THE YEAR IN REVIEW A BUDDING INDUSTRY October 1, 2015

The recreational use and sales of marijuan took effect Oct. 1, 2015 in Oregon. Five dispensaries in Corvallis were able to sell recreationally on that date. However, because Oregon State University is a federally funded entity, and marijuana remains illegal federally, marijuan is still considered a controlled substance by OSU and the possession, sale or use of marijuana on university property is still strictly prohibited. After Dec. 31, all medical dispensaries that were selling recreationally in Corvallis for the short period it was allowed had to apply for a recreational license.

A 17-year-old male was arrested following a high-speed chase that went through and ended on the Oregon State University campus on Friday, Oct. 23. The suspect had made threats against his ex-girlfriend who was an OSU student and was alledgedly on his way to find her on campus. The chase ended around 7:20 p.m. in front of West Hall, one of OSU’s residence halls, when the suspect got out of his car and officers were able to apprehend him. During the chase and apprehension, the residence hall and other buildings on campus were put on lockdown.

Highlights from the 2015-2016 school year ADDRESSING CAMPUS EQUALITY November 17, 2015

Oregon State University students had their chance to speak out about their experiences with inequality, prejudice and racism at the university at the Speak Out event on Nov. 16 in Gill Coliseum.

Topics such as cultural appropriation, the teaching of curriculum that’s insensitive to minorities as well as students questioning their safety on campus were discussed by attendees. As a result of the event, OSU President Ed Ray and the administration held two town hall meetings over the course of the remainder of the year.

Outgoing Editor-in-Chief Rachel Suchan reflects

I

magine spending hours working tirelessly on a final project. You research, write, study, proofread, design and triple check everything. Then print out five thousand copies and distribute them all across town and on the internet for everyone you know and thousands of people you don’t know to read it, judge it and tell you what you did wrong.

Then do that five days a week for an entire year.

That’s what it’s like to be editorin-chief of a daily newspaper.

I absolutely loved it.

My time here has taught me more than I could have ever imagined about community, relationships, involvement and

By Rachel Suchan Editor-in-Chief

accomplishments.

Thank you for never being afraid to point out my failures. I have learned more from them than you will ever know.

The late nights and stressful deadlines are all worth the invaluable experiences I have gained through my time here.

As you may already know, after 95 years of daily service to the students, The Daily Barometer now faces a fundamental shift which will certainly change the publication as we know it forever.

For those of us who have been a part of this paper and grown up with newspapers still delivered to doorsteps, this shift is met with a sizable dose of nostalgia.

Alongside it, though, excitement, collaboration and creativity as we transition to a period of innovation and evolution.

As The Daily Barometer moves from daily print to a weekly publication, know that as journalists, our job remains the same—to entertain and inspire, to educate and inform, to represent the underrepresented, to be a voice for the voiceless, to speak for those too afraid to speak for themselves.

Help the future staff in their journey by approaching their mistakes with a gentle understanding. As students and even just as human beings, we are always learning and growing.

Know that as a student body

it is absolutely possible for your voices to be heard, and that the Barometer is here to help make that happen.

Above all else, thank you for reading. Thank you for caring and for sharing our articles and your opinions.

Thank you for using our publication as a platform for sharing important campus issues.

Keep on keepin’ on and don’t forget to write.

hat a year it has been. We have experienced so much over the last nine months.

From the women’s team making the NCAA Final Four, to mammoth bones being discovered under our feet on campus, to campus wide dialogues surrounding social justice, diversity

and inclusion, we have been through several peaks and valleys as a community.

Working as a reporter and the news editor for The Daily Barometer, I hope that I have in some way contributed positively to your experience at OSU over this time with the coverage of these events and more.

As I take the reigns of The Daily Barometer now, I am beyond excited to see what the future has in store. This has been a year of transition for us at the Baro as well, with a lot of internal changes being made since August, which will continue into my term as Editor-in-Chief.

Next year The Daily Barometer will switch over from printing five days a week, to only being printed once a week.

There are a variety of reasons behind this decision, but over-

all, this transformation will be a positive one that will allow our coverage to be more expansive and more inclusive.

While the nearly one hundred years of daily publication leaves many of us with a nostalgic feeling and a hesitation to buy into the “new”, I ask that you go into this new era with an open mind and a willingness to continue to see the Barometer as your source for campus news.

We are expanding our online presence not only at the Barometer, but also within the entire Orange Media Network, and next year will be the first time that all of your student media will be working closely together to bring a variety of content to students and the community on several different platforms.

Sports coverage will continue

Congratulations to all of our Graduating Seniors!

Thank you all for choosing to be a part of the MURFS Family.

We have enjoyed watching you grow and look forward to seeing all that you will accomplish!

We wish you all good luck!

to grow through radio broadcasts, game coverage and videos, as well as features. Forum will continue to highlight the campus’s voices and opinions and the arts and entertainment related content will still come out regularly. In addition to this, several blogs covering a wide array of topics are being started for the first time that will further provide online exclusive content daily for those interested.

The news will continue to exist on a daily cycle, with much of the the same content you are used to this year continuing to exist online next year. This will allow for the printed edition of the Barometer to focus on more impactful, heavy hitting pieces.

The Daily Barometer and Orange Media Network are growing, and we are excited to have you along for the ride.

During my time with the Barometer this year, I have made relationships and friendships that will last a lifetime, and feel more connected to this campus and this community than I ever would have imagined possible.

I have also experienced failure on more than one occasion, but with that, I have learned the importance of learning from one’s mistakes and using them to grow not only personally, but professionally as well. The Barometer is a better publication now because of those mistakes, and I will continue to take the lessons we have learned this year forward and ensure that they are not made again.

Undoubtedly, we will fail again, but I look forward to expanding coverage next year to become a more inclusive publication, and shedding lights on

Students on the Stree

By Brean 1

3 Questions asked:

A) Who is one of the most influential people you have come across during your time at OSU? B) What are you going to miss most about OSU?

2 1: Hannah Holman Speech Communication A) “The first person that comes

to mind is Leslie C. Schacht-Drey.

She is the coordinator for the center of fraternity and sorority life.

I’ve only known her for a year, but she’s just a great person to look up to. She just rocks! She rocks at her job. She does not let anybody get in her way of doing what she wants to do.”

2: Alex Arreguin Computer Science A) “Definitely my supervisors at

work (Valley Library). They have helped me with a lot with on and off the job issues.“

3: Julia Shields Zoology A) “My older sister, Molly, she

was a senior when I was a freshman here at OSU. And I did not want to necessarily follow in her footsteps, but it worked out. She was always there to show me the ropes my first year. Ever since then she still comes to visit. So she has been a good support system.”

B) “I am going to miss being around so many people who want to do something with their future.

And being around people that are striving to succeed in life.”

4. Abrianna Lochner Kinesiology Major A) “Lindsay Biga, she is the pro-

fessor of anatomy and physiology at the 200 level. The first day of her lecture, my first day on campus, first everything—I thought I was well prepared.

I purchased my anatomy textbook, unwrapped it, and redeemed the code. Then I got there and realized it was the wrong textbook.

I freaked out.

So Lindsay, she notices I am really upset, and I tell her what happened.

She tells me to follow her to her office. At this point I am sobbing day one in front of my professor.

She said ‘Why don’t you let me use that textbook for my reference?’

Then she turned around and hands me a complete set of the textbook that she had purchased extra to give them to people like me.

So now every year I lend out every textbook I have. I never re-sold a textbook since. So I’ve recently gave away like a $200 physics textbook just to pay it forward.”

6. Natalie Lind Zoology B) “Probably Professor Andrew

Blaustein. He really started my interest in animal cognition and behavior. So I think that’s what set the ground work for what I want to do with my career.”

7: Deven Hunter Apparel Design A) “My professor, Kathy Mullet.

She has helped me grow as a designer, and helped me step by step, and she also played a good part in the fashion show.”

B) “What I’ll miss most about OSU is my friends, the connections I’ve made over the last four years, and this nice community.”

8. Jessica Frelich Human development and Family Studies A) “My sister. She joined the

And I’ll miss being so close to all my friends that I’ve made over the last four years. They’re all going to be off doing their own thing. This is going to be the only time everyone is in one area. So I am definitely going to miss that.”

9. Jack Brennan Plant Breeding and Genetics B) “Just meeting new people.

Being at a university (offers) a great diversity of people, so it is a lot easier to meet people.”

This is (not) the end of our journey

By Sean Bassinger Forum editor

O

n an April evening in 2013, I was getting ready to head home after I turned in my last news article for the week.

That’s when my boss got the call.

“What?” She first asked. It was her brother, describing a bomb threat that someone called into each residence hall on campus, but I didn’t know that yet.

I did, however, know that my night wasn’t over.

I’ve spent three out of my five years in college at Oregon State University, though it honestly feels like I attended here longer.

I could say the same about my two years at Linn-Benton Community College, and my three month stay during my first internship at the Klamath Falls Herald and News.

Sometimes, when you’re a journalist, you get to do a little bit of everything.

I say “sometimes” since some reporters stick to a single beat or topic within their beat. Others say farewell to the reporter’s life after a term or two as they ascend to the role of section editor, managing editor or editor-in-chief.

Others don’t always get the full experience when they decide this isn’t for them.

And that’s perfectly fine—exactly

Downtown Corvallis Corner of 2nd & Madison 541-752-5518 www.clothes-tree.com

how it should be, actually.

Nobody’s college experience is going to be “one size fits all.”

One of the greatest things I’ve loved about working for a student paper is getting to see a variety of these experiences in my own way, whether it was from bolting out to cover breaking news on campus chaos to sitting at the editor’s desk as an indifferent conservative pens a letter to let me know how they really feel (spoiler alert: not happy).

But the paper (and this goes for all newspapers, quite frankly) is more than just an aging coffee shop decoration or something for grammar aficionados to yell at.

The Daily Barometer has existed for more than a century on campus—it first published in 1896 and evolved from a weekly to a daily, and will likely see more transitions on the print front as community journalism continues a seemingly frightening shift toward digital platforms (more spoiler alerts: it’s really not that frightening).

If you search through the archives, that’s more than 120 years of studentdocumented history.

And, naturally, student papers tend to receive a pretty large amount of criticism, which I’m rather fond of myself.

Someone would not comment if they did not care. You should care.

And, as the guard continues to shift, there will be better and worse terms.

The same goes for other student-ran organizations on campus, such as the Associated Students of Oregon State University.

No matter what any of us do or continue to do, we’re going to receive what we put in. Based on my own stories and interviews over the years, I’ve seen many students, staff and faculty put a lot of energy and drive into this university.

Tackling the future Senior to continue her love of sports, rugby overseas

By Lauren Sluss

Her positive attitude also generally percolated through the team.

David Dickson

OSU Women’s Rugby Head Caoch McBride’s leadership allowed the new players to grow and learn.

“She leads with humility and is always working with the players who are new,” Parker said. “What’s important to her is that we are working together as a team, and she is always helping us learn the basic skills to help us become better players.”

McBride’s ability to lead extends into other facets of life as well, including attending Grace City Church in Corvallis. Since joining the church her freshmen year, McBride discovered her new passion of volunteering.

“People ask me why I volunteer so much, but I don’t see it as volunteering because I enjoy it and love the people,” McBride said. “The way God has changed my life and

grown me is something that would have never happened if I didn’t go or if I didn’t come to OSU.” McBride’s passion for sports and volunteering will not stop after her time at OSU, however. This summer, McBride plans to travel around the country through Unchartered Waters Sports Ministry, hosting sports camps for local churches.

“I’m going to be leading four and five year old groups, and will be focusing on gross movement and motor development,” McBride said.

“It’s really cool because I’ve learned all of it through my major.”

After hosting two camps per week for the entire summer, the group plans to make one final stop—Belize.

“At the end of the summer we will put on three camps in 11 days in Belize,” McBride said. “I’m so excited about it; I think it’s going to be a lot of fun.”

After her time in Belize, McBride plans to spend time with her family in California hiking Mt. Whitney, and then return to Corvallis.

Although McBride has several plans for her future, she is currently looking towards graduation next week, a bittersweet moment for her.

“I’ll probably cry a lot. I might cry now,” McBride said. “It didn’t matter what I was going through, I always

felt like the university was supportive no matter what, through the services they offered and through my instructors.”

Although McBride is about to leave OSU, those around her are confident of her ability to take what she learned at OSU and apply it to her life, according to Dickson.

“I hope that she maintains and carries the confidence and leadership she found on the rugby pitch through the rest of her other efforts in life,” Dickson said. “If she does that, she will be successful in whatever she chooses to do, and that’s all I wish.” baro.news@oregonstate.edu

Te a m m a t e A l e x a n d ra Fautanu admired McBride from the very first time they met, while Fautanu was watching McBride play in a rugby game.

“She [McBride] got the ball and was stiff-arming people left and right, but then she got tackled and twisted her ankle.

On the sidelines she continued to cheer on her team, yelling at them to do better,” said Fautanu, a sophomore in mechanical engineering.

“From that instance I admired her, and throughout the year she kept demonstrating these skills.”

Fautanu was not the only teammate to respect McBride on the rugby team.

As a young girl growing up in Redlands, California, Amanda McBride knew her life would always be filled with sports. From playing water polo and rugby, to majoring in exercise and sports science, McBride’s athletic life was never dull.

Now, as a graduating senior from Oregon State University, McBride looks towards a future filled with her favorite things—sports, anatomy and best of all, teaching.

“My dream is to teach high school anatomy,” McBride said. “If I’m working either with sports or anatomy, it’s not really work because I want to learn about it. It’s always been a passion of mine.”

During her time at OSU, McBride demonstrated her love of sports by joining the OSU Women’s Rugby Club.

The club provided her with new friendships which helped her through her first year.

“My freshmen year, I was going through a really hard time, and they rallied around me in a way I didn’t expect,” McBride said. “They came and hung out with me in my dorm when I was feeling bad, and they became my family away from home.”

After three years of playing, McBride took on her leadership role this year by becoming the club’s president. Although it required a lot of work, McBride was able to keep the club running smoothly and help her teammates along the way, according to OSU Women’s Rugby Head Coach David Dickson.

“Her positive attitude also generally percolated through the team,” Dickson said. “She was always able to pick herself up when things were chal-
