Introducing our new Editor-in-Chief for this summer!

When Alex Hyatt began at The Barometer, the first thing he did was stumble into a phone interview with Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon.

“I was just emailing his assistant, and when he called me, he said, ‘Hey, I’ll put you on with Senator Wyden now,’” Hyatt said.

A few terms later, Hyatt is preparing to step into the role of Editor-in-Chief on June 16.

Editor’s note: This story has been reposted after a correction was made in the original post.

Kayla Ramirez and Masha Mogylevsky were inaugurated as the new president and vice president of the Associated Students of Oregon State University for the 2025-2026 academic year June 1.

Due to the current pause on ASOSU functions and the suspension of the ASOSU constitution, the start of their positions remains unclear. The shutdown was initially planned to end on May 2, but was extended indefinitely on that date instead.

Oregon State University student government officials have given more insight into why the shutdown was extended again.

University officials and the president of the Associated Students of Oregon State University, Audrey Schlotter, decided to extend the temporary shutdown May 2, with no clear end in sight due to continued concerns surrounding workplace culture, governance and organizational dysfunction.

The shutdown began on Feb. 28, under the idea that it would help to correct alleged harassment and a cited toxic work environment.
