WRC
continued from page 2
D’Alemberte was unavailable for
comment, but Abele said FSU’s po
sition to stay out of the WRC is
largely because of the university’s
current affiliation with the Fair La
bor Association.
“We feel (the FLA) is who we
want to deal with to address this is
sue,” Dr. Abele said. “There are
many fine organizations out there,
and the university has to use pub
lic funds very wisely.”
According to Pendas, D’Alem
berte’s reasons for keeping
FSU from joining the WRC tend
to change.
“First is was a money issue.
(Then it was that) the WRC scares
him because he believes they are
anti-free trade. (Now D’Alemberte
says) the WRC is an advocacy
group, and the university doesn’t
join advocacy groups,” he said.
USAS national field organizer
Amber Gallop, who works with
many universities, said joining the
WRC is the ethical choice.
“I’m confident (FSU) eventually
will be able to think about it in a ra
tional way,” she said.
FSU student government Vice
President Patrick Sullivan said his
administration supports student ac
tivism but disagreed with the pro
testers’ tactics.
“I think it’s awesome that stu
dents are passionate about human
rights,” he said. Sullivan added
that despite his support of ac
tivism, he believes camping was
the wrong way to go about inform
ing students.
Knight applied pressure
In late April 2000, Nike CEO and
University alumnus Phil Knight
pulled all funding from the Univer
sity of Oregon and vowed never to
give money again — a direct re
sponse to Frohnmayer committing
the University to the WRC.
During that summer, Frohnmay
er made a sudden reversal of his
prior decisions and joined the FLA.
Many students and groups, such as
the Human Rights Commission, de
cried the decision, saying he failed
to act in a democratic way.
A week later, University Gener
al Counsel Melinda Grier, who ex
amined the WRC charter, recom
mended to Frohnmayer that the
University not pay dues to the
group because she said it was nei
ther incorporated nor a non-profit
organization.
Since the University is a public
institution, she contended, state
law bars it from giving money to a
group like the WRC. Following Gri
er’s opinion, Frohnmayer an
nounced he would not pay the
dues necessary to become an offi
cial member of the WRC. When stu
dents objected, Frohnmayer said
the University had never actually
been a member of the WRC, and
therefore accusations that it was
dropping out were inaccurate.
In February 2001, the State Board
of Higher Education adopted a poli
cy saying all schools in the OUS
system must “conduct business in
a straightforward and politically
impartial manner.” The decision
negated the University’s affiliation
with the WRC and the FLA, barring
them from joining such groups in
the future, and dissolved the code
of conduct drafted by the LCCC for
corporations using the University
logo. The debate over the Universi
ty’s enrollment into the WRC essen
tially ended.
On March 6, 2001, Frohnmayer
officially cut all ties with the WRC
and FLA. The following Septem
ber, Phil Knight announced he
would continue funding the new
Autzen project.
