000042869 520__ $$aMark O. Hatfield was an Oregon politician who held several prominent positions in government, most notably as governor of the State of Oregon (1959 -1967) and as a United States Senator for the State of Oregon (1967-1997). Hatfield was known as a moderate Republican, often breaking with party lines to vote against both the Vietnam War and budget cuts to the NIH during the Clinton Administration. He died in 2011.

In this interview, Hatfield focuses exclusively on his advocacy for health sciences education during his career in the senate. He discusses his role in the establishment of the Oregon Graduate Institute, the revitalization of the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in the 1980s, and the legislative fight to complete the pedestrian bridge between the Veterans Affairs building and the University Hospital in 1992.  Hatfield also provides a brief history of medical education in the state of Oregon.

They are the personal recollections and opinions of the individuals involved and, therefore, may contain offensive language, ideas or negative stereotypes reflecting the culture or language of a person, period or place. Oral histories should not serve as the sole source of information about an institution or particular historical events. These narratives should in no way be interpreted as the official history of Oregon Health & Science University, nor do they necessarily represent the views of the institution.
