  • Exciting news for PSU and downtown Portland!

    President, Portland State University

    This week, we announce the results of PSU’s Place Matters Design Competition, an effort to identify and implement large and small changes all aimed at creating a more vibrant and connected campus for PSU and downtown Portland. What the jury liked most about the Walker Macy Collaborative is their understanding of the goals that PSU wanted to achieve through this effort — strengthening belonging among our community and celebrating PSU’s diversity and uniqueness while also adding energy and meaning to the physical presence of our campus. The Collaborative team includes PSU faculty, alumni and students in addition to design professionals with a strong understanding of how centering equity in design can greatly benefit its impact in implementation. The group recommends a range of placemaking strategies designed to bring the energy of PSU indoor spaces, including classrooms, into the visible realm of the campus. They suggest both elevating and improving existing gathering places — such as the Park Blocks and Urban Plaza — and also envisioning new ones. The proposal includes a site plan calling for a new welcome center in the heart of campus, new gateways to PSUs on the Park Blocks and along Southwest Market Street and the rehoming our popular pop-up skate park, The Courts, to a new location on campus after ground is broken on PSU’s new art building.

  • Earlier this month, the PSU Foundation honored outgoing Board Trustee Tom Fink for 19 years of service. Tom joined the Board in 2005 and, from day one, has been one of our most committed supporters of student success. Over the years, has served on every Foundation board committee possible – Alumni Advocates, Governance, Executive, Philanthropy, Real Estate and Talent Management! Tom and his wife Marilyn have also been the most active connectors of all time for PSU, bringing countless friends and supporters into our PSU circle. Thank you for your remarkable leadership, Tom!

  • You're invited: Learn about the future of performing arts in Portland!   Portlanders have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to shape the future of performing arts in our city and region. The City of Portland recently invited proposals for alternatives to renovating the seismically compromised Keller Auditorium. Portland State University's plan to develop a new performing arts district in the southern part of downtown is now a finalist in this city-run process.    The PSU plan keeps Portland's premier arts venue downtown, allowing Keller Auditorium to remain open and operating during construction. This proposal avoids disruption for theater patrons, lost jobs, and financial loss for arts organizations. It also sparks major development in the central city.    You're invited to learn more about this exciting proposal at an upcoming information session. A virtual option will also be provided.
