GAY RODEO EXHIBIT COMES TO UO PG 8 OREGON DOMINATES USC AT THE COLISEUM PG 11

RESEARCHERS FROM UO WENT TO EXTREME LENGTHS TO REVEAL NEW INFORMATION ABOUT HOW TIDEWATER GLACIERS ARE MELTING QUICKER — MUCH QUICKER — THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT.

OSPIRG Students is the state’s oldest student-directed and funded nonproﬁt started in 1971. We trained students to be effective activist and win a greener, healthier future for us all. Since our start, we’ve done everything from passing Oregon’s Coal to Clean bill, to protecting $2.6 billion of the Pell Grant. This term, we’re continuing our work to put Wildlife Over Waste by banning foam cups and takeout containers here in Eugene and across the state. Thanks to everyone who come by our giant turtle tables last year and wrote a letter to Oregon Senator Prozanski, he voted yes for our bill! The thing that makes us effective is that we’re funded by all of you! Every two years students at UO vote to reaﬃrm our funding. We’re funded by students chipping-in $1.75 per term, and last year over 80% of Ducks voted yes for OPSIRG—so thanks! We pooled this money statewide and hire professional staff to work for students. Expert staff give students the skills and resources to make a difference here on campus, and old in Salem and Washington D.C. where decision are made. OSPIRG will refund any UO student who does not wish to fund OSPIRG. Students may request a refund between 9:00am and 5:00pm, Wednesday 11/6 through Friday 11/8 at the EMU North Entrance. Please bring your student ID. Feel free to also stop by if you are interested in volunteering or interning for course credit, or top sign our petition to put Wildlife over Waste.

VERYTHING UO

Deep mahogany wood met by green carpet and eggshell walls characterizes the early 20th century home as something vintage. Despite the classic aesthetics, the building has a modern function — trauma center and crisis call line that newly opened in August. According to the Treatment Advocacy Center, someone with untreated mental illness is 16 times more likely to die in a police encounter. KVAL reported that homelessness in Lane County is up 32% from last year. These vulnerable groups are the focus of White Bird Clinic. White Bird Clinic, a multi-faceted social service provider, will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2020. With that milestone, the clinic is already underway with expansion projects. Their list includes growing their primary care facilities, relocating their dentistry office and expanding their accessibility for trauma care — including opening a new facility on West 7th Avenue. When White Bird Clinic opened in 1970, it had a mission in mind: “to respond to some of the fallout of the 1960s,’’ according to their website. Its original intention to serve those feeling “disenfranchised or alienated from the mainstream system” is still alive and well, Fund Developer Chris Hecht said. “The counterculture echoes down,” he said, speaking of the environment of mainstream organization distrust. “We the people could do better for ourselves and each other.” White Bird’s volunteer base is made up of around 400 community members, according to Crisis Office Manager Loretta

McNally. Volunteers vary in age from college students to the elderly, as well as those in the allied professions like social workers. “It’s the top and bottom of the spectrum,” McNally said, “young anarchists and old hippies.” Phoenix Guyette, a recent graduate from the Family and Human Services Program at the University of Oregon, is a volunteer coordinator. She became involved with White Bird Clinic in 2014 and has been a formal employee for four years. Guyette said White Bird Clinic provides opportunities for students to “get to know how to work in the field” by serving the community’s more vulnerable groups. “It’s a great opportunity to give back to the community,” Guyette said. White Bird Clinic assists patients in registering for and understanding their options concerning health insurance. Oregon Health Plan, the state’s Medicaid program, helps “pay for low income Oregonians’ healthcare,” according to its website. Trillium Community Insurance, provided under OHP, will no longer be in-network with PeaceHealth as of Jan. 1, 2020. Trillium and PeaceHealth have both confirmed, despite PeaceHealth’s statement received by KLCC that “nothing changes today.” PeaceHealth is the region’s largest hospital network and healthcare provider, reports KLCC. White Bird Clinic provides service to help people sign up for the Oregon Health Plan and understand their rights and options. The PeaceHealth decision “won’t impact our services,” Guyette said, as White

Bird Clinic will still accept community healthcare options like Trillium. Hecht voiced the intention of White Bird Clinic to compensate for, and offset, the effects of PeaceHealth’s decision. With that offset comes the plans to expand their reach and their capabilities. As their dental program expands to their new Pearl Street location, White Bird Clinic says they will increase care by 75%. “We won’t have to turn anyone away,” McNally said. The building that once housed both their dental and medical programs will have room to expand, she explained. “Dental moves, and medical will take both floors.” The White Bird Clinic program CAHOOTS, or Crisis Assistance Helping Out On The Streets, has made national headlines. Teams of two — one EMT and one trained crisis worker — travel in a van to help intervene in cases of medical emergency or disturbance. On Oct. 23, CBS Evening News broadcast a segment, as a part of their series “Stop the Stigma,” highlighting CAHOOTS. That story drew attention to the clinic from across the country. They’ve been receiving calls from Colorado, San Francisco, New York City and Chicago, McNally said, “all in the past week.” White Bird Clinic, according to McNally, is executing on goodwill residing in the community. All these years later, their success is still dependent on the community’s compassion. “We wouldn’t be here 50 years later without it,” McNally said.

A GLIMPSE INTO GAY RODEO

AT THE MUSEUM OF NATURAL AND CULTURAL HISTORY BY SARAH-MAE MCCULLOUGH Who do you picture when you hear the word “cowboy”? The typical portrayal 一 often white and heteronormative 一 doesn’t tell the complete story of the West, according to Craig Miller, a folklorist who studied gay rodeo during the 1990s. The International Gay Rodeo Association was formed in 1985 to dispell these sterotypes about who has a role in rodeo. Today its events, open to all but specifically welcoming LQBTQ participants, are broadcasted around the world. But when gay rodeo began taking form in the 1970s, this wasn’t the case. Even as it grew to make up the second-largest rodeo circuit in the world, it was often kept on the down low by participants who didn’t want to expose themselves to discrimination. “There were contestants who rode under a pseudonym or who requested that no photos be taken,” Miller said. “Some feared harassment from other rodeo circuits where they rode” or discrimination from their home town that would deprive them of their home and livelihood. Earlier this fall, Miller presented his paper, “Gay Rodeo; a Celebration of Western Urban Heritage and Urban Gay Culture,” in the gallery of the University of Oregon’s Museum of Natural and Cultural History. Blake Little’s black-and-white photographs of cowboys and cowgirls from the same era lined the walls. “I’m really excited to see so many beautiful photographs on something that was really ignored for so many years,” Miller said. Little’s exhibit, ‘Photographs from the Gay Rodeo,’ opened on Sept. 6 and will run through Jan. 19. It displays 41 photographs; some are classic portraits while others catch riders mid-action or give more intimate behind-the-scenes glimpses of the event. As

a rodeo rider and photographer, Little offers an inside look at a little-known world. “Back then, I questioned if I was a ‘real’ cowboy because in the back of my mind, I always felt like an observer 一 and photography was my first passion,” he said. “But my unique situation allowed me to document the growing sport of gay rodeo from the inside, along with the thrills and personal challenges of fulfilling my cowboy dreams.” Little’s photographs capture moments of gay rodeo from Oklahoma to California between 1988 and 1992 when the movement was taking off. In the 1990s, Miller joined him as one the first people permitted to document gay rodeo. The rodeo events he attended were “a unique community celebration” that blended western and gay culture; the symbolic rainbow flag and pink traingle were just as prominent as boots, saddles and fringe. During the grand entry that opened each event, participants led riderless horses with boots reversed in the stirrups to represent late rodeo riders. “This very poignant part of the grand entry has become emotional because of the dozens of gay rodeo cowboys who were lost to AIDS just in the past decade,” Miller said. While the events Miller attended included many of the steer, horse and roping events found in traditional rodeo, the camp events were the most “singularly characteristic of gay rodeo.” “These events are not only spectator events, but they also provide the gay community the opportunity to respond with humor to the sterotyping which has victimized them for generations,” he said. Steer decorating plays with the generalization that gay men are inherently creative and artisitic.

Goat dressing 一 in which teams of two race to fit a pair of men’s jockey shorts on the back legs of a goat 一 “attacks the stereotype that gay men are fixated on sex.” But the most enlightening camp event is the Wild Drag Race, Miller said. Teams of one man, one woman and one person dressed in drag cooperate to help the drag king or queen mount a steer and ride it across the finish line. “This is by far the most popular event in gay rodeo. It uses humor, theater and rough action to incorporate the most incongruent elements of urban gay culture with rural lifestyles,” Miller said. When the “rough and tumble cowboys and cowgirls” of the west reappear in drag outfits to perform rodeo events, different aspects of their identities are integrated rather than divided or pitted against each other. Miller also noted that “the team structure of the wild drag race also breaks the stereotype that lesbians, effeminate men and masculine men do not respect each other.” Little agrees that this supportive culture 一 even between competitors 一 “was the most memorable and rewarding thing about rodeo.” Gay cutlure in the west “has always been agressively ignored,” Miller said and gay individuals escaping intolerant families or socieities, women ranching without men and marginalized communities accomplishing difficult labor are often overlooked. “Because rural gays and lesbians are invisible in the history and contemporary culture of the American west, their existence as a community has been very difficult to identify,” he said. But projects like Miller’s research and Little’s exhibit can help fill this void in our perception of the wild west.

Though it was focused solely on one glacier, the study provides scientists around the world a newer framework on which to study tidewater glaciers and their melting processes. (Courtesy of Dave Sutherland)

WHAT LECONTE IS TELLING US ABOUT HOW GLACIERS MELT WORLDWIDE BY BRYCE DOLE Somewhere, looming in the darkness, was LeConte Glacier. The towering face of ice dwarfed a small fishing vessel — the Steller — that came from nearby Petersburg, Alaska. Aboard were 12 scientists and more than $500,000 worth of equipment. Their goal was to understand how tidewater glaciers — glaciers that end in the ocean — melt underwater due to factors like warming ocean temperatures. The study, which was published in July, concluded the rate of melt is faster than previously thought — 100 times faster. For days on end, they did nothing but gaze at LeConte, studying and documenting its every crack and crevice — an ominous, jagged landscape with scintillating shades of blue and white. But now, in the late evening, all that indicated its presence was the far-off crackling sound of shifting crevasses in the high wall of PA G E 6

ice. “It felt scary, for sure,” Dr. Dave Sutherland, a professor in oceanography from the University of Oregon and the study’s lead author, said. It wasn’t uncommon for the crew to see large chunks of ice split off from the head of LeConte — a process called calving — and crash into the water. But every now and then, the calving could become dangerously large, placing the crew, the boat and the equipment at risk. “You often see a calving event before you hear it,” Sutherland said. “So if a big one happened that night, we wouldn’t have had much warning.” In that moment was an opportunity. The icebergs surrounding LeConte, once a barrier between the scientists and their subject, had dispersed. Now, all that was left to do was dangle expensive equipment off the side of

the boat by a long metal pole, drive slowly parallel to LeConte and get a perfect picture. Using sonar signals from a device that typically measures ocean depth, the team created 3D images of LeConte’s underwater features and movements. “Yeah, it worked, and we got good data,” Sutherland said, laughing. “But whether it was entirely worth the risk, I’m not really sure.” Sutherland has lived and dived near coastlines for the majority of his life, giving him the soft gaze and curly hair of a surfer. He’s a tall man who’s developed a passion for studying the relationship between glaciers and the ocean. The walls of his office are adorned with photos and paintings from his various expeditions to remote glaciers in Greenland and Alaska. “What has been important to me is doing something that I feel good about

in a day-to-day job,” Sutherland said. “I like the idea of science — the idea of learning new things and pushing the boundaries and observing the world.” For Sutherland and the team, the process of gathering data and imagery in the study was grueling. Day or night, through rain, sleet, wind and cold, the team worked 12-hour shifts for two weeks at a time during field expeditions in August 2016 and May 2017. And due to the size of the boat and the clutter of technology, there was only enough space for half the crew to sleep at one time. The environment could also prove dangerous for the team’s expensive equipment. When larger calving events and patches of ice threatened the safety of the boat and crew, the captain, without much warning, would have to turn his boat around and flee, sometimes with equipment still near the water. Using metal poles, the

cameras that captured the movement team worked frantically to push away of the glacier and calved-off icebergs icebergs that could easily strip away as it flowed into the ocean. Time lapse their sonar device and send it plunging footage captured on the ridge was into the depths. In moments like these, essential in calculating where, and tensions rose between the team and how quickly, ice was peeling off from the captain.

OPINION

GAME DAY BRINGS OUT THE WORST IN PEOPLE BY ANDREW STEVENS Students hold signs at College GameDay in Eugene. (Sarah Northrop/Emerald)

I stepped onto my concrete stoop in the morning to see a small dried up pool of vomit and six or seven bright yellow hats with their tags still attached piled in the dirt. It was Sunday, the day after a University of Oregon gameday, which left its mark across Eugene. I love my Ducks, do not get me wrong, but I think it is about time we as a school have a conversation about behavior on gameday. Having recently turned 21, I am no stranger to drinking, so I understand the allure of a gameday and frequently participate in the festivities myself. That being said, last weekend I bore witness to a few too many fights or almost fights and a disturbing amount of overly intoxicated adults. That’s right — I am not here to just point a finger at college students indulging in school spirit and making the most of our green and yellow holiday, but also their parents and the Eugene regulars who take gamedays as an opportunity to act immature. Gamedays act as a green light for public intoxication and that is nothing new, but it is only recently that I have felt like it negatively impacted

my day. My apartment is on the ground level of my building, which certainly does not help, but that does not mean I enjoy being serenaded by the whooping and shrieking of Duck fans all day long. You would think late evening games would mean quiet mornings, but you would be very wrong. It is called gameday for a reason, not game afternoon or morning, and people celebrating all day reflects that. The next item of business is the profuse littering that occurs. Like I mentioned before, when I stepped outside my apartment that morning, I saw quite a few of the hats that were handed out in the stadium strewn across the ground. These hats fall into what I like to call UO sanctioned littering — that includes any items handed out to drunk people in the stadium. I am very grateful that UO gives us the benefit of the doubt when handing out knick-knacs, but it should be clear by now that more of them will end up in the river or on the sidewalk than in someone’s home or trash can. Of course I cannot neglect to mention the

alcohol and food litter that ends up everywhere. Takeout boxes, cans and bottles are in high supply, something that I am sure is not unique to Eugene. It is gross and sad to see nonetheless. Then there is the spike of violence. While at a bar the night of gameday, I had more than one drunk adult man try and create some sort of altercation with me or another bystander. Being as aversive to conflict as I am, it was easy to avoid the situation, but not everyone was so lucky. Two kids I know got jumped by someone and ended up in the hospital that night, and I hate to say it, but they are definitely not the first. Of the issues I brought up, it is the violence and littering that I think are the most pressing. Next game day, consider drinking less and actually throwing away your cans and bottles. Remember it’s not usually a sober person who sends people to the hospital for school spirit. I think something needs to change eventually or there will be far reaching consequences for all of UO. I love gameday and it’s time we started treating it as the privilege it really is.

AFTER A SHAKY FIRST QUARTER,

OREGON GOES ON TO DOMINATE USC 56-24 BY GABRIEL ORNELAS• TWITTER @GABE_ORNELAS LOS ANGELES – Oregon needed to flush out what transpired in the first quarter. USC, on its opening drive, drove down the field in 16 plays for 81 yards and capped it off with a passing touchdown to put the Ducks behind 7-0 early in the game. USC would follow up its opening drive with a field goal to put Oregon down 10-0 at the end of the first quarter. Oregon’s offense only accumulated 16 total yards in the first quarter, and the Ducks amassed more penalty yards (26) than offensive yards in the first quarter. Following a turbulent first 15 minutes on both sides of the ball, No. 7 Oregon (8-1, 6-0 Pac-12) dominated USC (5-4, 4-2 Pac-12) and gave the Trojans their worst home loss since 2009 by a score of 56-24. “We started a little bit slow, but once we got going, we really got going,” head coach Mario Cristobal said. “We played with a lot of emotion and passion, and sometimes too much, but found a way to overcome some of those selfinflicted issues.” The Ducks’ emotion turned into

negative results in the first half, but key plays were able to help turn the momentum on their side. After a 10-0 start by the Trojans, Oregon answered with a seven-play, 80-yard drive that resulted in a rushing touchdown by Justin Herbert to bring the Ducks within three. The drive was set up by a Verone McKinley III interception. Oregon’s defense, following the McKinley interception, began to turn the tide for the Ducks. USC was nearing the end zone on the Oregon 3-yard line when the game flipped to Oregon’s favor. USC quarterback Kedon Slovis rolled right to avoid pressure from La’Mar Winston Jr., but Winston was able to grab hold of Slovis’ legs. Drayton Carlberg came from behind to knock the ball out of Slovis’ hands to force the fumble. “I just keep pursuing to the ball. We really emphasize pursuit,” Carlberg said. “It meant a lot. Our defense talks a lot about three or nothing in the red zone. When I can help that out, it’s big to me.” Carlberg helped set up a nine-play, 98-yard drive to give Oregon a 14-10

lead. Slovis’ rough game continued, as on the next drive, he was picked off by Brady Breeze, who returned it for a touchdown to give Oregon a quick 21-10 lead. USC responded with a touchdown of its own to cut down the lead right before halftime. Oregon again responded with a 100-yard kickoff return by Mykael Wright to swing the game in Oregon’s favor heading into halftime. “They provided all the momentum. Those two plays took us into the locker room with a lot of juice,” Cristobal said. “Those two things were monstrous in terms of momentum.” Oregon came out of the half and scored four straight touchdowns. The only thing that briefly slowed down Oregon’s attack was an injury to Herbert. Herbert took a helmet to the knee from a defensive player that kept him down on the field for some time. Herbert walked off the field under his own power, and he returned two plays later. Herbert capped off Oregon’s drive with a 15-yard

touchdown pass to Juwan Johnson. “I knew it wasn’t anything bad. I was just down there in a lot of pain,” Herbert said. “Didn’t want it to be that big of a deal.” Herbert’s injury didn’t seem to bother him, as he completed 21 of his 26 passes for 225 yards and three touchdowns, along with one rushing touchdown. Herbert completed 20 of his final 21 passes after starting the game 1-for-5. All three of Herbert’s touchdown passes found Juwan Johnson, who finished the game with three scores and 106 yards. “Herbert is a warrior and a true competitor,” Troy Dye said. “Whatever 10 does we follow, that’s our real leader of the team. He really showed the team how to fight.” The Ducks now enter their second and final bye week of the season. Oregon, following a statement road win, will await its first ranking for the College Football Playoff on Tuesday. “Without question, I feel that we need to be in that conversation,” Cristobal said. “I’m not going to shy away from that. That’s just a matter of fact.” M O N D AY, N O V E M B E R 4 , 2 0 1 9
