Students interested in obtaining an officer’s commission in the United States Air Force upon graduation may join the Air Force Reserve Officers Training Corps (AFROTC) program offered through the Department of Air Force Studies at Oregon State University. Undergraduate credits earned in this program may be transferred to the University of Oregon as elective credits. Students may complete a degree in any field while in the program. There is no cost to the student (other than travel expenses to Oregon State University for classes and activities), and classes are available to fit into individual schedules.

Programs

The following programs are open to qualified students.

Four-Year Program

The four-year program consists of the general military course (six terms of lower-division air force studies courses, including a laboratory each term) and the professional officer course (six terms of upper-division air force studies courses, including a laboratory each term). Four-year cadets attend Field Training (AS 304) for four weeks during the summer before their junior year of college.

Students may enter the freshman class at the start of the fall, winter, or spring terms. Sophomores may enter at the start of the fall term and take the freshman- and sophomore-level courses concurrently.

Before enrolling in the professional officer course during the last two years of the program, the student must meet AFROTC qualification standards and requirements.

Two-Year Program

Entry is competitive. Application should be made early in the fall term of the student’s sophomore year. Participants must attend Field Training (AS 306) for six weeks in the summer before their junior year of college. The curriculum includes six terms of upper-division air force studies courses, including a laboratory each term. Applicants must have two years remaining in college after the field training, which may be undergraduate or graduate work or a combination of the two.

One-Year Program

Information about this new program is available from the department.

Commitments

Students in the four-year program incur no obligation during their first two years in AFROTC unless they are awarded a scholarship. After enrolling in Air Force Leadership and Management (AS 311), the student agrees to accept a commission if it is offered. Scholarship students incur a commitment at the beginning of their sophomore year. Upon accepting their commission, pilots incur an obligation of ten years after completion of pilot training; navigators incur a six-year obligation after initial training, and all others agree to serve for four years after receiving the commission.

Scholarships

Scholarships are available for qualified students. High school students interested in applying should consult their high school counselors in their junior year or early in their senior year. University students in the four-year AFROTC program can compete for scholarships twice a year on the basis of grade-point average, Air Force Officer Qualifying Test scores, SAT scores, and a personal interview. Special scholarship programs are also available to students of selected minority backgrounds or who are majoring in critical-demand areas deemed necessary by the U.S. Air Force. Students receiving scholarships must be able to complete the Air Force ROTC program, receive a degree, and be commissioned before reaching age thirty-one. Each scholarship covers the cost of tuition, laboratory fees, incidental expenses, $600 a year for textbooks, and up to $400 as a monthly stipend.

For students who are not selected for any other scholarship program, the Air Force offers special incentives to students in any academic major during their junior and senior years. More information about these programs is available from Air Force ROTC at Oregon State University.

Allowances, Uniforms, Textbooks

Students enrolled in the professional officer course are paid up to $400 as a monthly stipend. Uniforms and textbooks for both the general military course and professional military course are provided by the Air Force. The University of Oregon offers a discount on room and board for scholarship winners.

Field Training

One summer field-training session is required for Air Force ROTC programs. The one- and two-year programs require six weeks of field training; the four-year program requires four weeks. Students are paid varying amounts for each of these training periods. This pay is in addition to travel pay to and from the field training location.

Standards

Cadets must be U.S. citizens of sound physical condition and high moral character.

Nonscholarship cadets must receive a field training allocation before reaching age thirty to be commissioned as Air Force officers. Cadets designated to attend flight training must receive their commission before reaching age thirty.

Other Educational Opportunities

After completing AFROTC requirements, advanced degrees may be sought by delaying active-duty commitments. Some commissioned officers continue advanced studies through fully funded Air Force Institute of Technology programs. Special provisions are available for medical, law, and meteorology students.

New Programs

The Foreign Study Programs Committee reviews proposals for new programs. Information about recent developments is available from the Office of International Programs.

Internships

University of Oregon students can earn academic credit while they gain career-related work experience overseas. The IE3 Global Internships program is open to juniors, seniors, and master’s degree students who are currently enrolled in a UO degree program. Financial aid, including scholarships, is available.

Study Abroad, Grants and Scholarships

Because students are registered at the University of Oregon while participating in overseas study programs, they are eligible to receive most or all of their UO-awarded financial aid. Grants are available to qualified graduating seniors and graduate students for research, university study, and overseas teaching. Fulbright grant applications must be submitted to the Fulbright program adviser by mid-October. The Office of International Programs has reference books on other overseas scholarship opportunities. For more information, request the pamphlet Scholarships and Loans for Overseas Study and Research.

Study-Abroad Courses

Each subject code below is unique to a single overseas study program; the X88 numbers signify overseas study courses. As in other UO courses, course level is indicated by the first digit in the course number:

1=freshman

2=sophomore

3=junior

4=senior

6=graduate

Participating students register in courses with the subject codes, numbers, titles, and credit ranges shown below. After UO course equivalents are determined, the generic overseas-study information is replaced with appropriate course-level designations, titles, and credits. For example, a junior-level 5-credit course in the history of 19th‑century Australia that was taken at La Trobe University appears on the student’s permanent UO academic record as OLAT 388 HIST: Australia in the 19th Century 5 [credits].

About the Center

The Labor Education and Research Center (LERC) was established at the University of Oregon in 1977 by the Oregon Legislative Assembly on the recommendation of the State Board of Higher Education. It was founded to serve the educational and research needs of Oregon workers and their organizations.

The center serves as a liaison between members of Oregon’s labor community and the state university system. Research and educational programs provide a catalyst for interaction among labor leaders, public officials, arbitrators, labor relations specialists, and members of the academic community.

The center produces educational programs including seminars, conferences, and short courses on campus and throughout the state. It offers training and education to unionists in grievance handling, arbitration, collective bargaining, health and safety, and issues of concern in today’s complex and rapidly changing economy.

The broader labor relations community of arbitrators, mediators, and labor relations professionals is served through LERC’s conferences and programs on public- and private-sector labor law, worker participation, and labor-management cooperation.

Faculty members are engaged in research on current and emerging issues in labor relations and working life. Areas of research include the global economy and the effects of technological change on work, the changing environment and structure of collective bargaining, dispute resolution, and organizing. The center publishes a regular monograph series and occasional working papers.

A workplace health and safety program conducts research on a wide array of issues associated with occupational health and safety and produces research, publications, and programs on that subject.

The center is advised by a committee of representatives from state labor organizations.

Most of the center’s courses are offered without credit. However, workers participating in LERC programs can arrange for academic credit when certain conditions are met.

The center conducts a participatory learning experience for undergraduate students-an intensive internship with Oregon labor unions on research and related projects. Students earn 4 credits each term of the internship.

Students may be eligible to participate in field studies or special seminars through the center. These courses are limited to students who have made acceptable arrangements for study with individual center faculty members; they are subject to the approval of the director. The center’s faculty members work with a student to determine how a LERC course fits into his or her academic program. Faculty members are available to students for consultation related to the center’s interest areas. More information is available from the center.

LERC in Portland. In 1987 a LERC office was opened in the University of Oregon Portland Center, which is described in this section of this catalog. It provides increased service to the metropolitan area through general and specialized programs. A Portland-area committee of labor leaders provides consultation about program offerings. The University of Oregon Portland Center is located at 722 S.W. 2nd Avenue in Portland; telephone (503) 725-3295.

The Labor Education and Research Center is a member of the United Association for Labor Education and the Pacific Northwest Labor History Association.

About the Libraries

The University of Oregon Libraries supports the instructional and research programs of the university, providing traditional library services as well as emerging digital services. The range of support provided to the faculty and students is broad, including reference and research assistance, access to collections, interlibrary loan and reserve reading programs, instructional services, access to computers and electronic resources, instructional technology support and training, media-rich classroom facilities, and wireless access.

The UO Libraries, an Association of Research Libraries member, houses the largest research collection in the state, with more than 2.6 million volumes and 18,800 journal subscriptions, both in print and electronic format. Extensive holdings of manuscripts, microforms, CDs, DVDs, phonograph records, films, videotapes, slides, maps, and state, federal, and international documents complement the core collections. To meet the growing demand for digital library services, the UO Libraries is actively expanding its digital holdings and forging partnerships to increase access to digitized collections.

Facilities and Resources

University of Oregon Libraries comprises Knight Library, four on-campus branch libraries, and two off-campus branch libraries. On-campus libraries include the John E. Jaqua Law Library, located in the Knight Law Center; the Science Library, located in the science complex; the Mathematics Library, in Fenton Hall; and the Architecture and Allied Arts Library, in Lawrence Hall. Reference service is provided in all campus libraries. Off-campus libraries include the Loyd and Dorothy Rippey Library at the Oregon Institute of Marine Biology in Charleston, Oregon, and the Portland Architecture Library, which will expand to serve architecture, journalism, and other academic programs when the new University of Oregon in Portland facility opens in 2008. For library hours, call (541) 346-3054 or consult the website.

Knight Library and the Science Library each house an Information Technology Center equipped with computer facilities containing a mix of Windows, Macintosh, and X-terminal workstations for the use of UO students, faculty, and staff. Students may check out laptop computers and reserve library study rooms.

The library’s website is an excellent starting point from which to explore myriad information resources. With front-page search capabilities, the website gives users access to the library’s online catalog, which is constantly updated with information about the circulation status of library materials, new books and book orders, and journal availability. Patrons can search numerous online periodical indexes, newspapers, e-books, and e-journals. An integrated FindText service allows patrons to easily locate the full text of e-journal articles during a search.

The website also provides a connection to Summit, a union catalog of the Orbis Cascade Alliance, a consortium of thirty-three public and private college and university libraries in the Pacific Northwest. A Summit search retrieves information on any of the 27 million items held in the cumulative collections of all member libraries. Material borrowed through Summit arrives by courier within three days.

Services

In addition to delivering traditional services, the library provides extensive digital services, including convenient access to a growing collection of digitized print and nonprint material. The library’s catalog of digital collections offers search and access capabilities for digitized holdings made available through several recent technology initiatives.

Other services include assisting faculty members in developing research and instructional projects with digital and multimedia components through the library’s Center for Educational Technologies; managing and maintaining the UO Scholars’ Bank, an online archive of the scholarly output of the campus community; and administrative support for Blackboard, the university’s online course management system.

The library’s instructional program includes technology workshops on demand, in-class presentations by librarians, and credit courses on research and information access.

The library provides a full range of instructional technology services, including instructional and promotional television services, interactive television, satellite uplink and reception, graphic art services for conventional and electronic presentations, and instruction and consulting on educational technology for faculty and graduate teaching fellows.

Knight Library is home to a learning commons and several media-rich classrooms, including the Reed Seminar Room, the Edmiston classroom, the Proctor classrooms, and the Information Technology Center classroom. The library also provides scheduling and maintenance for instructional technology equipment in more than one hundred classrooms across campus.

Library services and facilities are accessible to patrons with disabilities. Staff members at service desks in each library can provide details about relevant services. For more information, call the liaison for patrons with disabilities, (541) 346-1818.

Borrowing

UO faculty and staff members and students who are currently enrolled or registered may borrow library materials from the general collections and some restricted collections; use electronic or hardcopy materials on course reserves; borrow books, videos, and microforms from libraries throughout the world; and request online delivery of articles from journals not owned by the University of Oregon. Faculty members and distance-education students may request electronic delivery of articles from journals owned by the university. They also may request that library books be delivered for pickup at any UO branch library, view their library accounts and renew their books at the library’s website, use the computer labs located inside the libraries, and borrow on-site at any of the libraries with which the university has reciprocal lending agreements.

Oregon residents who are sixteen years and older may apply for borrowing privileges under the Oregon Card program. Current members of the UO Alumni Association also enjoy borrowing privileges.

Talk with a library staff member at any checkout desk or visit the UO Libraries website for information on fines and other charges for overdue or damaged items.

History

Although the University of Oregon opened its doors in 1876, an official library was not established until 1891, when Henry Villard donated a book collection valued at $1,000. As collections grew during the next twenty years, the library moved to progressively larger quarters in various locations. In 1905 the legislature appropriated funds for a new library building, now Fenton Hall. The building was completed in 1907, and a fireproof stack annex was added in 1913.

Knight Library was designed by Ellis F. Lawrence and constructed in 1937. The facade has been described as “exotic, . . . a combination of modernized Lombardy and Greco-Roman with art deco details.” The building contains exceptionally fine exterior and interior decorative work, including the fifteen stone heads by Edna Dunberg and Louise Utter Pritchard, ornamental memorial gates by O. B. Dawson, carved wooden panels by Arthur Clough, and two large murals painted by Albert and Arthur Runquist. The 1937 building and the quadrangle it faces are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Additions to Knight Library were constructed in 1950 and 1966. During a third expansion and renovation project, a 132,000-square-foot addition was completed in 1992, and substantial renovation of the existing building was completed in 1994.

About ROTC

The U.S. Army supports Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) programs at colleges and universities throughout the country. Students who take military science courses may also participate, by contractual arrangement with the Department of the Army, in the process that leads to a commission. Each cadet must take, in addition to military science courses, a course in military history and in written communication. Most of these courses count toward general-education group requirements for a bachelor’s degree.

The U.S. Army sponsors two-, three-, and four-year federal scholarships, awarded competitively by the Army to students who seek a commission. It is possible for undergraduate students to obtain a commission through either a two-, three-, or four-year program of instruction. Graduate students who meet age requirements and have two academic years remaining at the UO may also pursue a commission through ROTC. Students interested in pursuing a commission, a scholarship, or both should contact the department.
