I really can't wait to start taking classes at Oregon State. I have been taking environmental classes at Portland Community College and I feel with the degrees and certifications I obtain, I will be a part of a global change to make this world a better place. I am very sure that you can make sustainable choices in any career that you choose, every small step makes a big difference. GO BEAVS!

Hi @oregonizedchaos, We can't wait to have you on board! It's great to have students like you coming from PCC and our other Oregon community colleges that participate in the Degree Partnership Program. You'll find a welcoming atmosphere and you'll be part of the OSU community in no time. And if you're interested in sustainability, you'll find a host of ways to get involved and one of the most engaged student communities at any university anywhere. See you soon!

It doesn't say anything about the university. Just that we change things. Nothing they say relates to the environment at all. Just some fancy pictures to make believe that OSU is on the environmental bandwagon.

@dt1347 We are sorry that you feel that way. Oregon State University is not on the environmental bandwagon. We have had people, programs and research focused on the environment and sustainability for for over 50 years. You can read some interesting stories about our work at poweredbyorange[dot]com

This commercial seems to be aimed at meek suburbanites and hipsters. Why not show our forestry students climbing trees on a mountainside, band students marching, and business students working on the top floor of a portland skyscraper all the while trumpets and strings epically crescendo? This ad makes me think OSU passes out degrees in sidewalk chalk (it is notorious on campus these days). Go Beavs.
