Delegates to attend USSA congress in Connecticut
The ASUO will send seven delegates to the 41st an
nual national congress of the United States Student
Association (USSA), July 22-27, at the University of
Hartford, in West Hartford, Conn.
The University’s delegation includes ASUO Presi
dent Karen Gaffney and Vice President Steve Hoyt. The
other five delegates are Armando Morales and Tim
Hughes, both members of the Incidental Fee Commit
tee, and Cathlin Williams, Deb Carter and Maria-Ana
Carvajal-Christensen.
“1 see this (the USSA congress) as an opportunity
for the University to use its resources very effectively to
shape where USSA will head for the rest of the year,”
Gaffney said.
USSA will plan its agenda for the 1988-89
academic year at the congress.
At the convention, delegates from schools across
the nation will meet in regional groups and caucuses to
set plans and priorities on issues of student concern.
This year, Gaffney expects the biggest issues raised
at the USSA congress to be taxation waivers for
graduate teaching fellows, child care, spousal
equivalency for unmarried homosexual and heterosex
ual couples, and recruitment and retention of students
of color.
In addition to representing University interests in
the drafting of USSA’s agenda, Gaffney hopes to keep
the University’s influence in USSA strong.
“One of our goals, of course, is to maintain the
strong position of the University in the national
organization.
Toward that end. Gaffney is encouraging Universi
ty delegates to seek out leadership positions at the con
gress. At home, she hopes to create a USSA internship
within the ASUO program.
Most members of the ASUO delegation left for
Hartford early this morning. Gaffney, who serves on
USSA's executive committee, flew out Wednesday for
pre-congress meetings.
After the convention's end, Gaffney. Hoyt and
Morales will fly to Washington, D.C. to meet with
Oregon congressional representatives, including Rep.
Peter DeFazio, D-Ore., author of a congressional bill
that would reenact the tuition tax waiver granted to
graduate teaching fellows.

Endowment created to honor professor
The University’s College of
Business Administration has
been rewarded with an pro
fessorship endowment, in
honor of a former dean.
The Richard W. Lindholm
Professorship was named for
Lindholm, who was business
college dean from 1958 to 1971.
Lindholm retired in 1972, but
still remains as a professor
emeritus of finance.
The professorship was
steered on by James Warsaw,
one of Lindholm's former
students at the University. War
saw now resides in Irvine,
Calif., where he is a sports
equipment businessman.
Warsaw, and several other
donors wishing to remain
anonymous, contributed a
substantial portion of the
$500,000 needed to endow the
professorship.

News Bureau press release,
Warsaw said Lindholm played a
very influential role in his
career decision.
"His enthusiasm and com
mitment fostered a sensitivity in
me that the private sector's in
volvement in government's
isues can have a positive impact
on public policy," Warsaw
said. “As an individual, as a
scholar and teacher, he was a
leading figure in my business
education.”
The first Lindholm Professor
will be appointed next fall.
Richard W. I.indholm
Lindholm has served as a
fiscal economist and consultant
to the IJ.S. House of Represen
tatives' Ways and Means Com
mittea, an economic consultant
to first National Hank of Oregon
from 1961 to 1969 and as an ad
viser to the taxation and finance
departments of five states,
Guam and six foreign countries.
Lind h o I m also was a
Fulbright scholar to Pakistan in
1952. He was awarded the Beta
Gamma Sigma Distinguished
Scholarship Award for his
distinguished career, and in
1977 he was named a Lincoln
Foundation scholar. Lindholm
also is listed in the "Who's Who
in the World" directory.
Lindholm received his
bachelor's degree from
Gustavus Adolphus College in
St. Peter, Minn, in 19.1,5. lie
received his master's degree
from thi; University of Min
nesota in 19118 and his doctoral
degree from the University of
Texas in 1142.
The endowment of professor
ships is one of the goals of Cam
paign for Oregon, a five-year
$60 million capital campaign
formally launched last May.
The two-phase campaign hopes
to bring the University $7.25
million in named endowed
academic positions by the end
of its run in 1992.
