Parking services ramps up ticketing

Woman cited for public indecency for allegedly recording pornography in Valley Library

Oregon State Police cited a former Oregon State University student for public indecency after she allegedly shot a pornographic video in the Valley Library.

Before the video was taken down from PornHub.com, it circulated on social media outlets such as Facebook.

“This is a video we understand was made several months ago,” said Steve Clark, vice president for university relations and marketing.

After learning about the alleged incident, the university made a report with OSP, according to Clark. To Clark’s knowledge, there has been no discussion of excluding the woman from OSU property.

An OSP trooper cited and released the woman Jan. 27 at approximately 2:30 p.m., according to police logs.

A parked car receives a ticket Wednesday afternoon. Parking Services is ramping up ticketing this term following last term’s grace period.

Cody Roos, a third-year student in accounting and finance, always parks on campus after 5 p.m., never worrying about getting a ticket. Yet, even when he parked in a familiar spot by Fairbanks Hall without a “no parking” sign at 7 p.m., Roos returned an hour later to find a bright orange envelope sitting on his windshield.

“I have parked in the spot before and never had any issues,” Roos said. “I won’t be parking in that spot again, but I filed an appeal because I feel that they should have given a warning rather than a $30 ticket. I haven’t heard anything back from TAPS about accepting my appeal.”

Fall term, Oregon State University implemented a new zonal parking system in which commuters can purchase permits of varying costs that correspond to specific lots on campus. With the implementation of zonal parking and the continued use of short-term lots and metered spaces, commuters continue to have trouble finding their feet on campus.

From violas to trombones: Symphony features OSU students ASOSU House Corvallis-OSU Symphony players share talks diversity, experiences of life as student musicians internal changes n

THE DAILY BAROMETER

Like thousands of other students starting at Oregon State University this year, chemical engineering major Ben Rosene is a freshman easing the into uncertainties of college life.

For the past few weeks, on top of keeping up with his classes, he’s been to multiple rehearsals for a musical concert aided by three different choirs. It’s a demanding job on its own, and even harder as a busy student.

Rosene is gearing up for Jan. 29’s scheduled production, “Music and Hope,” one of the professionallevel compilations the Corvallis-OSU Symphony will perform this year.

During the symphony’s warmup, blaring noises from dozens of instruments warming can make it difficult to hear neighboring musicians.

Rehearsals can last several hours, and for Rosene, much of it involves sitting and waiting while other instruments play through their sections.

He spends most of it laughing and talking with friends in his section near the back of the stage.

According to Rosene, the moment a concert starts makes all the time spent “mastering the technicalities” worthwhile.

“It’s a huge adrenaline rush,” he said. “That’s really what draws me to keep playing music. I’m generally a pretty introverted person, so being able to sit in front of 1,000 people and play is … it’s a little bit scary, but I’m so well prepared, I don’t really have to worry about that.”

Rosene was introduced to music at a young age, excelling in his middle school band program and entering the Portland Youth Philharmonic his sophomore year of high school. The philharmonic is where he developed his fondness for symphonic concerts.

From there, he was eventually introduced to OSU’s

symphony by a former instructor.

As an orchestral trombone player, he sets aside at least an hour each day to practice outside of rehearsals.

“A lot of it is just listening to the music,” he said. “I’ll go through the piece one or two times on Spotify, just so I can know what all the entrances are. (I need) to know exactly what it sounds like two measures before I come in. The fundamentals come down to getting your tone good, your pitch more solid, working out intervals and having a more flexible range.”

Microbiology junior Jacqueline Gillon said “the majority of players” practice in their spare time to branch out and develop their own material.

“That’s how we actually become better players — it’s by inventing our own stuff,” Gillon said. “There’s the symphony, but then we also have other ensembles.

Some students get together and play quartets, which is just a way to learn new styles. A lot of time students have a concerto, which is a solo for their specific See SYMPHONY | page 4

The Associated Students of Oregon State University House of Representatives met Wednesday night to discuss various fiscal and structural changes they are hoping to enact between this year and next.

They discussed the finalization of the budget put together by the Student and Incidental Fees Committee. There were two presentations regarding ASOSU affiliates: their government affairs task force and SafeRide.

Mackenzie Zathan, external coordinator of SafeRide, gave a presentation on the “revamping” of SafeRide. She discussed funding for the program, and voiced concerns that lack thereof is “preventing program growth” for all students that use the service.

Rachel Grisham, President Pro Tempore of the Senate, talked briefly about recruiting students to protest at the Capitol for a student tuition freeze.

Bills 06.04 through 06.10 were read.

The bills would create constituency seats for the Pride Center, Women’s Center, Black Culture Center, Etihad Cultural Center, Centro Cultural Cesar Chavez, Native American Longhouse and Asian and Pacific Cultural Center. The seats would be added to the existing 25.

Student Sustainability Initiative holds informational session on involvement

Sunday, January 25

Public urination A Corvallis police officer cited a man for human waste early Sunday morning. The man was allegedly urinating on a truck in the parking lot across from the Peacock Bar and Grill in downtown Corvallis.

Caught in the act An officer from the Oregon State University Department of Public Safety allegedly became involved in a pursuit with a bicyclist near Southwest Washington Way and Southwest 17th Street. According to DPS logs, the officer had tried to stop the cyclist for a number of traffic violations, but the cyclist allegedly failed to stop when the officer turned on the emergency lights on his patrol car. The officer logged that the cyclist eventually ditched the bike at the Halsell Hall parking lot, continuing to run southbound on foot before being caught by Oregon State Police troopers. The man allegedly told officers “he ran because the bike he was riding wasn’t his bike.” The responding OSP officer cited the man for minor-in-possession via consumption, and officers are investigating the alleged theft of the bicycle.

Saturday, January 24

Hit-and-run Campus OSP responded to reports of a hit-and-run incident near Southwest 15th Street and Southwest A Street.

According to OSP logs, the complainant said it appeared as though someone had damaged his vehicle. Someone who had witnessed the incident left a note on the victim’s windshield leaving some information about the alleged suspect. Officers were able to contact the witness and obtain information about the suspect’s vehicle.

Chaos at the Peacock Just after midnight on Saturday morning, a Corvallis Police Department officer arrived at Peacock Bar and Grill to deal with a man being detained by bar security. The man had allegedly gotten into an argument with another man inside the bar and had to be escorted out by bar staff. The man was allegedly “flailing his arms” as security escorted him out of the premises, so bar staff alleged that they had to detain him on the ground. The attending officer did not cite the man, but the bar staff requested that the man be formally banned from the premises.

Need to Know THE DAILY BAROMETER

Things to know about security deposits: Security deposits are commonplace when renting a residence through a private party or property management agency. In order to be considered legal under OR 90.300, any required security deposit must be described in the agreed upon rental agreement. According to OregonLaws.org, addendums or additions to a security deposit – for instance, in regards to the inclusion of pets on the rental agreement — are legal, but once a lease is enacted, “a landlord may not change the rental agreement to require the tenant to pay a new or increased security deposit during the first year.” Under the same law, service or therapy animals are an exception and are not subject to any form of security deposit. A landlord can retain “from the security deposit only the amount reasonably necessary” to compensate for any unpaid rent or to pay for any repairs of damages caused during the tenants’ residence in the home.

PORTLAND TRIBUNE

PORTLAND — Gov. John Kitzhaber says he’s prepared to release a statement about what he wants the Oregon Liquor Control Commission and lawmakers to consider as they implement recreational use of marijuana in Oregon.

Kitzhaber, at a meeting Tuesday sponsored by The Associated Press, said he would present a “series of principles” probably later this week. He says more specific recommendations from him are likely to emerge later as the OLCC and lawmakers work through the process.

He says staff will be actively involved.

Although Kitzhaber plans a letter for OLCC, he acknowledges that lawmakers will have to be involved in some of the ideas he wants studied.

The five members of OLCC will begin a statewide tour soon to shape its rulemaking process, and lawmakers begin their 160day session on Feb. 2.

Legalization of recreational use will start July 1, although OLCC licensing of retail sales is expected in another year or so, after it starts accepting applications Jan. 4, 2016. A special House-Senate committee also

news@dailybarometer.com

will focus on legalization, which voters approved as Measure 91 on Nov. 4.

Kitzhaber says he favors a merger of systems for medical marijuana, which voters approved in 1998, and recreational marijuana.

Measure 91 made no changes in the 1998 law allowing marijuana for medical uses, but some lawmakers have said they want to consider changes.

“I think you need to put them together,” Kitzhaber says. “It’s easier to ask questions when you do not have two separate systems operating.”

Kitzhaber, who was in his second term as governor back then, says lawmakers have since expanded the list of conditions that qualify for medical marijuana use. Among the conditions in the initial law were glaucoma and nausea associated with chemotherapy.

“It’s strayed quite a bit,” says Kitzhaber, formerly an emergency-room physician.

Of the almost 70,000 patients registered with the Oregon Medical Marijuana Program as of Jan. 1, more than 64,000 use it for severe pain; 9,379 for nausea, 3,633 for cancer and 1,074 for glaucoma. There are other qualifying conditions under the

law, and patients can indicate multiple reasons for medical use.

Kitzhaber supported the 1998 ballot measure, but opposed Measure 91. Although he called legalization “inevitable,” Kitzhaber said during the campaign that Oregon should await lessons from Washington and Colorado, where voters approved legalization measures in 2012.

Among the questions Kitzhaber will raise is the number of plants the law allows someone to grow for personal use — four — weighed against the eight ounces under the law that someone can possess at home. (Public possession is limited to one ounce.)

“Allowing homegrown simply seems to be out of sync with a regulated market,” he says.

Kitzhaber also wants OLCC and lawmakers to show how a regulated market will reduce the black market for recreational marijuana, and what can be done to devise a test — comparable to a breath test for alcohol — for determining whether a driver is under the influence of marijuana.

Supporters have said the state tax set by Measure 91 should be low enough to encourage conversions from the black market, and that the measure requires officials to set under-the-influence testing requirements.

The Student Sustainability Initiative is taking over Owen Hall Thursday night with their “Take Initiative, Join Initiative” event.

The event will seek to inform students about ways to get involved with the SSI. Program coordinators will be present to answer questions and explain the career paths students interested in sustainability can follow. Coordinators represent a variety of different subsets of sustainability, including water, food, transportation, landscape and energy.

“The best part of working here is people. There is a strong urge and sense of wanting to do something greater than making money; there is a sense of community,” said Emily Boyer, the SSI media coor-

dinator and a student in speech communication.

Boyer hopes many students will come to Thursday’s event, as it is a good chance for others to get to know the culture of sustainability and engender more conscientious citizens.

Boyer said students can get involved in a multitude of ways, including volunteer work and internship opportunities, either of which can lead to paid positions. SSI is currently looking for more volunteers and interns available to start in the spring.

The SSI hopes to help students empower themselves and lead more sustainable lives, and not just in regards to the environment. The SSI works with social and economic sustainability as well, featuring volunteers and staff from all different majors.

The “Take Initiative, Join Initiative” event is in Owen Hall room 103 at 6 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 29; pizza will be provided.

Its product is intangible: knowledge and human connections, not widgets. “This current structure was built to absolutely minimize social capital,� Marshall says, noting the multiple doors that often block off staff and faculty offices and the generally dark, closed-in feeling of the 1970s building at Southwest Sixth Avenue and Harrison Street. “The new structure really will open up the building in so many important ways.�

Business school classes currently are held throughout the campus, with a student body that is 70 percent transfers and often commuting in from across the region. There is only one student study space, and most of the time when students meet one another, faculty or even prospective employers, they do so at area restaurants and cafes. “They need more places to meet, to be comfortable,� Gallagher says.

PSU contracted with SRG, which designed the University of Oregon’s Lillis Business Complex, and Behnisch Architekten, based in Stuttgart, Germany, for the redesign.

When finished in 2017, the new and renovated spaces will nearly triple the school’s floor space to 135,000 square feet, along with a much more open format, state-of-the-art offices, project spaces and common areas.

The new entrance along Montgomery Street will take its cue from the Urban Center Plaza, the busiest transportation hub in Oregon that will be even busier once the MAX Orange Line opens next fall.

The overall effect will be one that the school’s administrators hope will bring more people through their doors.

Springfield father tried to bail out son who hanged himself

By Chelsea Gorrow THE REGISTER-GUARD

EUGENE — A grieving father says he made multiple attempts to bail his son out of the Springfield Municipal Jail before his son hanged himself with a bedsheet on Martin Luther King Jr. Day in his one-person cell.

Before he died, police said, 23-year-old Adam Six used the intercom to ask the jail staff if his bail had been posted.

It had not.

But the holiday, 59-year-old Robert Six claims, prevented him from bailing out his son. “If they had told them that his father was coming, he would have waited. I know he would have waited,� Robert Six said tearfully. “I know my son.�

Springfield police, however, said jail officials did notify Adam Six of his father’s intentions to return and post bail. And they say Robert Six could have posted bail on the holiday, if he had had the full bail amount on hand to post.

Robert Six said he was notified Jan. 17, a Saturday, that his son had been arrested two nights previously on a theft charge. Adam Six allegedly shoplifted laundry detergent, underwear and sponges from a Fred Meyer store, valued at $50.47, Springfield police Capt. Rick Lewis said.

Robert Six said he went to the bank that day and withdrew $200, as he was under the impression that that was the correct amount needed to post bail. Robert Six, currently living in a nursing home as he recovers from pneumonia and a severe staph infection, said he had to be back at the nursing home by 6 p.m., so he didn’t go to the jail until Jan. 18, a Sunday. When he arrived, he learned that he was $100 short: The bail had actually been set at $300.

“I offered the money, I asked them to please take the $200, and I would come back with the rest,� Robert Six said. “I wanted (my son) to feel secure knowing that at least a partial bail had been posted. But (jail staff) said they could only take the full amount, they couldn’t take a partial amount. “So I told them to tell my son that I would be back,� Six added. “I forgot Monday was a holiday.

If he had known that, if he had known that I tried and would come back, he would have waited. Our bond was our word.�

But on Monday, Robert Six was unable to withdraw the additional $100 because, he said, banks were closed for the holiday and he did not have access to the money via an automatic teller machine.

Robert Six says he then asked jail staff to tell his son he would return.

Later that day, he says, the jail staff called to tell him his son had died.

But Lewis, the police captain, said Adam Six was informed earlier that Monday that his father was coming up with the rest of the bail money and would be back on Tuesday morning.

Bail, Lewis said, is accepted in full any day of the week, regardless of whether it’s a holiday or weekend. The jail does not accept partial bail postings at any time.

Robert Six does not dispute that his son was in jail for a reason — a charge of third-degree theft — but he questions why his son was kept in the municipal jail for five days for such a petty crime. “People who are on meth are arrested and get released the next day,� Robert Six said. “He stole a little bit of laundry soap, and they couldn’t release him on his own recognizance? Something’s not right about that.�

Open Position for SIFC Member-at-Large Applications are located in MU 215. With application, include a resume and cover letter/ letter of interest.

Applications are due on February 6th no later than 5:00pm.

For more information, please see http://oregonstate.edu/sifc/ or contact Priscilla Macy at Student.Fees@oregonstate.edu

Adam Six had no criminal record in Oregon, according to the state judicial department’s website.

Shoplifting less than $100 worth of merchandise is a Class C misdemeanor, according to Oregon law, punishable by up to 30 days in jail and up to a $1,250 fine upon conviction.

Lewis said he does not know how long Adam Six would have been jailed if no bail had been posted. Releasing someone, on bail or on their own recognizance, is a decision left up to a municipal judge, he said.

The Springfield Municipal Jail was built, with voter approval, to prevent the frequent release of alleged criminals, Springfield police have said.

Overcrowding and a limited budget at the Lane County Jail closed off some cells for use there, resulting in some people being released within hours of their arrest. That’s something the Springfield Police Department

hoped to prevent with the completion of its municipal jail five years ago, Lewis has said in the past.

Six’s suicide is the second such incident in the Springfield jail. Kit Milo Brittain, 29, hanged himself in his jail cell in March 2011.

Oregon State Police are conducting an investigation into Six’s death, and Springfield police are reviewing their policies internally.

Lewis said the department is preparing to call in an expert to assess the safety of the jail. “We look at policies and make sure we followed policy. We look at the environmental factors inside the cells, and that’s something we’re looking into.�

Lewis said there is no way to make a cell 100 percent suicideproof unless the inmate is placed in a padded cell, naked.

The jail has one padded cell.

Meanwhile, Robert Six said he has been in touch with an attorney and isn’t sure what his next move will be.

String of pedestrian deaths in Salem raises questions

By Alisha Roemeling STATESMAN JOURNAL

SALEM — A recent string of fatal pedestrian crashes in Salem is raising questions about pedestrian safety.

Between Dec. 26 and Jan. 15 three vehicle crashes involving pedestrians resulted in four deaths. •David McGregor, 77, of Salem, was attempting to cross Center Street, in an unmarked crosswalk, when he was struck by a 2005 full-sized van around 5:45 a.m. on Jan. 15. McGregor was pronounced dead at the scene. •Christine and Michael Crossland were hit by a pickup truck while they walked on a sidewalk along Market Street NE around 5:30 p.m. on Jan. 6. Both were sent to the Salem Hospital in critical condition and died within days of each other after the crash. •Michael Johnson, 63,was hit by a Chevrolet Camaro and killed on around when he walked into the path of the vehicle on Summer Street NE and 5:30 p.m. on Dec. 26. Johnson was pronounced dead on the scene.

All three crashes took place in darkness. No drivers have been found to be at fault.

Dick Yates, 63, of Salem says that the root of the problem is unaware drivers. “In any intersection, whether it’s marked or not, pedestrians have the right of way,�Yates said. “The law is clear about what an unmarked crosswalk is and that

drivers must yield to a pedestrian in an unmarked crosswalk.

I think that 80 percent of people just don’t know that.�

Yates, who lives in South Salem, said that he often waits for long periods before crossing the street in unmarked crosswalks, which in Oregon are defined as “the imagined extension of a sidewalk or shoulder across a street at an intersection,� according to Multnomah County’s website.

Some think that pedestrians should always have the rightof-way regardless of weather conditions, time of day, or the color of their clothing.

Michael Miller, 54, of Salem, a neighbor of one of the fatal crash victims, said that “Daniel McGregor’s death never should have happened.�

According to Miller, McGregor was 77 years old and used a cane when he walked. The day he was killed he was using his cane to cross the street in an unmarked crosswalk around 5:45 a.m. and was struck by a large van. According to Miller, who is also disabled, the only reason he was crossing the street that dark, rainy morning was to get to his car, which legally had to be parked across the street. “Our neighborhood has residential parking spots for those that live in the area,� Miller said. “He was new to the area and hadn’t gotten one yet, but in my opinion we shouldn’t have them here.�

PARKING n Continued from page 1 But with what Meredith Williams, associate director of Transportation Services, calls the “grace period” for zonal parking over, students have reported seeing a recent increase in parking citations. According to Williams, between 1,000 and 2,000 parking citations have been distributed over the course of the term so far. Williams noted that Parking Services typically issues between 3,000 and 4,000 citations per term.

“The parking behavior hasn’t changed, but the number of patrols have increased and the ‘grace period’ we had when the zonal parking was first implemented is over,” Williams said.

Williams added that Parking Services hadn’t been operating with a full patrol staff last term, and the program was still new. Now the patrol staff is full, and patrols are more frequent.

According to Williams and Parking Services, the most common citation types that have been issued so far this term have been mainly warnings, followed by failure to pay meter fees and lack of permit visibility. The top three areas on campus where citations have been issued are Southwest 26th Street near Dixon Recreation Center, the short-term parking lot on Southwest Jefferson Way and the parking garage.

“The number-one goal of parking services is to educate people on how to drive and park legitimately on campus,” Williams said. “This is

about healthcare, according to their website.

“One of my options is health promotion, and what I’m interested in is sexual health, as part of my career in the future. I think it’s just really important, because it’s one of those things that a lot of people don’t like to talk about,” Zyirek said.

MARS encourages young men to schedule and attend an appointment with an incentive: a $20 gift card for Fred Meyer. The appointment is confidential and offers a comfortable environment to discuss sexual health issues.

the first time we’ve had zoning on campus, and we’re very open to feedback.”

A rising complaint among some commuters has been that zones aren’t clearly labeled.

Tanner Henderson, a senior in art, also attributes the rise in ticketing to parking in the wrong zones when pressed for time.

“Perhaps the rise in tickets seems to be coming from that,” Henderson said. “The fact that people can’t always find parking in their designated lot and are forced to park in another, or be late to class.”

Williams said that anytime an appeal is filed when people say the parking signs or labels are unclear, Parking Services looks into the issue, and will — in some cases — reduce the fine or refund it.

“We’re definitely interested in more education,” Williams said. “There’s a lot of misunderstanding about (parking on campus) and some room to improve, but we’re improving all the time.”

Additionally, the money earned through parking citations goes back to support the entire enforcement program, including vehicle rentals from the motor pool, handheld devices for enforcement, salaries for full-time patrol members, hourly wages for student patrol and ticket paper and envelopes.

“Patrol officers don’t just give citations either,” Williams said. “They regularly help people who lock their keys in their cars, give jumps and help people when they leave their lights on.”

“We heard today that there are students who are appalled by this,” Clark said. “They don’t want this to be a reflection of their university.”

Clark emphasized that the library is a large facility that serves a great number of people, often 24 hours a day, and has security patrolling the building.

“We think safety is the first priority on OSU campus,” Clark said.

Clark said the office of student conduct can investigate to see if a violation of the Student Conduct Code has occurred.

Rosene admitted trombones have a limited range as solo instruments, describing them

Depth for men’s basketball is glaring issue

W

hen it comes to playing at home, there’s no question that the Oregon State men’s basketball team plays with a level of intensity and focus that disrupts opposing teams. Top-10 teams like Arizona come into Gill Coliseum, and what should be an easy win, turns into a 40-minute battle that turns into a home team upset.

Head coach Wayne Tinkle — after a win at home against UCLA — talked about the Beavers maintaining a level of energy, focus and selflessness.

At home that seems to be there from the onset, but on the road something else seems to happen. On Wednesday against the Sun Devils, the Beavers came out and threw punches from the beginning, going up 4-0 early, but then something happened — Arizona State had a hot night.

Typically the Beavers’ zone defense is highly effective, both in maintaining no penetration inside the key, and closing the gap to the perimeter. But some quality screens from ASU — and some efficient passing — coupled with hot shooting, led to early threes and good penetration for the Sun Devils. This all led to large leads for Arizona State and a lack of cohesiveness for the Beavers.

Like previous road losses that the team sustained, key players went ice cold, which is a sort of slow death for a team that doesn’t have a whole lot of depth off the bench.

Against UCLA and USC at home, junior forward Olaf Schaftenaar scored 11 points per game; Wednesday night he had zero.

Junior guard Langston MorrisWalker — who has stepped in to the shoes of suspended junior guard Victor Robbins — had another off night, only making one shot from the field, which left him walking away with two points.

It is in situations like this that a glaring truth is exposed into “how good are the Beavers?”

Junior guard Gary Payton II had 23 points Wednesday and sophomore guard Malcolm Duvivier had 14, but that was about the sum of points for starters. Off the bench — as he has done most of the season — junior forward Jarmal Reid provided 13 additional points. But when it comes to the Beavers’ bench, that is about the only place points come from. This means that if a couple starters have an off night, there is really no one else to pick up the slack.

Depth is a major problem for this team, and without Robbins, it has only gotten worse.

As Tinkle has said before, “it is hard to win on the road in this conference.”

It is even more difficult when you lack a rotation of players to compensate for cold nights for starters. Next, the Beavers will tackle the No. 6 school in the country: Arizona.

The last time these two teams met was in Gill when the Beavers handed Arizona a loss. This time it will be in Arizona’s house, without high scoring Robbins and their second of two road games within three days — not to mention after a tough loss.

Teams are defined by these moments.

For the Beavers, another shot at top10 Arizona — and a win — will silence all the haters.

But with another blowout like Wednesday and ASU, questions and a return to the drawing board might be all that’s left.

Friday at 6 p.m.

The Wolverines are currently 2-4 on the season, and should be a good warm up for the Beavers before they take on Oklahoma (6-5) on Sunday at 11 a.m.

Oklahoma currently has three nationally ranked wrestlers in redshirt junior 133-pounder Cody Brewer, redshirt senior 157-pounder Justin Deangelis and redshirt sophomore 174-pounder Matt Reed. They are ranked No. 2, No. 12 and No. 20, respectively.

The OSU wrestling squad is coming off a dominate weekend against Northern Colorado (40-6) and South Dakota State (35-6), where they won 16 of 20 matches, and outscored their opponents collectively 75-12.

The Beavers will need to maintain that high level of intensity when they face off against the

The Beavers also finished poorly from the free-throw line, where they went 3-8 for 37.5 percent; well below their usual standard of 73 percent.

The Beavers will finish their trip to Arizona when they take on the sixth ranked Wildcats.

The Beavers hope to replicate what they were able to do against Arizona when the Beavers upset the Wildcats 58-56 earlier in this season.

Sooners, given their list of quality wrestlers.

The Beavers have already met the Sooner wrestlers once at the Aloha Invitational back in December, and only managed to win 4-6 matches against the school.

Oregon State only has six meets left before the Pac-12 Championships, but each of those meets will come on a weekend similar to this one, during which the Beavers will face two opponents within three days. This should provide the Beavers a good run up to the Pac-12 Championship event, which will be followed shortly after by the NCAA Championships late in March.

The Beavers will return home — 10 days short of a month — on Saturday, Feb. 7 to face off in a dual meet against Cal Poly, which will be followed up by a hosting of Boise State on the following day.

e have high hopes for the new bills introduced in the Associated Students of Oregon State University’s last House of Representatives meeting.

But the current lack of student attendance at the meeting crushes them.

Not knowing the time or location of meetings can make them hard to attend.

Perhaps the conspicuous lack of conspicuous meeting time information on the ASOSU website is a contributing factor to the empty gallery at the House and Senate meetings this week.

The only speaking gallery members at the ASOSU House of Representatives meeting Wednesday night were representatives from SafeRide, who discussed the expansions and changes within the program, andVote ORVote, who encouraged attendance for a Freeze Tuition Rally in Salem.

Both programs are associated with ASOSU. Any and all students are welcome to attend these meetings and voice their concerns about Oregon State University.

Sadly, this is a little-used and poorly advertised resource unknown to many on campus.

Go to ASOSU’s website and meeting times per week are not listed — for future reference, the Senate meets Tuesdays at 7 p.m., and the House meets Wednesdays at 7 p.m. Both meetings are held in the Memorial Union Journey Room.

Perhaps if students had access to readily available information about these meetings, more diverse student voices would be heard.

At these House meetings, student government officials discuss bills in detail concerning the budgetary allocations on campus and motions within the House itself.

Particularly bills 06.04 through 06.10 — bills that would create constituency seats for cultural and support centers affiliated with OSU, allowing them to act in the same capacity as existing ASOSU representatives.

It’d sure be nice if there were students there to see it all.

But it’s hard to criticize students for not being involved in their government when they would have to stage a smallscale investigation just to find out when and where the meetings happen.

That’s not even covering the mumbling throughout the proceedings. We suppose they call it a gallery because all we get to do is watch their mouths move.

OK, they do let the gallery speak toward the end. But since there are hardly any other students present, it might as well be a visual experience.

ASOSU may or may not be doing their jobs, but students can’t know if they’re not aware of the meeting time and place and can’t hear anything.

Why wouldn’t ASOSU want to advertise their efforts to make changes on campus in a greater public fashion and create a place where students can come and provide their voices to the proceedings?

Or advertise their visits to the cultural and support centers on campus?

Playing humble in this situation isn’t the card to play.

Fellow students: Attend these meetings and make your concerns known.

ASOSU: Get out there and advertise.

Show this university and its student body what you’re capable of.

ear Dr. Fit, I know I need to eat more fruits and vegetables but I don’t like the way veggies taste and it’s hard to find good options in the dining hall. Also after I eat a salad, I’m usually hungry an hour later.

Do you have any suggestions?

—The Veggie Hater Dear Veggie Hater, You are not alone in this dilemma.

The need to eat more fruits and vegetables is a constant comment I get from students.

On one side, we know they are good for us.

They are low in fat and calories while also being high fiber, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.

Fruit and veggies are also linked to reducing the risk of diseases and regulating our blood sugars. However, knowing and doing are two very different things.

It is recommended that college-aged men and women should eat two cups of fruit and two and a half to three cups of veggies each day.

These numbers increase the more active you are.

With only eight percent of Americans meeting the fruit recommendation and six percent meeting the veggie amounts, we need to start rethinking what we are putting into our mouths.

Throughout campus there are an abundance of apples, oranges and bananas.

But as you become tired of these options, you may consume less fruits.

To add variety, pick up some pineapple, grapes, or melon every second or third day.

They are more expensive but totally worth it.

Frozen, dried, or canned fruit are another option.

Adding frozen blueberries to your yogurt in the morning or making a smoothie can increase your fruit intake dramatically.

Dried fruit is a great snack to keep in your backpack.

Try to choose dried varieties where fruit is the only ingredient as opposed to ones that add sugars like candied mango or papaya.

Canned fruit is convenient for students and lasts a long time.

Fruit in light syrup is preferred over the other added syrups.

Many college students have a more difficult time consuming vegetables compared to fruit.

Two thirds of vegetables are consumed at dinner, and it sounds like you don’t really enjoy putting them on your plate.

If your childhood memories of vegetables are negative, like being forced to eat peas or broccoli before you get dessert, you might still hold a grudge. For me, peas are still that vegetable that I refuse to eat and will pick out of a casserole.

Dr. Erica Woekel

Ask Dr. Fit However, there are more vegetables out there waiting for you.

Try finding one or a few that you do like and planning your meal around that vegetable.

By choosing the broccoli, green beans, carrots or sweet potato at the beginning and then adding the protein and carbohydrates, we make sure our plate indeed has some veggies on it.

It’s also important to think about the preparation of the vegetable.

If they’re overcooked, mushy or salty, they become difficult to swallow.

Raw, roasted, or steamed are tasty options that make veggies more palatable. If you are not used to eating veggies it may take some time to start enjoying them, but that’s part of the re-learning process.

About 25 percent of the population are ‘super tasters,’ which means the taste buds are extra sensitive to bitter tastes.

This trait would make cruciferous veggies like cabbage or broccoli difficult to consume.

You can modify the sensitive taste buds by adding these veggies to food you already love like a burrito, stir-fry, pizza, spaghetti or soup.

On-campus dining does provide many vegetable options, but if those are not to your liking, I suggest taking a trip to Cascadia Market or WinCo. For about $10 at WinCo, you can get a bag of baby carrots, jicama, small bell peppers, cucumber, snow peas and broccoli to keep in your dorm room.

These can be eaten raw or with hummus or ranch and last up to two weeks.

As for your salad predicament, if salads are making you feel hungry an hour after eating, try adding some power veggies, healthy fat, protein and complex carbohydrate to your leafy greens.

Items like spinach, kale, cabbage, avocado, olives, nuts, chicken breast, eggs, beans or legumes. Also having a whole wheat bun or crackers with the salad helps round out the meal, keeping you fuller longer. You also may need a snack of apples and peanut butter 2-3 hours later. That’s OK. Starting a new habit of adding more fruits and veggies into your diet is tough but admirable.

I hope you will soon be a veggie-liker or lover as opposed to a hater. t

Letter to the Editor Regarding Jan. 28 editorial

‘Representatives not representative of student body’ The lack of diversity in the ASOSU congress has, for some time, been a troubling issue for congressional leaders. While the current Representatives have done an effective job in their positions, I quite agree with concerned voices that this lack of diversity is not acceptable for a body that seeks to be truly representative. However, this is a problem that is being addressed. I have made increasing the diversity of the House of Representatives the main priority of my Speakership, and I have been working throughout the year with the Cultural Resource Centers and Support Centers to make this a reality.

By the end of this year we should have constituency seats set aside specifically for historically underrepresented groups, as well as other important student organizations on campus. We have additionally sought, in our hiring

and appointments, to bring in more individuals from traditionally underrepresented populations. We have done far more than mere lip service — we have taken real steps to make the House of Representatives truly representative. Hopefully this will only be the beginning, and the increasing diversity of the House will encourage more marginalized students to seek office. I appreciate and respect the concern of the Barometer; however, I would hope that in the future the writers of the Editorial section report a situation in its entirety. I would also have hoped that in this case they acknowledged the very real work that is being done by student government to make the House more diverse. In the months and years to come, the House will expand to include more student viewpoints, perspectives, and understandings, something I and my colleagues look forward to with excitement.

Bad Suns: SoCal Vibes in the City of Roses, one night only A

s some Southern Californian natives know, we have been fortunate enough to be exposed to the lively music scene that the City of Angels has to offer.

You may have spent countless nights on Sunset Blvd digging through new and used vinyl at Amoeba Records, catching former lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots, Scott Weiland, perform a set at the infamous Viper Room or being a “starry-eyed” witness to an almost spiritually chaotic Flaming Lips concert at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

When making that 16 hour journey on the I-5 northbound freeway, the Pacific Northwest provides a whole new take on the indie genre that is unrivalled to anything else experienced down south, with bands such as: Washington based femme punk band, Sleater-Kinney, Portland based lo-fi indie band, The Thermals, art-rock band, Wet Confetti and much more.

However, for one night, LA based alternative band Bad Suns will deliver a combination of edgy guitar riffs and mellow SoCal vibes to the City of Roses.

Thursday, Jan. 29, the Bad Suns will take their act to Portland, performing for only $20 at the Hawthorne Theater, and if this performance is anything like I have seen before, this concert is not one to miss.

Though in their early stages, the skillfully thought out lyrics of front

The Daily Barometer man Christo Bowman somehow find their way into the mind of the listener, whether they love them or hate them.

I can recall the first instance I saw them live.

It was at the Troubadour in West Hollywood, an intimate setting ideal for new artists.

Taking a first glance at the audience, one could easily assume the four man group is just like any other overly hyped “boy band,” with hordes of teenage girls eagerly waiting to catch even the slightest glimpse of them before the show starts.

However, when disregarding the people surrounding my sister and me — to whom I am grateful for introducing me to the band’s music — one can easily give into the show that Bowman and his group put on.

Without missing a single song from their 2014 debut album, “Language & Perspective”, the Bad Suns instantly gained my respect with their fluid ballads and strong riffs that could sound reminiscent of rock groups past.

The group, ranging from ages 19-22, left even the few 30-somethings in the audience longing for more entertainment and fervently waiting by the merchandise booth to take a picture with the guys after.

It is a night like this, out of the many nights spent in Hollywood, that can shift your taste in music, even if it is only for a fleeting moment — that you can listen to their concluding song, “Rearview,” close your eyes and feel the California sun beating down on fresh skin and the roar of Laguna Beach’s foaming waves as they carelessly throw themselves against the cliffs and roll back or the giddy-up of an old muscle car cruising down the Pacific Coast Highway “feeling so far from home, trying to fill a hole, sunset in the rearview, losing all control.” t

Boogie down at Bombs Away

T

he winter darkness and foggy nights seem to cause the body and mind to shut down.

With school, work and Netflix to watch it may seem difficult to garner the energy to get out from under the comforters after 5 p.m.

But don’t give in.

Melt your winter apathy away with music and burritos.

This Thursday, Jan. 29, eight of KBVR’s DJs are playing 20-minute sets of their favorite jams at Bombs Away Café.

All-ages are allowed in until 10 p.m.

The night gets started at 7 p.m. with Captain Walt and DJ Fitz. Promotions director, DJ Fitz, will be busting out some Portuguese jazz and Captain Walt, KBVR station manager, mentioned his costume would be making an appearance.

Walt and Fitz will be MC’ing the whole evening.

Music will range from electronic to dream pop, with stops at world music and alternative along the way.

DJ Harriet Potter is bringing feel-good oldies to the table.

DJ Gaia’s set features indie rock.

Rounding out the night will be local bands Black Market Bargain and The Cosmos. Both bands include Oregon State students. Black Market Bargain has a bluesy rock vibe and The Cosmos were described as funk-soul.

DJ Fitz said KBVR teamed up with Bombs Away to get more local music scene in the spotlight.

Nathan Mayers, member of Black Market Bargain and the KBVR program director, said the night is celebrating their DJs, who they currently have 110 of.

Kudos from me for the station’s massive pool of music enthusiasts.

Mayers wants to show their DJs how important they are to the “coolest club on campus.”

Not only will attendees be able to rock out to a variety of music, but there will be giveaways throughout the night. Giveaways include CDs from local bands, gift cards to the host, Bombs Away, and tickets to see the band Particle down in Eugene.

Personally, I would consider this a great way to support fellow classmates, as well as be a part of the weird world of the Corvallis community.

When you let it, Corvallis can be a strange, intriguing place, and events like these give students a chance to be a part of it.

Don’t like music?

Well you probably like nachos, so there’s no reason not to stop by. t

‘(in)Tangible Being’brings spirituality to Fairbanks A

s sleepy students shuffle back and forth across campus to get to class, few take the time to stop into Fairbanks Hall, where art lines the walls in quiet elegance.

I confess that I was one who used to tread past Fairbanks regularly without even glancing up.

However, Fairbanks is a fantastic spot to get a quick breather from the responsibilities of the everyday, and to reflect on outstanding art.

The current exhibit is titled “(in)Tangible Being; I Paint, pour, gaze and paint, pour, gaze.”

The featured artist is Sang-ah Choi, who, according to her artist biography, was born in South Korea but currently resides in Beaverton.

Choi is the real deal.

She has earned bachelor and Master’s degrees in Fine Arts, and her work has been exhibited across the globe, from Seoul, to New York, to the Portland Art Museum.

To create (in)Tangible Being, Choi used acrylic and mixed media.

As I walked about the Fairbanks lobby, the resin that she used reflected the light, and made each unique piece stand out.

Each part is certainly connected in some

way.

For instance, every work uses three colors or fewer — white, black and blue are the only colors that are used.

This ties all of the works together, and creates a calming effect.

The fewer colors also allow the pieces to be extremely complex without looking to busy.

Choi wrote in her Artist’s Statement that, “(in)Tangible Being examines the relationships between eastern and western cultures, religious icons, and painting methods...I paint works that incorporate these relationships by bringing together controlled, deliberate mark making and uncontrolled chance drips.’’

Doug Russell, Fairbanks Gallery Director, explained that because Choi is trying to incorporate both western and eastern cultures, she chose the blue delft, the color often used on china plates, to signify the western, while

painting bamboo to signify the eastern.

He is very impressed with Choi’s work.

“I tend to be very visual rather than conceptual,” Russell said.

He pointed to Choi’s “Number 12” as his favorite painting, because of its use of contrast and depth.

Russell also noted that Choi likes to use the ideas of purposeful versus accidental painting.

Though some of the works are very abstract, many of the works are extremely intricate.

Some have marks so tiny that the viewer must lean close to the painting to get a grasp of how much work must have gone into creating the piece.

Despite the fact that the paintings are shown together as a series, each is interesting and distinct enough to stand out on its own. “[Choi]’s not the artist who does the same art over and over again,” said Russell.

Karina Destine, a junior in Bio health science who was also viewing Choi’s series, said that she makes a point to see each new exhibit Fairbanks has to offer.

She mentioned that she really liked (in) Tangible Being.

“It almost seems like a journey; like a transi-

tion from physical to spiritual,” said Destine.

I have to agree.

There were certainly parts of some of the works that were concrete images that I could define and recognize.

However, some were not as recognizable, and the glazes made them seem almost translucent.

Destine mentioned that she thought the glaze was a cool touch.

“It lets you look at it, but also reflects your image back at you,” she said.

I know that we’re all busy people.

We’re in college. That being said, I highly encourage you to take a minute to check out Fairbanks Hall.

Whether it’s to kill time between classes, or to unwind for a few minutes and reflect, this exhibit is worth seeing.

I know I’ll be back. (in)Tangible Being will hang in Fairbanks Hall until Feb. 4. t
