Centennial Oral History Project
Oral Histories, 1982-1988
The records of the Centennial Oral History Project were partially processed in May of 1986 by Barbara Kovarik Gahl. The Centennial Oral History Project Index was compiled in 1988 by Sara Addis Colbert and Christine Hadlow. This collection is a compilation of the following accessions: UA 84-33, UA 84-37, UA 85-05, UA 85-08, UA 85-12, UA 85-16, UA 85-27, UA 85-28, UA 85-45, UA 86-02, UA 87-17, UA 87-30.
The Washington State University Centennial Oral History Project (COHP) was formally established with a $5,000 grant from the WSU Foundation in 1983. From this beginning, COHP coordinator Linda Lilles initiated a network of volunteer interviewers and interviewees from the various facets of the University community, including alumni, retirees, faculty, staff, and administration of long standing. Since the initial grant, the Office of Centennial Planning and the History Department have funded the COHP, with the bulk of the program under the leadership of Keith Williams. Coordinator from August, 1983 to November, 1987, Williams built up the collection to include 150 interviews with as many as 80 volunteers.
The COHP operates under a "unit history" format whereby each university department or unit has been asked to participate so that a balanced collective history emerges. Forty-five departments/units are represented in the collection. An important emphasis of COHP in addition to departmental/unit histories has been the 25 Golden Grad interviews, undertaken from 1984 to 1987, during the 50th anniversary alumni celebrations held each spring. By the end of the Centennial Oral History Project in June, 1988, 174 interviews have been processed and transcribed. This is a significant feat, as the Oral History Office has no interviewing staff and relies soley upon volunteers to conduct the interviews. The resulting interviews have been made available to Centennial historians and any others who wish to research or just reminisce.
This collection is divided into three series. The main series (Box 1-20) consists of one-on-one interviews, organized alphabetically. The second series lists the Golden Grad interviews- group interviews with returning alumni (Box 21-22); these are organized by year, then then within each year by last name with interviews conducted with groups of individuals filed afterwards by an arbitrary group number.
Each interview in the first series has been transcribed, but due to budget constraints, most of them have not been edited. If in doubt on a name or years, consult Campus Directories or Catalogs in Holland Library. Also, remember that these interviews are informal conversations where errors in grammar sometimes occur. The description outlines basic information--the interviewer, interviewee, number of tapes, interview date, Manuscripts, Archives, and Special Collections (MASC) location, any additional material filed with the originals, and a brief sketch of topics discussed during the interview.
An index to departments and subjects exists in print form at WSU Libraries: Manuscripts, Archives, and Special Collections. In addition to information presented here, the print index also contains a subject index and a university department index.
One additional Centennial Oral History was completed too late to be included, and is now held separately as CT 23: Centennial Oral History Interview with C.B. Jones, 1990. Another interview, with James Elder, was discovered in another collection in 2011 and moved to this one. During digitization of these in 2013, it was realized that a 1970 History of WSU's Physics Program roundtable was included in the Golden Grads cassettes in box 21; its provenance is unknown but it is speculated that it might have come as supporting material to Dr. Band's interview (Box 1).
The majority of the audio recordings from this collection have been digitized and can be found online in theĀ WSU Oral Histories Project Digital Collection.

Kevin Allen, host of a weekly call-in show on Ancient Faith Radio, interviewed Fr. Michael Butler over the weekend "about how we might address the environmental issues that confront us today by appealing to the authentic Orthodox Tradition." Fr. Michael is the author, with Prof. Andrew Morriss, of the 2013 Acton monograph Creation and the Heart of Man: An Orthodox Christian Perspective on Environmentalism.
In their April 23 commentary "Christian Environmentalism and the Temptation of Faux Asceticism" the authors note:
The ascetical tradition of the Orthodox Church includes many practices: prayer, fasting, almsgiving, keeping vigil, inter alia. They are the active part of the spiritual life, our voluntary cooperation with the grace of God. As such, it is important that we not be tempted to use the ascetical practices of the Church for ends they were not designed to serve. Thus, we need to be careful of "environmental consciousness" masquerading as authentic spiritual practice. Moreover, we must keep in mind that it is the believer's practice of asceticism, not asceticism qua asceticism, that is important. (more…)

Perceived Conflict Of Interest Is A Slippery Slope
To the Readers' Forum:
I am writing to address the issue of County Legislator Lori Cornell recusing herself from the vote on the sale of the County Home due to a "conflict of interest." For those that don't know, her grandmother was in the facility.
Let me start off by saying that I am in favor of selling the County Home and that is just one of several issues that Legislator Cornell and I do not agree on. But I do not feel she should recuse herself from the vote.
First and foremost, there would be no change in the result on the sale of the home by her abstaining. More "yes" votes are needed to complete the sale. But my issue is more with the slippery slope of perceived conflicts of interest and abstentions. We are elected to represent the best interest of the taxpayers. From time to time, our personal feelings on a topics will conflict with what we know is the will of the people we represent. We have a duty to either vote according to the will of our constituents or explain why we are voting against it. It's the responsibility of the voters to decide whether or not the overall job we are doing is worthy of us continuing to serve.
The County Legislature rarely votes to allow a legislator to abstain from a vote. Casting a "yes" or "no" vote at all times is absolutely the correct thing to do. Giving legislators an out allows them to hide from difficult issues. That is not what we are elected to do.
At a recent town hall meeting, Congressman Tom Reed explained how Congress votes. Once a vote begins, they have anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes to enter their vote. A tally board shows them how the votes are going. Mr. Reed does his research and, to his credit, usually casts his votes right away. Yet there are many representatives that wait to see how the votes are going so they can then decide to take the easy way out if a piece of legislation already has enough votes to pass or fail. That is politics at its worst. It's also irresponsible and dishonest.
Abstaining from a vote, in my opinion, should only occur when the outcome of the vote has a direct connection to the legislator's personal financial interests. That is clearly a matter of ethics. If we stretch the definition of a conflict to include personal feelings on the topic and other arms-length situations, we will be allowing our elected officials to hide behind those excuses.
You may disagree with Mrs. Cornell's vote on the County Home. But at the end of the day, legislators must take responsibility for their record and the voters will decide if their representative is serving the best interests of the people.
George Borrello

Frequently bought together
Spherical roller bearings are dedicated to extremely severe applications and must support high loads, severe misalignment, contaminated environments, shocks, and vibrations. NTN-SNR sphericals feature the industry's highest load rating: a full 18% higher than a standard spherical roller bearing. This level of quality means at least a 75% extension of service life. The performance of these sphericals is achieved through the use of very high quality raw materials and optimized rolling element geometry. The unique design also leads to: Reduced friction torque (as much as 30% less), offering lower operating temperature, with lower power and lubricant consumption. Appreciably increased operating speed, allowing an extended scope of applications. High temperature capacity of up to 200°C (392°F) for metallic cage bearings. Dimensional stability is ensured by a specific heat treatment. A +/- 0.5° misalignment capability, without reducing the load capacity, and up to 1° 30' in case of low loads.

Heavy Duty 54 Inch Wide Oilcloth By The Yard
Rated 4.7 out of 5Â by 7 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Potter Oil Cloth Solution Soil was falling through the cracks on my work bench when I was working with my plants. I immediately thought of oil cloth. It's durable and looks great. I used closely spaced thumb tacks to secure it to the table. Perfect solution! November 11, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by JPL Strong and beautiful The bird pattern was more beautiful than the pictures. I am using the cloth to cover the top and sides of a buffet I keep in my garden patio for storage. Potted plants are on top. The oil cloth can take the spill off from watering. And the oil cloth is great for repelling rain splash. The birds are beautiful and the buffet does its storage work while looking great. November 9, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5Â by jado Very Beautiful But Very Disappointing Quality! I bought 2 yards of the Foliage "oilcloth" last August to use as a table cloth. I loved the pattern and have been using oil cloth on my table, with excellent results, for years. I bought the yardage instead of the tableclth hoping for extra inches of width for a wide table. The fabric is beautiful! Unfortunately, it is not as sturdy as all the other oil cloth yardage that I have bought and used. The underside appears to be fabric,-unlike the other oil cloth yardage, and was tearing at the table corners within 2 months. The top needs to be protected with placemats to keep it from being scored by normal activity and is easily stained. I believe this is actually laminated fabric, not oil cloth. This fabric is twice as expensive as the oil cloth that it replaced, but is definitely not as durable. Still love the pattern, but definitely not worth the price plus shipping! February 21, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Auntie Tutu Genuine 54" Wide Oilcloth by-The-Yard I've purchased this material in a table cloth already made and hemmed. I love love love the material but the odd sized table that I have is not standard so I've decided to make my own. I also like aprons made from this material. However I would like to request a new design dark green to a yellowed green fern pattern on white. (Reason: ferns are found all over the world and food and even patterned dishes look fantastic on green leaf patterns. It would have the eco-friendly look so many folks are gravitating to nowadays.) Aloha Auntie Tutu March 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Titletown Makes a great gift for a British wife Not use to seeing items such as this in Alabama. This item and many others remind my wife of her home in London. Really cheers her up as she has not been home in a while. January 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Nonni LOVE this fabric I got this because my 2 grandchildren are always coloring and using markers at the kitchen table which is now stained. This fabric is heavy-duty and wipes clean in an instant and can be cut to any size. The red/white checked looks lovely in my Red country kitchen! May 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by flyingchina A Christmas Tradition Saved! Every year at Christmas I make poteca for my sister and brothers. It's a sweet yeast dough pastry that has to be rolled out to 20"x30" before the filling of ground walnuts, brown sugar, butter, and flavorings is spread on, rolled up, and baked. Our grandmother and mother would make it every year and since they are both gone now, it's up to me to carry on the tradition, which I love. Last year, there was no poteca because by the time I discovered my husband had thrown out my pastry cloth instead of washing it, it was too late to do anything about it. This year, however, I got smart. I ordered a one yard length of oilcloth from Vermont Country Store and let me tell you, it is the perfect pastry cloth. It has just enough "grab" that you don't have to use much flour, but at the same time the dough slides over the surface without sticking. And clean up is a breeze. Thank you so much, Vermont Country Store, for saving a tradition and a marriage! December 30, 2012

Reaction: FIndia/Williams/Sauber/STR
Reaction to the US Grand Prix from the Force India, Williams, Sauber and STR teams.

Force India:
Nico Hulkenberg: "Another tough race but very satisfying to have so many good battles and score another four points. I think we squeezed the maximum from the car and should be pleased with what we achieved. For the first few laps we looked very strong, but after lap ten the tyres started to fade away. When we switched to the hard tyres we were not so competitive so it was just a case of pushing hard to stay in the points. The last few laps were not easy because I was getting massive pressure from the Williams pair, who were very quick through sector one. They had the advantage of DRS and it was not easy to keep them behind me. There was quite a bit of fighting but I managed to stay ahead."
Paul di Resta: "I made a good start and for the first few laps we were in quite a strong position and moving forward with good lap times. Maybe we waited too long before pitting because I became vulnerable to Senna after my stop and was struggling on cold tyres with tyre warm-up. I couldn't keep Senna behind me and then I had the same situation with Maldonado. I was fighting a lot of oversteer in the car and made an error in turn 19, lost the rear, and spun. I was just trying a bit too hard to keep the cars behind me. That gave me some flat spots on my tyres so I had to pit for a second time. From there it was difficult to fight back because it was a clear one-stop race."
Pastor Maldonado: "After today's race I'm happy for the team, for the Venezuelan fans and for myself. I hope that this will be one of the best racing venues for Formula One. On the first lap I ran wide which meant I had to fight for places throughout but I enjoyed it because it was a good race and we were competitive. At the beginning I lost many places but I managed to recover quite well. On the last lap I was fighting with Hulkenburg but there wasn't enough time to get the place. I am looking forward to the last round in Brazil and we are ready to fight again there."
Bruno Senna: "Unfortunately starting on the dirty side of the grid hurt my race in the early stages as it was quite messy into the first corner. We had good pace though and were overtaking when we needed to. Unfortunately we came out of the pits behind Hulkenberg which was frustrating as he was just quick enough exiting Turn 11 each lap and we couldn't overtake him which damaged my tyres allowing Pastor to catch us both. I knew Pastor would make a move and I wasn't going to close the door as we needed the points for the team. Overall, it was a pretty difficult race but it was good to end with both cars in the points which is what we are aiming for."
Sergio Perez: "My start worked really well and the first laps were good too. I had a good pace, and the car was really quick, but then around lap ten I had a problem with the brakes. The pedal became very long and I had big difficulties before every corner. This cost a lot of time and so we didn't manage to get any points here. Regardless of the result it was a great experience to race here in front of so many Mexicans. The COTA is a great track and I hope we can have this Grand Prix on the calendar for many years. Now we will get ourselves together for the final attempt to improve to fifth place in the Constructors' World Championship next week."
Kamui Kobayashi: "For the entire weekend here I had warm up problems and didn't get the tyres to work. We have to find out why this was. The grip level only increased in the last laps of the race at the end of a very long stint with the hard tyres. This was crazy and I do hope very much we are stronger in Sao Paulo to finish the season on a high."
Toro Rosso:
Daniel Ricciardo: "I think I overtook more people in this race than in any other in my whole career! It was particularly fun at Turn 1, which became a favourite passing spot for me, especially one lap when I managed to pass two cars at once. Until today, the whole weekend had not gone that smoothly and of course, I was particularly disappointed with how qualifying went yesterday. Because of that, I was even more determined to go well today. I gave it everything I've got this afternoon, although it was not enough to finish in the points, but twelfth was probably the best result we could have got today. At the start, the dirty side was indeed very slippery and the two Marussias got ahead and I touched with one of them. I thought I'd damaged the front wing, but I managed to keep going as the car was okay and after that I think we got the maximum out of the car. It was very competitive on the Option, but once I switched to the Prime it seemed that tyre also worked better than expected, which meant I lost some of the advantage we had hoped to have by running a very long first stint. Deep down, I know I did my best."
Jean-Eric Vergne: "I got a really good start and I had about a tenth of a second to decide whether to go to the left or the right going into the first corner. Everyone seemed to be going right, so I went left aiming for the inside of the hairpin, as I was much quicker. But it didn't pay off, because I lost many positions and got stuck behind other cars and therefore could not warm up my tyres properly. Despite this, I was able to fight and make up some positions. Unfortunately, the suspension broke and the team told me to park the car rather than risk bringing it back. A shame, as this new circuit is fun to race on."
