While the stage was set for some real student advising and support, funding prevented it from becoming what it could be in its first year. “At the University of Kansas is assigned to a an adviser for their first year, to get their feet on the ground.” said Norman Rose, Assistant Dena of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. “It’s not hard to get the people. Funding is the problem.” Access to libraries The Portland Area Library System was introduced to PSU on Nov. 18. PORTALS gave students access to the libraries at Lewis & Clark College, Multnomah County, Oregon Graduate Institute, Oregon Health Sciences University, Oregon Historical Society, Pacific University, Portland Community College and Washington State University-Vancouver. Ramaley referred to the project as “stone soup.” “The legislature threw in a good bit of cabbage,” she said. “This creates the equivalent of a research library for the metropolitan area.” A drive-by shooting Two students living on campus were shot by a drive-by gunperson on Friday, Nov. 27. Adam Hopper was hit in the right shoulder and his friend James Smith was struck in the wrist. “It was an absolute surprise,” Hopper said. “I didn’t know what happened for about half an hour. I don’t even remember being hit. I looked down at my sweatshirt and there was blood all over it.” Both students were taken to University Hospital, where they were treated and released. Although Portland Police Sergeant Derrick Foxworth said the that usually drive-by shooters know their targets, none of the partygoers said they had any idea who the shooter was.
