I Buildings
Continued from Page 1
building was dedicated in 1915, it
seemed natural to name it after the
man who founded the University,
Richard said.
“He had the organizational
skills to get the University going
and keep it going,” he said.
Straub Hall was dedicated to
John Straub shortly before he
died. He was the acting president
who followed Johnson's term. He
worked for the University from
1878 to 1930 and served his term
as president in 1893. This build
ing was named in honor of his
long-term of service, Richard said.
Chapman Hall was finished in
1924 and named after the third
president, Charles Hiram Chap
man. Chapman was the president
from 1893 to 1899. He ended the
conservative style of teaching that
President Johnson had modeled
after his experiences at Yale,
Richard said.
Prince Lucien Campbell Hall
(PLC) is an abomination of a
building named after an outstand
ing man, Richard said. Campbell
was dedicated to achieving excel
lence at the University, Richard
said. He served as president from
1902 to 1925. Campbell died in
1925, and the building was dedi
cated to him in 1967.
The Erb Memorial Union is
named after the seventh presi
dent, Donald Milton Erb. He was
the president from 1938 to 1943.
In this case, students were the pri
mary reason for the building’s
dedication. Erb proposed the idea
of building a student union. When
the building was finished in 1950,
seven years after the end of his ser
vice, students petitioned to have
it dedicated to him.
There is one case in which a por
tion of a building was dedicated to
a president who served after 1969.
The Olum Atrium was named af
ter Paul Olum, the 13th president,
who served from 1980 to 1989.
Olum played a crucial role in get
ting fu nd i ng for the sciences at the
University, Moseley said.
While the early presidents were
blessed with timing, recent presi
dents could face a bigger chal
lenge. Because fewer buildings are
being constructed, the opportunity
is limited. Additionally, monetary
not collegiate contributions, have
gained importance, Richard said.
There are buildings such as
Willamette, Deschutes and Kla
math that are actually being held
in reserve. Essentially, if an ade
quate donation is made, the build
ing will be dedicated to the donor.
“We'll probably never name a
building after just real contribu
tions again," Richard said. “I think
we’re for sale now. Most campus
es are.”
News Brief
Professor to research
‘green’ businesses
A University business professor
is one of 11 researchers and the
only one in the Pacific Northwest
who will receive a 1998 Industrial
Ecology research Fellowship from
the National Science Foundation
and the Lucent Technologies
Foundation.
Michael Russo, an associate
professor of management at the
University’s Charles H. Lundquist
College of Business, will receive
$100,000 to support a two-year
study of “green" business prac
tices. His study will focus on
what motivates American elec
tronics companies to seek envi
ronmental management certifica
tion from the International
Organization for Standards. The
study will also look at whether
companies that received certifica
tion subsequently improved their
environmental performance.
The fellowships, which total
$1.1 million, award up to $50,000
per year for two years to support
research and teaching to help in
dustry design processes that pre
vent pollution and create environ
mentally friendly products.
