Paben: Emerald has a long
history at the University

publishing five days a week.
• During the 1953-54 school year,
the Emerald office moved from a tem
porary hut near the journalism school,
where it had been since the 1947-48
school year, to another temporary hut
near Deady Hall. In 1954-55, the
Emerald moved to the third floor of
the then-new Allen Hall.
• Emerald reporter Janet O’ Dell
became the first female ever to cover
a game from the Hayward Field press
box when she covered an Oregon
Oregon State football game there on
Nov. 30,1963.
• In May 1966, Emerald reporter An
nette Buchanan authored an article
that had seven anonymous sources
discussing their drug use. In June, the
Lane County district attorney subpoe
naed Buchanan, requesting the names
of the sources, but Buchanan refused
and was fined $300 for contempt of
court. The Supreme Court later refiised
to hear the case, which became the ba
sis for Oregon’s current Shield Law.
• Because of the removal of a Uni
versity of Washington editor by the
school administration amid anti-war
protest coverage, 1969-70 Emerald
Editor Paul Brainerd approached the
University administration to draw up a
papers for an independent newspaper.
In April 1971, the Oregon Daily Emer
ald Board of Directors was created.
University President Robert Clark
signed the documents creating the
board. On June 29, 1971, the board
created the Oregon Daily Emerald Pub
lishing Company Inc., which was in
corporated under the provision of the
Oregon Nonprofit Corporation Act in
October, making the paper fully inde
pendent. In November, the Emerald
moved its offices to its current location
in the EMU to further separate itself
from the University.
• In fall 1996, the Emerald cele
brated 25 years of independence with
its first alumnus reunion.
• The Emerald celebrated its 100th
year of publishing in fall 1998 with
an alumnus reunion.
There hangs a list of former editors
on the wall of the editor office that
goes all of the way back to W.C.
Nicholas in 1909-10. Now, I hope you
can see why I’m truly honored and
excited to be on that list.
That’s what the summer months
meant to me.

his duties, or when the person refuses
to obey a lawful order of the officer.
This charge often arises when stu
dents question an officer’s actions.
Comments like “Get out of my
house!” or “I know my rights! You
can’t search me!” can quickly esca
late to a Class A Misdemeanor.
Your best course of conduct when
confronted by police is to observe
your right to remain silent, admit
nothing, remain calm and let things
get sorted out in the calm light of day
with a lawyer at your side.
Knowing that the Party Patrol has
adopted a zero-tolerance stance on
underage drinking, you should ex
hibit extreme caution around under
age drinkers. If you are underage, do
not drink or allow yourself to be
around places where alcohol is
served. If you are over 21, do not al
low any minors on the premises and
adhere closely to OLCC requirements
for handling kegs. Your mere pres
ence where alcohol is illegally served
could result in a criminal charge
against you. While the criminal
charge may not hold up in court, you
will still bear the burden of numer
ous court appearances, possible trial
and the threat of jail and/or fines of
hundreds of dollars if you lose.
Remember that the attorneys of
ASUO Student Legal Services are here
to help you at little or no charge. Come
to see us before your next party if you
want to discuss strategies for avoiding
police conduct. Or see us afterwards if
things go bump in the night. Just re
member that in the heat of the mo
ment, police can and will use physical
force to accomplish their goals.
So please, be careful out there.
Laura Fine is an attorney with ASUO
Legal Services.
