LA GRANDE, Ore. – Pam Frederick’s new role at Eastern Oregon University is to help plot a path to success for students experiencing unforeseen obstacles. In her role as the Student Resource Advocate Frederick functions as a liaison between the students and community services.
“Housing, food, medical needs… I connect students to the resources in the community that can help,” Frederick said.
A former student at EOU, Frederick came from Pohnpei. Pohnpei is an island in the Federated States of Micronesia in the western Pacific Ocean. Her experience can benefit the students, especially the Pacific Islanders who currently attend Oregon’s Rural university.
“I love working directly with the students,” Frederick said. “I can understand what they are going through. I make the time to meet with them to find out what services they may need.”
One month into the new position Frederick said she wants students to know she is here to help, to make a difference if they are experiencing problems. Frederick said she wants her position to work more closely with the faculty, to get the word out about what the Student Resource Advocate can do.
EOU’s Food Pantry operates through the Student Resource Advocate’s office and Frederick said they work closely with the Oregon Food Bank to provide for students in need. Frederick noted that on Friday, May 24, the Advocate’s office will host a Resource Fair to educate students about what services are available to them if they are in need.
The Student Resource Fair will take place Friday, May 24, 2024, from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Hoke Union Main Lounge and the 2nd-floor Community Room.

“When I can help a student, that is why I am here,” Frederick said. “I am here to help students be successful.”
