A Pacific University student wearing a tie, shorts and sandals but no shirt, standing on a table to protest the dress code, surrounded by other students. Some of the other students are also protesting: one woman, identified as Laurie Collins, wears a placard that reads: "We protest." Others are either observing or opposing the protest. This photograph appears to have been staged in order to dramatize the protest, possibly for use in a publication. A stamp on the verso identifies it as having been created by Pacific's Office of Public Information (i.e. its publicity department). It appears to have been taken in a student lounge, possibly in McCormick Hall.
The photograph likely dates from circa March 1967. In that month, about 150 male students conducted a sit-in demonstration against Pacific's dinner dress code, which required "all men to wear a jacket and tie to dinner and women to wear either a dress or skirt as well as heels twice a week" (The Index, Mar. 6, 1967). This is one of several photographs that were taken on the same occasion; see also PUApic_015907 and PUApic_015908.

Brim was serving as Pacific University's Chair of the Board of Trustees at the time this photograph was taken. He is wearing a tie with tiny gold "qilin" on it; a reference to Pacific University's qilin mascot, "Boxer." A version of this image was published on the cover of the Fall 1994 issue of Pacific's Alumni Magazine. The caption provided there states, "Trustee Board Chairman A.E. 'Gene' Brim considers his service to Pacific a rewarding experience. Photo by Jerome Hart." An interview with Brim was also published within that issue.
Pacific University's President Robert F. Duvall (left), with three other people who may be faculty or guests of the university, in 1994. They appear to be standing in the lobby of the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. Very likely, this photograph was taken during the Tom McCall Forum, an annual political debate featuring prominent guest speakers which was hosted by Pacific University. The 1994 Tom McCall Forum was held on Feb. 27 at the Schnitzer. The debaters, John Sununu and Pierre Salinger, do not appear to be in this photograph.
Alumni and/or staff of Pacific University, participating in the creation of a Time Capsule on October 23, 1993. They are placing copies of newspapers and magazines into a cement box. (For a related image taken at the same event, see PUA_PeoSlides_573.) This event was part of Pacific's 1993 Homecoming and Reunion. Two time capsule events were listed on the event schedule that year: this images relates either to the "0 year" time capsule, or the Class of 1968's 25-year capsule. It is unclear where the time capsule was to be placed. They are standing just east of Marsh Hall; Taylor-Meade Performing Arts Center appears directly behind them.
Per Pacific's Alumni Department, the time capsules buried that year were removed from the ground sometime prior to 2006, possibly due to the construction of Tran Library, which was nearby. "They were then stored in the basement at Abbott Alumni Center. Both were opened in 2018 and the contents given to the Archives, though much of the 1968 time capsule was destroyed beyond hope by mildew/mold."
