a time of 17:04.2. The first place female overall was Ann Carson with the time of 19:37.1. Among the multitude of events, the fall carnival was definatley a highlight of the weekend. Classic games, popcorn and candy, face painting, and fair food brought a carnival atmosphere to Corvallis. Whether you attended one or all of the activities, one thing is for sure... Beaver believers sure know how to throw a party! - Natasha Mackey brother's pop Warner football games.

The Beavs were unable to score for the rest of the game. The Ducks kicked a field goal to put the score at 37-33. Oregon coach Chip Kelly put Le Garrete Blount into the game, who had remained on the side-lines since his historic roughing-up of a Boise State player early in the season. Blount proved to be unstoppable, and kept Oregon State's defense scrambling to prevent another touchdown. The game ended with Duck fans rushing the field in celebration of their ticket to the Rose Bowl. Oregon State's football season didn't end with this loss, however. The following Sunday it was announced that the Beavers would match-up against Bringham Young University of the Mountain West Conference in the Las Vegas Bowl on December 22nd. The Civil War for the 2010 season will surely be an opportunity for the Beavers to prove their growth since this unforgettable year. They will undoubtedly return with an unprecedented appetite for roast duck. - Erika Altenhofen There is no team Oregon State loves to beat more than the Ducks. The Civil War is often the highlight of the football season for both teams. According to Oregon State's Gameday Central, the annual Civil War dates back to 1894. Although Oregon leads the rivalry 56-47-10, Oregon State has never lost hope in beating their most rivaled team in the country. This year's 113th match-up took place in Eugene on Thursday, December 3rd and was nationally televised on ESPN. Not only would the winner of this game claim state-wide boasting rights for the season, but would take the Pacific Northwest title and go on to compete in the Rose Bowl. Since the Ducks' 65-38 win in the 2008 Civil War took away the Beavs' chance to go to the Rose Bowl, even more tension arose between the two teams. This winner-take-all situation created a rivalry with even more emotional investment for players, coaches, and fans than usual. Attendance for the game was 59,597, breaking the Autzen Stadium record. By half-time, the Beavers trailed 10-14 but managed to keep the game close.

Since 2002 Oregon State has won the Civil War Blood Drive five times! Every year the American Red Cross sets up on campus to see just how many dedicated Beavers show up. This year, out of 8,388 participants, 4,792 were Orange and 3,959 were green. Not enough numbers for you? The amount of donors from last year to this year is a positive difference of 853! For two weeks, students, teachers, and fans alike came from every part of Oregon and surrounding areas to support their team. Not everyone could give a pint of blood due to some of the restrictions, but everyone who signed up got to put in their names as supporters for their school. After the event was over, the thousands of pints of blood were taken to Portland where they underwent a series of extremely strict tests. If deemed perfectly healthy and free of anything harmful, they are sold to hospitals in need. A big thanks to all of those who donated! - Story by Natasha Mackey Facts provided by The Gazette Times and the American Red Cross pkuto by Jrffrty Bcumgrr photobry Jtf'rry Banngrr photo by folly Coronado Top: Vials filled with donated blood from Wednesday’s drive.

Some students take advantage of the time off school to work. Whether the job is for a little extra Christmas money or is meant to fulfill an internship requirement, there is typically a higher than average number of job opportunities out there.

She says the job is helping prepare her for a career after college, and this internship may even land her a job with the Oregon Department of Fisheries and Wildlife one day. On the other end of the spectrum, student Stephen Hodges traveled to Texas and Louisiana with his parents. They went on day trips to Austin, Fredericksburg, and saw a lot of other attractions, like NASA in Houston. Stephen sang karaoke in New Orleans, travelled north along plantation properties, and ended up in Dallas where it actually snowed! The Hodges had their first big family Christmas in Dallas with their Aunt, Uncle, and cousins and then headed to Houston to fly back home. As students returned back to school in January, the countdown silently began until Spring Break, when warmer weather awaits. - Erika Altenhofen photo by Chntfian Hunt Not Hybernating: “Of course I’d like to have been able to just relax over the break, but I was busy working.

Each year. Black History Month here at OSU is prefaced with a two week long celebration of perhaps the most important figure in civil rights history. We all know Martin Luther King Jr. as a man who roused the inner voice of many and encouraged them to provoke a positive change in our society. During this week, we are reminded of the stepping stone put in place during MLK's time, and are appreciative for the opportunity to share our campus equally. During the week before the MLK, Jr. holiday, the Memorial Union showed movies, hosted speakers, and held activities that emphasized the Civil Rights Movement, equality, and community involvement. On Wednesday, Jan 13th, students began their participation in the campus-wide scavenger hunt and were able to sign their name on the MLK, Jr. Pledge Wall. By doing so, they reaffirmed their support for nonviolent social change, equality, and justice, freedom and peace. The MLK, Jr. Holiday was kicked off with the 28th annual Peace Breakfast in the MU Ballroom, at which awards were presented, A Capella group Out-Spoken performed, Dr. Richard Lapchick spoke, and a video by Terryl Ross was shown. Several children’s events were held in the MU and the Native American Longhouse. Later, the Black Cultural Center held a birthday party for MLK, Jr. The day ended with a candlelight vigil procession from the Black Cultural Center to the MU Steps, and a round table discussion followed. Students took advantage of the day away from classes, and by Tuesday, classes were back in full swing. The celebration, however, wasn't over. The MU and cultural centers continued to hold events and speeches for another week. Saturday, January 23rd marked the end of the celebration with the Reign 2010 Strolling Competition. The first annual event invited fraternities and sororities from Oregon, Washington, and Idaho to compete in the step-like dance competition for a $1,000 prize. Oregon State University sorority Gamma Alpha Omega participated in the dance, which originates from African American culture. Kappa Delta Chi Sorority from University of Washington and Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity from Portland State University took home the grand prizes. The event was a success and provided for a fun transition into Black History Month. - Erika Altenhofen Top . President Ed Ray speaks at the 28th Annual Peace Breakfast.

The bi-monthly event provides students with an opportunity to watch newly release or not-yet-released movies on a big screen, while enjoying free snacks and drinks. The free event was held in several places, including Trysting Tree Lounge, Dixon Rec Center, and the MU Commons. Some of the movies that were shown were award-winning movies The Blind Side, starring Sandra Bullock, and Shutter Island, with Leonardo DiCaprio. The Memorial Union Program Council wanted to provide students with a safe activity after dark, so that potentially less trouble would be caused after the sun goes down.

This year there were 10 performances, all varying in genre and dynamic, the most popular style of the night being hip-hop. Every penny raised during the event went to a non-profit organization called The Hunger Project. Feel Good World, the program whose slogan is above, encouraged student organizations to hold events in order to raise money for different charities. They also encouraged their students to make grilled cheese sandwiches and give them away free, in the hopes that patrons will donate money. Every Wednesday in the MU Quad, the Feel Good club did just that. - Natasha Mackey “The Hunger Project is building epicenters in third world countries to provide food in the form of a supermarket, allowing people to become self sustainable.

Oregon State buildings and sidewalks were in dire need of updating, for better access for those in wheelchairs and for people with other disabilities. The ADA (American's with Disabilities Act) called for the updating, and the Associated Students of OSU obliged willingly, passing a bill to renovate. Dump trucks, jackhammers, backhoes, cement mixers, and men in orange hats were sem-ingly always present during the school year, making sure the job was done right. Plans for the renovation included updating two lecture halls, Gilfillan and Milam, and adding another disabled access classroom space in Wilkinson. There were also construction sites along the streets around the edge of campus. Construction at these sites focused on improving parking accessibility on 26th street and making sidewalk repairs from Gilfillan and Wilkinson to the Memorial Union Quad. The bill to renovate campus came to about $400,000, not including the massive construction of the new Linus Pauling Center. The estimated time of completion for sidewalk and building renovations was June 30th. The mark was not hit directly on time, but the projects were completed within the following month. The Hailey Ford building and new dorm for international students are projected to open sometime during the 2010-2011 school year, and will be located near the Pride Center on the southern end of campus. - Natasha Mackey Above: Street and sidewalk construction to improve accessibility to campus.

Opposite page, bottom right: Certain members of the campus community are unaffected by the construction, noise, and detours. Spring Break is that much needed week of respite from the demands of winter term. As soon as students complete their finals, they are filled with the relief of putting another term behind them, and are in a sense free to do whatever they please until the beginning of spring term. Some students work, some go home to visit family, some fly to the tropics, and some hang out in Corvallis. A select few, however, take advantage of the time off to volunteer. A group of students from OSU teamed up with students from the University of Oregon to volunteer around the state. The trip was an educational community service adventure during which the students exlpored how the communities they visited were effected by poverty. 30 lire According to Levi Downey, an OSU student member of the group, they toured around Klamath Falls with local tribal leaders, painted a youth center, traveled to Lake View and were given a tour of geo-thermal energy and other forms of green energy emerging there. Lastly, the group traveled to Burns and cleaned up and painted a women's shelter and gave a face-lift to their youth center. Every night after cooking dinner, the students would share ideas regarding community, poverty, and how these communities are dealing with daily sturggles. It was quite a busy but informative week for the students who chose service and experience over relaxation! - Erika Altenhofen Above: Allison Ju and Benny Kang work on the group mural created in a women’s shelter.

Levi Downey Below: Vice Presidential candidate Nolan Nichols answers a question during the debate. “Our mission is to promote self-government and leadership within the student body of Oregon State University, thereby enhancing the educational, social and cultural experience of the students.” TheASOSU president and vice president positions aren't held by just any Oregon State student with leadership skills. The leaders have to be voted into place by a majority of the voting student body, and getting them to do so is a task in itself. Like any government race, candidates vying for the position must answer tough questions and show how they'll use their skills once in office. The debate is a great place for candidates to do this. Held in the MU commons, the ASOSU and MUPC (Memorial Union Program Council) candidates provide information to the general public.

He's the face of all fans and students of Oregon State Univerity. He attends all sporting events and many of the large campus-wide events. His apperance and attitude sets the standard for all around him. During home football games, Benny performs with the marching band in the half time shows. Every fall, mascot applications are open to all OSU students, but they must prove their pep skills in an audition before assuming the in- famous Benny persona. The title includes travelling far and wide with the marching band and select athletic teams. This year Benny was lucky enough to venture to Las Vegas with the football team and show he had more spirit than BYU's Cosmo the Cougar. Without Benny, the Oregon State community would not be quite the same. He is an inspirational figure for OSU and the face of Beaver Spirit everywhere. - Jessica Maynard photo by Sam Yti $ photo by Kelly Coronado photo by Nathan Raymond tuuuto luou photo nmrieirv « Hui-O-Hauui Club photo aturlfxy of llui-O-Huuaii Club The Luau is an annual evening's festivities, which inevent put on by the Hui-O- eluded a traditional hula dance, Hawaii Club.

There were animals ranging from colorful birds upon their mastersshoulderstogigantic snakes, to pigmy ponies and milk goats. Of course, the most abundant animal present was man's best friend, the dog. This year there were over fifty booths set up around Magruder Hall. The booths were showcased by flea product representatives, veterinarians from around the area, the Humane Society, pet adoption centers, dog food brands, and many more. Almost all gave away free products and food for people and pets alike! One booth boasted a prize spinning wheel, and for only a dollar, a spinner could win dog treats and toys. Alongside the myriad of booths were stations which featured fun activities such as animal caricature drawings, alongside a picture booth and a dog washing station. The Corvallis Police Department even brought out their Canine Unit for demonstrations. Inside the hall were several interesting attractions, one of which was the life-size cow and horse skeletons exhibit. First and second year students at the College of Veterinary Medicine were the ones who organized the event, giving them the chance to become proactive members of their college right away. No matter what the weather is like, or what pets show up, it seems as though pet day will be a long-held tradition at OSU and the College of Veterinary Medicine. - Natasha Mackey all photos by Natasha Mackey Top left: A yellow Boa Constictor and his chaufer take a break in the shade.

Of course, mothers the much needed love photo by Kelly Coronado to eat the delicious pancakes, eggs, and ham, bringing the total money earned to $4,100. All of the donations went to the Mario Pastega Charitable Organization. The school hosted a multitude of events including the Masquerade Revolution Fashion Show, which was held in the MU ballroom on Saturday. Inspiration for the fashion show came from Lady Gaga and the event hosted 19 retailers from around the area, including some student designers.

Every year on campus, Pride Week is a time where serious issues are brought to the surface, and a time where people can be whoever they wish. However,theweekisn'tallserious bussiness. Every day this pride week there were fun activities that anyone could be a part of including; the LGBTQQIAAPP02S-BBQ, a Coming out 101 meeting, an Exploring Sexual Orientation, and many more events, adding up to around 21 different activities. The most popular event during Pride Week is the The Spring Drag Show hosted by the Rainbow Continuum. The show, which has been around since the 1970's was held in the MU Ballroom and was the last event, lasting from 8:00 to 10:30 p.m. Among many things during the show, models strutted their stuff down the runway, rewarded by audience members with dollar bills, and performers lip-synched popular songs for the crowd. The general atmoshpere of the drag show is pure fun and entertainment. It is no mystery why it is the most attended event during Pride Week. -Natasha Mackey photo by Jeff Basinger photo by Jeff Basinger Far left: Performers at Drag Show have fun at Friday’s performance.

Campus Rail Jam Tour, the group who puts on the show, is sponsored by Cricket and Ford and has been a growing business venture since 2005. The men and wormen of Campus Rail Jam Tour started travelling in February at the University of Arizona and made ten more stops throughout the west. They performed at schools in Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and California. For the first time at OSU, a beer garden was available for those over 21 who wanted a chance to relax with a beer and watch the festivities. Members of the crowd managed to win a variety of prizes, from T-shirts and sunglasses to a snowboard. Aside from the snowboarders who travel with the tour group, those who want to join in on the performance were welcome to do so. Applicants were required to file a form online and submit a video of themselves snowboarding or skiing. - Kelly Coronado Right: At his particular event, women snowboarders challenged the men in a skills competition. photo by Kelly Coronado 1 photo by Nathan Raymond 'r i yf C photo by Nathan Raymond Li c photo by Nathan Raymond photo by Kelly Coronado photo by Nathan Raymond Top: Campus Rail Jam Tour has been rained out once during a visit to a school in Washington.

Whether it's a friend, a parent, a sibling, a grandparent, or themselves, cancer touches everyone is some way. Perhaps that is why Relay! For Life is always such a huge success at OSU and across the country. This year over 1,100 people showed up in the MU Quad in support of the American Cancer Society. The event, hosted overnight in recognition that cancer never sleeps, brought in 65,000 dollars. This staggering amount of money will be used in the search for a cure, research into new treatments, and equipment badly needed in the fight against cancer. Those who came walked the perimeter of the Quad, passing by tent stations along the way. A total of 85 teams participated this year, and all of them brought as many team members as they could to help. Each Relay for Life team had a station set up with various activities in order to raise money. As the hours came and went, so did people around the Quad. During all hours of the day, and well into the night, every team had at least one team member out on the track. Not only team members walked however, some were friends or family, keeping the team members company. Some walked simply because they felt the need, and some ran or jogged in support of those raising money. - Natasha Mackey it For a weekend in Spring each year, the Memorial Union Quad is completely transformed from a quiet college campus gathering place to a rowdy music hall. Two stages frame the entrance to the MU, fences are erected, and beer gardens are furbished. The week-long preparation is for nothing other than the Battle of the Bands, which takes place on Friday, and Flat Tail Festival, which follows on Saturday evening. In its eleventh straightyear, the Battle of the Bands was again a success. Bands from around Corvallis, many of who's bandmembers are students, put their best drumsticks forward in an effort to claim the winning title at the end of the battle. It’s not just an honor to win, however. The best band gets to be the opening performance at the Flat Tail Festival, which features larger and more well-known bands from around the Willamette Valley and the Pacific Northwest at large. Pseudoboss, the title holder from the 2009 Battle, was present this year and proved again to be a force to be reckoned with. Other bands included Stateside, motae, The Angries, The Likeness, FTRSNZ (Future Sunz), Evlove, Of Saints and Shadows, Target for Tomorrow and the Horns of Destruction, Hallways of Always, and Lost Tortoise. The event kicked off at about 4 pm and could be heard from all corners of campus until around 11. The Angries won the competition, with Of Saints and Shadows in second, and Target for Tomorrow and the Horns of Destruction in third. Congratulations to all the bands who competed. This favorited event on campus surely isn't going anywhere soon! - Erika Altenhofen all photo.s by Kelly Coronado Top, right: Ben Metzger of FTRSNZ, who, with soundman Chris Kennedy, creates a hip hop sound with a focus on lyricism.

Flat Tail Festival is the second, encore night of the big music festival weekend, following local bands in Battle of the Bands the night before. Bands for Flat Tail Festival come from all over all over Oregon and Washington, creating a celebration of Pacific Northwest music. The Angries, reigning champions of the Battle of the Bands, followed tradition and opened the event at approximately 5:45 pm. Some of the bands that followed included Bob Champions, 1 Will Be King, St. Helens Vietnam Band, Yacht, and Neon Indian. Minus the Bear, a Seattle band gaining quite a bit of popularity, was the headlining band.

Among the many events was the tour and activities at the Oak Creek Center for Urban Horticulture, the Earth Day HooHaa celebration put on by the OSU Organic Growers Club, an open house at the Student Sustainability Center, and a lecture by Dennis Dimick on the most recent scientific reports on climate change from National Geographic. During the Student Sustainability Open House, there was information on how to get involved with the organization, food, and juice that came in free to-go coffee mugs. This year was the 8th year for the Earth Day HooHaa photo courtesy of google images party. The first one was by the covered bridge and we had free pie, said James Cassidy an OSU professor and faculty advisor for the OSU Organic Growers Club. Through the afternoon at the HooHaa, there was local music and rows and rows of people planting, along with merchandise, live chicks and rabbits, the Reality Zone,” and free food! OSU campus held events all throughout Earth Week, celebrating40yearsofhelping the planet, but Earth Day was the main day on campus. Fun could be found on any corner of campus, ensuring the return of traditional Earth Day events next year. - Natasha Mackey bl i y e all photos by Natasha Mackey “Everything from the music to the food to the ‘Pit of Reality’ was spot on bid I cannot wait till next year!” -Nicole Page Above: Live local music and jokes made eating free food an even more enjoyable experience.

It was a historic year for the University, graduating a record 4,496 students. Approximately 2,600 of these graduates walked into Reser Stadium to receive their degrees. A record high 4,695 degrees were recognized. Within this graduating class were the oldest graduate at 76 and the youngest graduate at 19. Also being recognized at the 2010 ceremony was Ralph Martinson, who turned 100 in May. He received an honorary diploma since he didn't get one at the end of his stint at OSU. He left OSU in 1933, just six months shy of receiving his degree, to buy into a grocery store in Portland, Oregon. It is kind of nice, Martinson told a reporter from The Oregonian. 1 don't think it is going to do me much good as far as work. Don Petit, a 1978 OSU graduate and NASA astronaut, addressed the audience as the keynote speaker. He was also awarded an Honorary Doctorate Degree. Pettit noted in his speech that it's not about what you have done. It is about what you are going to do; it is about the future. Celebration vibrated the stadium as the ceremonyy wrapped up. Graduates cheered Go Beavs! as they realized they had completed their last day as an OSU student. Congratulations to the Oregon State University Class of 2010!

Fall term once again provided students with beautiful weather for tail-gating and even selling their parking spaces to incoming Beaver fans. An unmistakably circus-like atmosphere surrounds Corvallis during home game Saturdays. The season had its ups and downs. From losing to Oregon to winning an appearance in the Las Vegas Bowl, and from celebrating a winning season to USC threatening to offer coach Mike Riley a position as head coach, we've nearly seen it all. Thankfully to OSU fans everywhere, Mike Riley turned down the Trojans and proclaimed his loyalty to his promising Beavers by extending his contract. Who could forget the Rodgers brothers who indisputably ignited a flame under the tail of our Beaver team? Both have received honors for breaking all-time records at OSU and have carved their names onto the team's top 10 lists for many different achievements. James, a senior wide receiver, broke the OSU record r receptions in a single sea- son with 91! Yes, in a single season! He's on OSU top 10 lists for number of all-purpose yards, career receptions, receiving yards, receiving touchdowns (14 in his career), and the list goes on. Little brother Jacquizz, a sophomore running back, ended the season having been a candidate for the Heisman Trophy. He put his name on OSU's top 10 lists for total yards, at 2,693 and counting. He's also on lists for career rushing touchdowns, career scoring (192 points), and more. It's no wonder his nickname on his Texas high school football team was Mr. Touchdown.” Overall, it's safe to say the '09 team set a precedent for seasons to follow. This was the third consecutive year the team was honored with the award for Most Family Friendly Program, given by College Football Live's! Family Atmosphere Awards. The award is given to the team that encourages team unity, supports academics, exhibits loyalty, and prepares athletes for life after football. Apparently, this was a winning season in more ways than one! - Erika Altenhofen photo by Kelly Coronado 59 photo by Solhan Raymond photo by Killy Coronado Above: The Beavers defense tangles up with University of Arizona.

No. 84 Taylor Kavanaugh. a wide receiver from Portland, OR. and No. 95 Latu Moala, a defensive tackle from Hayward, CA. The 2009-2010 season was undoubtedly a memorable one, especially for our graduating seniors. We all remember Lyle Moevao injuring his shoulder during the pre-season practice, which we’d find out would mean he’d be sitting out for his senior season. The quarterback had become one of our best ever, receiving honors as sixth all-time at OSU for passing yards (3,410) and passing touchdowns (21) and being co-team captain. Sean Canfield was the quarterback's replacement. He managed to meet Moevao's 21 touchdown passes this year alone, and through for 3,271 yards. He led the Beavs to a winning 8-5 season and to the Las Vegas Bowl in is final year. His OSU career passing yards were 5,970. He also mustered 38 touchdowns, which puts him at number 4 on OSU’s all-time list for total career touchdowns. He was also chosen to play in the 2010 Under Armour Senior Bowl. I just hope to expand on what I did my senior year,” said Canfield about his appearance. Keaton Kristick was another memorable player during his stint with the Beavers. As a co-team captain, he received national attention and was one of 41 players on the Lott Trophy Watch List. Ted Miller of ESPN, com put him at the 28th best player in the league. He finished his college career with 2 interceptions and a fumble return. The Seniors of the 09-10 season are best remembered as a class that helped carry their team to a winning season and a bowl game appearance. They've surely left their team mates with fond memories, and will not be easily forgotten by Beaver football fans! Not pictured on this page are No. 88 Howard Croom. a tight end from Long Beach.

After a day of practice, both the Beavers and BYU Cougars attended the Terry Fator comedy show. A challenge between teams ultimately led to a BYU player dressing like Cher onstage and using a puppet from the show as a prop. After the show, Sean Canfield was involved in a photo shoot that was later played during game. On the last day before the big game, the offensive line enjoyed a walk through with College Football Hall of Famer Mark May. Both teams filled up and enjoyed entertainment at the Outback Buffet Bowl. The 18th Annual MAACO Las Vegas Bowl game was on a cold and gusty night, and the sold out crowd and players endured up to 55 mph winds. This was a highly anticipated game because both teams were ranked. Four plays into the game the Beavers scored. Beavers were up 7-0 with 8:46 left in the first quarter. The Cougars scored their first with 3:00 left in the first quarter. After a muffed punt the Beavers returned for a touchdown, which was called back for holding. By the end of the first quarter the Beavers were down 14-7. With 5 penelties against the Beavers and an interference call, the Cougars scored a 36 foot field goal. With 5 minutes left in the second quarter, the Cougars scored a touch- down, but the Beavers blocked the extra point. With wind issues really affecting the Beavers, two 6 yard punts really didn't help them out. By halftime Cougars were up 7-3. After a failed fake punt from the Beavers, the Cougars took over in field goal range and scored a touchdown just a few minutes later. In the fourth quarter, James Rodgers fumbled a reception in the Beavers territory. The Beavers scored two late touchdowns in the fourth, in a desperate effort to make a comback. Despite the players best efforts, the wind dealt a devastating hand that cost the Beavers the game. BYU won 44-20. - Jessica Maynard Thanks to lasvegassun.com all pholt ft KiKan hrwktna Above: Dax Dilbeck looks for a pass. Top right: Jovan Stevenson flies into the air to cover the offense.

They are are a unit, an unstopable force moving as one, and a family. During fall term the boys won a total of ten games, lost six, and three were tied. Their best win was against Cal State Baskerfield, with a dominating score of 4-0. Colin Mitchell and Danny Mwanga scored two goals apiece in the game, leading the Beavers 4-0 before the half. Anoher dominating game was against Trinity Western with a final score of 5-2. Whether up against a pac-10 team or another rival, the men's soccer team kicks butt. Not only does the team give their best efforts on the field, but off the field as well. Mike Miller and Scott Johnson joined former football player Yvenson Bernard in an effort to raise funds and donations for the victims of the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. Bernard, several team members, friends, and student-athletes banded together to help the cause. Because of their hard work, Beaver Nation donated 24,000 pounds of goods and several thousand dollars were raised by the International Sports Agency Children's Foundation. - Natasha Mackey, statistics provided osubeavers.com Opposite, top left: Justin Woodward Opposite, top right:Colin Mitchell stays ahead to keep ball rolling.

You would find a sister-hood, a community of dedicated student-athletes who function as a whole when they are on and off the field. The ladies kicked off the season with a game against Portland State. Despite the girls giving their hardest effort, the visiting team won 1-0. Beavers are not ones who give up easily however, and after the initial loss, went on to win seven games in a row. The highest scoring game was the Beavers' domination over Nevada with a score of 4-0 and in addition, the team went on to beat four nationally ranked schools. The civil war was also an OSU beat down with Oregon scoring no goals, and our ladies scoring two. At the end of this season the team held their annual banquet in order to reflect on their accomplishments and give awards where they were deserved. The overall 14-8-1 marks the second most wins in school history! An appearance in the NCAA Women's Soccer Champi-onsip and a trip to the sweet 16 ended a fantastic season for the Women's Soccer team. Another accomplishment was the team's College Team Academic Award, fromthe NationalSoccerCoaches Association of America, for their average GPA average of 3.18. - Natasha Mackey 4 all pbotot by athan Raymond FOULS {( uetics Top: Rachael Axon earned her NSCAA All-Region and first-team All Pac-10 Conference honors.

The team kept busy with multiple games per week, but they didn't let that distract them from their school work. Senior Julie Futch, junior Talisa Rhea, and sophomore Kirsten Tilleman were awarded with Pac-10 All Academic Honors. After losing just two of their first 13 games, the women of OSU faced a tough schedule and a 17 game losing streak to opponents who were mostly from the Pac-10 division. Individual wins continued throughout the season, however. in December, Kirsten Tilleman was deemed Oregon State's Everyday Champion. She was recognized for her 4.0 GPA throughout high school and for continuing her efforts both on and off the court since moving to Corvallis for the 2008-09 season. She came from Boze- man, Montana, also a college town, and was used to the community support surrounding her school. She also encouraged more recycling at Gill Coliseum in an effort to represent student athletes as more environmentally responsible people. More awards were to follow. Both Kirsten and Talisa were named to ESPN The Magazine's Academic All-District 8 Second Team. In March, Anita Burdick became the second member of the team to be named an Everyday Champion and was recognized for her efforts towards her psychology degree. Guard Haiden Palmer was named to the Pac-10 All-Freshman Team and Talisa was selected to the All-Pac-10 Honorable Mention Team. Seniors Stacey Nichols, Julie Futch, and Anita Burdick plan on beginning their careers upon graduation in communication, elementary education, and psychology, respectively. - Erika Altenhofen I -5, Far left: The Lady Beavs lost to USC 50-53 at home late —- in the season.

The two-time defending champions, Boise State, were beat into second place by the Beavers, placing Cal Poly in third. The event was hosted by the University of Nebraska and the Omaha Sports Commission. Among the six individuals sent to Omaha were redshirt freshman Mike Mangrum, redshirt shophomore Jason Lara, junior Colby Covington, sophomore Clayton Jack, and sophomore Kelly Kubec. During the first day of the NCAA tour-nement, Covington got a perfect 2-0 mark, helping to place OSU in 14th place by the end of the day. Jason Lara scored the first win for the Beavers with a 9-2 decision, followed closely with a win from Kelly Kubec at 133 pounds. Mike Mangrum earned the first bonus win during that first day. All six wrestlers advanced to day two of the championships. Unfortunatley the NCAA trip ended Friday for the wrestlers. They finished out the day with 18.5 team points tied for 29th place. - Natasha Mackey photo by Nathan Raymond photo by Elba Rritkaon “It was a team effort.This tournament everybody contributed and scored points.

Freshman Makayla Stambough ( 5th on floor) and Senior Mandi Rodrigue (4th on vault, 12th on beam, 15th on floor and 11th in all around). Seniors included Laura-Ann Chong, Mandi Rodriguez and Whitney Watson. These women held on to nationally ranked standings all season long. The season opener was held at Gill Coliseum, as was the 30th annual Salbas-geon Suites Invitational. Making her first appearance with a splash, Makayla Stambough won the all-around in her first career meet. Laura-Ann Chong set career-high scores in the uneven and floor exercise. Oregon State put on a show for a crowd at Gill Coliseum when they scored a season-high average and outscored No. 21 Arizona. The fight for the NCAA Championships was short lived as the ladies fought tough teams and fell short in qualifying for the Super Six team finals. The ladies ended their season as 8th in the nation. Mandi Rodriguez finished 3rd in the nation on vault and received first team All American honors on vault and second team All American honors on floor and all-around.

But when Spring rolls around, break out the peanuts and crackerjacks, because Goss Stadium is a great place to spend an afternoon as a Beaver supporter. The Beavs recorded another great season, winning 32 games and losing 24. The team tied with Arizona for 7th in the Pac-10 with a 12-15 record. OSU was just two games behind No. 4 Stanford. With a grand total of 32 of their games played at home, Corvallis didn't miss out on much of the Beav’s triumphs. Coach Pat Casey finished off another great season, even though the College World Series wasn't in the crosshairs of this year's team. Postseason action was, however, and the Beavers advanced to the Gainesville Regional, putting OSU in the postseason for the fifth time in the past six years. The Beavs went 1-2 in the Gainesville Regional, before being eliminated by Florida Atlantic. As far as awards go, the Beavers weren't short changed. Adalberto Santos and Stefan Romero were named to the All-Pac-10 Team. Matt Boyd earned Freshman All-American honors by Louisville Slugger and the NCBWA. Four of the weekly Pac-10 Pitcher of the Week awards were given to Tanner Robles, Sam Gaviglio, and Greg Peavey, who earned two of them. During the first 22 rounds of the MLB First-Year Player Draft, eight OSU players were selected. Six players were selected in the first nine rounds of the MLB Draft, setting an OSU record. Previously, 5 players had been selected in the first 10 rounds in 2007. With 32 wins this season, coach Casey is inching ever closer to winning the most games as a coach in OSU history. He's won 537 and needs only 25 more to place second. The record holding coach is jack Riley, who won 613 from 1973-94. - Rrika Altenhofen Top: Senior Adalberto Santos prepares to bat.

Sctri rimi alt photo by Nathan Kaym'snd In the Willamette Valley, swimming is considered something you do indoors, or when you take a trip to California. However, to the OSU swim team, it's considered a means to improve upon and develop athletic skills for the rest of their lives. In this sport, every millisecond can make the difference between a defeat and a victory. This year at Belmont Plaza Olympic Pool in Long Beach California, the women's swim team won 7th place in the Pac-10 championships. During the event, Anna Crandall broke the oldest school record with a time of 24.10 in the 50 free-style. It was the forth record she had broken during the championships. Brittney Iverson set a personal record in the 200 individual medley when she finished with a 2:01.29 time. In addition, during the competition Rachael Wahl made it onto the OSU all-times list at number 10 with a time of 2:05.07. For the first time in Oregon state history, sophomore Anna Heller was invited to the NCAA Division 1 women's swimming championships in the 100 and 200-yard backstroke. Heller broke the school's 100-yard backstroke record during the Pac-10 championships. Although Anna did not set any times in either backstroke event to proceed to the finals, she set a personal lifetime record. Saturday morning Heller swam a 1:57.21 in the 200-yard backstroke event, giving her a high bar to beat for next year’s season. - Natasha Mackey “I’ve been swimming my whole life and I chose it because it has been my passion since before I can remember. The best thing about the team here at Oregon State is the support we give each other and the support we get from the community. There are a ton of things I will miss about swimming. I will miss the team work, training, competition, racing, and representing my school doing the thing I love.

From practicing year round on the conveniently-located Willamette River, to finishing the season on the East Coast, stamina is key for each member of the team. The Men ended the season in New Jersey, where the team raced to a fifth-place finish in the varsity 8 C final at the IRA Championships in early June. The Beavs finished the regatta in 17th place overall. The team faced a few setbacks before the final race, after senior Mike Buckiewicz fell to a serious back injury. Andrew Read raced in his place. The open four crew placed sixth overall in the Grand Final, while the freshman eight crew placed 12th overall in the Petite Final. Awards are never lacking at the end of any Beaver squad's season, especially not for our rowers. Buckiewicz was named to Men's Rowing All Pac-10 Squad, Pat Kohan and Sam Schwartz were named OSU's Everyday Champions, and Jon Young was named to the 2009 Arthur Ashe Jr. Sports Scholar team. Recognition should certainly not be overlooked for former Beavs who have achieved honors since graduating OSU. Former Beaver crew member Joey Hansen was one of 18 inductees into the National Rowing Hall of Fame. He was a member of the 2004 Athens Olympic gold medal squad. Other former OSU rowers were honored with spots on the US National Team. Dan Scholz (2006) and John Wainwright (2008) both qualified for the squad at the 2009 World Championships Trials in August of 2009. Undoubtedly, OSU’s Men's crew will continue to send off Olympians and Hall-of-Famers as they develop their strength even further. - Erika Altenhofen IIO lA Mn t s routing Oregon is known for it's scenic highways and picturesque mountains. The Women's Rowing team gets to show off their skills on some of the most beautiful rivers around the state and throughout the country, including of course, the swift Willamette.

Kelly Dyer and Nicole Luchanski led the team and were selected to the All-Academic first team. The last home game of the season, also recognized as senior day, was played against Arizona State. It would be the last game for the five senior Beavers: Dani Chisholm, Kelly Dyer, Tara Black, Katelyn Miller and Alana Ford. The Beavers won the series against the Sun Devils, first losing 4-3, then coming back for a 2-1 and a 4-3 win. Lea Cavestany had a successful season, with a batting average of .350, seven homeruns, 34 RBI and 11 doubles. She was also picked for the All-Pacific region Team. Also this year there were seven players that earned Pac-10 Honors: Audrey Roderfield, Lea Cavestany, Dani Chisolm, Paige Hall, Ally Kutz, Marina Demore, and Maggie Doremus.

The Women's Golf team is a prime example of this. Four of the golfers were named to the 2010 Pac-10 Conference Women's Golf All-Academic team. To be eligible for selection to this team, a 3.0 minimum GPA is required, and the athlete must be either a starter or significant contributor to the team. Sophomore Whitney French, senior Brittany Stewart, senior Lauren Archer, and sophomore Elyse Okada were all honored with selections to the All-Academic team. Throughout the season, the Lady Beavers travelled across the country in a series of tournaments. They started the season strong after tying for 5th at the season opener at the Washington State University Inland Cup. Brittany Stewart was named OSU’s Everyday Champion in late September, and collected fourth place at the Giustana Memorial Tournament.

Who knew a Beaver could run so fast?! - Erika Altenhofen all photos by Nathan Raymond 150 {(h ciics Eric Robbins, also known as the 0 guy, became an icon at Oregon State Athletics during the 2010 school year. Most fans knew him as the guy in the front row holding the big “0” because of his iconic 0 sign. Nicknames for him ranged from the 0” guy to Lion and Wild Thing , but for Robbins, it was just about supporting his Beavs, not the attention. The crowd at home and fans all around came to love his energy and appreciate his efforts to get the crowd going. Athletes loved his dedication and even asked him personally to come to games. He was an inspiration to all Oregon State athletes and fans. Eric's first display of the 0 began at the 2008 OSU vs. Cal Football game. During a shot of the crowd Eric was holding up an 0 shape with his hands, and someone handed him the 0 that is now signed by many OSU athletes. This football season, Eric had to raise funds to be able to go the Las Vegas Bowl. He was able to raise sufficient funds by holding a sign that said Need Dollars for Vegas Bowl at the last few home football games. Clearly, Beaver fans wanted his unique form of support at the big game in Vegas. He became a sort of representative for all the fans who could not make it themselves. Eric attended OSU in 2010 as a senior in mathematics and economics with hopes to become an actuary. He was active as a Dj at KBVR, the campus radio station. As of Spring 2010, the fate of the famous 0 sign has notyetbeen decided, but it has certainly become an icon of OSU athletics and fans everywhere. - Jessica Maynard Special thanks to the Daily Barometer all photo by Nathan Raymond photos by Nathan Raymond A late Spring evening provides the perfect setting for a Beaver baseball game in Goss Stadium.

A small piece of their mission statement says, The College of Agricultural Sciences at Oregon State University is Oregon's principal source of knowledge relating to agricultural and food systems, and a major source of knowledge regarding environmental quality, natural resources, life sciences, and rural economies and communities worldwide.” Native Oregonians know how important it is to have a college that offers a chance to learn about why the Willamette Valley is the perfect place for this type of program. The college offers a variety of degree programs including: agricutural business managment, animal sciences, biosource research, crop and soil sciences, food science and technology, horticulture, natural resources and many more. c (4(t’ UCS A small but important part of the College of Agricultural Science at OSU is the Department of Crop and Soil Science. The department hosts a wheat research program, for example, which works to develop a breed of wheat that will resist disease and produce a high yield. The program hires students to help with the many tasks involved in the wehat breeding process, such as taking height and yield measurements, measuring protein and moisture levels in samples, and harvesting crop during the summer. During the summer of 2010, the program said its goodbyes to long-time project leader Jim Peterson, who will be pursuing further development of his career in Colorado. - Erika Altenhofen Top left: Display at the World Expo, in Tulare California.

Biomedical research is a primary focus at OSU and expands the scope of veterinary education that students will receive before graduation. This outstanding college trains students in the areas of animal health and the diseases and risks that certain animals carry and have. The importance in core training will allow students to vary in their specialized subjects. The college also supports clinical training of interns and residents. The College of Veterinary medicince has a full staff of fourteen professors within the college, twelve assistant professors, seven clinical faculty members, four research scientists, four instructors, five post doctoral fellows, and seventeen house officers residents. It was another groundbreaking year for the college, who made the news when a five-person team of OSU marine mammal vets rescued a sea lion tangled in a net at Oregon’s Sea Lion Caves in March 2010. They failed an attempt to tranquilize the animal with a shot attached to a pole, so they used a special knife instead to cut the animal free. OSU also made headlines after the purchase of a special treadmill for horses and other large animals. It allows scientists to conduct research on large animals while monitoring heart rate, blood flow, respiration, and other responses to the exercise. Among the research conducted are studies on horses' responses to drugs, diets, and treatments. - Jessica Maynard 156 ciu emcj Above, left: Allison Miller and Anna Fumasi staff the Cat Photo Contest booth at the college's annual Pet Day and Open House.

Since the founding of the University Honors College in 1995 by the Oregon State Board of Education, the program has given degrees to hundreds of students. Those accepted into the college strive for an Honors Baccalaureate Degree in the academic major of their choice. The acceptance process is very competitive and the responsibility of these students is high. However, the college is accepting more students every year and they are making more academic contributions to OSU than ever before. An honors degree includes many steps and processes. Arguably, most important of these stepping-stones is the completion of a thesis. Even within this thesis there are many steps one must take in order to produce a piece of work that accurately reflects ones skills. Only students possessing the stamina and excellent work ethic, pushing through the grueling, academic tests and work, can earn an Honors Degree. - Natasha Mackey t Top: UHC on a ski trip to Mount Hood.

Right: The Marching band welcomes • alumni back to campus during the annual |7Q Homecoming Parade. fa V This year the OSU Marching Band grew in numbers beyond any ever experienced. With so many new band members there weren't enough full uniforms to go around, and the drum line had to get their own special shirts made, it was certainly a year of growth and new beginnings for our Oregon State Marching Band, but they were still able to carry on long-held traditions, make some great music and have a little fun. For band members, the school year begins a bit early. Members of the drum line showed up two weeks before classes started, with the rest of the band following a few days later. During these days of band camp, the fundamental skills that help the band work and march together are developed. Friendships are created as the members get to know one another, and a lot of time is spent rehearsing music, learning OSU's marching technique and preparing for the first football game. The band performs a variety of music every year, from the traditional pep songs played during timeouts and breaks, to segments of Broadway musicals on the field at half time. Some of this year's agenda included a cartoon themed show, with music and formations from the Simpsons, Family Guy and South Park, and a Halloween show featuring Michael Jackson’s Thriller,’’ complete with the 200+ band members showing off their 'Thriller” dance moves. One memorable tradition that has continued over the years takes place during Dad's Weekend. On this weekend fathers of band members are able to perform alongside the Marching Band during the halftime show. This year, the dads got to use their karate kicks as they performed to Kung Fu Fighting.” Dads were not the only visitors at this game, however, and the University of Washington Marching Band came down and performed their halftime show as well. Every year, everyone loves to watch and listen to the Oregon State Marching Band, and this year was no exception. Football game attendees of all ages are able to experience the Marching Band in its prime. Full of spirit, not afraid to show us their moves, and constantly creating an environment full of energy and lively music, the Oregon State University Marching Band once again helped create a year to remember. - Katrina Mettee Top: Bandmembers put on a show on the home field.

For those of you who don't already know. Color Guard is a form of performance dance that uses props such as flags, batons, or rifles to emphasize dramatic parts in music or in an accompanying show. The Oregon State University Color Guard is a part of the Marching Band, where they are able to add a little fun and flare at football games as they rehearse, perform and travel alongside the rest of the band. Much like the Marching Band, the OSU Color Guard has grown immensely in recent years, doubling in size! It is easy to see their dedication and practice paying off while watching halftime performances at football games. Not only does the Color Guard enhance and add drama and emotion to these performances, but participating in Color Guard provides an opportunity for members to meet others, make many new friends, and have a ton of fun with an experience most people aren’t able to have. There are classes offered to all OSU students through the Music Department that teach and aid in practicing various Color Guard techniques. During winter term, the Color Guard ensemble continues practicing and competes and performs in various competitions throughout the Pacific Northwest. Oregon State fans and students should be very thankful to the Color Guard for their contribution in creating an enjoyable and entertaining atmosphere at athletic events at Oregon State. - Katrina Mettee photo Jj Kelly Coronado Color guard has several different well-coordinated uniforms worn throughout the football season. photo by Xathan Raymond The band at Oregon State is mostly known for their performances at football games during the fall, however our band continues to work throughout both Winter and Spring term.

Anyone interested in playing some great music and cheering on the Oregon State basketball teams is always encouraged to give Pep Band a try. It will most certainly be a fun experience that won't be forgotten! - Katrina Mettee 1 6 The music department at OSU is host to a number of instrumental ensembles that grace the campus. The groups range from wind ensemble, to trumpet choir, to orchestra -- each with a unique sound and purpose. Music ensembles are a hybrid organization -part class, part extra-curricular activity. After an audition and placement recommendation, students register with a course number and receive a grade and credit. Rehearsals are during regular class time but public performances occur outside of class. The 43-member OSU Wind Ensemble and the 60-member Corvallis-OSU Symphony Orchestra are the premier instrumental ensembles on campus. The wind ensemble features the most outstanding student brass, woodwind and percussion players. The orchestra, now in it's 104th year, is a mixed ensemble of students, professionals, and talented lay musicians from the community. Both ensembles perform regularly at the LaSells Stewart Center. - Erin Sneller r 1 • Above: Trombone Choir Left: The Civil War team, competing against U of O’s ensemble in a game of football.

Each year, the Vagina Monologues grace audiences at the La Sells Alumni Center, providing, laughs, gasps, and awes. The Vagina Monologues are the culminating event of the V-Day campaign. V-Day is a global movement to stop violence against women and girls. OSU recognizes it as V-Week, and this year’s celebrations consisted of events such as Vagigami (origami vaginas), workshops and a screening of V-Day’s documentary Until The Violence Stops. According to vday.org, the ‘V’ in V-Day stands for Victory, Valentine and Vagina. The author of the The Vagina Monologues is Eve Ensler, who is also a performer and activist. Her experience performing the play inspired her to create V-Day. The Vagina Monologues has been translated into 45 languages and performed in over 130 countries. The Monologues celebrates female sexuality and strength. The show consists of a group of women on stage who act out experiences based off of interviews, conduced by Ensler, of over 200 women from all across the world. There are about 40 cast members and 15 people on the planning committee, which begins the process six months before the show in February. Besides bringing awareness to violence against women, The Vagina Monologues donates funds to the Center Against Rape and Domestic Violence, which is located in Corvallis. This year’s spotlight campaign is Women and Children Experiencing Violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Each year a new spotlight organization is selected and receives 10 percent of the profits, and the Center Against Rape and Domestic Violence receives 90 percent. There are different levels of involvement possible to those interested in participating in the show. Cast members include students, staff and faculty. The event is also open to community members who would like to contribute. During this year's performance, there were 17 monologues in the show, including the performance of a new monologue entitled A teenage girl's guide to surviving sex slavery.

Students walking by Benton Hall are often audience to a free concert. The choral music program is one part of the department and offers a singing outlet for anyone who wishes to aud-tion, from the most experienced singers to beginners who want to start taking voice lessons. The OSU Chamber Choir is the premier audition vocal ensemble on campus. It hosts a multitude of events throughout the year, including community concerts, choral festivals, high school visits, regional tours, and in many years, international tours. At OSU, there is a choral opportunity for any level of singer, with ensembles ranging from the OSU Chamber Choir, to men's and women's choirs, to the University Chorale. - Natasha Mackey Top: University Chorale performs in the MU Lounge during Music a la Carte’s 40th season.

During this night of carefully choreographed performances, Greek houses from around campus have the opportunity to shine under the bright lights while competing against other houses for the grand prize of the highly coveted trophy. All houses who want to perform must go through a bid process a year before the performance. Once chosen, the houses begin practicing in January for the performance in May. Choreography is carefully planned out for auditions. For the first audit} teams must sing songs chosen for their performance. Then at the second audition, they must sing two songs and perform the song and dance for one of the songs. For the third audition, they must do all their choreography for all three songs. Judges are members of the OSU community.

The Barometer is an entitiy of Oregon State's Student Media and is run solely by current students (with the help of faculty advisors, of course). The paper's goal is cohesive and ideally self-sustaining news entity. The Daily Barometer has been voted one of the best newspapers in the country.

Students who are involved are looking to get hands on experience, or just like the atmosphere and enjoy writing to earn a paycheck.

On 88.7 you can listen to new artists and genres, broadening your musical interests and getting to know local bands. You can also call in and heckle the on-air speakers between classes. FM staff members get to see what it is like to operate a radio station from up-close. Their staff includes on-air DJ's, talk hosts, music experts, and people who know everything there is to know about radio. Managers are seemingly always present at the station to monitor the airwaves, create schedules, and help DJ's learn new skills to improve the quality of their shows. The other side of the KBVR program is the TV station on channel 26, which broadcasts to Philomath and Corvallis. Being a part of the Televi- sion station gives students the chance to get hands-on experience with the many outputs of television. Responsibilities include: Camera operation, photography, on-camera reporting, journalism, sound operation, technical operation, and many more. A new show brought more attention to the station during the '10 school year. Greek Pads featured tours of Greek houses around campus, and many students enjoyed seeing people they know showing off the places they called home. f your major is journalism or music the KBVR family is probably the perfect fit. However, they welcome any major, and encourage diversity, creating a professional but informal atmosphere. -Natasha Mackey I (s yajtifgtiiiHM 196 7 w rris n arcs ana Literary magazine Above: Contributor Talia Filipek reads her piece “Chaos Grenade.” Right: Contributor James Mohl. Despite Oregon State's reputation for being an agricultural and engineering-based university, the art scene is alive and well. Prism, part of Student Media, is a magazine that is published Fall, Winter, and Spring terms. Each term, students from any discipline can submit their work. Science majors can submit 'cooked' poems. Foreign Language majors can submit photographs. Business majors can submit paintings or drawings. Agricultural Engineers can submit sculptures or short stories. No matter what corner of campus you come from, Prism will consider your art. The most common form of submissions are those listed above, including others such as lithographs, relief sculptures, and pictures of art installments. New art or literary entries are submitted each term. Each person submitting to Prism is allowed up to five entries for each medium, every term. This allows students a fair chance at getting their artwork displayed in the magazine. Once the students submit their work, the Prism editorial staff chooses pieces to be placed within the magazine. So, whether or not your life goal is to get your work published, or just want a shot at getting that doodlefromcIasspublished.Prism Magazine is a great starting point. - Natasha Mackey all photos courtesy of Prism Above, top: Literature staff (clockwise from left): Alex McElroy, Michael Stone-berg, Hannah Dahl, Sara Gardner, Rose Hansen, and Bianca Smith.

Our technology for developing the book has upgraded from hand-copying and pasting to using large, flat-screen Macs and the newest yearbook software. Our style, however, reflects an earlier time. The Beaver Yearbook is the oldest Student Media publication at OSU, dating back to the late 1800's. It used to be known as the Hayseed, and then the Orange before the university's athletic department deemed us the Beavers in 1910. Our mission is to record events around campus and compile them into a solid-bound book, which will be kept as a historical document and as a source to keep memories for years to come. Everyone on the yearbook staff does a little bit of everything. There are members who gravitate towards specific duties, but at the end of the day, every person creates some aspect of layout design, writes a story, interviews for a caption, or takes pictures. The amount of work that goes into producing the book is immense and time-consuming. Every team member is a A tUsit, LOJOLC urccr volunteer, gaining either practicum credit hours or just experience and a sense of being involved. We dedicate our time between classes and on weekends to get the job done. From theme and concept brainstorming in the fall to placing that last portait in July, making a yearbook is a unique and distinguished experience on the Oregon State campus.

Their mission is to promote academic excellence, encourage the intellectual, social, cultural, and physical development of the student body, and enable the student body to assert its varied interests as citizens and members of the academic community through democratic representation. ASOSU is complete with an executive, judicial, and legislative branch, and the president and vice president of the organization are elected by the students each year. Aside from the three traditional branches, ASOSU hires students for task forces, budget mediaton and approval, and office clerical work. The task forces are teams that represent and deal with issues of accessibility and supporting veterans and non-traditional and queer students on campus. ASOSU also provides services to the students such as childcare, student health insurance, the advocacy office, and Saferide, a service to provide a safe ride home to students on and around campus late at night. Officers elected in 2009 to serve during the 2010 school year were President Chris VanDrimmelen and Vice President Kevin Schock.

To kick off the year, the Campus Movie Fest was a chance for students to make their own movies and compete for the title of best movie. Students had one week and were given camcorders and apple laptops to make their movies. This is the largest student international film festival in the Northwest. The International Grande Finale is held in Las Vegas, NV. In May, Snow in the Quad made its 5th annual appearance this year with men and women competing against each other for a chance to compete in the Final event in Portland’s Pioneer Square. The start of June this year was a chance for bands to compete in the Battle of the Bands. This year's line-up included local bands EvLove, Of Saints and Shadows, Hallways of Always, Stateside, The Angries, The Likeness, Target for Tomorrow, Future Sunz, Motae, and Lost Tortoise. As tradition dictates, the winner of the Battle is to play as the opening act for the Flat Tail Music Festival held the following evening in the Quad.

The students in the ROTC program work very hard, from early morning PT (Physical Training) runs, to learning how to lead, and developing skills that will help them as officers in the U.S. Military. Not only do the students train at Oregon State, but also they go to other parts of the country for field training and to get combat ready for after they graduate. In 2010 the Air Force ROTC held their annual Veterans Day Ceremony in the MU quad. The speaker was Sergeant Donald G. Malarkey, Easy Company, 101st Airborne Division. The traditional 21-gun salute was performed to honor the fallen soldiers from OSU, followed by a reading of the names of those who were missing in action or taken as prisoner of war. In the spring the Navy ROTC hosted the annual ROTC Joint Service Review. This event is for the midshipmen and cadets of the ROTC to show what they have learned so far during year. The guest was Rear Admiral James Symonds. During the ceremony, Symonds presented 11 cadets with awards for outstanding academic performance, display of leadership skills and physical aptitude.

Each year, the BCC sponsors the week long Martin Luther King, ]r. event. The week is filled with activities, marches, discussions, presentations, and movies, all commemorating the effors of the late Martin Luther King, Jr., and to proliferate his attitudes towards equality. Aside from the MLK, Jr. events, the BCC held barbecues, picnics, and yard sales, all meant to gather people together and to raise money for the center and their efforts in the community. The BCC also put on Juneteenth Week, an event in early June meant to honor the African-American Emancipation Day known as Juneteenth, the day when the last slaves were set free in Galveston, Texas in 1865. The annual event started with Black Hair Care Day, and continued all week with events like gospel concerts, yard festivals, and a comedy show at the end of the week. The event ended with the eighth annual Divine Nine Step Show, whose name represents the nine historically black Fraternities that make up the National Panhellenic Council (it consists of five fraternities and four sororities).

Started in 1969, OSU's Native American Longhouse is located at the heart of campus, on 26th Street between Dixon Rec Center and the MU. Traditionally, a longhouse may have been used as lodging for families. Today, longhouses such as the one on campus are used as social gathering places, places for prayer, and a place to sing traditional song. The house is more than just a social organization, however. They encourage intra- and intercultural education by hosting events such as the Native American Heritage Month in November. This month is dedicated to educating the public on Native Americans' culture, their health problems such as diabetes, and the importance of being proud of one's heritage. In 2010, there were plans circulating in the longhouse for a new building. The plan is to build an improved structure in the parking lot behind Moreland Hall. Sticking to tradition, the new longhouse will be constructed using cedar planks and will hopefully be finished in the 2011-2012 school year. - Natasha Mackey 214 On fanixAtukts fji - HU 'I Tt lt photo by Kelly Coronado photo by Nathan Raymond photo by Kelly Coronado photo by Kelly Coronado � 5 I i'mttis ccnccr The Women’s Center can be a relaxing and inviting place to hang out, and is a place of work for a few select women on campus.

These activities range from Dim Sum dinners to Valentine's Day get-togethers. Calling All Communities and Chopsticks 101 are meant to welcome members of the community and provide a taste of what the APCC is all about.

Occasionally there is a discussion about a passage from the Bible. There are also community groups, which are groups of 5-20 students, which meet at least once a week to discuss their relationship with God and study the Bible together. These community groups Traditionally, the group schedules one retreat per term, during which the students spend a weekend together at another location, worshipping, studying the Bible, discussing and, of course, getting to know eachother better.

In 1916, the Ahneek, or Beaver club, petitioned that the National ATft fraternity and the Alpha Sigma chapter of ATO was recharted at Oregon Agricultural College. After residing in several buildings for short periods of time, the brick building ATfl resides in today was built in 1924. Our chapter is dedicated to Harry Hamilton, a member of the founding class of ATO's at Oregon State. After his death, his mother, Nora Hamilton, donated $5,000 for the construction � - -T ofthe current house. In 1938, Nora Hamilton passed away, leaving an additional $5,000 donation to help ATO juniors and Seniors pay for educational loans. One hundred and twenty-eight years later, the fraternity is still thriving and helping out the local Corvallis community. Alpha Tau Omega is very involved with both Greek and non-Greek community service. In addition, ATfl holds two philanthropic events of their own: a dodgeball tournament hosted at Dixon Recreation Center, and Cuts for a Cure. The ATD Dodgeball Tournament is co hosted by the OSU Dodgeball Club and the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. This year was the second time the Dodgeball Tournament was held. Not only has the event more than doubled in size, but it has expanded from just a men's division to divisions for men, women and coed teams. Cuts for a Cure is a one day event in which members of the house allow sororities to bid on their hair. Once a member's hair has been won by the sorority, the women can cut, dye, spray, or gel anything they want into it and the hairdo must be worn the way it was created for a week. Profits from both events go toward the American Cancer Society, n addition to I I , v T I 1 philanthropies, brotherhood is very important to ATH. The chapter held initiation ceremonies for new members g %K during the ■ . ■ Winter and Spring terms. The ATI! fraternity also participated in many intramural sports including basketball, flag football, bowling, soccer, Frisbee, and softball. ATII went to playoffs in 4 of the sports' brackets. In addition to brotherhood events, ATD holds a Mom's and Dad's weekend annually. Moms and Dads are treated to shirts, dinner, a breakfast, and an auction during the weekend. Founded On January 1, 1848 lit Miami sity in Oxford, Ohio, Phi Delta Theta has become a premier international fraternity. With 160 active chapters in the United States and Canada, Phi Delt's has seen more than 230,000 men initiated into the brotherhood. Phi Delta Theta members have occupied every major public office including the presidency and vice presidency of the United States, Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, U.S. Senators and Congressmen, State Governors and Senators in the Canadian House of Commons. Phi Delta Theta also holds the unique distinction of having Brother, Neil Armstrong, as the first man on the moon. Through all the ups and downs, the alumni support has kept Phi Delts going, embracing one of the Phi Delt sayings, To transmit the fraternity to those who may follow after, not only not less, but greater than it was transmitted to me . Phi Delta Theta, Oregon Beta, starts its history at Oregon State University in 1906 under name of the local fraternity Kappa Sigma Nu. It wasn't until 1918 that the Phi Delt name came to Oregon State. Since then the chapter has owned 6 houses including the current house on 13th that was built in 1928. During these 82 years, the house has seen the likes of continued next page Heisman winner Terry Baker, Oregon Governor Douglas McKay and football coach Rich Brooks. These three men are only part of the 1700 plus men that have been initiated at the Oregon Beta chapter during the chapter's 92 year history on campus. In 2000, Phi Delta Theta made the bold move to eliminate alcohol from all chapter facilities. Since then, the fraternity has seen its largest growth in membership. During the 2009-2010 school year. Phi Delts was active in all aspects of student life at Oregon State. Members have held positions at ASOSU, Safe Ride and have volunteered with the Corvallis Fire Department. This year, we participated in many philanthropies such as Delta Gamma's Anchor Splash, Alpha Gamma Delta's Deeds for Diabetes and Sigma Kappa's Mock Rock. We also have an annual Christmas party with the boys and girls club of Corvallis. Collectively as a house, the members completed over 1000 hours of community service and donated thousands of dollars for philanthropic events. Through all of this hard work and dedication the men have made the Oregon Beta Chapter of Phi Delta Theta one the top fraternities on campus, and received the most improved chapter on campus award. To this day the members stand behind the 3 cardinal principles of friendship, sound learning and moral rectitude while doing what ought to be done and believing that one man is no man. all photos courtesy of Phi Delta The tea Chi Omega is a women's sorority and. nationwide, is the largest memberof the National PanhellenicConference.ChiOmegaboasts 171 active collegiate chapters and over 230 alumnae chapters.|2] The fraternity's headquarters is located in Memphis. Tennessee. Oregon State's Chi O's focused on the Make a Wish Foundation and played an active role in social events on campus throughout the year. Meghan Coffey and Leah Landstrom lead the philanthropy committee which, during Winter and Spring terms, lead the house in fundraisers to benefit their charity. During Winter term, the women held a pasta feed at their house. The event was a success The house was also supportive of the Panhellemc Council's effort to help people affected by the disastrous earthquake in Haiti by attending the Bekker concert and helping to sell coffee in the quad.

CASA stands for Court Appointed Special Advocates. We raise money to help children by providing them with a voice in court in hopes of a brighter future. Specifically for the local Benton County CASA office, their mission is to recruit, train and professionally support court appointed community Volunteers to advocate for each abused and neglected child in Benton County . Kappa Alpha Theta participates in year-round events that CASA puts on to lend a helping hand. Our biggest contribution to CASA is the annual philanthropy that is held in the spring. This year for IronBrawl we hosted our Mr.CASAnova male beauty pagent, and the title event- the IronBrawl flag football tournament. Sigma Chi won our philanthropy this year. Among the memorable events for the Thetas was Sigma Chi’s Derby Days Philanthropy, which they won for the fifth year in a row! At this event, the house was able to raise $4000 for Do-ernbecher Children's Hospital in Portland. They participated in various activities throughout the week-long event, such as house tagging, an auction, dash for the derby, and their dance competition. Theta puts a lot of hard work and dedication into raising money for Sigma Chi’s philanthropy each year!

Angela Summers U CLO U 9 ocaucr OO Perhaps one of the most innovative clubs or teams to walk Oregon State's campus this decade was the Formula SAE team. A group of Inventive Beavers generated a team of fellow engineering students who simply enjoyed the process of building a formula SAE racing car. However, team meetings weren't just a fun place to hang out. SAE became a serious I focus in the lives of the students involved, I and by 2009, the team had put together I a force to be reckoned with around the I world! I The SAE team at OSU is part of Global I Formula Racing, an international _ collaboration between the former BA ■ Racing Team from the Duale Hochschule fl Baden-Wiirttemberg-Ravensburg • (DHBW-R), Germany, and the Beaver Racing Team from OSU. These teams had competed against eachother several I times before becoming a collaboration in 2009. The convergence is the first of I its kind around the globe, and the two M universities share innovations and ideas mgM to create two versions based on the same m design so that each location can build bm j their own car. I In May of 2010, the team competed in I the FSAE Michigan 2010 competition, 9% . where they took 1st place! They beat out 122 teams from mound the world, flj many of whom had longer-standing and more highly-sponsored programs. The ■ | team later placed 9th at Formula SAE California.

They may think of the name of the football stadium at Oregon State University, a favorite picnic item, or the financial backer of Beaver athletics. But, to those of us who spent a significant amount of our lives in Corvallis working towards our own degree, the name A1 Reser represents a lot more. He is a figure of respect for every Oregon Stater, someone we someday hope to equal both in personal success and in generosity. In his senior year at Oregon State, A1 developed his first chip dip recipe, substituting sour cream for cream cheese. With the help of the food science department, his recipe helped advance the efforts of his family’s food business, which his parents, Earl and Mildred, started in their Cornelius, Oregon farmhouse. It was also at Oregon State where Al met his wife Pat and left a legacy of generosity and Beaver Spirit. Al graduated from Oregon State University in 1960 with a degree in business administration. At 25, he became the CEO of Reser’s Fine Foods. Since then, the company has grown internationally, collecting around $800 million in sales globally. Al's contributions to his Alma Mater have transformed the university. The football stadium was named after him and buildings were constructed, one after another, based on his financial donations. He also supported organizations in the Portland metro area, from the Portland Rose Festival Foundation to Oregon's Special Olympics. A I also contributed to Oregon State's football program, helping to expand the stadium and to recruit better athletes so that the Beavs would have a better chance against their Pac-10 rivals. The Linus Pauling Center, a science center completed in 2011, was also made possible by Al's generosity. Oregon State presented Al with the E.B. Lemon Distinguished Alumni Award just days before he died. On Monday, April 12, 2010, Al Reser passed away. He is remembered as one of the most generous and longstanding supporters of Oregon State University. Thanks to Al and his family, Beaver supporters everywhere have another fellow Beaver to be proud of. - Erika Altenhofen Robert A.
