In January of 2024, much of the West Coast faced an intense winter storm that blanketed the City of Portland in snow and ice. According to an article by Noelle Crombie with OregonLive, the freeze covered the city in around 1-3 inches of snow, plunging temperatures below freezing for about a week and bringing the city to a halt as roads and sidewalks iced over. I was a naive Californian who had only lived in the city for a few months before the storm.

On just about every block on Portland State’s campus, there is a shop, cafe, restaurant, friend or a person, who aids students and the overall community, while receiving their daily form(s) of caffeination. With this in mind, the Vanguard chose to highlight three incredible, local coffee shops within our campus community: Wild Rose Coffee, Olé Latte Coffee and Case Study Coffee Roasters.

This week at 5th Avenue Cinema—Oregon’s only student-run theater—film curators will be screening Privilege, a film by Yvonne Rainer. Rainer is known for creating thought-provoking films which empower women while challenging traditional storytelling techniques. Through a feminist lens, Privilege focuses on women over the age of 40 before and after menopause. This 1990 documentary explores and exposes power structures which marginalize women by utilizing archival footage and staged confrontations.

A large mural framed by neon light and sculpted roses at the gallery entrance of Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at Portland State (JSMA at PSU) immediately draws the eye. Underneath a bright open sign, a couple of old photos—which look straight out of a family photo album—are on display amid the otherwise alluringly synthetic scene. Labor of Love is currently on view at JSMA at PSU, an exhibition showcasing the works of numerous local and national contemporary artists.
