Community science and its ripple effects The benef Community science and its ripple effects
The benefits of public engagement in science
By: Cameron Rodriguez

Community scientists involve the public in engaging with the development of science. The increased care and observation of our environment has several practical benefits for the development of science and the improvement of the environment. A method of this observation is through investigative data collection along streams to monitor species and water conditions.

Some people may be skeptical about the quality of this data, but with the added workforce and increased sample size, any mistakes community scientists might make are rendered insignificant. “We have so many collectors around the northwest and beyond [that] even if we have a lot of second graders and people who are just learning how to do this, what happens is the data really gets averaged out,” said Rick Reynolds, manager at The River Mile (TRM) network.

Slide 2:
Ultimately, does this kind of column favor a power dynamic wherein the policing function of a community sets the narrative? It literally takes a page out of that book. Does an emphasis on “crime”—whether actual or its perceived potential—only serve to justify further policing, as well as a culture of fear and a perspective of “us” vs “them”? 

Might it further an oppressive narrative that only sees safety as something to be achieved through more policing instead of through manifestations of an ethic of solidarity and care, which are the foundation of a lasting safety that is accessible to everyone? Ultimately, the column is tied to these systemic issues and larger conversations in the PSU community and beyond.

Slide 3:
I acknowledge and regret my mistakes related to this column and their effects and I wish I could go back and do things differently. I move forward with a purpose to continue reflecting, understanding and repairing.

And I wholeheartedly and humbly apologize to those fellow community members who were negatively impacted. My gratitude overflows to the person who commented on the column–it was in their action to speak up that opened up the possibility to address this.

“There’s gonna be a lot of challenges that come along our way, so just being there for each other and supporting each other in our own challenges, whether it’s in running or outside of running,” said PSU Cross-country athlete Zach Grams.

The 2023 season heralds a transformative phase for Portland State’s cross-country team. There’s evidence of a significant shift in team dynamics and approach. Bolstered by new coaching leadership and a renewed dedication to unity, this team of athletes is gearing up to make a splash at the Big Sky Conference.

“I’m not trying to project any sort of narrative,” Kell said. “I don’t want to have an overt perspective on anything… Anything that I create is a self-portrait in a way, but also anyone that’s viewing that artwork—the narrative that they glean from it is a reflection of them.”

One Grand Gallery is currently exhibiting Kell’s illustrations under the title Mirrors. The viewer’s relative perception of the works centers on the show’s title, wherein interpreting the art requires introspection.

“I’m very concerned about the safety for all of our campus community,” Cudd said. “It’s a complicated issue, and it’s one where we need to work together. I’ve spoken with Chief Halliburton [on] his views about safety on campus and the decision to rearm the police, and I think he is very committed to finding solutions, so that all of our students and faculty and staff can feel safe and feel that they belong as well... I see this as an ongoing community conversation and a very important one.”

 “Just knowing that we're working for each other, continually making movements and playing off each other, and just continuing to bring a bunch of energy up top," said Elle Frazier—the midfielder and forward for the Portland State womens soccer team

The transition to the 4-4-2 formation represents a strategic choice aimed at providing the team with greater control and stability on the field. In this setup, the team deploys two banks of four players with two forwards leading the charge. The additional midfielder in the formation contributes to a more compact defensive unit, making it challenging for opponents to penetrate.
