Professor, Sociology and Founding Director, Oregon Survey Research Laboratory
From 1992 to 2003, I founded UO's Oregon Survey Research Laboratory, managing 280+ projects, bringing in about $8 million in small grants and contracts, developing and documenting protocols, gathering data on basic methodological questions, and hiring and training staff, a staff of about 30, of whom about 15 were in fully benefited positions (including one postdoc, three Faculty Fellows, four Graduate Research Assistants, plus about six more graduate students who completed their PhDs while in OSRL). I returned to basic research, writing, and teaching with huge relief. Two years later, the two guys who replaced me proved they were not up to the task, and UO closed OSRL. For a history of OSRL, see: http://survey.rgs.uky.edu/nnsp/newsletters/nnsp42.pdf . Data and reports from 177 of OSRL's studies are archived with the University Library's Scholar's Bank.
