Be Good. Be Orange.

What does it mean to Be Orange? Every student at Oregon State probably has a different definition of what it means to “Be Orange”. There is no straight-line answer or even just a few simple values that can sum it up. To Be Orange is to be a part of Oregon State University and to grow and learn as a student and person, along with everyone else that is a part of this university. Being Orange to me means you hold true the values of professionalism, ambition and most importantly respect and compassion for others and yourself.

As college students, of course we are attending Oregon State to learn and prepare ourselves for our upcoming career or next chapter in our life. A big part of being a component of the professional world is professionalism. As a beaver, when I leave this university and take my resume to my future employers, I want them to know that by being an Oregon State graduate, I am a professional and reliable candidate.

Ambition is another trait of importance, not only in the professional world, but also in everyday life. An ambitious person is someone who goes out and gets what they want. To me this is an important trait to learn in life. Everything worth doing takes hard work and dedication.

To me, Being Orange really comes down to having respect and compassion for others. Oregon State is a pretty diverse community and you are often put in situations where you are around cultures and people you aren’t familiar with. Learning to respect other people, no matter who they are or what their beliefs are, is a very important trait to posses not only as a person but also as a part of a community.

Being part of the OSU community is something that isn’t short lived. Whether you are currently a student, staff members, alumni or simply a graduate you are still a beaver. The values that you learn and withhold from your time here are instilled in you and will go with you for the rest of your life. To Be Orange isn’t just a phase, it’s a way of life. What does Being Orange mean to you?

In the world of Oregon State University, those in charge convey a certain message of what being a member of Oregon State University (OSU) means. Plastered around the campus, brochures, and the webpage are the values that are advertised to be those of the entire OSU population. The people in charge of our education tell us what to learn by setting certain requirements for a degree and how we should be by the advertised values that encourage us to “Be Orange.” But, what does being orange really mean? If you were looking at OSU from the outside you would think that it takes the form of the university’s core values of accountability, diversity, integrity, respect, and social responsibility along with other values advertised of discovery, innovation, problem solving, and sustainability (Oregon State University). This all sounds great and I’m sure that many people in the OSU community have some of these values, but the problem comes when it is expected that all members of the OSU community have all these values at all times.
First, they are values that have been handed down from previous members and can therefore run the risk of not feeling like our own. Second, it can feel like just another thing you’re being told to be which can make some members rebel even if they agree with the values. In other words, issues arise when others define a value for another. One must wonder if it is even ethical for OSU to tell you and others what your values are. Imagine if instead of defining what our values are OSU taught and encouraged us to be ethical, independent, and compassionate. If OSU did this then I’m sure that many of us would choose the values that they advertise on our own and would therefore be more likely to act on them.
While I share these values advertised by OSU, I do not think that they are all equally important which is how it seems from the advertising of these values by OSU. There is the same emphasis of each value. There is the same visibility of each value. You can see the paths at OSU covered in banners saying, “We care for all,” and “You define innovation.” The seemingly most common banner states the, “We are the nation. Beaver nation,” and these banners tell us what to be and what we are while simultaneously not giving us much of a choice. I feel like some of the values that have been separated from another can actually be encompassed by another value, such as integrity encompassing accountability. This is because I would say that to be accountable you must have integrity because a crucial part of integrity is honesty and to be accountable you must be honest with yourself about a situation to determine if you are or are not accountable for the situation.
I would want “Orange” to mean what is advertised, but that is a vision and not an attainable goal. The reality is that people are fallible and no one is perfect, but it is always a good thing to strive to be something better than you are. It speaks to the reality that if no one thought they could change anything, then no one would try and the world would go downhill fast. An example of this is sustainability. If people only thought about the fact that even if they recycled everything recyclable in their life time it would not even make a dent in pollution, then no one would recycle and the world would be destroyed much sooner than if people still recycled anyway.
A person must decide their own values. The previous statement might seem intuitive, but as you look around OSU and what it means to “Be Orange” you can see that somewhere in the midst of the system this statement has not been addressed. So, the question that should be asked instead of what does it mean to “Be Orange” is why is it defined for us? Why can’t we as students, the greatest population of the OSU community, decide for ourselves what it means to be orange? Why are we constantly told what to be and how to be it? It is time for things to change and students must be encouraged to be ethical, independent, and compassionate or the values that OSU expects of us will never really represent OSU.

Being An Orange…Wait, What?

What does being orange mean to you? What does being orange mean to me? How about President Ray? Asking these questions would surely provoke a wide array of answers, and the beauty of it is, they’re all correct. Being Orange takes on the character of whomever should answer the question, because all of us are representatives of Oregon State University. So, my first task is to find a few representatives of Oregon State, and find out what they associate with Being Orange.

Asking people what they believe it means to Be Orange brought out some answers that I expected, and some I did not. Almost all of the accounts shared a common theme, community. The first individual I asked claimed to not have an overwhelming sense of school pride, but he used the terms belonging, caring, respectful, and also being a part of a community. He claimed that, even though, “OSU is large it still feels welcoming”. The second and third persons used similar phrases, but emphasized the point of ‘embodying the college’ and being involved with Oregon State University.

These are all great ways to describe being Orange, and I am glad that the OSU community associates those terms with the people of this institution. The problem is, the values of the Oregon State community remain undefined with these descriptions. For this, I accessed the Oregon State University Core Values, via the strategic plan, and found that the listed values are accountability, diversity, integrity, respect, and social responsibility. To these, I would personally add professionalism and competency.

Professionalism is a major trait that I associate with Being Orange. We did come to this institution to become professionals, after all. As we make our way into the professional world and begin our careers, we will all have innumerable encounters with people who will only remember us by what we did for them. One example of this is our supererogatory act that we conducted during our fourth portfolio assignment. By performing an act in anonymity, the person that we acted upon knows who we are only by what we did for them. The impression that we leave on those we interact with, good or bad, is not only an impression on us, but everyone who has come before and will come after us at Oregon State University.

Something that I think is very important about Being Orange, and also is an Oregon State University Core Value, is being accountable. The truth of the matter is, you cannot just Be Orange when you feel like doing so, because people see what you do and/or the effects of your actions, even when you think no one is watching.

As I write this I am looking at a bag of oranges, and it just hit me! Being Orange is, in fact, Being An Orange. Before you write me off as crazy, hear me out. To explain myself, let me tell you the three things that I associate with Being An Orange and Being Orange.

The first aspect is the color, orange.  But this isn’t just wearing the color orange, or sporting the Beaver logo to show off your pride, this is more associated with your appearance in general. Being An Orange is looking like an Oregon State Beaver. Having a professional, positive image is something that projects itself onto those we interact with, and it is the thing that people will most readily associate with us. Also, the color orange is widely associated with being a bright, extroverted, and optimistic. To me, this continues to exemplify the feel of Oregon State, associating its members with being active in the OSU community and abroad.

The second important feature about Being An Orange is your shape. Being a well-rounded individual is an important aspect of life in general. In the professional sector, this is the exact reason why all students are required to complete a Bacc-Core course load, which is precisely the reason we are quickly becoming ethicists. This also brings me back to competency.

Lastly, and most importantly, Being An Orange is important because when you peel the skin back, we are, in fact, representative of all of the pieces that consist of Being Orange. Without one of those pieces, we would not be complete inside, and therefor would falter on the outside. So when it is said that Being Orange is being professional, artistic, innovative, competent, active, powerful, influential, etc., it’s true. We as representatives of Oregon State University are all of those things, all at the same time. We are the community of Oregon State, which explains why, even once the skin is peeled off of the orange, all of the pieces still hold their form. The pieces of the Oregon State community hold together strongly, and must be forced apart in order to break it down.

As a part of the Oregon State community it is your responsibility to do not only the right thing for you, but the right thing for everyone associated with our institution. So Be An Orange today. Be professional, be well rounded, and most of all, be all of the pieces that it takes to represent our beloved community. Be Orange.

Being a part of OSU  means being part of a diverse community. Beaver nation is held together through a set of virtues which reflect the character and morals of everyone affiliated with the University. There are many virtues that are identifiable in being orange.

Individuality is exemplified through the phrase, “Be Orange” as it is subjective and holds a different meaning to each person. OSU strives for innovation which is shown through the high expectations set for students as well as our advances in research through many departments in the University. Individuality being used as a tool by harnessing the capability of different perspectives is the most efficient way to accomplish tasks. OSU recognizes that through individuality, we can achieve greatness.

Open mindedness is closely associated with characteristics of individuality as well. Each individual perceives reality differently. As Fisher’s narrative paradigm suggests, we experience life as a protagonist of unique anecdotes that make up our reality. Being part of a tightly knit community that praises individuality requires having an open mind. Accepting other’s differences and realizing that each person distinguishes reality in a distinct way. This is  key to becoming a community and proudly being a part of Beaver Nation. Recently there have been several hate crimes on campus regarding race. The student body was able to stand up and represent a community that glorifies open mindedness as a virtue. Great efforts were made by raising the student body’s voice through social media and an organized march with a simple message: Everyone belongs to OSU, racism does not.

To me, orange means all of these things and more. Being orange requires many virtues in order to succeed as a student. Ambition characterizes the slogan, “be orange” most accurately to me because it encompasses the attributes of a successful student, and a responsible individual. Ambition is exemplified through  the caliber of students that are admitted into the University. The average GPA of entering freshmen is a 3.56, with all states represented. Far flung freshmen from across the nation show determination and ambition to become a part of beaver nation.

Being orange embodies the aspects of being part of OSU. No matter what “Be Orange” means to you, the underlying virtues it holds implement skills and moral values needed for the independent journey preceding our college years.

Some people may ask, what does it mean to be orange? While there are many different answers to the question, I believe one must be proud in order to be orange. Some may feel that orange is just any ordinary color. However, when you look closer, you see the pride these students have for their school. One look at the student section in any sport will tell you what I see. These students have pride and passion in their school, and their yelling and cheering is just evidence that they do. Why would someone paint him or herself orange or wear bright orange? Around Corvallis the answer is usually because of OSU. Here at OSU not only do we have pride in our sports, even though we may not be the best at all of them, but we also have pride in our academics. Even if I see orange outside of school, I feel the pride of being a part of the OSU community because it is a great place to be and grow.
The other day I saw a kid walking through campus with a packet in hand, and he was smiling ear-to-ear shaking that packet. Now we can assume that he did well on a paper or test, and that happiness flying through the air really spreads a positive vibe throughout. That is what I would love to see, because I would love to see there be more pride going around about the academics. When a lot of people think of college, they usually think of frat parties, and (around here) football. I think that more pride and attention should be towards education, since we are here to get a degree and ready ourselves for the world outside of the classroom. However, when I say people should put more pride in their school work I am not saying everyone should go around the campus bragging about the A they got on their physics test. It wouldn’t be the best idea if everyone were egoistic, because then that could lead to putting other students or schools down. I believe in some utilitarianism actions, which is to find what does the largest amount of good, and that is to not only be prideful in ones work, but also find pride in others. I don’t think it’s a good idea to put others down for not being the best at what they do. Instead people should show pride in how their community breaks through educational barriers or growth in academics. Showing pride in one’s fellow students is just as showing growth in one’s self. And I believe OSU does just that. I feel like the pride that OSU shows, in not only their athletics, but also in their academics really shows that we as a school have real pride, and that it why I think that being orange is also being full of pride.

At Oregon State University (OSU), to Be Orange is an honor, a reflection of school values, and a privilege. At a school where “Powered by Orange” is a phrase used and seen almost daily on campus, there are certain values and expectations that go hand in hand with ‘being orange.’ As I began to explore the concept of ‘being orange’ I was surprised at the many values and interpretations that this simple phrase encompassed.

OSU president, Ed Ray, defines Orange through his strategic plan, using the key values to guide us along the path to our final destination in life. He highlights accountability, diversity, integrity, respect and social responsibility as key components in the OSU educational process, and to be successful beyond. President Ray and the OSU community emphasize the importance of ‘being Orange’ not just at OSU but throughout our lives after college. For example, at OSU we practice diversity in order to improve and foster “our ability to welcome, respect, and interact with other people.” Our ability to work well with other people, as we learn at OSU, is an element of ‘Orange’ that we carry for the rest of our lives. ‘Being Orange’ is not about a color or school pride, it is the community, practices and skillset that each student gains and makes them successful for the rest of their lives; that is what ‘being Orange’ is all about.

Taking into consideration the university values and my own personal experiences at OSU, I think that ‘being orange’ encompasses President Ray’s ideals to create a community that promotes leadership and growth both personally and academically. When talking with several of my close friends about values and experiences they have learned and had at OSU, one thing everyone spoke about was the community setting here. To Be Orange, for example, is to be active in your college and university setting because it promotes growth academically but also promotes leadership and communication, both key ethical values that OSU promotes. At OSU, every individual is part of a community; fellow students and faculty are here to support everyone as we grow academically, socially and personally. These are the individuals that will shape the person you become after you leave OSU.

Personally, when I look at OSU and the phrase ‘be orange,’ I think of growth. It is the ethical responsibility of this university to educate its students and prepare them for their respective fields. When I look back at my four years at OSU, I think of where I began and how far I have come today. To me that growth is what makes me a part of the ‘orange’ community. My growth academically, socially, and personally continues to surprise me. The academic knowledge, social connections, and personal confidence that I have gained at OSU to me represent the concept of ‘being orange.’

To ‘be orange’ may vary from person to person, but the core values are the same for everyone. Just as President Ray said of his strategic plan, being orange is a “map of the foreseeable landscape, with some speculation about what’s beyond the horizon.” ‘Being orange’ provides the students the values and skills needed for life, and it provides the community, support and leadership necessary to face what is beyond the horizon.

Be Independent. Be Orange
What does it mean to Be Orange? If one were to ask any student, alumni, or faculty personnel this question the answer would change person to person. Each person who has ever been or is a part of the OSU community has collected their own experience and developed their own definition of what it means to Be Orange. Whether their experience was good or bad, either way a certain set of values is taken away that now defines who that person is before OSU. The value I’ve developed while being an OSU student is independence and along with that a sense of self.
To be independent is to be able to rely, trust, and believe in yourself with each decision you make. As my independence blossomed I began to discover more about myself. I came to OSU because I wanted an experience I knew I wouldn’t be able to get if I stayed and went to college in my hometown. I left because I wanted to explore what it was like to be on my own and to be able to make my own decisions without my parents hovering over my shoulder. Once I got here all I wanted to do was leave because I missed the comfort of home, but now that almost 3 years have gone by I can honestly say that I’m glad I stayed.
College is a whole learning experience, where one can learn not only the skills to excel in a particular career but where one can also learn about what kind of person they want to be. I would like to think that OSU would appreciate being involved in not only helping their students learn what they want to do but also learn who they want to be. Because there is a big difference between what you do and who you are. OSU is associated with many values but whether or not every student leaves with those same values depends on the experience. Leadership, honesty, integrity and pride are just some of the many values the OSU community associates itself with. These are all good values to carry but not values that I’ve learned solely at OSU. I’ve learned these values throughout my life experiences with people and through other situations but my value for independency is strongly linked to my time at OSU.
For myself, I’ve learned that I have to rely, trust and believe that the decisions I make for myself will benefit me in some way or another. I’ve learned a lot of who I am as a person through the relationships I’ve built here at OSU. Who I thought would be the love of my life turned out to be a broken heart but also the biggest lesson I’ve learned so far. I came to the conclusion that I needed to be okay with letting this person go and since I’ve made that decision, although difficult, I trust and believe that it was the right one. I’ve learned what I will tolerate from other people based off of what I know I deserve. If I didn’t stay at OSU I think it would have taken me longer to learn this valuable lesson. I carry this lesson with every new and old relationship I have. In learning more about myself I’ve learned that loving myself before I let other people in is a value in and of itself that I believe to be the most important value anyone can obtain. One could claim that this represents the ethics of care and I would agree. Since being at OSU I’ve learned that having compassion for myself fuels what makes me independent and able to trust myself. And because I am compassionate for myself it makes it easier for me to have compassion for others experiencing times that are difficult because they too are learning their own lessons and their own values that make them the person they were meant to be.

Within the Oregon State University community there are several values that are identified with the campus and beaver life. These include such values as: accountability, diversity, integrity, respect and social responsibility (“Strategic Plan”). These are indeed appropriate values to have when incorporating the entirety of the students within the university. By having these common goals and ideals to that the students can aspire to achieve, it makes the entirety of the university unified.

I personally believe in the values that have been previously listed. However, there is one value that I think is the primary value that represents the OSU community and that is compassion. Though, with this being said, the values that are identified in the OSU Strategic Plan are the backbone to this value of compassion. One cannot have compassion without having integrity or respect. I feel that Oregon State has those qualities. We embrace them during our time on campus and it is my hope that we continue to embody those values after graduation. OSU students practice compassion through our progressive studies in being energy efficient and creating new ways of being environmentally friendly. Examples include minimizing parking spaces to encourage students and faculty to bike, walk or take the bus. Another example is the system of renewable energy in Dixon; having the treadmills wired to produce energy that is reused for campus operations.

To be compassionate, based on my personal definition, is to practice thoughtfulness towards others. In terms of OSU, this means actively being conscious of the environment and being stewards of the earth. Being compassionate is being respectful to those around you, whether human or animal. “OSU’s agricultural programs have received national top-tier rankings from the Chronicle of Higher Education for research, with wildlife science and conservation biology ranking 1st, fisheries science 2nd, botany and plant pathology and forest resources at 5th, and agricultural and resource economics 7th” (“Oregon State ranks 8th best worldwide in agriculture and forestry”). Other scientific research towards our common goals of energy efficiency and compassion towards all life includes the Oregon Sea Grant, which enabled the community to harness power from the ocean waves and wind (“Power from Ocean Waves and Wind”).

Pride is an Aristotelian virtue and I believe that being compassionate encompasses pride. Aristotle states that pride is a man who is and thinks of himself doing great things; in addition, being a Beaver is something worthy of having pride. Pride is having honor and love and loyalty for something that is of importance and within this community, sustainability is considered to be of great importance. We have to embody compassion first, before we can begin to understand and make progressive movements towards sustainability and energy efficiency. I understand why the values of accountability, diversity, integrity, respect and social responsibility are incorporated into the ideals of the university. We have to accept our impact in this world and accept that we all have a role to play in improving the lives of all. In order to do this, we have to accept diversity, practice integrity and respect. We all have a social responsibility to the earth and to each other. But most of all we have to be compassionate to all: we are Beaver Nation!

“Submitted by Jeffrey Hendrix”

Being orange means being a reliable person no matter where I am. Most of the students who attend Oregon State University are enrolled solely for the purpose of getting an education and eventually graduating with a degree. When deciding where to attend college, I was not worried about where I would receive my education. I simply based it off of where I would be able to play on the best baseball team. This strategy may seem like a terrible way to choose a college and plan my education, but baseball has always been my ultimate goal.

As a senior in high school, I was never specifically worried about my education, but rather all my attention was toward the best baseball opportunities. My focus was to become a great baseball player and with time, make money in the big leagues.  The thought of sitting through school for at least four more years did not sound appealing to me at all. However, the thought of playing baseball, being a part of the team and eventually making good money doing what I loved sounded great. Baseball was and still is my greatest passion, and this is why I decided to come to Oregon State. Because of the elite baseball program and the quality men who coach the team, I knew playing for the Beavers would make my dreams a reality.

During my time at Oregon State thus far, I have started to define what being orange means to me. Being orange means being a reliable friend and teammate both on and off the field. If any of my teammates ever need help with anything, my desire is to be there in any way that I can. I have heard several stories of people looking back on their lives and realizing that something they will never regret are the times they were a true friend to someone. What they do regret though, is worrying too much about class and not focusing enough on family and relationships. I am not saying that we should not put our best effort into our school work. In fact, I am firm believer that a college education is very important and can be very beneficial. What I am saying, is that life is too short to become completely consumed and overwhelmed by school and forget about the other areas of our lives. In my opinion, the most important things in life are family, friends, and then school. Something that I have learned while being at OSU is the importance of keeping my priorities straight, and it is not easy to do. This does not mean that going to a party with a friend is more important than studying for school. Rather, being there for your family and friends when they need you the most should always come before anything else. Maintaining relationships and supporting one another is a priority.

Being on the baseball team, here at Oregon State, I have a very unique outlook on what it means to be orange. Being reliable does not only apply to my friends and family, it also applies to the entire school and campus. Many times the athletic programs are where schools get a lot of their identity and reputation. Because of this, it is our responsibility as athletes to be reliable and to represent OSU in a positive light. In addition to this, our baseball team often receives a lot of media attention for performing well, both on and off the field. Because of this, we have an amazing opportunity to promote our school and its values to people across the country.

I am beyond blessed to attend such an amazing, diverse school. Being orange means accepting others for who they are, and not just for where they come from or what they have achieved. It means supporting my friends and fellow students in whatever activities they are involved in. Being orange means having a passion for my school. It means representing with respect and integrity. It means making others look better than myself. As an athlete, it means holding myself to a higher academic, athletic and moral standard because I know that I am a direct representation of Oregon State University, and regardless of how it may seem, people are watching.

Oregon State University’s ideas for what being “orange” represents is stated in the university’s strategic plan. Their core values include accountability, diversity, integrity, respect, and social responsibility (“Strategic Plan”). This means being loyal to alumni and university supporters, welcoming to all people, honest in all that we do, civil to each other, and involved in society’s progress. Other Oregon State marketing groups have represented being orange as using our resources learned on campus to make a difference in our world with the Powered by Orange campaign.

Be passionate. Passion is defined as any powerful or compelling emotion, feeling, as love, or hate (“passion”). Being “Orange” for me is being passionate about life, education, and others. Oregon State is made up of people who are looking for a way to improve their life, through education, experiences and belonging to a group. Reasons for being a part of Oregon State University are different for every person, but whatever those reasons, it is important to be passionate and care about that reason for coming to Oregon State University. I am orange because I am passionate about being a beaver. The beaver campus, people and athletics are what I love about Oregon State. I am passionate about my education and future goals, which Oregon State has helped me to pursue. I show my passion of being orange by going to my classes, attending sporting events, and taking part in activities on campus.

Passion can also be shown negatively. People are passionate about their personal feelings but this does not mean it is morally right. A person can show passion for Oregon State by putting down the Oregon Ducks. Insulting another school for the benefit of your own school is an extreme example of using passion. Being over passionate is negative because a person who is over passionate can cause that person to act on their feelings and emotions. This can lead to immoral actions such as insulting, discriminating, and excluding a person or groups of people. Having no passion can be seen as lazy, uninterested, and unengaged. Being a part of Oregon State and having no passion for the school and education is immoral. This shows that going to Oregon State University and being a Beaver takes a certain amount of passion.

Passion can be shown in a variety of ways. We can be passionate about school and getting good grades. We can be passionate about learning new concepts and ideas. This does not necessarily include getting the best grades. We can be passionate about our friends, greek life, or club at Oregon State. We can be passionate about arts, creating and developing new things. We can be passionate about school spirit and athletics. I hope that in a way everybody is being passionate about making a difference. The difference does not have to be big, but I think the main goal for everyone should be to make a difference the life of a person, community, or population. It takes a passionate and motivated person to make a difference.
