The surprising Greek life on the Park Blocks PSU’s fraternities and sororities navigate being ‘Greek” at a commuter school By: Noah Carandanis While not having the same footprint on campus as those at University of Oregon or Oregon State University, PSU has a handful of fraternities and sororities on campus that provide a social outlet for students from diverse backgrounds and life experiences. Being situated in downtown Portland on a commuter campus presents unique challenges and opportunities to Greek organizations. PSU Vanguard spoke with the Theta Epsilon chapter of the fraternity Kappa Sigma along with the Delta Omicron chapter of the sorority Alpha Chi Omega. … With PSU’s commuter school culture at times providing a chilling effect on socialization on campus, Greek organizations can provide a sense of community for students during their time downtown. “We’re really big on just community. This is a commuter school, guys don’t come here to [party], we are trying to make it a community that will have your back. We try to invest our time and resources into programs that we believe they give back to the campus of our specific university.”—Antonio Veaudry—the PSU Kappa Sigma Chapter President #portlandstate #portlandnews #portlandstateparking #portlandstateuniversity #pdxnews #pdxedu #psuvikings #psuvanguard #studentnews #studentnewspaper #sorority #fraternity #commuterschool #greeklife #socialoutlet #community #friendship #connection Slide 1 & 3: Members of Kappa Sigma fraternity pose for a picture.

Cheers to Health? Understanding the Science Behind Cheers to Health? Understanding the Science Behind Beer’s Benefits and Risks By: Anish Arumugam & Vaishnavi Srinath According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), excessive alcohol consumption is linked to a range of health issues—from liver disease to increased cancer risk and cognitive impairment. … Although beer isn’t likely to become a go-to workout drink, some research suggests that—in moderation—it might not be harmful to athletes. Certain compounds found in beer—such as polyphenols and antioxidants—can help combat the oxidative stress caused by intense exercise. “There’s something to be said about the psychological benefits of moderate drinking, particularly in a communal setting. It helps people relax, de-stress and even bond with one another—which can improve mental well-being.”—John Wilson, an Assistant Professor of Food Science and Human Nutrition at Colorado State University #portlandstateuniversity #portlandstate #pdxedu #psu #portlandstatenewspaper #psuvanguard #studentnews #portlandsciencenews #portlandscience #portlandoregon #beer #consumption #drinking #destress #research #benefits #healthrisks Slide 1: Two mugs full of beer, one light and one dark.

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. #portlandstateuniversity #portlandstate #pdxedu #pdxopinion #portlandstatevikings #portlandnewspaper #studentnewspaper #psuvanguard #redesign #state #stateflag #change #reflective #identities #connection #newflags Slide 1: Illustration by Abby Raymundo/PSU Vanguard
