News brief
OSA to discuss recall
on Saturday
The Oregon Student Association
Board of Directors will discuss recall
ing chairwoman Rachel Pilliod from
her leadership position at their
monthly meeting Saturday, but ques
tions still remain unanswered.
Pilliod, who is also the ASUO Presi
dent, came under fire this week when
Oregon State University student
body president and board member
Bridget Burns accused her of break
ing OSA bylaws and acting in an “in
credibly partisan manner.” Many of
the OSA’s 16 members said they’re
not sure what to do with the charges
or whether Pilliod is likely to be re
moved from her seat.
The group meets Saturday at South
ern Oregon University for a public
meeting to discuss a number of issues,
and Bums is expected to bring the re
call issue to the floor. For a recall to
take place, every' board member, in
cluding Pilliod, must be notified in
writing. The issue would then be
brought to a vote one month later, and
it would take two-thirds of the board
members to remove Pilliod.
However, almost anything could
happen Saturday. The board is likely
to go into executive session, a private
meeting which allows public bodies to
discuss personnel issues as long as no
votes are taken and no decisions are
made. Several members have also
heard rumors that certain parties may
push for Pilliod’s complete ouster from
the board in the form of an impeach
ment, or suspend the OSA’s bylaws
and demand an immediate vote on the
chairwoman’s recall.
It’s also possible that board mem
bers will levy additional charges
against Pilliod on Saturday, but rep
resentatives remain silent on the
matter — at least publicly.
Finally, if Pilliod were recalled, there
remains no clear leader who would
step up and take her place. And al
though Burns has spearheaded the re
call effort so far, she said she has no
ambitions for Pilliod’s job. Further
more, she cannot take the job because
the OSA board vice chairman, Andy
Saultz, is also from Oregon State. OSA
rules prevent any one school from oc
cupying the top two positions.
Pilliod said no matter what hap
pens Saturday, she’ll continue to
fight hard for Oregon.
“It doesn’t take a title to lobby for
students,” she said.

continued from page 1
message, and it would be nice if it
came more often from men.”
Man-power aside, senior Sayaka
Mimura has contributed plenty of
woman-power to the organization
through hard work and a love of
working with people. Considering
her interest in working within the
Youth Outreach Program this year,
that goes for little people, too.
“I’ve gained a lot of practical, real
world experience at Womenspace,”
she said. “It’s a great opportunity.”
Mimura attended a three-day
training with the organization dur
ing spring term. After learning more
about domestic violence dynamics,
definitions of gender and support
skills for working with traumatized
survivors, Mimura went on to partic
ipate in support services and even
spent some time helping at the Ad
vocacy Center later last year.
The feeling of being able to
change someone else’s life for the
better is what makes it all worth
while for Schaefer.
“It makes me see that dominance
and terror aren’t the only pathways
gaining around the world,” she said.
For those interested students and
community members who are unable
to attend the trainings this month, an
average of three volunteer trainings
are held each year, Schaefer said, so
there usually isn’t too long to wait.
People who are “itching to help” or
who do not prefer direct service work
can always volunteer in the business
office without attending the volunteer
training, she said.
Womenspace is in urgent need of
people who speak Spanish and who
can maintain their volunteer com
mitment during the summer
months. For registration informa
tion, call Nancy Hafner at 485-7262
or visitenddomesticviolence.com.
