Food in Culture and Social Justice Undergraduate Certificate
Executive Summary
Food is more than simple nourishment. It is part of a system of communication firmly
rooted in individual and group identities within diverse cultures around the world. When
and how we eat, what is considered acceptable to eat, how we prepare it, and how we
learn about securing, producing and eating food are all fascinating questions that have
long been explored by humanists and social scientists. Histories of particular food
commodities and changes in the way people think about sustaining healthy bodies richly
contextualizes our present practices. Food practices within subcultures and social
movements provide rich areas for cultural analysis. Food is also a key to power and
examination of global and local food systems leads us into questions of social justice.
Students will be asked to examine who in a given society has access to safe,
culturally acceptable, nutritionally adequate food and how self-sufficient and
sustainable food practices are. Not only will students examine these questions in the
classroom, but they will also work with community food groups during a required
one-credit service learning experience.
The School of Language, Culture and Society (separate Abbreviated Category I
proposal not yet submitted) proposes to offer interdisciplinary an undergraduate
certificate and a graduate minor in Food in Culture and Social Justice in response to
growing student and faculty interest in this area. This proposal is for an
undergraduate certificate. The core will consist of courses in Anthropology, History
and Ethnic Studies. Electives are divided evenly between coursework in other
humanities and social science disciplines and coursework in Agriculture, Nutrition,
Food Science and Public Health.

Brief overview (1-2 paragraphs) of the proposed program, including its
disciplinary foundations and connections; program objectives; programmatic focus;
degree, certificate, minor, and concentrations offered.
Food is more than simple nourishment. It is part of a system of communication firmly
rooted in individual and group identities within cultures around the world. When and how
we eat, what is considered acceptable to eat, how we prepare it, and how we learn about
producing and eating food are all fascinating questions to explore by humanists and
social scientists. Histories of particular food commodities and changes in the way people
think about sustaining healthy bodies richly contextualizes our present practices. Cultural
analyses of food and food production lead us to question the level of social justice within
the local and global food systems. Community food security is a condition in which all
community residents obtain a safe, culturally acceptable, nutritionally adequate diet
through a sustainable food system that maximizes community self-reliance and social
justice. Students who complete this certificate will not only have a clear idea of the
cultural bases of food and food production, but will obtain some experience working
towards community food security.
The School of Language, Culture and Society (separate Abbreviated Category I proposal
not yet submitted) proposes to offer interdisciplinary undergraduate and graduate
certificate, which must be taken in conjunction with a degree program, and a graduate
minor in Food in Culture and Social Justice in response to growing student and faculty
interest in this area. This proposal is for an undergraduate certificate. The core will
consist of courses in Anthropology, History and Ethnic Studies and a team-taught course
on Food Systems. Electives are divided evenly between coursework in other humanities
and social science disciplines and coursework in Agriculture, Nutrition, Food Science
and Public Health. All programs include at least 1 credit of experiential/service learning
which will be spent volunteering with food-related organizations.

d.
Manner in which the program will be delivered, including program location (if
offered outside of the main campus), course scheduling, and the use of technology (for
both on- campus and off-campus delivery).
This certificate, along with a graduate certificate (separate Category I proposal) and
graduate minor (separate Category II proposal) will be offered on the OSU campus with
experiential/service learning and study abroad components occurring off campus. It is
possible that they would be offered online at a later date.
e.
Ways in which the program will seek to assure quality, access, and diversity.
Program faculty includes several full professors who have published on the topic of food
and have held positions with national and local food-related organizations. They have
been meeting for the past two years and will ensure program quality. They will meet
every spring to plan the following year's classes in order to ensure that required classes
are available.
In preparation for this initiative, we have secured a Targeted Faculty Diversity Initiative.
The job description called for “Expertise in teaching and research in Global/Local Food
Crises with a specialization which includes an aspect of the global/ local food crisis as it
impacts the poor, indigenous peoples, communities of color, and women at home or
abroad” and includes .2 FTE for service and outreach to underrepresented groups. Lisa
Price has been hired into this position at the full professor level. Our core course Food
and Ethnic Identity within Ethnic Studies will certainly attract a diverse student body. We
5
plan to hire a half time coordinator of the program whose primary responsibilities will be
publicizing the program, advising students and tracking their experiential requirement.
Each student will also have a faculty advisor who will read their capstone portfolio.

l.
Facilities, library, and other resources.
As this proposal comprises a re-organization of currently existing coursework and
resources, no new facilities are required. Library holdings are already sufficient for the
undergraduate certificate, but we are committed to exceeding the merely adequate level
required for the graduate certificate by infusing into the library budget $5000 from the
Horning Endowment funds and some of the $4000 committed to the Food in Culture and
Social Justice program by the OSU Center for the Humanities.
The rich resources of Oregon State University make it the logical place for a program
such as this: a land-grant college surrounded by the rich farmland of the Willamette
Valley with a long history of Food Science and Agriculture degrees, and home to the
state's Extension Service. The new proposed alignment of the College of Liberal Arts
allows for cross-disciplinary strategic foci that will enhance educational experiences.
m. Anticipated start date.
Courses are already being offered.
2. Relationship to Mission and Goals
a.
Manner in which the proposed program supports the institution’s mission and
goals for access; student learning; research, and/or scholarly work; and service.
The proposed program supports OSU's mission to promote economic, social, cultural and
environmental progress by producing students who are versed in the place of food and
food production in human societies past and present. Questions about food systems are
central to human survival and progress and cannot be made without an understanding of
the cultural aspects of food. Program faculty are already involved in scholarly work in
Food Studies and this initiative will allow them to focus on this interest and incorporate
students in their research.
The lead faculty in this initiative represent ethnic and gender diversity which will help
attract a diverse student body. Several of them serve on the boards of non-profit
organizations that serve their communities. Students will be incorporated into these
service efforts.
b.
Connection of the proposed program to the institution’s strategic priorities and
signature areas of focus.
The program in Food in Culture and Social Justice will bring new knowledge and
potential solutions to all three signature areas: Research into cultural patterns of foraging
and farming practices both past and present can elucidate the scientific study of
“sustainable earth ecosystems.” The engaged research into community food security
improves “human health and wellness,” while it also promotes local “economic growth,”
particularly of rural food-producing communities.
9
c.
Manner in which the proposed program contributes to Oregon University System
goals for access; quality learning; knowledge creation and innovation; and economic
and cultural support of Oregon and its communities.
There is a growing interest among young people to study food in its cultural aspect and to
become involved with local food systems. Our students began and maintain the OSU
Emergency Food Pantry. They put on the Empty Bowls Fundraiser every year collecting
thousands of dollars to alleviate hunger both locally and globally. They volunteer for
non-profit organizations such as Ten Rivers Food Web and Corvallis-Albany Farmers'
Market Association. They grew organic greens and made delicious low-cost salads that
they sold on campus last year. OSU students have made SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program) benefits accessible at the Corvallis Farmers' Market by volunteering
to run the EBT machine which they have done since the inception of this program in
2007. Undergraduate students have completed honors’ theses on food systems both
locally and abroad. There is no doubt that this curricular program will enhance the
learning and outreach that is already going on.
d.
Manner in which the program meets broad statewide needs and enhances the
state’s capacity to respond effectively to social, economic, and environmental challenges
and opportunities.
Food insecurity is and has been a persistent problem in Oregon. From the hungriest state
in the nation in 2000, rebounding to 23rd in 2005, and then dropping to second in 2009, it
is clear that the state is in need of constant vigilance on this front. There has been a 50%
rise in SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) participation in the past 3
years and one fifth of the population is still food insecure. Emergency food boxes served
nearly 900,000 people last year and 36% of them were children. At the same time,
Oregon has a good climate and rich soils and agriculture is a major economic engine in
the state. We need people who can understand this disconnect and work to respond
effectively to the social, economic and environmental challenges inherent in the present
food system. Oregon offers students a great laboratory that they can export to other states
and around the world with the right cultural knowledge and sensitivity.
3. Accreditation
a.
Accrediting body or professional society that has established standards in the area
in which the program lies, if applicable.
N/A
b. Ability of the program to meet professional accreditation standards. If the program
does not or cannot meet those standards, the proposal should identify the area(s) in
which it is deficient and indicate steps needed to qualify the program for accreditation
and date by which it would be expected to be fully accredited.
N/A
c.
If the proposed program is a graduate program in which the institution offers an
10
undergraduate program, proposal should identify whether or not the undergraduate
program is accredited and, if not, what would be required to qualify it for accreditation.
N/A
d.
If accreditation is a goal, the proposal should identify the steps being taken to
achieve accreditation. If the program is not seeking accreditation, the proposal should
indicate why it is not.
N/A
4. Need
a.
Evidence of market demand.
Food Studies is relatively new multidisciplinary field that addresses the relationship
between food and the human experience, from farm to fork. This will be the only
program in Food Studies on the West Coast, an area full of innovative food projects. The
particular focus on social justice makes this program unique in the nation.
When we first began thinking about offering this curricular program in the Fall of 2009,
we surveyed 58 students in 400/500 level Anthropology classes, and 120 students in a
large Baccalaureate Core course. We asked “If you were/are at the beginning of graduate
school, would you be interested in a graduate certificate in Food and Culture (18-24
credits)” and had them mark their level of interest on a scale from 1 (not interested) to 5
(very interested). Of the 178 students, 43 marked 4 or 5, or 24% of the total. In the upper
division courses the percentage went up to 36% or 21 individuals. The first time we
enrolled students in the Anthropology of Food in 2007, we had 5 graduate students and 3
undergraduates sign up. When we offered it in the Fall of 2010, we had 13 graduate
students and 19 undergraduates sign up.
Food Studies students have ended up in a variety of private, non-profit and government
positions. There is an increasing number of positions in academia as well. The Food
Studies graduates who reported on their employment at the joint meetings of the
Association for the Study of Food and Society, Agriculture, Food and Human Values and
the Society for the Anthropology of Food and Nutrition (Indiana University in June,
2010) had found jobs running food-related non-profit organizations, working in and
starting their own food businesses, and reviewing restaurants. They spoke to the
importance of straddling both academia and the public sector, of being flexible and
versatile, of being able to communicate across disciplines. They advocated for a holistic
approach and stressed the importance of knowing the cultural side of food. This
sentiment also comes out in the blog at http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/494623.
A portion of our students will be obtaining majors in Nutrition, Public Health,
Agriculture and Food Science. The additional certificate showing competence in the
human dimension of food and the analysis of inequality in food systems will improve
their employment possibilities in food businesses and health organizations. Even without
these more science-based majors, students will be able to find employment in numerous
organizations focused on improving food systems and the access to food such as: Oregon
Food Bank and its regional affiliates, Partners for a Hunger-Free Oregon, Community
Food Security Coalition, Feeding America, Food First and local Farmers Markets.
Studying food, culture and social justice has an added bonus when it comes to demand
because we all eat every day. How students eventually incorporate food into their own
households and the sorts of community activities that they engage in should not be
overlooked by focusing on a market narrowly defined as income-producing.
11
b.
If the program’s location is shared with another similar OUS program, proposal
should provide externally validated evidence of need (e.g., surveys, focus groups,
documented requests, occupational/employment statistics and forecasts).
There is no similar program in the greater Northwest.
c.
Manner in which the program would serve the need for improved educational
attainment in the region and state.
Students have already shown their interest in food, culture and social justice. The
proposed certificate will offer them a transcript-visible, well-rounded food- oriented
curriculum to add to their major competencies.
d.
Manner in which the program would address the civic and cultural demands of
citizenship.
The social justice slant of this program directly addresses the civic and cultural demands
of citizenship. We have already sponsored several public lectures concerning food justice
that have been attended by faculty, students, and community members. Students will
explore what citizenship entails when it comes to food security and whether the access to
food should be a human right. In addition, they will get hands on experience being a
"good citizen" by working directly with food justice organizations in food pantries,
gleaner groups, small farms, and soup kitchens.
5. Outcomes and Quality Assessment
a.
Expected learning outcomes of the program.
1. Develop and apply critical thinking and critical writing competencies about food,
culture and social justice
2. Describe food systems in cross-cultural and historic perspectives
3. Using historical and contemporary examples, describe how perceived differences,
combined with unequal distribution of power across economic, social, and
political institutions, result in discrimination in access to food and land.
4. Critically evaluate the role of food in the construction of identity (gender, ethnicity,
religious, etc.)
5. Discuss the importance of historical competence as it pertains to changing ideas
about food and the historical trajectory of certain foods
6. Demonstrate skills of observation and analysis of food using mixed methods
7. Articulate and model civic competence through engagement with community
projects
b.
Methods by which the learning outcomes will be assessed and used to improve
curriculum and instruction.
12
Each core course addresses the first outcome and one of the following ones. The required
experiential component addresses outcome #7. They will be assessed during each course
and again during the capstone portfolio review. If it is noted that students are falling short
on an outcome, adjustments will be made in the curriculum to remedy the weakness.
c.
Program performance indicators, including prospects for success of program
graduates (employment or graduate school) and consideration of licensure, if
appropriate.
We plan to keep track of Food in Culture and Social Justice students through a Facebook
page and to conduct a five-year post graduate survey.
d.
Nature and level of research and/or scholarly work expected of program faculty;
indicators of success in those areas.
Program faculty will continue their involvement in national and international professional
organizations, their publications in Food Studies, and their involvement with community
organizations. They will continue meeting regularly to discuss their research with
colleagues across the disciplines and to collaborate on research projects and projects to
enhance the Food and Culture Initiative.
6. Program Integration and Collaboration
a.
Closely related programs in other OUS universities and Oregon private
institutions.
There are no comparable programs in the OUS system. There are, however, courses at
both public and private institutions which could be transferred in to fulfill requirements
for this program. For instance, the University of Oregon offers ANT 4/560 Nutritional
Anthropology; ANT 399 Food Origins in Prehistory; and ANT 365 Food and Culture.
PSU offers ANT 333 The Anthropology of Food; GEOG 346 World Population and Food
Supply; and Urban Planning courses that address land use for food production. We have
just learned about a PSU study abroad program focused on the geography of food. Reed
College offers History 311-Food in American History: Burgers, Fries, and Apple Pie and
Lewis and Clark College offers Soc/Anth 249-The Political Economy of Food.
b.
Ways in which the program complements other similar programs in other Oregon
institutions and other related programs at this institution. Proposal should identify the
potential for collaboration.
The proposed Food in Culture and Social Justice program synergistically unites faculty in
the four departments of proposed School of Language, Culture and Society. In addition,
there are core faculty members in the newly forming Schools of Public Policy; Writing,
Literature and Film; and History/Philosophy. In addition to Liberal Arts faculty of many
13
disciplines, the Food and Culture Faculty Research Initiative has included faculty in
Nutrition, Food Science, Agriculture and Extension Service. The Food in Culture and
Social Justice graduate certificate will complement OSU degrees that focus on the more
scientific aspects of food production and consumption with a humanities-focus on food
and food systems. Racial, ethnic, social class and gender diversity will be central to many
of the core courses as we explore issues of social justice within local and global food
systems. This certificate will allow Liberal Arts majors to focus their interests on food
and approach it from a multidisciplinary perspective. We expect that some students in
Agriculture, Food Science, Nutrition, Public Health and even Environmental Sciences
will be interested in adding this certificate to their program of study. Students from other
Oregon institutions might well look to this certificate program to feed their interests as
well. For example, the University of Oregon (UO) put on a Food Justice conference
showcasing several national and international scholars in February 2011 that was well
attended by our students. When we have put on Food Summits in Corvallis, UO students
have also attended. PSU’s work on urban gardening would be a welcomed addition. As
the OSU Food and Culture initiative grows, we can see many opportunities for
collaboration across Oregon institutions.
c.
If applicable, proposal should state why this program may not be collaborating
with existing similar programs.
N/A
d.
Potential impacts on other programs in the areas of budget, enrollment, faculty
workload, and facilities use.
By integrating faculty concentrations and student interests, the proposed curricular
programs offer a new focus for present and prospective students at a negligible cost to the
institution. Faculty are already teaching food and culture classes and advising students.
The recent hire of Lisa Price at the full professor level with primary responsibilities in the
Food in Culture and Social Justice program will balance out a slight increase in
enrollment. She will begin her work at OSU in Fall 2011. Faculty workload will increase
slightly with the review of capstone portfolios, but the addition of a program
coordinator/advisor should even out the time spent.
7. Financial Sustainability (attach the completed Budget Outline)
a.
Business plan for the program that anticipates and provides for its long-term
financial viability, addressing anticipated sources of funds, the ability to recruit and
retain faculty, and plans for assuring adequate library support over the long term.
The proposed certificate offers a new curriculum concentration by re-organizing existing
courses and adding a hire in Food in Culture and Social Justice in the proposed School of
Language, Culture and Society. When we advertised for this position, we received
applications from some of the top scholars in the field, indicating to us that this is a very
exciting direction to be taking. Faculty working within this initiative are committed to
applying for external funding to bring resources to this program. (One proposal on
childhood hunger is already in the works and Horning program development funds have
been received for a course buy-out in Fall 2011 to develop proposals for this initiative.)
14
The Anthropology Department has supported the development of several program
courses and will continue to use its e-campus earnings to provide supplies to the program.
The transitional director of the proposed School of Language, Culture and Society has put
the .5 coordinator’s salary on the beginning budget of 2011-12 and pledged $5000 the
first year for a computer, services and supplies to adequately advertise and recruit for the
program. In subsequent years this amount will be reduced to $1500. Anita Guerrini,
Horning Professor in the Humanities, has committed $5000 of Horning Endowment
funds to buy the monographs necessary to fulfill the requirements of the library
assessment. The Horning Endowment was designed to create a closer link between
science and the humanities. Its advisory committee invests in ways to improve and extend
the teaching of humanities to the sciences and other disciplines at Oregon State
University and to extend humanistic knowledge in ways that demonstrate the importance
of the liberal arts to the sciences. Since these goals are central to the Food in Culture and
Social Justice programs, we expect that we will be successful in applying for future
funding from this endowment. We have included $1500 in Horning funds in years 2, 3
and 4 in order to bring in outside speakers. David Robinson, Director of the Center for
the Humanities has offered $2000 a year for the first two years of operation for whatever
needs we may have. We expect that some of these funds will be used to boost the library
holdings above the simply adequate mark.
b.
Plans for development and maintenance of unique resources (buildings,
laboratories, technology) necessary to offer a quality program in this field.
No unique resources are necessary. We will use existing classrooms, computer labs, and
library. We expect to also use the student kitchen for certain classes and gatherings.
c.
Targeted student/faculty ratio (student FTE divided by faculty FTE)
The program coordinator will advise students initially and allocate them to Food and
Culture faculty so that each faculty member will advise no more than 10 students.
d.
Resources to be devoted to student recruitment.
The program coordinator will work with the program faculty and university marketing to
develop a set of promotional materials to distribute and to use at recruiting fairs. We have
budgeted $3000 for the development and distribution of these materials. Faculty members
will set up a booth at the joint meeting of the Association for the Study of Food and
Society; Agriculture, Food, and Human Values; and the Society for the Anthropology of
Food and Nutrition in order to recruit interested students.
8. External Review(if the proposed program is a graduate level program, follow the
guidelines provided in External Review of new Graduate Level Academic
Programs in addition to completing all of the above information)

Dear Joan,
On behalf of the Center for the Humanities, I am happy to offer enthusiastic support for your
proposal for curricular programs in the area of Food in Culture and Social Justice. This initiative
brings together a distinguished group of faculty to address subjects of growing importance, and
your proposal maps an innovative way in which these questions can be addressed in our
undergraduate and graduate curriculum. As your proposal recognizes, the questions concerning
the production and distribution of food call for faculty expertise from a variety of fields, and
bring approaches from the humanities, social sciences, and the sciences together in an
important collaboration. The Humanities Center has supported several recent research projects
in this area, including work by several of the affiliated faculty in the Food and Culture Initiative.
We look forward to having Norma Cardenas and Jonathan Kaplan as Research Fellows in 20112012. We have also been pleased to host early planning discussions connected with this
initiative. I believe that here is growing interest in these issues within the Humanities faculty at
Oregon State. These programs will contribute significantly to our graduate and undergraduate
offerings, and will become an effective tool in faculty recruitment and retention.
The Center will be able to provide a small amount of supplementary funding in your first two
years of operation, and we also welcome your continuing use of the Center’s seminar room and
lecture room for meetings and events connected with the program. I wish you the best luck in
establishing these exciting new programs.
Sincerely,
David M. Robinson

the opportity to formally study topics that are cutting edge with appropriate methodology,

credentials from OSU that can open career paths in food policy, food activism, food production,
its legacy as a land grant

Research and Advocacy:
The Reproductive Health Laboratory
Thanks to generous funding provided by the Komen for the Cure Foundation and the Department
of Anthropology, I was able to organize and open the Reproductive Helath Laboratory (RHL) in
Waldo Hall 272 during the fall term of 2007. The RHL is a resource and research center
addressing the reproductive health of women and men in the United States and abroad. Twentyfour research projects that allow undergraduate and graduate students and faculty to work
together from research design stages through data collection, analysis and write-up are housed on
the RHL. We also co-sponsor several community outreach events each term and maintain open
lab hours each month devoted to our peer reproductive health advocacy program. Through oneon-one mentoring in the skills of health research and advocacy, we strive to decrease health
inequities and to nourish each individual to be proactive and confident in their reproductive
health care. The RHL functions through a collaborative venture between OSU faculty, graduate
9
and undergraduate students, clinicians, community organizations, and campus partners. Visit us
at: http://oregonstate.edu/cla/anthropology/reproductive_lab/index.htm
Program & Service Areas
The RHL has three main programmatic areas:
1. Breast Health Education for the OSU Campus Community
2. Pregnancy Health & Birthing Options Campus and Community Outreach
3. Cultural Competency in Health Care Provision
Our Mission
The Reproductive Health Lab will improve the health of women and families in the United
States and abroad by supporting research, public education, and advocacy aimed at identifying
and implementing solutions to contemporary reproductive health issues.
Our Vision
We have a vision of a laboratory where medical anthropologists, public health professionals,
clinicians, community organizations, and campus partners work together in common
commitment to healthy women and families. Through creative research, education and political
advocacy, we will work to improve the state of reproductive health for all. The Reproductive
Health Lab aims specifically:
• To create a safe space where reproductive health discussions, idea sharing, and advocacy
movements can flourish.
• To apply cross-cultural and evolutionary approaches to better understand current health
and disease patterns.
• To educate and empower the campus community through the provision of information,
resources, and peer reproductive health counseling.
• To decrease inequities in access to care at home and abroad by facilitating research and
political advocacy on safe, effective, holistic and affordable alternatives to high-tech,
biomedical interventions.
• To improve the availability of culturally competent care, in both urban and rural settings,
through the development and testing of experimental care-provider training programs.
• To provide state-of-the-art equipment and resources to facilitate research and projects
that improve the quality and dissemination of information that allows women and their
families to make informed and empowered decisions.

Peer Reproductive Health Advocacy Training
12
Spring term, OSU Department of Anthropology and Student Health Services
This weekend, 1-credit course trains students on how to become effective peer advocates in
reproductive health and information navigation. It covers elements of basic listening and
communication skills, conflict resolution, crisis recognition and referral and exposed participants
to the topics of breast health, pregnancy and birth, and parenting needs and local resources. The
goal of this course is to prepare students to engage the role of a peer reproductive health
advocate. We plan to offer it once each year. Students who successfully complete the course can
apply to volunteer as peer health advocates in the lab. This year we had several applicants and
have selected four medical anthropology and public health graduate students and two
anthropology undergraduate volunteers.
“Unnatural Causes” Film Showing and Public Health Work Group
April 9, 2008 7-9pm
Oddfellows Lodge, Corvallis, OR
Unnatural Causes is a documentary series that sheds light on mounting evidence that
demonstrates how work, wealth, neighborhood conditions, and lack of access to power and
resources can make people just as sick as germs and viruses can. As Harvard epidemiologist
David Williams points out, investing in our schools, improving housing, and helping people find
better jobs and earn higher wages are equally as important to improving people's health as
quitting smoking, eating well, and exercising. The film was followed by a facilitated discussion
with Charlie Tomlinson (Mayor of Corvallis), Barbara Ross (League of Women Voters
Corvallis), Rosa Plascencia (Linn Benton Hispanic Advisory Committee) and Pete Tuana
(Strengthening Rural Families & Philomath School District). Following the film, our lab joined
with members of the OSU Public Health Program and Benton County Public Health to form an
unnatural causes working group charged with researching and finding solutions to health
disparities in Linn-Benton Counties.
Heart of the Valley Birth Network
This is a grassroots organization comprised of campus and Corvallis community members. Their

Raising Women’s Voices
Focus Group June 10, 2008
10am-12pm
The Council on Anthropology and Reproduction (CAR) has formed a partnership with the
Raising Women's Voices Initiative, sponsored by MergerWatch, the Avery Institute, and the
National Women's Health Network http://www.raisingwomensvoices.net/. The Reproductive
Health Laboratory assisted in this project by conducting a focus group session designed to elicit
women's interactions with the health care system, including the institutional barriers faced and
solutions to overcome. Findings from this focus group were summarized and sent to the National
Women’s Health network and will be used to affect policy change.
The Assertive Cancer Patient

Cosponsored along with the Department of Anthropology, The Women’s Center, and Women
Studies two talks by Jeanne Sather:

Joining the Family: Photographic Exhibit
Fenario Gallery, Eugene, OR May 2, 2008, 5:30-9pm
An exhibit sponsored by the Oregon Midwifery Council and the Reproductive Health Lab in
honor of International Midwives’ Day that displays the photographic birth work of Julie James of
Indiana University. James captures the essence, power and transformation of the birthing process
through her photographic narrative, allowing an alternative discourse of human childbirth to
emerge and a re-working of childbirth options to ensue. I gave a talk opening night based on my
2008 article on homebirth as systems-challenging praxis. Over 500 community members
attended the event.

Collaborative Efforts since Tenure
I’ve had several conversations with colleagues in the colleges of Heath and Human Sciences and
Agriculture about forming an interdisciplinary degree program in Food Studies
I’ve collaborated with colleagues across campus in the establishment and work of the Rural
Studies Initiative.
I worked with International Education staff, Chris Sproul and Laurie Lewis and Conversant
Program coordinator, Moira Dempsey to create an International Mentoring class to pair
international and American students and aid in their integration to OSU and Corvallis.
Language in Culture Certificate Program. I developed this in collaboration with the linguist in
Foreign Languages Department, Juan Trujillo, in order to serve OSU students with an interest in
culturally situated linguistics.
A group of us from several departments in the College of Liberal Arts and the School of
Education put together an Association for the Technical Assistance for Oregon Languages. We
worked with Oregon tribal language teachers to facilitate their teaching in the public schools. We
hosted two annual conferences “Speaking to the Seventh Generation: Languages of
Remembering, Languages of Today” in the Springs of 2002 and 2003.
International Teaching Activities since Tenure
Study Abroad
Taught Nutritional Anthropology (with David McMurray) at La Universidad San Francisco de
Quito, as part of a faculty exchange with 2 Ecuadorian professors, Winter/Spring 2006.
Director of Northwest Interinstitutional Council on Study Abroad in Angers, France, Fall 1999.
Developed a taught Multicultural France: Expressions of Race, Class, Gender and Region. In
conjunction with the class I organized 4 one day fieldtrips and one 3 day fieldtrip to Brittany for
40 students.
7
Resident Director of Oregon University System Overseas Study Center in France,
1995-1996. Besides administering the program, I taught a course on cultural studies in Lyon and
organized several educational fieldtrips, including a 5 day trip to the Dordogne for 40 students.
In addition to teaching abroad, I have developed several courses to support studying abroad for
both American and international students. These were developed in close contact with
International Education staff. I developed ANTH 208 and 209 to integrate study abroad
programs into the Baccalaureate Core, and indirectly encourage OSU students to take advantage
of study abroad programs.
I’ve mentored six International Degree Students and have supervised 6 students on international
internships in Tunisia, Sweden, Tanzania, Senegal, Corsica, France. Bolivia and Ecuador.
International Curriculum
In almost all of the classes I teach, I draw the majority of class material from contexts outside the
borders of the USA. I have taught ANTH 498/598 Linguistic Transcription in collaboration with
an international student consultant. I teach how to elicit and analyze unknown languages. To
date, we have spent different terms concentrating on Farsi, Kazak, Finnish, Tumbuka, and Gonja.
I organized the visit of French anthropologist, François Laplantine, in Fall 1996 to three Oregon
universities. I arranged for a public lecture, comparing French and American anthropology and
simultaneously translated that lecture into English.
International Students
Gave recruiting talks to French university students at Claude Bernard University, Jean Moulin
University, Lyon III, and the Catholic University of Lyons, France and met with prospective
exchange students from the University of Poitiers, France. 1995-96.
I developed ANTH 406 to facilitate the integration of international students at OSU and I pair
Language, Culture and Society students every Fall with international students. I’ve mentored 10
international graduate students.
Advising
I see approximately 10 undergraduate advisees per term, mostly focused on academic progress.
Those undergraduate students in the Honor’s College, the International Degree Program and the
McNair scholarship program I meet with more frequently. I meet with my on-campus graduate
students several times a term, intensifying as they begin writing their theses. Since tenure, I have
spent 5 terms abroad and when I am teaching or directing programs overseas, advising is a major
part of my duties and it is weighted toward non-academic counseling. I also serve as advisor for
the OSU Food Group and the Anthropology Club.
Other Assignments
I have been encouraged by my department chair to direct study abroad programs and to accept
the interim directorship of the DPD Program. In the 8 terms, I have spent in these positions, I
have taken on far more administrative duties which are reflected in my multiple job
descriptions. In all three jobs, I continued having a certain amount of instructional and advising
duties, but I was also in charge of maintaining good relations with international and campus
partners, recruiting international students, supervising staff, assessing and improving existing
programs, producing operational and budget reports.

Introduction to Food Systems: Global, Regional, Local
MWF 11am
What is a food system?
“The food system includes all processes involved in keeping us fed: growing, harvesting,
processing (or transforming or changing), packaging, transporting, marketing,
consuming and disposing of food and food packages. It also includes the inputs needed
and outputs generated at each step. The food system operates within and is influenced
by social, political, economic and natural environments. Each step is also dependent on
human resources that provide labor, research and education.” (Cornell University, nd,
Discovering the Food System)
There are different ways of thinking about food systems. For example,
“The food system is enormous, complex, and integrally related to a host of
environmental and social challenges including environmental pollution, greenhouse gas
emissions, fair trade, erosion, biodiversity loss, and hunger and malnutrition to name a
few.” (Millstone and Lang, Atlas of Food, 2008)
This new course will introduce students to the complex topic of food systems by drawing on the
range of disciplines represented in the College of Agriculture and the College of Public Health
and Human Sciences. Most of the lectures will be given by faculty in the colleges, offering
students both content and theoretical framing specific to their departments. The Rural Studies
Program will lead course development and implementation.
The course will be taught in the spring of 2012. It will be a 3-credit course for upper division
undergraduates and graduate students, letter graded, in three 50 minute class sessions per
week (MWF). We will cap it at 25 students.
Course requirements:
•
•
•
Attendance/class participation;
Four reflection papers (<5 p. each) on the four sections of the class (see below);
Final project: students, in groups of 5, will research and make a presentation on a
specific food product. Each student will be assigned a different role: grower, processor,
marketer/distributor, consumer, policy analyst. Separately and together, the students
will research that food production system and make a presentation.
Instructions for lecturers:
• Please plan to assign at least 10 pages of reading per class session. (We’ll need to
finalize this well before the term begins.)

•
•
•
•
What three concepts (expressed in a few words/phrases) do you want students to take
away from your lecture? Tell Lauren beforehand and the students at the start/end of
your lecture.
Early in your lecture, tell us where your part fits on the food system diagram (we’ll
distribute it to you before classes start and show/explain it to students in lecture #1).
As much as possible, be explicit in your lecture about the scale of your topics: global,
regional, and/or local?
Provide, at the end of your lecture, a short list of resources for more information:
papers/books/people/organizations.
Proposed Course Outline/Schedule (10 weeks, plus finals week)
The course has four sections; at the end of each, there will be a class session, led by Lauren, to
reflect on/digest what came before. A short paper will be due at the start of that class.
Section 1
Introduction to Food Systems
April 2: Introduction to food systems/course mechanics – Lauren Gwin/Bruce Weber (AREc)
April 4: Evolution of the U.S. Food System – Paul Barkley (AREc)
April 6: Geography of Food – Larry Becker (Geosciences)
Focus on agricultural systems:
• Discussed by climate region (e.g. tropical and temperate);
• Investigated by production orientation, along a subsistence/peasant and
commercial/market-oriented/productivist continuum;
• Classified/introduced by crop & animal type/commodity, related to the other factors;
• Attention to land tenure, labor organization, local and world trade, and inputs.
Crop Production (Russ Karow and CSS faculty)
April 9: Soils, climates and ecozones; hydroponics – where can we grow crops and why
April 11: A primer on crop plant physiology – cool season, warm season, winter, spring, dryland,
irrigated, paddy – how does physiology drive crop production and what changes are possible
April 13: Fertilizers – what are they, where do they come from, why do we use them and what
is their future
April 16: Non-food uses of crops and crop land – what and why, bioproducts, grazing, land
conservation programs
2
April 18: Production systems – conventional, “sustainable,” organic – the what’s and whys
April 20: Factors affecting crop food security – diseases, pests, regulations, GMOs, soil
degradation, water concerns
April 23: Reflection session for Section 1
Section 2
Meat and Seafood Production (Jim Males, ANS/Gil Sylvia, COMES)
April 25: Commercial Poultry (eggs and meat) and swine production – Males
April 27: Commercial Dairy and Beef – Males
April 30: Organic, Natural, and Niche market production for meat, milk, and eggs – Males
May 2 and May 4: the complexity of seafood systems (number of species, management
systems, wild and cultured, plus global production and trade) – Sylvia
May 7: Reflection session for Section 2
Section 3
Food Processing and Preservation (Bob McGorrin and FST faculty)
Processing/preservation/packaging for different food products (case studies).
May 9: Grain Crops – Andrew Ross (FST/CSS)
May 11: Fruits & Vegetables & Food Safety – Mark Daeschel (FST)
May 14: Dairy – Lisbeth Goddik (FST)
Food Choices and Foodservice Systems (Mary Cluskey/NUTR)
May 16, May 18, and May 21: consumer/health perspective; programming on food security,
food programs, foodservice, food and nutrition policy. Focus will be to address the public’s
need to understand these concepts relative to eating and health.
May 23: reflection session for Section 3
3
Section 4
Economics and Policy: Global and Local
May 25: What to Eat and What to Grow? Consumer economics and food choices, and farmer
economics and production choices – Susan Capalbo (AREc)
May 30: Food Retail, past and present – Tom Gilpatrick, PSU (to be invited)
June 1: Global food markets and trade policy – Munisamy Gopinath (AREc)
June 4: Household food insecurity and food assistance policy – Bruce Weber (AREc)
June 6: Local food – Larry Lev (AREc)
What “local” means; costs and benefits of a more localized food system; a framework, for
producers and consumers, for considering the tradeoffs of the choices they face; and an
introduction to “values-based value chains” and the “agriculture of the middle.”
June 8: Reflection session for Section 4
Finals week (June 11-15)
The five student presentations (15-20 min. each) will be given during the finals period.

Joan,
Re: Food in Culture and Social Justice Certificates
The Budget & Fiscal Planning Committee reviewed your answers to our questions and has given
committee approval with a recommendation that the proposal be moved forward to the next Faculty
Senate committee. Your corrections will be posted to the database by Gary Beach’s office. Thanks for
your quick and thorough response.

Subject: Re: Food in Culture and Social Justice Certificates
Dear Carol,
Please see my responses to the B and FP Committee below. If you have any further
questions, do not hesitate to call.

Budget-related questions:
Please clarify whether the budget worksheets, which are identical for both proposals #81910 –
Graduate Certificate and #81331 – Undergraduate Certificate are the combined costs for both
programs. If the worksheets represent the combined costs, are the costs for each program 50%
of the listed expense or is one certificate program weighted differently for cost?
RESPONSE- The budget sheets presented are the combined costs for both proposals and, in
addition, for a Category 2 proposal for a graduate minor in Food in Culture and Social Justice.
We have not thought about separating out the costs for each program since they will be using
the same library materials and the coordinator will be recruiting and advising for all three
programs
The $2,000 expense for equipment in Year 1 should be listed under supplies and services. The
equipment threshold is $5,000. Please make a correction to the budget worksheet.
RESPONSE- This was an oversight. Gary Beach told me to move it to s and s and I simply forgot.
Now, however, I’m not allowed to make corrections, so I’ll have to depend on Sarah Williams to
do so.
Are there any additional faculty costs for these programs other than the .5 FTE Professional
Faculty Program Coordinator?
RESPONSE- No, all participating faculty are departmental teaching faculty.
The evidence of market demand described in the narrative consists of a survey given to 178
OSU students and the response was not strong enough to be conclusive. Is there any additional
information that supports market demand for these certificate programs?
RESPONSE- Actually, if even half of the 64 students in this survey who said that they would be
interested or very interested in pursuing a Food in Culture certificate did so, we would exceed
the enrollments we projected. There are several new programs in Food Studies around the
world that have sprung up in the past decade and they have not had trouble with enrollment.
This will be the first one on the West Coast. We have 3 new graduate students arriving in the
Fall who already plan to pursue either the minor or the certificate and six of our current
graduate students have signed a letter of support which is attached above. Again, I will have to
rely on Sarah Williams to attach it to the proposal. Be advised that all the courses taught within
these programs also meet requirements in other programs.

SUBJECT: Curriculum Liaison
The attached Category I proposal and attachments describe new
Food and Culture curricular programs. We are proposing to offer
undergraduate, post baccalaureate, and graduate certificates and
a graduate minor in this field.
In accordance with the liaison criteria in the Curricular
Procedures Handbook, this memo serves as notification to your
unit of our intent to make this curricular change.
Please review the attached materials and send your comments,
concern, or support to Joan Gross by March 31. Your timely
response is appreciated.
Please note that a lack of response will be interpreted as support.
Thank you for your time and input.

Professor of Anthropology
Oregon State University
Hi Joan, thanks for the opportunity to review the proposal describing new
programs in food and culture. The focus of the proposed programs is relevant
and timely, in both local and global contexts. OSU has a high level of
expertise in this area, and I think the proposed programs will provide great
educational experiences to our students. As the acting DPD Program Director,
I am especially pleased to see that the proposed programs have a "social
justice slant." I believe there will be opportunities for collaboration,
especially around topics of food justice (for example, co-sponsorship of
public lectures, development and sharing of effective teaching/learning
practices, including service learning).
Michelle Bothwell
Associate Professor, Chemical, Biological and Environmental Engineering
Acting Director, Difference, Power and Discrimination Program
Joan,
I thank you for the opportunity to review your proposal on new Food and
Culture curricular offerings. Given the growing importance and interest
in food on local, national and international levels, providing
educational opportunities in this subject matter will be essential so
that sound decisions regarding food policy can be made by our citizenry
and leaders.
A concern about the proposed curriculum is that students are not
required to take any coursework that would provide them with basic
information on traditional crop production. The faculty in Crop and Soil
Science feel that having background information on current practices
would be essential as students ponder how changes might be made in the
current system or as they consider alternative production systems. Be
assured that we are not trying to just generate SCH for our classes but
believe that students need this background to make informed decisions
about food systems.
This said, the number of existing courses that would provide such
background that do not have prerequisite requirements are limited. The
one class that would seem the best fit is World Food Crops (CSS/HORT
330). This class would give students general background on the major
food crops of the world and some of their production practices. This
class is available both on campus and as an Ecampus class. There are no
required prerequisites and the class is a Bacc core class.
Other classes that could fill the role of providing background
information include the following:
HORT 112 - Introduction to Horticultural Systems, Practices and Careers
HORT 260 - Organic Farming and Gardening
HORT/CSS 300 - Introduction to Crop Production
CSS 200 - Crop Ecology and Morphology (likely less useful)
CSS 205 - Soils: Sustainable Ecosystems (likely less useful but also
on-line and Bacc core)
Graduate level classes are more problematic. The CSS 560 you currently
have listed as an elective offering would not be useful as the focus is
on seeds rather than food crops per se (and there is a CSS200 prereq).
CSS 580 could be useful but it again has a prereq (CSS/HORT 300). This
can perhaps be waived but without some background in crop production the
class could be difficult for students. Some sort of graduate level
add-on to the World Food Crops class may be an option.
Please let me know if you have questions or would like to discuss these
ideas further. Thanks again for the opportunity to provide input.
Russ Karow, Head
Crop and Soil Science
Susan and Joan: Thanks for the opportunity to respond to the Cat 1
proposal for Food and Culture. I appreciate all of the work and thoughts
that have gone into this proposal. In responding, I have solicited
info from members of my department who have spent their careers
addressing food, agriculture, and economics. Bruce Weber has forwarded
his comments to you directly as they pertain to the Rural Studies
program.
1.
I echo similar concerns voiced by Russ Karow. Graduates need to
understand and appreciate the economics of food production & delivery,
policy at the state, federal levels that affect producers and consumers,
and food's role in an economy. Thus the proposal could be significantly
strengthened if it were more a cooperative effort with CAS. .
Furthermore, in your proposal it seems like an international experience
can substitute for all of the electives that would include anything
outside of the 3 CLA depts. So in effect there could be no CAS classes
if a student decided to go the international experience route.
2.
Your new program is commended in seeking a niche that captures
the rich national and local interest in food systems. There is growing
interest in more local food, on just and sustainable food systems, on
the causes and consequences of food insecurity. Once again drawing on
the expertise of CAS is fundamental. Conversely, our CAS students could
benefit from what this program may offer in expanding their
understanding of cultural issues.
3.
On page 16 under "Need", is the following quote: (to place)
"Food Studies" graduates in positions in non-profits and government
positions (examples include running food-related non-profit
organizations, working in and starting their own food businesses, and
reviewing restaurants.... a cheese maker, a few cooks, a freelance food
writer, a couple of teachers and an extension agent), graduates would be
much better prepared if the requirements included courses outside of the
School of Language, Culture and Society. To reiterate my points above,
this would include courses on the global and local food systems, the
production, marketing and consumption of food.
4.
We (AREc) do not currently offer an overview course on the
economics of food production, marketing and consumption, but AREc could
work with you to develop such a course, and assuming resources are
available to teach such a course, to help find a dynamic instructor. In
my opinion, this would require significant changes in the proposal,
would require finding additional resources and would move the program
into a cross-college program. As it stands, however, the proposal does
not require courses that would prepare students well in "Food Studies",
or fill the kinds of jobs identified in the "Needs" section.
Susan and Joan: in summary, to understand food issues one needs to
invest in understanding the landscape in which these issues occur: food
production and food consumption, global and regional trade issues,
market structure and policy, as well as cultural and other aspects.
Thanks for the opportunity to respond.

RE:
Proposal for Undergraduate/Graduate Certificate
Graduate Minor in Food and Culture and Social Justice (FCSJ)
From:
Nutrition and Exercise Sciences Department (NES)
Nutrition and Dietetics Faculty
The NES faculty has reviewed the proposal for Food and Culture and Social Justice
(we are not clear if that is the current name) (FCSJ). We applaud the idea of using
multi-disciplinary approach to study food and culture and of adding this to the
academic options at OSU. We encourage the idea that the certificate and minor be
focused on social justice, considering the proposed required curriculum. To that
end, we also advocate for coursework in Human Development and Family Studies,
specifically Families in Poverty (HDFS 447/547). Among the food and nutrition
faculty there is agreement with the proposal statement that food is not only about
making money.
We appreciate how this program could support our (food and nutrition) students’
learning of the cultural and environmental perspective and how that impacts food
and nutrition. However, we are not sure how many of our students would choose
the certificate or graduate minor.
We believe that students that are outside of the food science, nutrition and dietetics,
public health and agriculture majors would be challenged to have enough basic
conceptual knowledge in food science, food production, public health or nutrition
without taking more basic coursework in one of those areas. Without such, we are
not clear how they will be poised to fill positions in food businesses, community,
extension and health organizations, as indicated in the narrative. On the other
hand, a focus in social justice and food security might be a more reasonable
direction for a career or specialty for those coming from other backgrounds.
Several of the NES faculty have concerns that there needs to be more science
incorporated into the program options. The following are additional questions that
the NES faculty have and we also provide some comments and suggestions.
Questions:
What exactly will the certificate signify? What will students believe that the
certificate means to them from a professional perspective? How will the students
market themselves with this certificate?
Are the specified learning outcomes that a student would expect from the program
matched to professional competencies of those that are defined in the section on
“need”?
How exactly are you defining food systems? Are you referring to an aggregate
understanding of agricultural production, manufacturing, processing, distribution
and/or foodservice production? Is the goal that students be exposed to an
understanding of all of those systems?
Has any discussion occurred to suggest that a student’s program take a specific
focus, as the proposal has a lot of breadth? And, when such is identified would a
more multi-disciplinary consideration to the electives that a student completes be
coordinated with faculty in that focus area?
Will there be any requirement for some courses to be taken outside of
Anthropology, especially when the student has previous work only in the Social
Sciences (versus FST, NES or Public Health).
Comments:
The graduate minor should be designed with greater focus. A graduate minor would
likely require courses outside of the Liberal Arts College. Is there a thesis option?
We emphasize that the required (for the minor) course, Nutritional Anthropology
(ANTH 539) needs to be definitive about the licensed practices within the field of
nutrition. We appreciate that the syllabus includes distinctions between scopes of
practice for dietitians, nutritionists and anthropologists. Dietary assessment of
individuals (and making recommendations, particularly disease related) is under
the scope of practice of a dietitian or other qualified health professional, while a
more cultural and community assessment perspective seems more suitable for
anthropologist. (And perhaps more so with some background in epidemiology and
disease, which is available through Public Health) Even within the Health and
Human Sciences College, the legally defined practice distinctions have to be
communicated among our students who are not always aware of their scope of
practice.
Several nutrition courses have pre-requisites that only NES and Public Health
majors may have. We are assuming that students within our College may choose
this FCSJ option and then meet their electives with those. We would recommend
that students getting either the certificates or graduate minor (regardless of their
major) have an Introductory Nutrition and Life Cycle Nutrition course as prerequisites) Some chemistry background may also be necessary to interpret research
literature.
The field of food and nutrition is one that can be riddled with falsehoods, as many
believe that we all know something because we eat. We can find in the literature,
both food and nutrition information or statements made with no supportive
evidence or the tendency to draw conclusions without sufficient evidence. Getting a
background and understanding of evidence-based food and nutrition science would
provide some assurance that graduate students with an FCSJ minor are more likely
to be able to recognize and promote sound information.
Hello Joan,
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on your proposed
Food and Culture curriculum. Due to contemporary interest in food
sourcing and production (organic, local, sustainable), there is a
heightened awareness that is translating into increased enrollments for
the food science discipline across the United States. Public interest
in the origins of food has certainly increased over the last decade, and
the local food movement is particularly strong in the Pacific Northwest.
There were several concerns raised by faculty in Food Science &
Technology. Given the natural biological and chemical complexity of
foods and their nutritional components, it was felt that the proposed
curriculum was lacking the basic foundational science for students to
have an appreciation of current issues. Your curriculum is designed to
emphasize societal issues, such as economic or ethnic inequality - but
to make it a university-level certificate suggests a need to present a
broader perspective that includes the technological side of the story as
well as more in-depth college-level understanding of basic biochemistry,
nutritional, and toxicological sciences as they relate to food. For
example, a student's perspective of "food security" should include some
understanding of the importance of processing for food preservation, the
role of genetics (traditional and molecular) in meeting food needs, the
nutritional equivalency/difference and safety among organic, traditional
and processed foods. Faculty's impression of the readings listed in the
syllabus of WR383 Food Writing was that various viewpoints on food,
history and culture are included, as well as a representation of the
viewpoint of critics of industrial food systems (e.g. Michael Pollan),
however that they fail to provide significant exposition of food
technologies. (The course description states: "will also address food
science and food studies from a historical and cultural background.") A
suggestion was that this course should have as prerequisite a completion
of a Bac core requirement in science, preferably including chemistry or
modern biology courses.
As expressed by others, I am also unclear about the purpose and
potential employer demand for certificates or minors in Food and
Culture. While preparation of students to bridge the physical and human
sciences is important, in order for the bridging to be successful,
students must have a solid understanding of both aspects. Our students
are also telling us that they want more curriculum involving healthful
foods, product development, business, and leadership programs that will
make them more competitive or fill an unmet need in the food system
workforce. If the certificates are intended to prepare our students to
work in either the food production or regulatory arenas, I believe that
our students would be much better prepared if courses were required in
production agriculture, economics, nutrition, food technology, food
safety and public health. The food system is changing rapidly both
locally and globally. I encourage you to consider adding this
additional content to the certificate proposal.
In your curriculum where upper-division Food Science courses are being
proposed as electives, many of our Food Science courses are not
appropriate or have significant prerequisite requirements. (This
reiterates the need for stronger foundational science preparation for
students electing the proposed curriculum.) For example, FST 424/524
Food Formulation Chemistry is no longer being taught, and enrollment in
the brewing and wine courses (FST 461 Brewing Analysis, FST 466 Wine
Production Principles, FST 467 Wine Production, Analysis and Sensory
Evaluation) is restricted to FST majors and minors only. Our early
experience was that students who took these courses without the
prerequisites were vastly unprepared and withdrew mid-term. The nature
and reasons for enrollment restrictions in some of our courses should be
clearly communicated to all students interested in this program.
An additional class that would provide a foundation and technical
literacy related to basic concerns about food safety, especially
pesticides, pathogens, preservatives and adulterants in foods is taught
in the Environmental & Molecular Toxicology department: Tox 429 Toxic
Substances in Foods. It addresses the toxicology and epidemiology of
human exposures to pesticides and food toxicants. However it has
prerequisite requirements: BB 350 or BB 450 or BB 490.
One of our classes that would provide students a general background on
the concepts, regulations and control over the processing and
distribution of food is FST 421 Food Law. There are no required
prerequisites and the class is a Bacc core class. FST 260 Food Science
and Technology in Western Culture explores food processing and
preservation within the context of historical and societal influences on
food choices and what we eat. It is also a Bacc core class. FST 360
Food Safety and Sanitation is also a valuable inclusion, as food safety
is a preeminent but frequently misunderstood issue among the general
public. Other classes that could fill the role of providing background
information include: FST210 Fruit and Vegetable Processing, FST 212
Dairy Processing, and ANS 251 Principles of Animal Foods Technology.
A Food Science faculty member (J. Antonio Torres) who is listed as an
affiliate faculty in the proposed Food and Culture program asked that
this be changed, since the topic listed is no longer covered in FST 495
Food Packaging.
Please let me know if you have questions or would like to discuss these
ideas further. Thank you again for the opportunity to provide input.

Bob, Russ, Anita, Joan, Cary, Susan,
Thanks to each of you for your positive response to the email last week.
In his response, Cary offered to help in advancing this idea, and has
graciously agreed to organize and host the first meeting.
I had a conversation yesterday with Faye Chadwell, University Librarian,
who mentioned that she is working with Anita on creating an Oregon
Explorer site around the theme "Farm to Table". This is clearly related
and could be a great support for both the on- and off-campus learning
about the local and global food system. She is interested in being kept
in the loop on the evolution of this idea.
Thanks to Cary for moving this forward.

Subject: An addendum and an offer RE: Category 1 proposal Food and
Culture - liaison
In my not-very-well articulated challenge to my colleagues in CAS
(below) sent out earlier this week, I speculated that OSU does not offer
a course that is an introduction to the food system (a "Food Systems
101/401/501: Local to Global Food Webs") that would introduce students
to the "fundamental building blocks" related to the production,
processing, marketing, and distribution of food. It occurs to me that
such a multi-disciplinary course could have a substantial draw among
both students and the broader (Ecampus/Extension) community,
particularly in Oregon given the wide interest in foods and local foods.
I believe that such a course or series of courses could greatly
strengthen the SLCS proposal but has a value beyond the Food and Culture
proposal.
If there is interest in exploring the development of such a course
(on-campus, online, Extension) , I would be happy to organize or help
organize a meeting to discuss this. I believe that a cross-listed X
course would be a good way to start. I also think that the course would
be stronger if both CAS and CLA faculty (and perhaps faculty from other
college) were involved in its development. Please let me know if you are
interested in this idea.

Subject: RE: Category 1 proposal Food and Culture - liaison
Joan,
Thanks for asking the Rural Studies Program to comment on this draft
proposal. I am very supportive of the further development of the
graduate minor in Food and Culture, which I believe fills a valuable
niche in the market of ideas at OSU. There is a huge interest in food
systems in Oregon and the nation , particularly in local food, in just
and sustainable food systems, on food insecurity. This minor would be a
valuable addition to the OSU portfolio by helping students understand
both the cultural dimensions of the food system and the distressing
problem of food insecurity.
I am less clear about the purpose, scope and design of the certificates
in Food and Culture. If the hope is that the certificates will prepare
students to work in and on the food system at a local or global level, I
believe the certificates would be much stronger if they required courses
in production agriculture and the economics of the food system. It may
be, of course, that courses that provide these building blocks and that
are appropriate for the students in your proposed program might have to
be developed at OSU. It is difficult for me to imagine, however, that
certificate holders would be very effective working in and on the food
system, and particularly in changing the food system, without these
basic building blocks. If you agree with this assessment, I would
encourage you to consider adding some content along these lines to the
certificate proposal. I would be happy to have a discussion about this
with you. The CAS department heads may have thoughts about this that
they share with you as well. I have not surveyed what is available
nationally in this area, but I imagine that a certificate program that
was strong in both food AND culture would be very attractive and would
fill the niche that I believe you are trying to fill very well.
I was pleased to see the Rural Studies courses among the courses
included as electives. While RS 513X may in future years include more
discussion of food systems and could be left in as an elective, the
current offering has only a very limited discussion (one class session)
on agriculture, and RS 512X paid practically no attention to agriculture
and should probably not be listed.
Thanks again for giving the Rural Studies Program an opportunity to
comment on your proposal.

Bob, Russ, Joan, Susan,
As promised, here is a summary of what I heard this morning about
developing a graduate course on food systems.
We talked about offering a 3 hour AREc/FST/RS/...599 course next Fall
(or Winter) that would bring faculty from the various departments to
provide an introduction to the "food system". It was good to learn that
CAS is supportive of this effort.
+++++++++++++++++
XX 599 "Introduction to Food Systems: Global, Regional, Local"
Week 1: Introduction to Food Systems (Weber and others)
*The geography of food: overview of geographic extent of food
systems (global, regional, local)
*Different perspectives on the food system: producer, consumer,
processor, transporter, wholesaler, retailer, farmers market vendor,
food assistance provider, policymaker
*How different disciplines contribute to an understanding of
food systems: biological/ecological sciences, social sciences,
humanities
Weeks 2-3: Crop Production (Karow) (crop eco-zones, soils, climates,
warm/cold season crops, fertilizers, fuels, bioenergy, GMOs, factors
leading to insecurity in food production)
Weeks 4-5: Meat Production: Turf and Surf (Animal
Science/Range/Fisheries and Wildlife?) (similar topics related to animal
agriculture and aquaculture)
Week 6: Food Processing and Preservation (McGorrin) (case studies of
value chain of different food products including, e.g. vegetables and
wheat and fish and chicken..., including value chains involving
different geographic scales from global to local)
Week 7: Food Choices and Foodservice Systems (Cluskey?) (Nutritional
choices, sustainability, obesity, foodservice systems at different
geographic scales...)
Week 8-9: Food Markets and Trade (Capalbo) (how market forces affect the
geographic extent of markets for various food products, how food prices
are determined and why prices are important, how incomes affect food
choices, causes of household food insecurity, the economics of food
product value chains, transportation and marketing of food, global and
national and local food markets....
Week 10: Food and Agriculture Policy (Capalbo?) (trade policy including
NAFTA, domestic and international food assistance, commodity programs
and price supports, land use policy, conservation reserve programs)
Final class session or subsequent roundtable of participating faculty:
Recap of what we learned about the "food system" and what we still don't
understand.
+++++++++++++++++
(There remains some interest in eventually pursuing an undergraduate
class and outreach efforts, but my sense is that we agreed to try out a
graduate class first.) I am happy to keep this moving and to provide
coordination the course, unless one of you wishes to assume that role.
If this comes together, I can explore pitching this to Ecampus to see if
they want to video the lectures for future ecourse development (both
credit and noncredit offerings).
Could you please let me know by Monday April 25:
(1) Are you committed to being responsible for organizing and getting
delivered the course material for the weeks identified for your
"discipline"? (Joan, I did not "assign" you a section but could envision
you making contributions in the first week if you would like to be
involved in this. Let me know what you are thinking.) Who should be
contacted to seek leadership in the "Meat Production" weeks? Mary, are
you still interested after seeing the outline? Do you have suggestions?
(2) What resources do you need to do this?
(3) Do you want your department to be designated as one of the
cross-listed departments offering the 599 course?
(4) We talked about a MWF course with 50 minute classes. If we are
offering it next Fall, we need to schedule it next week, if possible.
What MWF time slot would work best for the students you envision as
being interested in this course?
(5) All we need to schedule this course is a Course designator, a title
and a time. Is the title ok? Suggestions?

Dear Colleagues,
Thank you so much for your comments on our draft proposal for certificates and a
grad minor in Food, Culture and Social Justice. I look forward to beginning a
conversation with several of you tomorrow morning about developing a jointly
taught course introducing liberal arts students and others to the fundamental
building blocks related to the production, processing, marketing and distribution of
food. I have taken the liberty of including this course (which I am calling RS 517
with Bruce Weber’s permission) in the graduate curriculum. As for the
undergraduate curriculum, I have altered the elective structure to include 6 credits
within the College of Liberal Arts and 6 credits outside the College of Liberal Arts. I
have included in this latter category all the Bacc Core courses and others that you
have supplied to me and I have removed the ones that you deemed unacceptable
due to pre-reqs and major restrictions. I have also removed the study abroad option
until it can be studied further.
I have also tweeked the narrative to make clear that our focus is on human beings
and their relation to food, not the science of food and food production. I clarified in
the “Evidence of market demand” section, that I was reporting jobs that Food
Studies graduates from other institutions had obtained because I was impressed
with the variety and with their support for a holistic, culturally-rich approach to
food.
As for the graduate minor and thesis requirement, graduate students choose a
minor in conjunction with their committee in order to support their research for a
thesis or paper. I am most familiar with the Applied Anthropology M.A. which
requires a thesis. I, personally, have chaired eight agrifood-related theses in recent
years where the students would have selected this proposed minor. The
anthropology department currently has several M.A. and Ph.D students who are
interested in a minor in Food, Culture and Social Justice.
I hope this answers your concerns. You will all be receiving a revised proposal when
it is submitted through the curriculum system.
Thanks again for your attention to this proposal in these very busy times.

Subject: "Introduction to Food Systems: Global, Regional, Local" Graduate
Class
Bob, Russ, Joan, Susan,
As promised, here is a summary of what I heard this morning about
developing a graduate course on food systems.
We talked about offering a 3 hour AREc/FST/RS/...599 course next Fall
(or Winter) that would bring faculty from the various departments to
provide an introduction to the "food system". It was good to learn that
CAS is supportive of this effort.
+++++++++++++++++
XX 599 "Introduction to Food Systems: Global, Regional, Local"
Week 1: Introduction to Food Systems (Weber and others)
*The geography of food: overview of geographic extent of food
systems (global, regional, local)
*Different perspectives on the food system: producer, consumer,
processor, transporter, wholesaler, retailer, farmers market vendor,
food assistance provider, policymaker
*How different disciplines contribute to an understanding of
food systems: biological/ecological sciences, social sciences,
humanities
Weeks 2-3: Crop Production (Karow) (crop eco-zones, soils, climates,
warm/cold season crops, fertilizers, fuels, bioenergy, GMOs, factors
leading to insecurity in food production)
Weeks 4-5: Meat Production: Turf and Surf (Animal
Science/Range/Fisheries and Wildlife?) (similar topics related to animal
agriculture and aquaculture)
Week 6: Food Processing and Preservation (McGorrin) (case studies of
value chain of different food products including, e.g. vegetables and
wheat and fish and chicken..., including value chains involving
different geographic scales from global to local)
Week 7: Food Choices and Foodservice Systems (Cluskey?) (Nutritional
choices, sustainability, obesity, foodservice systems at different
geographic scales...)
Week 8-9: Food Markets and Trade (Capalbo) (how market forces affect the
geographic extent of markets for various food products, how food prices
are determined and why prices are important, how incomes affect food
choices, causes of household food insecurity, the economics of food
product value chains, transportation and marketing of food, global and
national and local food markets....
Week 10: Food and Agriculture Policy (Capalbo?) (trade policy including
NAFTA, domestic and international food assistance, commodity programs
and price supports, land use policy, conservation reserve programs)
Final class session or subsequent roundtable of participating faculty:
Recap of what we learned about the "food system" and what we still don't
understand.
+++++++++++++++++
(There remains some interest in eventually pursuing an undergraduate
class and outreach efforts, but my sense is that we agreed to try out a
graduate class first.) I am happy to keep this moving and to provide
coordination the course, unless one of you wishes to assume that role.
If this comes together, I can explore pitching this to Ecampus to see if
they want to video the lectures for future ecourse development (both
credit and noncredit offerings).
Could you please let me know by Monday April 25:
(1) Are you committed to being responsible for organizing and getting
delivered the course material for the weeks identified for your
"discipline"? (Joan, I did not "assign" you a section but could envision
you making contributions in the first week if you would like to be
involved in this. Let me know what you are thinking.) Who should be
contacted to seek leadership in the "Meat Production" weeks? Mary, are
you still interested after seeing the outline? Do you have suggestions?
(2) What resources do you need to do this?
(3) Do you want your department to be designated as one of the
cross-listed departments offering the 599 course?
(4) We talked about a MWF course with 50 minute classes. If we are
offering it next Fall, we need to schedule it next week, if possible.
What MWF time slot would work best for the students you envision as
being interested in this course?
(5) All we need to schedule this course is a Course designator, a title
and a time. Is the title ok? Suggestions?

Dear Colleagues,
Thank you so much for your comments on our draft proposal for certificates
and a grad minor in Food, Culture and Social Justice. I look forward to
beginning a conversation with several of you tomorrow morning about
developing a jointly taught course introducing liberal arts students and
others to the fundamental building blocks related to the production,
processing, marketing and distribution of food. I have taken the liberty of
including this course (which I am calling RS 517 with Bruce Weber’s
permission) in the graduate curriculum. As for the undergraduate
curriculum,
I have altered the elective structure to include 6 credits within the
College of Liberal Arts and 6 credits outside the College of Liberal Arts.
I
have included in this latter category all the Bacc Core courses and others
that you have supplied to me and I have removed the ones that you deemed
unacceptable due to pre-reqs and major restrictions. I have also removed
the
study abroad option until it can be studied further.
I have also tweeked the narrative to make clear that our focus is on human
beings and their relation to food, not the science of food and food
production. I clarified in the “Evidence of market demand” section, that I
was reporting jobs that Food Studies graduates from other institutions had
obtained because I was impressed with the variety and with their support
for
a holistic, culturally-rich approach to food.
As for the graduate minor and thesis requirement, graduate students choose
a
minor in conjunction with their committee in order to support their
research
for a thesis or paper. I am most familiar with the Applied Anthropology
M.A.
which requires a thesis. I, personally, have chaired eight agrifood-related
theses in recent years where the students would probably have selected this
proposed minor. The anthropology department currently has several M.A. and
Ph.D. students who are interested in a minor in Food, Culture and Social
Justice.
I hope this answers your concerns. You will all be receiving a revised
proposal when it is submitted through the curriculum system.
Thanks again for your attention to this proposal in these very busy times.
