State Flags Should be Changed Why redesigning bori

State Flags Should be Changed
Why redesigning boring flags is important
By: J.J. Christensen

In Maine, amongst all the local state ordinances being voted on, is “Question 5, State Flag Referendum.” This referendum is on changing their state flag from the standard “Seal on a Bedsheet” design to a flag more unique and representative of Maine as a whole.
…
I am, broadly, in favor of states updating their flags. I think that the current flags that represent—say, Oregon—are indistinct and muddled into a vague mass of different blue shades when shown alongside each other. Creating new flags that not only better represent a state’s heritage and culture but are also more visually appealing would help people feel a deeper connection and pride with that state. Regional identities in the U.S. are hard to maintain as it is and are made all the more difficult to maintain when states and regions are devoid of good, interesting symbolism.

Creativity and the Brain
By: Sarah Applin

The Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Association at PSU hosts Brains on Crafts every Wednesday, bringing the PSU community together to explore how the brain responds to creativity—complete with food! The Neuroscience Association connects students across the university and between research development.

“Using art as a way to engage people in science is a helpful way of understanding things that have been historically taught to us in really binary ways.”—Sam Mutschler-Aldine, Science Officer in the Neuroscience Association

Practicing Self-Care at PSU ASPSU hosts weekly Cam

Practicing Self-Care at PSU
ASPSU hosts weekly Camellia Self-Care Group for students
By: Noah Carandanis and Isaiah Burns

Portland State University (PSU) community has undergone its fair share of tumultuous events in recent years. As a largely commuter campus, it can be difficult to find spaces where one can process hardships and trauma that occur at PSU. Mental health challenges and grief encountered downtown do not need to be faced alone.

The Associated Students of Portland State University’s (ASPSU) Mental Health Awareness Ad-Hoc Committee is holding the Camellia Self-Care Group from Nov. 6 to Nov. 27. The group is committed to providing a space for students to process any grief or mental health struggles they may be experiencing.

“We saw a strong need for spaces like these, where students can come together and feel free to share their feelings in a supportive, safe environment. Everyone has things going on in their daily lives that impact their well-being, and we wanted to create a place where students can address these feelings without judgment - letting them know that there are people who are willing to listen and care for them.”—Karen Agustin-Paz—an ASPSU Senator

Letter to the Editor Lack of Voice in Ethnic Clean

Letter to the Editor
Lack of Voice in Ethnic Cleansing

Editor’s Note: The perspectives and opinions printed in this Letter to the Editor are the views and statements of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the positions of Portland State Vanguard or its editorial staff. Some claims have not been independently verified by PSU Vanguard.

Dear Editor in Chief

My name is Endalu, a Master of Public Health Student at the OHSU-PSU School of Public Health. I would like to let you know that this past week has been a difficult week for me because back in Ethiopia where I was born and raised and now my family members live, villages were ransacked by a rebel group called Oromo Liberation Army (OLA). Believed to be a paramilitary force, they killed more than 35 innocent people, burned down more than 65 houses and many livestock just 7 days ago. In this vicious attack conducted in the middle of the night, my ethnic group, the Sodo-Gurage (original name: Kestane), are a target. The OLA has been killing the Kestanes here and there in small numbers (2-5 civilians) for the last 2-3 years, but not in such a scale as happened last week. The OLA believes in eliminating the Kestanes and claiming their land.
