NEWS FORMER UO STUDENT AND ACTIVIST KILLED IN EUGENE POLICE SHOOTING OUTSIDE OF CASCADE MIDDLE SCHOOL BY MICHAEL TOBIN, EMILY GOODYKONTZ AND ZACH PRICE

irty-year-old Eugene native and former University of Oregon student Charles Frederick Landeros was killed in an altercation on Friday outside of Eugene’s Cascade Middle School, Oregon State Police announced on Saturday. According to the Eugene Police Department’s post about the shooting, as Eugene Police officers escorted Landeros from the school, “he produced a firearm and a struggle ensued.” In a press release, EPD spokeswoman Melinda McLaughlin said that the incident was related to a custody dispute. No students, faculty members or police officers were injured in the incident. Cascade Middle School, Malabon Elementary and Willamette High School were put in brief lockdowns, according to the Bethel School District’s website. Landeros, who used they/them/theirs pronouns, led a student protest in October 2017 that disrupted UO President Michael Schill’s state of the university address. Landeros and other protestors characterized Schill as a CEO and said that the purpose of the protest was to “empower marginalized students on campus.” Landeros was a member of Community Armed Self Defense, a group that was created as a “new liberatory and inclusive space for all oppressed peoples to learn about armed self-defense,” according to the group’s Facebook page, which is no longer publicly available on Facebook as of 4 p.m. Saturday. Community Armed Self Defense’s Facebook page said that they could not count on the police to protect marginalized people, and that firearms help marginalized groups protect themselves. “ e police are not here to protect us. ey are more likely to harm us themselves than they are to ‘serve or protect’ us,” the group wrote on their Facebook page description. In a Facebook post that did not mention Landeros by name, the Civil Liberties Defense Center posted that its community is “shocked and grieving” over the death of a CLDC volunteer who was shot by police on Friday. e CLDC is a Eugene organization that provides legal assistance and support for those affected by social inequality and environmental destruction, according to its Facebook page. “ is person, a veteran, former University of e Emerald is published by Emerald Media Group, Inc., the independent nonprofit media company at the University of Oregon.

UO spokeswoman Molly Blancett confirmed via email that Landeros is no longer a student at UO. “We offer our deepest condolences to his family and friends,” Blancett wrote. As of Saturday, EPD said that the Interagency Deadly Force Investigation Team will review the altercation. e team includes the Lane County district attorney and members of up to 10 nearby police forces, such as Lane County Sheriff’s department and Springfield Police, according to a Lane County Interagency facts sheet. According to the post on EPD’s Facebook page, Lane County’s district attorney will review the team’s findings and determine if any crimes were committed during the altercation and during EPD’s response.

Review: ‘THE LION KING’ BRINGS A CLASSIC TALE TO LIFE BY DANI ROSALES • TWITTER @DANIROSALES27

e 2012 cast of Disney’s “ e Lion King” performs on stage. ere are 12 performances left of “ e Lion King” at the Hult Center for Performing Arts. (Creative Commons)

Bright colors, extravagant sets and life-sized animal puppets compose the background of Disney’s “ e Lion King,” which transports audience members to Pride Rock. e U.S. National Tour of the show directed by Julie Taylor opened on Jan. 9 at the Hult Center for Performing Arts. e play is based on the classic Disney animated movie of the same name, following Simba, Mufasa, Scar and the rest of its beloved characters. With the exception of a few additional scenes, the musical follows the same plot as the movie. e show takes us through Simba’s (Jared Dixon) circle of life — from the moment he is presented to the animals on Pride Rock to becoming king and introducing his child. e musical first opened in 1997 in Minneapolis but has maintained its relevancy with references to “Tar-jay,” Angry Birds, Twitter, “Frozen” and e Floss. ese moments fit right in to the show, never feeling gimmicky or out of place. e wonderful Rafiki (Buyi Zama) kicked

the show off with her booming vocals which, paired with her comical movements, made the audience cackle even when she spoke a different language. Part of what transports the audience to Pride Rock is the live-action animals puppets and costume pieces that become part of the set and parade around the theater. e actors weave themselves in the aisle to surround the audience in music and puppet animals. ere’s nothing quite like making eye contact with the evil hyenas or exchanging smiles with the ensemble that wave birds in the air. One of the main highlights of the show is the 232 intricate puppets that almost every actor uses. Some actors sport ornate masks, like Simba, Scar (Spencer Plachy) and Mufasa (Gerald Ramsey). Others wear hand puppets, like Zazu (Greg Jackson). While Timon (Nick Cordileone) and Pumbaa (Ben Lipitz) don full body pieces. Each mask is an integral part of the character to the point where the mask is an extension of the actor who maneuvers it; however, it’s

the show’s diverse cast that truly brought the characters to life. e raw emotion of each character is clear on each actor’s face. Whether or not their face is completely visible doesn’t matter because the feeling was there throughout the production. Despite the intricacies of performing this musical, the energy the actors put into the show doesn’t diminish. e same care and enthusiasm put into the first of 20 musical numbers continues into the last — not an easy feat considering the heavy props and taxing dance numbers, which range from classical ballet to a quick-paced African dance. Every choice made by Taylor, who also designed the costumes, was well thought out and made with great attention to detail. “ e Lion King” presents a magical evening that will bring your childhood memories to life. ere are 8 performances left of “ e Lion King,” and tickets start around $55 depending on seating and availability.

MOLD, MAINTENANCE REQUESTS COMMON OCCURRENCES IN UNIVERSITY

EAST CAMPUS HOUSING BY MICHAEL TOBIN • TWITTER @TOBIN_TWEETS Emily Meng, a tenant who lived in 1709 Moss St., said that this is what their ceiling looked like before UO Housing came to cover it. e Meng’s are now suing UO, saying that they were sickened by the mold in their home. (Courtesy of Emily Meng)

Katie Patt and her husband moved into 1741 Moss St., a faded robin’s egg blue bungalow that is part of the University of Oregon’s East Campus Housing, in June 2016. e mother of three young boys, Patt said that after a month of living in the home mold started to grow on the walls. “ ere was this black, hairy mold that just started growing two feet up the wall and it was a foot wide,” Patt said. “On the direct opposite side was our bedroom closet. We would try to clean it, and it wouldn’t even wipe off.” Patt said the problem wasn’t just an eye sore. “All of us were very sick. We had a lot of behavioral challenges with our older sons. We couldn’t figure out if it was their age, but it was more extreme [in that home]. My boss would ask me when we were not sick.” According to the Center for Disease Control a 2004 study from the Institute of Medicine found that those who are otherwise healthy and live in environments with mold can develop upper respiratory problems. at’s why in rainy Eugene, Patt’s complaints about the living conditions aren’t unique among East Campus Housing residents. Two lawsuits have been filed against the university in the past two years over the conditions of homes in East Campus Housing. One lawsuit was filed over the lead paint that coats the outside of many of the homes. e Meng family, who lived in 1709 Moss St., sued the university in July 2018, claiming that black mold inside their home made them fall ill. e Meng’s case has not yet been settled. “UO is recruiting families and telling them it’s nice for families,” said Emily Meng, one of the tenants of 1709 Moss St. East Campus Housing leases put the responsibility of taking care of mold on the tenant. But in extreme cases, or when mold is due to a structural fault, taking care of the mold is the university’s responsibility. In cases with a lot of moisture and areas of the house where mold is widespread, it’s

Several of the East Campus homes are “offline,” a term the university uses to describe homes where “maintenance or repair costs would exceed their rental return value.” One offline home is 1778 Villard St. (Sarah Northrop)

complicated who is responsible. Following the initial story about the Meng family’s lawsuit, the Emerald launched a larger followup investigation to determine if other East Campus Housing tenants experienced similar problems. is follow-up consists of interviews with prior tenants and information gained from public records such as annual housing inspections. e Emerald’s investigation found that mold is a common occurrence in East Campus Housing, and tenants say that maintenance requests are deferred and sometimes go ignored. e Emerald tried multiple times to interview officials involved with UO Housing, including Director of Housing Facilities and Services Greg Ottoman, but all inquiries were redirected to Kelly McIver, the safety and risk services spokesman. McIver responded to the Emerald’s questions via email after consulting with staff in University Housing and Environmental Health and Safety.

Mold, mildew and maintenance UO’s east campus area is a contrast of old and new buildings — two modern brick dorms, Global Scholars Hall and Kalapuya Ilihi, stand across the street from the Bean residence hall, which was built in 1963 and is in the middle of renovations. e east campus properties span from 14th and Villard to 18th and Columbia and are mostly decades-old one-story homes. e university leases single and multiple-bedroom residences to graduate students, including those with families. e university owns the homes, which on the surface appear to be ideal living spaces for graduate students with children because their multiple rooms for kids and outdoor space.

“In many ways it was a great deal. We had a full house,” said Eoin Bastable, a graduate student who lived at 1584 Villard St. for four years. e houses that would become East Campus Housing were built in the early to mid-1900s, and Lane County property records show that the oldest house was built in 1901. According to documents from UO’s Public Records Office, the university acquired its first east campus residence in 1961 and made its last purchase in 1994. Around the time UO purchased its last east campus house, it built the Agate Street apartments, which offer more affordable housing options to students. Although there are dozens of properties, there is a waitlist to move into east campus homes. UO says that tenant turnover “tends to be low and infrequent”, and prospective renters can wait from 12 to 18 months for a home to open up; however, the university says that this timeframe isn’t always accurate due to factors such as availability and the number of students leaving at the time. At one time, East Campus Housing wasn’t the only university-owned housing for students with families. e university owned Westmoreland Housing — a 37-building apartment complex with 404 rooms that was built in the early 1960s. e university sold the property in 2006. At the time of the sale, according to the UO Libraries, 234 units had tenants and 30 percent of those included tenants with children. Nick Ponvert, a graduate student in the neuroscience institute, said that he and his wife were on the east campus waitlist before they moved into a house on 18th and Villard. Ponvert says the rent is affordable, he’s had some problems in the house — there was a leak in his bedroom, and

he also had to alert UO about clogged gutters because he lives near large maple trees. “I’m the kind of guy who would do it myself but they’ve been pretty adamant about me not doing it,” he said. “ ey’ve been pretty responsive; water leaking into your house is an emergency request.” Ponvert said that he and his wife would wake up in the morning and the water would condense on the windows.

“WHAT’S IMPORTANT TO US IS LIVING IN A SAFE HOME THAT’S WELL TAKEN CARE OF. IF THAT’S THE CASE, THEN THEY SHOULDN’T RENT THESE PLACES OUT ANYMORE.” EOIN BASTABLE

Former East Campus Housing tenant

Ponvert said that a black, splotchy mold grew on the walls and a fuzzy gray mold grew on his bookcase. Ponvert said his wife developed asthma when they moved to Eugene, and the conditions inside the house didn’t help the allergies she already had. “My wife has pretty bad asthma and

we attributed that somewhat to the mold that we were fighting. She since has gotten tested for allergens and mold isn’t as bad as an issue as much as the cats are,” Ponvert said. Ponvert rented a dehumidifier from the university and he said the conditions improved — but not entirely. “It takes some maintenance every so often; we still have to scrub some of the mold off the wall,” Ponvert said. “It’s not anywhere as bad as it has been in the past. If you can keep the humidity down with the humidifier around 50 percent, it really helps.”

Staying away from the mold Mold is a common problem among homes in the Pacific Northwest, given the rainy winters. McIver said that surface-level mold is commonly observed in older homes and no more than two square feet may be found in as much as 25 percent of annual inspections, and that the mold “does not usually indicate a structural fault or failure of the building envelope.” While Ponvert and his wife were able to find a partial solution to the mold, the Patt family wasn’t as lucky. Patt became pregnant while living in the home said she complained to University Housing about the conditions of her home. Patt said the mold eventually spread to her closet, which the university sealed off. en they had to remove the home’s chimney because it was letting moisture into the house and creating an ideal environment for mold growth. “We couldn’t figure out if it was their [the children’s] age but it was more extreme there.” Patt said. “We

. COVER Continued from page 7 were just sick a lot — more than usual headaches and bloody noses.” In May 2017, Patt sent an email to Francis Pastorelle, the UO housing area coordinator, saying although one room improved after the removal of the chimney, certain rooms still had mold. “ e small room upstairs is still covered in mold, and right above our 1-year-old’s bed in the little room downstairs is brown staining from moisture, but now it is cracking and not looking so good,” Patt wrote. “We did show it to the men twice and they said it was probably moisture, but it is getting worse.” Patt said the mold eventually got so bad that she moved her family into the two downstairs bedrooms and tried to block off the mold with blankets. Patt’s youngest son has asthma, and she believes the mold inside the home exacerbated his conditions and the family had to call 911 when he stopped breathing. “My youngest is on preventive asthma medication, and I’m 100 percent sure he was affected healthwise by the mold.” she says. “ e mold was a nightmare upstairs.” According to the lease, which also

contains an asbestos disclosure, controlling mold growth is the responsibility of the tenant. e language in the lease requires residents to minimize mold growth by keeping room temperatures above 60 degrees, keeping humidity at less than 60 percent, ensuring that furniture is away from the walls and making sure that bathrooms and kitchens are “dry and clear of moisture.” e Emerald requested housing inspection records from the last three years of all of the university’s East Campus Housing properties. e records show the presence of mold in many of the homes, including in the Meng’s. In total, 74 properties make up East Campus Housing and the inspection records found mold in 40 of those properties over the last three years. is analysis included the Agate Street apartments, which the Emerald counted as one building, although university inspectors found mold in multiple units. Despite the provisions in the lease, UOPD’s McIver said that there are some cases in which mold is the responsibility of the university, and not the tenant. ese cases include instances in which there is more than approximately 10 square feet of mold growth, concerns that mold growth

may lead to permanent damage of the home or if there is water damage that is causing the mold growth. e answers McIver provided say that the mold in Patt’s residence crossed the 10-square-foot threshold, and as a result, the family was moved to another home while the university dealt with the mold issue. e university performed air sampling tests on the home, but Patt says she did not receive the results. Patt says she sent several emails to UO requesting the test results and eventually had to file a public records request in September 2018 to receive them. “I complained at least three times and I requested three times to see the results of the testing,” Patt said. “I did get a response. ey were very honest with us. He [Greg Ottoman] was concerned that I was pregnant in the home.” e Emerald also requested the test results. e university did two separate rounds of testing on the Patts’ house, one in January 2018 and another in May. Both results show the presence of aspergillus/ penicillium and cladosporium, molds the CDC lists as “common indoor molds.” According to the CDC, determining

Jennifer Steimer, who lived at 1510 Villard St., said that mold was just one of the problems she experienced while living in East Campus Housing. Steimer said that other problems included rats and a gas leak. (Courtesy of Jennifer Steimer)

a dangerous level of mold is difficult from an outsider’s interpretation of the results due to the unique circumstances and situations within each home. e agency says that test results cannot be interpreted without “physical inspection of the contaminated area or without considering the building’s characteristics and the factors that led to the present condition.” But in the Patts’ case, the mold was bad enough that the university told them to move. Patt said that Housing Director Greg Ottoman told her family that they needed to leave the house. Despite the moldy conditions, and moving Patt’s family, the university insists that the homes are safe. e responses McIver provided say that after cleaning Patt’s home, University Housing determined that the home’s structure was not affected and a second round of testing showed lower spore concentrations. McIver says that the university will monitor conditions of the home annually. McIver writes in an email response that the East Campus Housing facilities “are in better than average condition and are maintained better than most rental houses of similar vintage in Eugene.” McIver’s response added that if “the houses are properly maintained and provisions in the lease agreements are followed, the houses are fully safe.” Several of the East Campus homes are “offline,” a term the university uses to describe homes that require “maintenance or repair costs [that] would exceed their rental return value,” not because the homes are uninhabitable. Offline homes include 1778 Villard St., which is surrounded by a metal chain link fence. According to answers McIver provided, eight homes fit the criteria the university provided. For some tenants, containing the mold growth was a constant battle. Jen Steimer and her husband lived in 1510 Villard St., just a block from Global Scholars Hall, from February 2014 to August 2017. “It seemed fine at first, and then next fall when it started raining there was a lot of mold around the windows,” Steimer said. “We wiped it and it would come back. We could just smell it.” Steimer said that when university employees came to inspect the house, they suggested turning up the heat, as the lease recommends. “I had to miss a lot of work and I felt really achy,” Steimer said. “My husband’s asthma was worsened and he ended up in the emergency room.” Steimer said the mold wasn’t the only problem they had while living in the home; she said that there were also issues with rats. Another persistent issue plagued the home for three years, Steimer says — the smell of gas. In an email

she sent to East Campus Housing in July 2017, Steimer says that she noticed the smell of gas for the past three summers. “In addition, we are smelling gas each night on the south side of the house when the windows are open when we are going to bed so we are breathing in gas all night while we sleep…” she wrote in the email. “Both of these issues combined with the mold issue are causing me to feel like I’m slowly being poisoned and now that I am pregnant, this is causing me great stress, loss of sleep, and constant worry.” Steimer said that someone from the gas company came to fix the leak and they moved to 1737 Columbia St. in May 2017.

Living with lead paint Mold isn’t the only East Campus Housing problem that has been brought up in the courts. In September 2016, a family filed a lawsuit against the university due to the lead paint that coated their house. e complaint in the lawsuit stated that the premises became “uninhabitable.” According to court documents, the family initially sought $70,000 and later settled in court for $120,000. In 2016, UO commissioned G2 Consultants, a Lake Oswego, Oregonbased company, to conduct a lead paint survey on 29 homes in East Campus Housing. According to G2’s report, the work was “limited to paint films on interior building components previously identified by the university as being in poor condition.” Along with G2’s report, the Emerald obtained other lead paint testing done by UO through a public records request. ese tests are in the Emerald’s map of East Campus Housing. G2 found lead paint in the Mengs’ and Bastables’ homes, and the report says the tests confirmed the presence of lead paint levels above the Environmental Protection Agency and Housing and Urban Development’s threshold of 1.0 mg/cm2. e report acknowledges the danger of lead, and says that lead based paint is “a common cause of lead poisoning in children and represents a threat to the health and welfare of the occupants.” Bastable said he had three children at the time the report came out, and one of his children was a newborn. “We moved into that house with a newborn and our main concern was

SCAN TO SEE THE PROPERTIES AFFECTED WITH OUR INTERACTIVE MAP

having a child between 0-2 [years old] growing up in that house.” e report lists the lead levels on Bastable’s bathroom door at 27.1 mg/ cm2 and the laundry room door at 2.1 mg/cm2. e outside of Bastable’s home had elevated lead levels as well, with the front door’s exterior porch column and porch trim clocking in at 11.40 and 9.60 mg/cm2 respectively. e report described the exterior features in “fair condition,” meaning less than or equal to 10 percent of the exterior components were damaged. Bastable said that the university did address the lead paint in his home after the report came out, but the exterior repairs didn’t impress him. “It was a bit on the cheap side,” he said. “Instead of stripping the paint off and clearing it off, they put plywood planks on top of it. In the interior, they did replace the two doors.” Bastable added that UO supports the community in other ways, but what matters to him is a focus on their well-being. “ e UO has invested in social activities; they have barbeques and stuff,” he said, “but what’s important to us is living in a safe home that’s well taken care of. If that’s the case, then they shouldn’t rent these places out anymore. ey’re putting themselves at risk, but more importantly they’re putting families at risk by not keeping them up to current codes and standards.” e university says that it has not confirmed long term plans for the land on which East Campus Housing sits; however, a PowerPoint presentation shown to the university’s board of trustees in May 2018 indicated that the university has the beginning plans of future development. e presentation, titled “East Campus Residential Expansion,” features a 500-bed project that would replace East Campus homes and lots with four buildings that would include a variety of different units. e university anticipated that the project would cost around $60 million. No new details about the project are publicly available on the university’s purchasing and contracting services website, despite the presentation saying that the request for proposal and negotiation stage of the project would take place from June to November 2018. As for the East Campus Housing residents, life continues.

Along with problems of mold, instances of lead paint on the East Campus houses have been brought up in court. (Sarah Northrop)

INSIGHT SEMINARS: FRONTIERS OF PASSION IN MODERN FICTION

THE BEST OF NETFLIX: THE LAST O.G.”

Winter term has officially begun, which means back to studying and hibernating to avoid the cold weather. If you are looking for humorous entertainment during the winter season, “ e Last O.G.” (found on Netflix) is the show to watch. e show follows an ex-drug dealer named Tray Barker (Tracy Morgan) as he attempts to re-enter society following a 15-year stint in prison. His struggles include living in a halfway house with other criminals, finding employment and finding out his girlfriend has married another man. Oh, and he has two kids he never knew about. On top of all those issues, Tray struggles to come to terms with the fact that his neighborhood and all the communities he once knew have changed during his time in prison. “ e Last O.G.” takes a serious situation and adds touches of humour with a star-studded cast including comedians Tiffany Haddish and Cedric the Entertainer.

FIND COMFORT FOOD AT GREAT HARVEST BREAD CO. Grey skies and cold forecasts call for all things cozy and comfortable. Most are quick to don sweats and spend hours on Netflix, but the winter season vibes extend past what we do, or don’t do, in our free time. Great Harvest Bread Co. is home to some of the most delicious treats and sandwiches, but their grilled cheese option is by far the most comfort-food-esque of all. Sure, you can easily create your own version of this staple at home, but do you really have the energy for that? Plus, if you go to Great Harvest, you’ll probably score some bread and cookie samples — are you really going to turn that down? ere are over 200 locations across America, with Eugene’s very own located on Willamette Street. Winter is cold and often dreary and depressing. Meals that make you feel warm and fuzzy are a must. Don’t skip out on a chance to eat some classic bread and cheese.

BOARD GAMES FOR WHEN YOU’RE BORED Eugene may have flaunted clear blue skies over the weekend, but we know the rain isn’t going to stay away for long. It can be hard to get outside and find activities to do during the winter season — the weather just doesn’t cooperate. Board games can be considered old fashioned, but they’re a great activity to gather around while snuggled in blankets and nursing hot chocolate or mulled wine. ere are popular favorites like Settlers of Catan, Monopoly and Yahtzee, but some of the more obscure games tend to be the best. Try Telestrations, a blend of Pictionary and Telephone; Scattergories, kind of like trivia with a twist; or Avalon, the ultimate option if you feel like arguing. e most memorable nights don’t have to be spent out at the bars or under the stars — laughing and passing a bowl of popcorn as you await your turn to roll the dice or spin the wheel will prove more enjoyable than you might anticipate.

OPINION

FACIAL HAIR:

LET IT GROW, GROW, GROW

(Creative Commons)

BY ARMAND YAZDANI A man may face many problems growing his facial hair. He may only be able to grow patchy beards or be hardly able to grow one at all. His mustache may grow in rapidly while his side hair may take longer to grow. Maybe his workplace requires all employees to be clean-shaven. Either way, the rich history of beards and mustaches along with several studies in support of beards, means no man should feel discouraged from growing one. Beards and mustaches carry a rich history. In some instances, facial hair of some sort was compulsory in armies. During the 19th century, after the Crimean War, the United Kingdom prohibited men from shaving hair above their upper lips until as recent as 1916. Following the war, when civilian Britons saw their troops return home with colossal beards, heavy facial hair fell back into favor. It was associated with heroism and manliness. During the Great War, French infantrymen were called “poilu,” which means

“hairy” in French, for their hairiness. Beards and bushy mustaches had been common among the poilu, who embraced their ruggedness. Far before this, beards bore a positive reputation in Ancient Greece among many other ancient civilizations. Several Greek men sported voluminous, often curly beards to display their high status and wisdom. In Ancient Persia, Greece and Macedonia, beards were prevalent. To prevent Persians from grasping at beards in battle, Alexander the Great ordered his troops to shave off their beards, according to the ancient historian Plutarch. Nowadays, beards remain prevalent and preferable to being clean-shaven. Beards are overall viewed positively by women. A 2008 study by Neaves and Shields involved women rating 15 men on five different levels of facial hair: clean-shaven, light stubble, heavy stubble, light beard and full beard. e 60 raters evaluated the men’s faces on masculinity,

dominance, social maturity, aggression and attractiveness. Although the women found men with light stubble to be the most attractive, they deemed fullybearded faces to be the most masculine, aggressive and socially mature. e raters found men with light beards to be the most dominant of the levels. Depending on whether you prioritize masculinity over attractiveness or vice versa, the study reveals that women have a clear preference for men with facial hair. A more recent, larger study indicates how much more desirable women find bearded men to be over beardless men. e 2016 study by the Journal of Evolutionary Biology displayed graphically manipulated male faces, which ranged from clean-shaven to light stubble, heavy stubble and fully bearded. In contrast to the previous study, women rated men with heavy stubble to be the most attractive. Facial hair generally improved the women’s perception

of men’s long-term attractiveness. Gay men may also favor the bearded over the beardless. According to a 2016 1,577-participant survey by the Journal of Evolution and Human Behavior in the Czech Republic and Brazil, gay men preferred facial hair on men as well. e survey found that male participants opted for men with beards similar to their own level of beardedness. is suggests that depending on how sizeable a man’s beard is influences how desirable he finds beards on other men. Many men today prefer to be clean-shaven, but the rich history of men’s facial hair along with studies revealing men’s and women’s fondness toward beards are reasons to reconsider growing facial hair yourself. If a beard seems to be too much of a leap, try sporting a thin, well-trimmed mustache. Many individuals underestimate their beard-growing potential and neglect to experiment with it. Embrace your happiness and bask in its glory.

WHITE, KING LEAD OREGON

TO BOUNCE BACK WIN OVER USC BY MAVERICK PALLACK • TWITTER @MAVPALLACK With two days to either dwell or recover from ursday’s brutal overtime loss to UCLA, which saw Oregon blow a nine point lead with under a minute to play, Sunday’s game against USC had the potential to bury the Ducks. Instead, the Ducks came out hot, hitting their first shot, a Louis King 3-pointer, and never looking back. ey went on to dismantle USC, leading for all but the first 17 seconds of the game in an 81-60 win over the Trojans. “ e very next day [following the loss] at our practice [head coach Dana Altman] was kind of spewing out all different kinds of quotes but the message of it was, ‘ ings happen and we’ve got to move on,’” redshirt senior Paul White said. “At the end of the day, I’m proud of my team and the way that we responded.” Outside of a four minute scoring drought early in the first half, Oregon’s offense was dominant. King and White, 19 points each, carried the Ducks’

offense, especially in the first half where they accounted for 28 of Oregon’s 36 points. “Paul and Louis were really good,” Altman said. “ ey really hit shots and made plays and I thought both of them played hard as well.” King continued to be a force offensively for the Ducks. Fresh off a career high 22 points against UCLA, the freshman was +30 in the most complete game of his young Oregon career, scoring 19 points (8-13 shooting), assisting six times and securing eight rebounds. “Louis has been great, ever since he came back,” White said. “I think people are really starting to see the talent that he is, the steps that he’s taken. … I’m happy for him and I know that our team really needs that kind of production.” When the ball wasn’t going through King, White kept the offense rolling. White, also coming off a then-season high 16 point performance, utilized his 3-point shot and the free throw line to put up 19

Ducks forward Paul White (13) put up 19 points during the game against USC, tying his career-high. (Ben Green)

points, tying his career high. “I thought he did a great job picking and choosing,” Altman said. “He took five threes and hit three of them, which helps anybody. He got some rebounds but I thought he was solid in all aspects.” Another good sign for the Ducks was that Payton Pritchard (nine points) ended his shooting drought early in the first half. Pritchard hit a three pointer four minutes into the game to end an 0-8 streak, which began in the Oregon State game and spanned over 45 minutes of game time. Oregon will head south to take on the Arizona schools this upcoming week, looking to move to 3-2 in Pac-12 play, facing Arizona on ursday and then Arizona State on Saturday. “Coach talked to us about keeping the energy up, and a win like this is definitely good for us,” Victor Bailey Jr. said. “I think going into Arizona State and Arizona we just have to stick with the same energy.”

NO. 5 OREGON SWEEPS FIRST PAC-12 ROAD TRIP, DEFEATS UCLA 72-52 BY MAGGIE VANONI • TWITTER @MAGGIE_VANONI e last time Oregon met UCLA, the Ducks stole the No. 4 Bruins’ chances of winning the Pac-12 Tournament. Just three points made the difference in that game, allowing Oregon to advance to the final against Stanford and go on to earn the program’s first ever Pac-12 Tournament title. Nine months later, on their home court, the Bruins had their chance at redemption. But Oregon never gave them the chance. e No. 5 Ducks (15-1, 4-0 Pac-12) defeated the Bruins 72-52 Sunday afternoon at the Pauley Pavillon to conclude Oregon’s first road trip of the season in a sweep over the So-Cal schools. e win marks Oregon’s eighth straight victory. Despite scoring its lowest first-half score this season, 32-21, Oregon dominated the Bruins (9-8, 2-3 Pac12) in the second half, outscoring them 40-31. Ruthy Hebard and Satou Sabally led Oregon with 19 points each, earning double-doubles as well with rebounds. Hebard earned her sixth doubledouble of the season with a careerhigh 18 rebounds, while Sabally had 11 rebounds for her

second career double-double. Sabrina Ionescu scored 14 points, leading the Ducks with six assists. As a team, the Ducks recorded a seasonhigh 21 offensive rebounds. Oregon reached a 10-point lead twice in the first quarter, outshooting UCLA 50 percent to 26 percent. After ending the first quarter ahead 19-11, the Ducks used a 7-0 run to lead by as much as 13 with less than three minutes remaining in the half. UCLA’s Lauryn Miller snuck in a final layup in the half’s final 16 seconds to lessen the damage for a halftime score of 31-21. e Bruins got as close as within 10 points from the Ducks halfway through the third, but back-to-back 3-pointers from senior Maite Cazorla helped the Ducks open the fourth quarter on a 15-2 run. Cazorla’s second 3-pointer got Oregon to its highest lead of the game of 28 points with less than four minutes remaining in the game. e Ducks will return home to Eugene to host the Arizona schools next weekend. Oregon will start the homestand against No. 19 Arizona State on Friday at 6 p.m. before facing the Arizona Wildcats on Sunday at noon.
