Portland State geologists Len Palmer and Paul Hammond, six PSU students, climber Robert Rogers, and a Today Show crew are flown to Mount St. Helens's crater rim.

PSU student Tom Hammond—Paul’s son—shoots 16mm film of the visit, later used in this TV ad, which aired that spring.

Kudos to our fabulous speakers from yesterday evening, Evan Howington of PSU & @anomalily.net Lillian Karabaic of @opb.org! Rural transit is a crucial lifeline, and this special edition of OPB's Stop Requested Live in Partnership with PSU highlighted its importance. Thanks to all who attended!

Thanks for the shout-out, @bikeloudpdx.bsky.social, and many thanks to @anomalily.net, our wonderful speaker from yesterday evening!

Brilliant Lillian Karabaic on why the bus is a lifeline + important third space in rural towns. Fund our transit!

Riders will plan their lives around an infrequent bus. But it has to be predictable.
