1290 PATTERSON ST. EUGENE OR @IDENTITYEUGENE | 541-255-2677

THE HAYWARD MAGIC SHOE COMES ALIVE! STORY BEGINS Hayward had a fascination with shoes that began long before he arrived in Eugene. Before one of his professional races, Hayward came out for his warmups wearing striped socks over his shoes. As soon as the gun went off, Hayward ripped off the socks, revealing a new pair of shoes with spikes on the soles — one of the first known pairs of spiked shoes to ever be used in a track meet. He won by a landslide.

From the first spiked shoes to record breaking moments, read all about Hayward’s rich history in Hayward Field: Legends and Legacy

During the race, a number of nearby retail stores were robbed by a suspect who’d climbed in through the roof. Because of his spiked shoes, Hayward was briefly held and questioned by the local police. He was released soon after, free of any charges.

What is

ASUO? WRITTEN BY SKYLAR ANDERSON PHOTOGRAPHED BY WILL GESCHKE

Ever wonder what the student fees included in

your tuition go towards? Enter the Associated Students of the University of Oregon—better known as ASUO. Keep reading for a deep-dive into what goes into ASUO and how the student government works. ASUO is the university’s student government, where elected student officials help their peers by providing them with a voice in relevant and influential decisions made for both the university itself and its students. When enrolled at UO, students are required to pay a fixed sum called the Incidental Fee (I-Fee). That fee goes towards ASUO and its mission to support student-run groups and organizations across the entirety of campus—along with its principle of being a source of support and guidance for all UO students.

it focuses on coordinating campaigns, overseeing student organizations and approving or vetoing financial decisions that impact the student body. The legislative branch is made up of a 24-member student Senate, where each student member represents one of the academic majors provided at UO, and four studentled finance committees. This branch is in charge of commencing I-Fee funding, ratifying financial committees decisions, writing resolutions and confirming appointees for presidential ASUO positions.

According to its website, “the Associated Students of the University of Oregon (ASUO) strives to provide for the social, cultural, educational, and physical development of its members and for the advancement of their individual and collective interests both within the university and the community at large.” With the student fees summed up, ASUO is allocated a budget of around $17 million each year. This money is then divided up between over 200 student-run organizations, campus events and facilities and student-provided resources such as free public transportation and free sports game tickets. ASUO also arranges financial, creative and leadership services and support for its recognized organizations, playing a critical role in its community. ASUO is divided into three different branches: executive, legislative and judicial. Much like our own state and federal governments, it also follows an array of rules and regulations set in place by the ASUO constitution. The executive branch houses the student body president, vice-president and 24 delegated student leaders, where

14 | Duck Life 2022

The judicial branch, also known as the Constitutional Court, is represented by five student members who are sworn to serve the student body for the entirety of their time at UO. The court is responsible for upholding the ASUO constitution, monitoring the other branches for transgressions and/or fallacies—and reviewing appeals that arise from the same branches.


SAB SABBBB the student activities board

The Student Activities Board is an umbrella organization, made up of five student groups, dedicated to the creation of on-campus events. From guest speakers and film screenings, to live music events and game nights, the board serves the campus community by creating inclusive events, absolutely free. Still have questions?

Freshman

Survival Guide: POST-COVID EDITION

28 | Duck Life 2022


Even with a summer between you, it’s important to consider what tips and tricks are ones to keep on hand when contemplating how to survive your freshman year of college. Although the last few years may seem anything but traditional, recognizing and following new healthy habits that keep you safe without dampening the joy and excitement of the first-year experience is beneficial for both you and your peers. If you’re preparing for college, follow this freshman survival guide to find uber-classic freshman survival tips revamped with safety information and campus guidelines related to COVID-19 so you can have a fantastic and safe freshman year!

Avoid large gatherings or parties Freshman year is all about making connections, but if we’re not all safe and cautious as we move forward in this tentatively post-COVID landscape, it won’t take much to go back into quarantine. Wherever possible, spend time with friends and classmates outdoors or in well ventilated areas— and if you haven’t already, get vaccinated and appropriately boostered! Nobody misses the sticky floors of massive parties, anyway, so next year steer clear of large parties and opt for a smaller group of closer friends for a safer and more personalized experience.

Clean, clean and clean again Now more than ever, it’s critical to make sure that the place you’ll be living in is thoroughly clean and tidy. Not only does this help you stay on track and organized, but it also helps prevent the spread of COVID-19 and your chances of receiving it, as well as any other bothersome sicknesses. In addition, making sure that you yourself are practicing good personal hygiene is essential! Hand sanitizer and hand washing stations can be found all across campus, as well as a plethora of resources for keeping yourself and your space in tip-top health.

Set a sustainable schedule With several different types of class options, creating a sustainable schedule can be helpful with keeping track of deadlines, in-person/remote class meetings and overall time management. Make sure you’re prepared and on time for the different things scheduled in your day, whether they’re in person or on the computer. Online tools such as Google Calendar or a physical planner can be a big help in keeping organized and managing time. It’s also a good idea to make sure you have a reliable internet connection and webcam for those remote classes!

Start building your professional presence right away It doesn’t hurt to start building your resume early! Remote career opportunities are now available across the world, with an array of internships and jobs being advertised almost daily. Getting a head start on your professional presence will set you apart from others while being considered for future opportunities and help you develop more relationships and connections than others. A great way to get started is create a LinkedIn profile; start connecting with and reaching out to professionals in your desired career field!

Get to know your professors We can’t stress this enough! Way too many students don’t take advantage of office hours, where you can recieve one-on-one help from your professors—something that is extremely valuable considering the majority of them have very busy schedules. Developing relationships with your professors can lead to a whole variety of beneficial opportunities. Whether it’s online or in-person, this time with professors can prove to be a huge advantage not only in your coursework but in the long run of academia and networking as well. Each professor structures their time differently, so be sure to check on the class syllabus for open times or personal appointment information.

Living On Campus In the residence halls, you’re close to everything. You’ll meet friends and make memories that will last a lifetime. Excited for move-in? Here are some tips to get you started.

We’ll set you up with a bed, desk, and dresser or closet. Here’s what you should bring.

Don’t double up Check in with your roommate before you move in and compare what you are bringing. You’ll avoid bringing two mini fridges, and you can create a style for your room together!

The necessities Bedding (sheets, comforter, blankets, pillows), storage containers, hangers, small desk lamp, surge protector, desk supplies, laundry basket, detergent, toiletries, towels, and clothing for all types of weather.

Get around easily Bikes are a great way to get around. Bike racks are available throughout campus and secured bike cages are next to many residence halls. Make sure to bring a U-lock and register your bike online at project529.com/Oregon.

Optional, but a good idea Closet organizers, small fan, mini fridge (4.6 cubic feet or smaller), mattress pad, robe, shower caddy, shower shoes, cup, plate, bowl, mug, silverware, inexpensive bike, secure bike lock (U-lock), bike helmet, bike lights, and reflectors.

Bring home with you Decorate your room with a photo collage to remind you of home. Bringing a bit of home with you can really help as you get used to a new place, new classes, and new friends.

For emergencies Flashlight, batteries, and emergency supply kit.

Bring your rain jacket Ducks love the rain, and a nice breathable rain jacket is an investment that you won’t regret!

Decorative Posters, pictures, cork board, adhesive putty (no nails, tacks, or doublesided tape), rug, and throw pillows or blankets. Don’t bring Extension cords, microwaves, toasters, candles, space heaters, and pets (except fish).

A full guide on what to bring (and not bring) can be found at housing.uoregon.edu/whattobring 34 | Duck Life 2022

L

iving in Eugene means that you have beautiful trails, nature reserves and state parks right at your fingertips. It’s so easy (especially after the year we’ve had) to stay locked up at home, but here in Eugene there are so many adventures right outside your door, so get outside and enjoy them!

If there’s only one hike you’ll undoubtedly go on your whole time in Eugene, it’s up Spencer Butte. A Eugene classic, this hike is only a mile to the top, a view which definitely won’t disappoint. The Butte is located on the south side of Eugene, about a 12 minute drive from campus. Hiking the Butte is a perfect free activity with friends and a great opportunity for photo-ops and memories you’ll never forget.

Silver Falls:

Silver Falls is located about an hour and a half from Eugene. This day trip offers an easy walk to a 117 foot waterfall or a 7.2 mile loop spanning 10 falls. The falls are considered one of Oregon’s most beautiful sites, and they make for some Instagram worthy pictures, too. The main hike takes you directly under the largest waterfall and out around the sparkling blue pool at the bottom.


Smith Rock:

Smith Rock is the farthest drive of the list coming in at a whopping 3 hours from Eugene, but definitely a sight worth seeing. You can choose between a variety of hikes ranging from 2 to 7 miles as well as a variety of elevation. The hike with the highest elevation, known as Misery Ridge, takes you up to the top of Smith Rock for the view of a lifetime. It’s not as miserable as it may sound, but you may want to bring some hiking boots because it can get slippery!

Ridgeline Trail System:

The Ridgeline Trail System involves many interconnected trails looping around Eugene and spanning about 12 miles total. Although still in the city, they feel secluded and serene. If you’re looking for a beautiful nature walk through the trees while staying close to home, this is perfect. Accessible on bike or via bus 73 from campus, it’s optimal for getting out for a quick hike at any time of day.

Hobbit Beach Trailhead:

About an hour and a half from Eugene, the Oregon Coast is a must-see. The Hobbit Beach Trailhead is located outside of Florence that takes you on a short hike to a secluded and (generally) private part of the Oregon Coast. The scenic drive along the coast takes you through the city of Florence (if you need any snacks!) and past the Sea Lion Caves. A trip to the beach is a perfect weekend day trip and a great opportunity to make unforgettable memories with friends.

Dorris Ranch:

Located in Springfield, Dorris Ranch is about a 10

minute drive or 20 minute bike from campus. Dorris Ranch is a national historic site that also has a sprawling trail system, one of which spans 4 miles along the Willamette River and to Clearwater Park. The ranch features scenic views, shaded trails, and eleven orchards. This destination is great for walks or runs of any length, and is worth the trek out to Springfield on a weekend.

Pre’s Trail:

If you’re looking for nature at the heart of Eugene, Pre’s trail is the perfect stop for a walk to unwind and recharge. In memory of the Oregon Track Club track star and former Olympian Steve Prefontaine, this 3.4 mile trail is perfect for a run or walk. It’s accessible from campus through Alton Baker Park and requires no car or bike. Taking you past Autzen stadium, a small pond, and a river, it’ll make you forget you’re only a few minutes from your home in the city. Duck Duck Life Life 2022 2021

GAME GAME

DAY

DUCK GEAR (RAIN OR SHINE)

Collect your pom-poms, grab those green and yellow leggings and slap on some face stickers – it’s game day, and it’s time to represent the Ducks. There’s nothing more welcoming than walking in the gates to a sea of green and yellow, so it’s important everyone joins in.You can pick up unique, spirited duck gear of all kinds at the local Hirons or Fred Meyer for a great bargain price, or head over to the Duck Store for name-brand Duck gear! Remember: it may never rain in Autzen stadium, but juuust in case… be prepared, and carry an umbrella or a raincoat with you.

REMEMBER TO HYDRATE!

Regardless of the temperature outside, it can be a pretty tiring job standing in the student section cheering your heart out for four quarters. It’s always an option to grab a quick water from one of the many vendors inside the stadium, or you can save a few dollars and bring your own bottle! Remember to make sure they’re clear and visible, or security won’t let it through the front doors.

SUNSCREEN

Even on the cloudiest day in the stadium, it can take a tough toll on your skin to stand outside with no protection after a long afternoon. Rub some SPF 15 on vulnerable places like your nose, ears or the back of your neck to protect them from the hot sun. For the makeup wearers out there, look for foundations or moisturizers that have SPF built in to make it even easier! Remember to reapply after a few hours for maximum sun protection.

BRING A BUDDY

No one wants to go alone, and the whole day will get better when you’re surrounded by your fellow Ducklings. Bring your friends, a camera to document some sweet group selfies, and arrive early to the game to get a spot in the front—maybe you’ll make it on the big screen. It can get pretty crowded, so have a plan of where to meet if you lose each other, and make sure everyone gets back home safely. Be sure you bring your student ID to get into the student section together!
