Three students who were in Professor Alex Tizon’s final “Reporting II� class gaze on at messages service goers left on a School of Journalism wall. (Andrew Field)

SOJC faculty share stories on how Professor Alex Tizon changed their lives during memorial service ➥ ANDREW University of Oregon journalism faculty spoke about Professor Alex Tizon as a mentor and journalist who changed the lives of those around him. UO School of Journalism held a memorial on Tuesday for Tizon, who died in his Eugene home on March 23. Students, faculty and staff gathered at 5 p.m. at the foot of Allen Hall’s atrium staircase. They encircled instructors who stepped out and told stories of working with him, inspired by his ability as a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist to evoke a unique sense of humanity in his articles. UO instructor Lisa Heyamoto described how she met Tizon while interning for the Seattle Times in 2001, where he was a staff writer. Stationed at a desk across from his, Heyamoto was falling asleep when he called her out. “I was so embarrassed,â€? she recalled. “But I was a young reporter still finding my voice, and he took me under his wing, and helped guide me when I could not yet see my path.â€? Heyamoto then got a job at the Seattle Times. In her first year, she read Tizon’s story about a high school janitor who became an award-winning fiction writer, instilling a sense of purpose in becoming a journalist. “The story made me realize how meaningful it could be to tell ‘quiet stories about quiet people,’â€? she said, “and for the next ten years, every single time I got stuck as a writer, I would re-read that piece, and it would help me find my way.â€? The Emerald is published by Emerald Media Group, Inc., the independent nonprofit media company at the University of Oregon. Formerly the Oregon Daily Emerald, the news organization was founded in 1900.

When Tizon became Seattle Bureau Chief for the Los Angeles Times, he unknowingly wrote about Heyamoto’s mother and stepfather, massage therapists who started a massage magazine and museum. Their work started to get a lot of press coverage. “Most of the stories were the kind, I’m sure you are familiar with, about ‘wacky couple does wacky thing. Let’s write a wacky story about it,’� Heyamoto said. “But it doesn’t really feel good, from the perspective of the person, when you see something you are passionate about treated in that way.� But Alex’s reporting on it was different. “He actually took the time to understand who they were, and why they were passionate about this unusual subject,� Heyamoto said, “and he wrote a beautiful story that really made a difference in my family’s life.� UO SOJC Professor Scott Maier said that while he was a news reporter in Seattle his editor slapped an article on his desk and ordered him to learn from it. The story was part of a series of articles exposing corruption within a federal housing program for Native Americans — it would win Tizon a 1997 Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting. “This was an incredible story that Alex and his colleagues had worked on, showing how, using federal funds, tribal members were living in palaces up here, while their brethren were living in squalor down below,� Maier said. “It was happening, not ENGAGEMENT EDITOR MARK KELLMAN NEWS EDITORS NOAH MCGRAW MAX THORNBERRY WILL CAMPBELL A&C EDITORS CRAIG WRIGHT CARLEIGH OETH MATHEW BROCK OPINION EDITOR ALEC COWAN SPORTS EDITORS KENNY JACOBY JONATHAN HAWTHORNE JARRID DENNEY

only just in Seattle, but throughout the Northwest and the nation.� Maier said that years later while he was working at the UO he bumped into Tizon in an elevator in Portland. Maier told Tizon that he was teaching at UO, and Tizon — a UO alum — replied, “You have my dream job.� UO would then hire Tizon as an assistant professor at the School of Journalism in 2010, reuniting him with Heyamoto, who was taking her graduate studies. A year later, Heyamoto became a journalism instructor too. For Heyamoto, the greatest thing of all was seeing Tizon instill the same inspiration in students that he brought her throughout her career. “I saw him captivate 400 person J100 lectures without using keynotes. He would stand there and quietly talk, and they were on the edge of their seats, just dying to hear more,� she said. “And this past week, I cried alongside students who were shown a way forward just the same way that I was, and found a guide when they needed it most.� After the event, six of Tizon’s former students lingered by a wall, staring silently at a wall where memorial-goers wrote messages with black and blue markers. “When Alex entered a room, he did it with such grace. When he left a room, he left you wanting more,� one message read. “He was such a force, we all wanted more.�

6 WAYS TO ENJOY Traditional Greek & Indian Food 992 Willamette Street Eugene, OR 97401 (541) 343-9661

SPRING

Spring break is over and the final term of the school year is here. The new season is a great time to check in with yourself and enjoy the beautiful weather. Whether you want to take stock of your winter clothes, cook new foods or just enjoy the sun, here are some ways to kick off spring term with a bang.

1

GO OUTSIDE

With flowers blooming and the sun out more than it was last term, this should be a no-brainer. Go for a walk; take a look at the trees around campus. Study in the EMU amphitheater. Soak up all the Vitamin D you can get. Make up for all the sun you missed during winter term by spending every moment you can outside. For those who face seasonal depression, this is especially important.

2

DEEP CLEAN YOUR APARTMENT

Spring is also a great time for taking stock of your belongings and organizing the physical parts of your life. Spend a day or two cleaning your apartment or dorm. Wash dishes that have been piling up and clean out your fridge. Turn on some music, open your windows and clean surfaces that have accumulated paper and trash. Toss needless papers into the recycling, then take that trash and recycling out. You can even take this time to reorganize your bookshelf or music collection. Is there a house project you have been wanting to do? Do it now before you forget or run out of free time.

3

SELL, DONATE OR REFURBISH OLD WINTER CLOTHES

This goes along with spring cleaning, but if you are the type of person who buys new clothes every season (lucky you!), clear out your old wardrobe. Take stock of what you wear and donate last year’s trends. Take the gently-used clothes you don’t wear and sell them at Buffalo Exchange or other consignment shops in Eugene. Not only does this help you gain some cash, but it also creates room in your closet for spring attire. If you don’t want to part with old clothing, look up ways to refurbish them. You could make a quilt out of old t-shirts or liven up a drab jean jacket by adding some buttons.

4

CELEBRATE SPRING HOLIDAYS

Many religions have practices and holidays regarding symbols of renewal. Spring is a great time to reconnect with religion or spirituality in general. It’s also a great time to seek out and learn about other traditions. Both Easter and the Jewish holiday of Passover are this month. Hillel and other Jewish groups such as Akiva and Chabad have Passover celebrations or seders (in Hebrew) for free or at a low cost. The first night of Passover is April 10. Easter is April 16. There are churches of many denominations around campus. Eat some food and gain some spiritual understanding this season.

5

Starting June 2 nonstop

EUG to PHX

FLOAT THE WILLAMETTE

Rent some inner tubes from the Outdoor Program Barn, grab some friends and enjoy a float down the Willamette. Pass underneath the Autzen footbridge and enjoy the sunny weather. It’s like an actual lazy river, but not at a water park. The Willamette is walking distance from campus, so why not enjoy it?

6

AVOID POLLEN AND ALLERGENS

The Willamette Valley is known for its horrible pollen in the spring, so if you are suffering from allergies, don’t shy away from spending a day away from the flowers. Cook a big meal, invite some friends over and enjoy spring foods. Take some time to read a book under a sunny window. Even though you are indoors, there are still tons of way to celebrate the clear weather.

GETTING TO KNOW UO F ➥ FRANKIE

ASUO has an annual budget of approximately $16 million and only one slate is in the running to take control of these funds next year. On Tuesday, the Emerald hosted a town hall meeting with Presidential Candidate Amy Schenk and Internal Vice Presidential Candidate Tess Mor from the UO For You campaign. The candidates shared their goals and ideas for their seemingly inevitable time in ASUO executive positions. As executive members, these individuals represent students among administration and allocate student funds throughout the year. Schenk and Mor spoke on the major components of their slate. External vice presidential candidate Vickie Gimm did not attend the town hall due to a conflicting class. Even though UO For You is the only slate running, conflict still arose in its formation. “Me, Vickie and Amy, initially, I don’t think we would have ever run together,� Mor said at the town hall. “I think that we all would have formed very different slates. We’re all people with very different views which is why I think this is very unique.� Gimm expressed a similar sentiment in an interview with the Emerald. PA G E 6

“I would have preferred a progressive campaign full of people from marginalized backgrounds, people who aren’t trying to build their political careers, and a campaign that ran on transformative institutional changes,� she said. Gimm wrote in a Facebook interview that she prefers running unopposed, and that a lot of compromising went into it; however Gimm, Mor and Schenk maintain that it was never their intention to run unopposed. Others disagree. Lexi Bergeron was part of an opposing campaign that was disbanded shortly before the campaigns were allowed to be made public according to election rules, and in her opinion, UO For You was not entirely fair in their practices. “The UO For You campaign is built off of restricting ballot access and discouraging others to run through intimidation and opacity,� she alleged. Bergeron explained that while she respects the members of UO For You, she does not believe that a single slate campaign is fair to students. Schenk stated that in the formation of her slate, some students felt displaced. “It’s ASUO, so there was a lot of drama already before I even started to get into the

mix of elections,� she said. She stated that she would make sure that all the students who felt excluded from elections would still be heard. “My door’s always open, open for a conversation and open for advocacy as well,� she said. Vickie denied influencing anyone else in their decision to run. “This year was just a funky year and no other players wanted to run an opposing campaign,� she said. Voting and ground campaigning start Monday and UO For You will be campaigning on campus. Although for the executive vote students only have the choice of writing in a candidate or voting for UO For You, there will also be ballot measures for students to vote on. “We’re still planning to do street teaming and to do some phone banking. Our whole goal is that we want the student body to be an informed body,� Mor said. “It’s just not going to be to the same extent. We don’t want people to resent the ASUO elections.� The main points of UO For You’s campaign are inclusivity, affordability and accessibility for the university. The candidates brought up many of these points at the town hall meeting on Tuesday.

Benefit concert for Ugandan ambulence

Benefit concert to raise money for Ugandan ambulance ➥ ZACH

PRICE, @ZACH_PRICE24

On Friday, the University of Oregon Students for Global Health Club is hosting a benefit concert to raise money for a rural Ugandan village. The club is working with a Ugandan organization called the Kigezi Healthcare Foundation to raise $5,000 for a motorcycle ambulance. The concert will be held at 385 E 19th Ave. Its lineup consists of local Eugene bands Illaquips, The Sunday Bumps, The Heads Up, and Spiller. Raffle prizes include gift cards to Dutch Bros, Pegasus Pizza and Cafe Roma. A guided hike to the top of a desert tower in Utah is also included in the raffle. The club first became involved with the Kigezi Foundation after club member and event organizer Camryn Long interned in Uganda with the foundation last year. Long, a UO senior majoring in human physiology, met the organization’s medical director and founder, Dr. Geoffrey Anguyo. The doctor has worked closely with people in the region to help improve overall health. The staff has helped provide thousands with accessible medical, dental, maternal and child care. “It’s truly an incredible organization,� Long said. “[It] has made a world of an impact on the general health of the Kigezi region.� Anguyo came to the UO last year as a guest lecturer and spoke with the Global Health Club. His goal was to organize a fundraising event in Eugene to benefit the clinic. After hearing the doctor speak about the amazing ways his clinic helps the citizens of Southwest Uganda, Long and the rest of the club PA G E 2

jumped on board. “That region is very rural and is highly populated,� Long said. “Sometimes the nearest [hospital] is 18 miles away. This ambulance would really help them.� Club member and concert co-organizer Lindsey Carmen loved the idea of a benefit concert because she says it’s easy for college students to forget that people are struggling around the world. She understands that it’s not always easy to find a way to help people who live on the other side of the globe. “Our motto is think globally, act locally,� Carmen said. Along with this benefit concert, the Global Health club has hosted several bake sales and started a Crowdfunding account to raise money. “We didn’t have a huge turnout for the bake sale, so we need a big turnout this weekend,� Carmen said. “The villagers down there really need [the ambulance].� The Ugandan benefit concert is currently the club’s main priority, but they are always working on some sort of fundraising event. Later this month the club is hosting a 5k run to raise awareness for a nonprofit called Partners in Health. The Bostonbased organization provides affordable healthcare for low-income families around the world. The run will take place on Sunday, April 30. Long says work like this can often prove to be exhausting, but it’s also some of the most rewarding

work she’s ever done. “The more effort you put into it, the more you get out of it and the more opportunities you get to help people out,� she said. Long’s mom — who worked with low-income families around the world — was the first to inspire her to think more globally about issues of poverty and health care. Since coming to UO, Long has spent time volunteering in India and Uganda. Joining the Global Health Club was a natural fit. “Global health is something that I’m super passionate about,� Long said. “I just think that it’s really cool to take a step back from our personal problems here at UO and think about the entire globe for a second. It’s really awesome to be part of a community that has the same perspective.� But as Long know’s, passion alone doesn’t save the world. Long’s club uses concerts and other events to fund their ambitious projects. “This event is a smart way to raise money, raise awareness and raise spirits at the same time,� Sunday Bump’s alto saxophone player Lee Burlingame said. “It is important to support events like this, where the funds raised will be used wisely to make a real positive impact on a community in need. We can’t wait to rock it!� A $3 donation via either Venmo or cash will grant people entrance to the concert. The donation also serves as an entry for the event’s raffle. Those who aren’t able to attend the event on Friday can still support the cause.

The book has never gone out of print since it was first published in 1898 and has been adapted for both stage and audio formats, and is one of the first narratives about alien invasion in modern society. The original “The War of the Worlds� was adapted by Orson Welles as a radioplay in 1938. People listening at the time believed the story to be true, and ever since, “The War of the Worlds� has been known for that one fateful broadcast on Halloween of 1938. Radio Redux is performing the original script as part of its 2017 season. Other performances are April 8 at 7:30 p.m. and a matinee on April 9 at 2 p.m.

The Write Time is a quiet setting in Susan Campbell Hall’s Grad School Lounge away from the crowded libraries and coffee shops on campus. It encourages students to come and go as they please during the twoand-a-half-hour study session, but mainly functions as a way for students to create a time frame specifically dedicated to their studies. The “gentle accountability� and “peer support� of The Write Time is the perfect way to kick off the new term! The opportunity occurs twice weekly (Wednesday and Thursday).

FOR YOU Inclusivity Mor spoke about creating a mandatory cultural competency training for freshmen. “We really want to find a way to put action behind our words and our advocacy,” she said, explaining that the training could be a way to achieve this. Each ASUO president since 2014 has planned to instate cultural competency programs for freshmen. When asked how Mor plans to actually achieve this goal she responded, “I personally haven’t been the one who has been working with that in the past so I’m not exactly sure of the challenges.” Mor spoke about wanting to get students involved in ASUO. “I’m one person but I think that getting out there and talking to as many people as possible is the best way to represent the student body,” she said. Mor also spoke about expanding the unpaid intern program in order to establish more communication between groups and ASUO. “I want each group to feel like their voice is being heard,” she said.

Affordability “The amount of struggles I’ve seen students have to go through to even attend a university is disgusting,” Schenk said. She spoke about her goals to make attending university more affordable for students, from free printing to more affordable textbooks and tuition. “My best friend had to go through sex work to get here and that was not her choice,” she explained. ASUO can only affect tuition prices in an advisory role. They worked with the Tuition and Fees Advisory board on the recent 10.6 percent in-state tuition increase, a process Schenk was involved in. Schenk spoke at a rally before the Board of Trustees meeting where tuition was raised. “I understand this year is really complex,” Schenk said. “There are a lot of [ongoing] issues with state funding, a lot of issues with how we’re going to cover the cost of this university. But there’s money at this university. … The debt does not have to be put on students’ backs.” UO For You listed “increasing student presence and pressure in Salem to increase state funding” as one of their campaign initiatives. At one point, the ASUO president had a seat on the Board of Trustees, but in 2015, Helena Schlegel, the ASUO president at the time, resigned from the board because she said that she “wasn’t regarded as equal to the other trustees.” Her seat was replaced by a student board member position currently held by William Paustian.

Accessibility UO For You plans to establish a student food pantry on campus, and wants to allow Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits and food stamps to be used at Duck Store locations. Schenk said in an interview with the Emerald that she has made efforts to work with the student food pantry to move it onto campus and remove its religious affiliation in order to make more students comfortable attending it each week. Another issue important to Schenk is finding more funding for mental health care for students. “Asking someone to wait two months for help with depression is too much for students,” she said. The University Counseling Center stated at the board of trustees meeting that 25-35 percent of students who initiate contact with the UCC are referred out due to lack of resources.

BALLOT MEASURES ASUO Elections Appointment and Rules Related to Timeline This ballot measure would ensure that the Election Coordinator is elected at least 11 weeks prior to the ASUO elections, and the rest of the Elections Board members seven weeks before the elections. Student Senate Incidental Fee Appropriation This ballot measure would limit ASUO Senate’s ability to deliberately charge an I-Fee (incidental fee) to students that is more than necessary. Employing Principles of Universal Design to Make ASUO Governance, Resources, Programs, and Services Universally Accessible This ballot measure would require ASUO to make every effort to make every part of ASUO more accessible to all types of people including people with disabilities.

Oregon’s new open football practice policy goes into effect ➡ KENNY

J A C O B Y, @ K E N N Y J A C O B Y

Head coach Willie Taggart is changing the way the Oregon football program interacts with the media, and reporters seem happy about the changes. On Wednesday, Taggart opened the Ducks’ first spring practice to the media. It’s a major diversion from policies of previous head coaches Mark Helfrich and Chip Kelly, who closed practices to prevent their plays, schemes and other strategies from being publicized. Taggart allowed reporters, photographers and videographers to roam the sidelines for the first 30 minutes of Wednesday’s practice and will continue to do so for the rest of spring. Three practices will be completely open to media and the general public, from start to finish. Taggart told the Emerald he plans to follow a similar regimen in the fall. “I think it’s good for [reporters] to come over and get to talk about our football team and get the information out to our fanbase,” Taggart said. “[It] helps them do their job a little bit. It’s something I’ve always done at every place I’ve been.” Reporters say the increased access will enable them to better understand the team as the season progresses, which will ultimately improve their reporting. “You can kind of see guys along the way, not just the final product in some ways,” said Andrew Greif of The Oregonian. “It always helps to put your own eyes on things.” Oregon’s practices were completely open for media and public viewing until 1997, when the school began limiting access by closing practices on Wednesdays. Dave Williford, the team’s sports information director for the past 30 years, said two Oregon coaches claimed that, while they were coaching for other schools, they built their scouting reports of the Ducks based on footage of the team that they had seen

on TV broadcasts. So then-head coach Mike Bellotti took measures to limit access to practices. In 2010, then-head coach Chip Kelly barred media from all practices, claiming it inhibited the team’s ability to prepare. Furthermore he required reporters to request interviews with coaches and players at least 24 hours in advance and refused to disclose players’ injuries to media. The restrictions particularly impacted TV and internet reporters, who relied heavily on getting “B-roll” footage at practices. Taggart said, in his experience, he’s never run into problems with having media at practice. But Mario Cristobal, Oregon’s co-offensive coordinator, said the media’s presence at practice frequently became an issue when he coached at Alabama under Nick Saban, who is infamous for his spats with reporters. Erik Skopil, a reporter for Duck Territory, said when practices were closed, he tended to see the same stories being reported by different outlets, because reporters could only rely on group interviews post-practice to get their information, instead of firsthand accounts. He said videos from practice will enable him to diversify his coverage and foster interest in the website. Greif said it is “appropriate” for reporters to write about what happens at practice — fans certainly have an appetite for the information. He said his coverage may shift more toward what happens during practice, as opposed to what is said in interviews before and after — at least at first. “There’s kind of a mystery about Oregon practices and what exactly they even do there, especially with the new staff — how they’ll run practices,” Greif said. “I think at first it’ll maybe be a little more, for practices reports, ‘Here’s what I saw.’ As we go on I’m not sure the novelty will still continue.”

Willie Taggart spoke to the media for about 30 minutes on Tuesday afternoon ahead of the team’s start to spring practices. Taggart discussed topics ranging from GPA to senior leadership to whether Justin Herbert will be the starting quarterback again next season. The former South Florida head coach appeared thrilled to start spring season, which will consist of three open practices for the general public. “I’m really excited about the spring ball,” Taggart said. “I’m really impressed with the way they’re working in the classroom. I’m really excited to see how that translates onto the football field.” The Oregon head coach dished on injuries heading into spring season, saying that some players will be completely out for the spring; however, Taggart would not specify who was injured. “We have some guys that had surgery after last season that won’t compete this spring,” Taggart said. “We have some guys coming back from injury that we’re bringing them back along slowly. So we have more than I would like to be out but we’re getting better and some guys are coming back.” Since his hiring, Taggart has worked to grow player-coach relationships and attempted to translate his relationships with them to success on the field. Taggart has dinners with the team, plays EA Sports Madden and hosts ping pong tournaments. “What’s helped has been that I’ve been in this situation two other times and each experience you have you try to learn better,” Taggart said. “[I’m] spending more time with the guys, not just football but life and having fun and trying to get to know them.” Taggart also said that senior

leadership will be important. “I met with our seniors on Sunday and just talking with those guys, I think that’s something I didn’t do enough at my last two stops was spend more time with those seniors and guys who have been here a while,” Taggart said. On Monday, Taggart tweeted the team’s GPA of 2.80, the highest it’s been since 2000. He stressed the importance of getting work done in the classroom, specifically calling out Herbert who had a 4.1 GPA in winter term, Taggart said. Concerning Herbert, Taggart did not guarantee the starting spot but said he is impressed with what he has seen in the freshman. “I want to win so I just want to find a winning quarterback,” Taggart said when asked about Herbert’s starting role. “The things I like about Justin is he’s smart. … And he’s very athletic. You look at Justin and see his height and his built and think ‘Okay this guy can’t run, he can’t do this and that.’ That’s not the case. “I think at the end of the day I wanna see who can lead this football team — who can get this team to rally behind them and play for their quarterback. I think, each winning team out there, that’s what the quarterback does. It’s not just getting the offensive guys to rally behind him but the defensive guys as well. … I think that’s what this football team is missing.” Taggart visited Clemson last week. The Tigers are coming off a win over Alabama in the national title game. “I think a lot of things they’re doing we’re doing them here now,” Taggart said. “I think we share similar philosophy behind things, whether it’s football or player development. I was really impressed how we’re doing a lot of the same things.”
