Recreation facilities nearly complete
New, improved sports spaces are in the works,
including a track and outdoor tennis courts
BY JOE BAILEY

Dennis Munroe, the director of Physical Activity and Recreation Services, talks about
the tennis courts under construction near East 18th Avenue.
Construction of new tennis
courts, grass fields and a jogging
track is nearing completion, a project that University officials hope
will significantly upgrade campus
recreational facilities.
Depending on the weather, construction could be complete by
mid-November, Physical Activity
and Recreation Services Director
Dennis Munroe said. The facilities
will be available for limited use
only until spring 2006.
The project began after construction of the Living Learning
Center displaced the old tennis
courts in summer 2004. University
policy dictates that because Housing was building on top of the tennis courts, Housing was responsible for replacing them.
Interim Vice President for Student Affairs and Director of University Housing Mike Eyster said
he saw the relocation of the tennis
courts as an opportunity.
“We could have placed those
tennis courts any number of
places,” he said. “We actually got
together as a group to figure out
where we could get the most value
for students.”
The new facilities cost approximately $1.8 million, half of which
was paid by Housing. The athletic

University Health Center nurse practitioner Cindy Smith describes the new procedure for collecting evidence
from sexual assault victims. She has specialized training through the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners program.
All collected evidence will be kept in a locked
refrigerator or closet until submitted to police,
Smith said.
“Students can report to law enforcement,
Crowds gather at the EMU
Amphitheater to welcome and
celebrate cultural diversity
Mark Franco, headman of the Winnemem
Wintu Native American tribe, spoke during
Indigenous Solidarity Day on Monday, telling
stories and relaying his tribe’s struggles with
the federal government.
But the man didn’t know until he got here
that Monday was Indigenous Solidarity Day,
otherwise known as Columbus Day or AntiColumbus Day.
To him, it didn’t matter. Franco came hoping to persuade people here to protect water
and fight for social justice, he said.
“I’m quite hopeful that this generation will
really be able to make a change,” he said.
Monday’s celebrations drew speakers and
audiences to the EMU Amphitheater for about
11 hours. Groups circulated petitions, sold Tshirts, played music, displayed art and
donned red bandanas to show support for oppressed indigenous people worldwide.
Highlights included a performance by nationally known musician and spoken-word
poet John Trudell and a conversation between
Trudell and Wayne Morse Chair of Law and
Politics Wilma Mankiller, the first female chief
of the Cherokee Nation. The two-hour talk
drew a nearly full EMU Ballroom crowd.
But the day had different meanings for
speakers, organizers and a student participant.
Franco said the day wasn’t about condemning Christopher Columbus. Miners who
came west in the mid-1800s and government
actions since then have hurt his people, not
Columbus.
“I don’t know him; he’s not related to me,”
Franco said.
For University sophomore Shalan Ryan, codirector at the Native American Student
Union, the event meant showing people that
“indigenous peoples aren’t just surviving.
We’re thriving.”
The events also showed native people that
there are role models for them, she said.
For Ryan, who is one-quarter Santa Clara
Pueblo Native American and three-quarters
Irish and Italian, the day meant supporting indigenous people, not condemning Columbus.
SANE provides help for rape victims
The University Health Center is now able to
examine men and women who have been sexually assaulted and can collect evidence to be
used in prosecution.
In the past, students who were sexually assaulted could receive a follow-up medical
exam, sexually transmitted-infections screening
and emergency contraception from the Health
Center, but they would have to go to the hospital emergency room to have evidence collected.
Now, Health Center nurses with specialized
training and clinical experience in assault examinations can collect evidence after a
sexual assault.
The Health Center’s Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners give students the option of having evidence collected in an environment where they
feel more comfortable, said Cindy Smith, a
SANE certified nurse practitioner.
Smith is currently the only nurse certified to
perform the exams, but two more nurse practitioners at the Health Center will soon be able to
perform them, Health Center Director Tom
Ryan said.
A typical exam in which evidence is collected
may last about two hours, Smith said. The
exam may include collecting DNA by using
swabs, documenting injuries or bruises, collecting a urine sample or preserving clothing worn
during the assault.

University expands transportation options online
With UO’s subscription to AlterNetRides, students and faculty have
access to carpooling without the regular scheduling hassles
BY KATY GAGNON
NEWS REPORTER
Students, faculty and staff looking for a carpool to campus can now use an online carpool database to connect with others.
The University has started subscribing to
AlterNetRides, a Web service launched in January 2002 designed to “provide the most innovative and inexpensive carpool/ride share
service possible,” according to the San Francisco company’s Web site.
This is one of several attempts University
has made to reduce the amount of people
driving to campus. Other efforts include using
student incidental fees to buy bus passes in
bulk and creating a biking infrastructure on
campus.
Currently, the Department of Public Safety
issues carpool parking permits, but few have
taken advantage of the permit, said Steve Mital, sustainability coordinator for the Environmental Health and Safety department.
In the past 10 years, DPS only issued about
33 carpool parking permits, Mital said.
Mital hopes the database will encourage
more people to carpool to campus.
“It’s hard to find people who live in your
neighborhood and go to school at the same
time and come home at the same time,” he
said.
The carpool program is “designed to organize that stuff for you,” Mital said.
On the Web site, a driver can type in his or
her neighborhood and input when they go to
and leave from campus. The Web site can also
be used to find rides for other occasions and
destinations, such as a ride to another city.
So far, two University riders are listed
through the database.
Several universities throughout the country
are registered with the Web site. Participating
universities are charged an annual fee of
$200. DPS will fund the program here.
A university’s success with the program de-
pends on how well the Web site is promoted,
said Mark Evanoff, founder of AlterNetRides.
Mital said he will hire a student as carpool
coordinator this week. The coordinator will
work with individuals and help them navigate
the new database. He or she will also to promote the new program on campus and track
the program’s success, he said.
A carpool consists of three or more people.
A carpool parking permit costs $82 for a year.
Carpoolers can purchase a reserved parking
permit for an additional $214.
Annual parking permits are $167 for faculty
and $94 for students.
When split between riders, the cost of a
permit is minimal, Mital said.
Mital said increased carpooling to campus

In my opinion
My job or a blog?
I want to talk about something that
many people are doing and even more
people are talking about. Done by both
porn stars and politicians, the novelty of
this pastime has grown with increasing
frequency. I’m talking, of course, about
blogging. Why? What did you think I
was talking about?
Over the past few years it has become
more popular than ever to post musings
online for the world to see. Numerous
candidates in last year’s election cycle
kept campaign blogs on their Web sites.
But blogging isn’t just for famous people. Saturday The Register-Guard reported that MySpace — a social networking
site — had replaced Google as the most
popular site on the Internet (measured
in page views per month). One of the
more accessible features of MySpace allows users to keep blogs in addition to
maintaining their directory profiles.
Some of these blogs are updated once
in a blue moon. Some of these blogs are
updated several times a day. Some of
these blogs focus on day-to-day events
in the author’s life, while others are full
of pseudo-intellectual posturing in the
forms of poems and essays.
Blogging, which originated through
investigative Internet journalists who
gained notoriety in the late ‘90s, has
been a gold mine for the parasites at the
cable news networks. Now, instead of
repeating what they read in
newspapers, they merely have to hop
GABE BRADLEY
THE WRITING ON THE WALL
online and repeat what they read in a
number of prominent news-oriented
blogs.
But the purpose of this column is not
to chronicle the already well-documented blogging fad; rather, my job is to provide insight, analysis and pure
speculation.
The first question most people have
about any fad is, “Will it last?” In nine
out of 10 cases, the answer is no. In this
case, though, it’s difficult to say. People
love to express themselves. Whether
people will continue to write their innermost thoughts and bad poetry is not really the question. The question is
whether they will continue to do so in
an electronic, public forum, or if such
ramblings will return to speckled composition books from which they
once dwelled.
Personally, I don’t get the appeal of
blogs because it seems like a lot of work
for very little payoff. I mean, how many
people actually read these things? With
INB O X
Anti-Endangered Species
Bill: unacceptable
The Endangered Species Act should
be strengthened to provide more protection for the ever-decreasing number of
endangered plants and wildlife. Pombo’s Anti-Endangered Species Bill fails
on all fronts.
Why do biological species become
endangered in the first place? Loss of
habitat. A plant or animal species
cannot survive if it has no place to grow
and prosper.
Why is protecting plant and wildlife
habitat more important than human’s
short-range economic interest? Because
without plants and wildlife, humans
cannot survive.
Why are laws necessary, and why
do environmental groups and ecolawyers donate countless hours and
dollars trying to protect biodiversity?
hundreds of thousands of blogs out
there, the majority of bloggers must be
sending their thoughts out into cyberoblivion to die lonely deaths.
When I write something, I want as
many people as possible to read it and
hopefully respond. For instance, I
wouldn’t continue to write this weekly
column if the Emerald didn’t have a
wide enough audience to keep a nearly
constant stream of hate mail flowing
through my inbox.
Perhaps that’s why I don’t get the appeal of blogs; they’re not something
new to me. Publishing my random
thoughts for public consumption is my
job, the daily grind, so to speak. There
are some differences, of course. I don’t
get to write my own headlines; I have to
write on a certain time frame and follow
certain guidelines; I have to ask permission in order to use profanity (shit, piss,
damn); also, I have to let other people
cut up my words before they see the
light of day. In exchange for those restrictions, however, I have access to a
much larger audience than is available
to the average blogger.
So to all you bloggers out there
who want a bigger audience, all you
need to do is have me killed and then
submit samples of your work to the
Oregon Daily Emerald on the third
floor of the EMU.
[email protected]
Because wilderness and wildlife have
no one to defend them against human
self-interest.
Developers want to be compensated
for loss of “productive land.” What compensation is offered to the species whose
home is cut down, grazed over or
sucked dry? Ask the Southern California
Kit Fox, or the Wisconsin Cougar. Oh
yeah, you can’t, because they’re extinct.

OREGON DAILY EMERALD LETTERS POLICY
Letters to the editor and guest commentaries are encouraged, and should be sent to [email protected] or submitted at the Oregon Daily Emerald office, EMU Suite 300. Electronic
submissions are preferred. Letters are limited to 250 words, and guest commentaries to 550 words. Authors are limited to one submission per calendar month. Submissions should
include phone number and address for verification. The Emerald reserves the right to edit for space, grammar and style. Guest submissions are published at the discretion of the Emerald.
When it comes to the environment, Oregon tends to be one of the most progressive
states in the nation. Even more exciting is
the fact that the University of Oregon is
about as green as they come.
At the end of last year, University students overwhelmingly approved an ASUO
ballot measure to power our student union
solely with wind energy. For no more than
60 cents per term, per student, the EMU
now derives its electricity through a renewable, turbine-driven power source.
Those who campaigned in favor of the
wind energy ballot easily convinced the
student body that in the midst of a global
crisis over energy, it was important for the
University to delve into alternative, environmentally friendly energy sources. The
University still receives much of its power
from hydro-electric sources, but the success
of the Wind Energy Initiative is a powerful
symbol of students’ commitment to lessen
their effect on the environment.
Also impressive about the University is
the fact that every year, ASUO Street Faire
planners work to make their event recycling-friendly. This year, ASUO Marketing
Director David Watson expressed his desire
to “make it a zero-waste production.” Anyone cruising the sidewalks last week in
search of an available trash can attest to the
fair organizers’ logistical ability to reduce
trash and promote recycling.
Although not specific to Eugene, AlterNetRides.com is a carpool service now accessible to University students and faculty.
AlterNetRides, with a database of drivers
and riders, provides a simple way to reduce
the burning of fossil fuels. Because modern
infrastructure makes it difficult for many to
operate without the help of a motorized vehicle, carpools and other forms of public
transportation provide one of the best ways
to get where you’re going while reducing
your reliance on fossil fuels. We hope students and staff will take advantage of this
easy new service.
Unfortunately, there are still many places
in the United States that lag behind Oregon
in terms of environmental friendliness. Late
last month, the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Resources passed an energy bill that would have, among other provisions, fostered the construction of oil
pipelines in the Arctic National Wildlife
Refuge. Although Republicans later dropped
the bill, it demonstrated some legislators’
willingness to prioritize short-term fuel solutions over long-term environmental stability. Thankfully, logic prevailed.
But unlike the University, the federal
government is still unwilling to research
and implement non-traditional energy options. Sadly, as long as national government encourages environmentally harmful
exploits, it will become increasingly harder
to devise and carry out long-term solutions
to conserve our natural resources.
Oregon residents, University students especially, deserve praise for having the continual goal of a healthy, thriving environment. Even when such a goal incurs a
small cost or inconvenience, locals are willing to make a personal sacrifice for the sake
of something larger. Such a strong focus on
the Earth should not be taken for granted
and should be emulated even more in
the future. We applaud this state and
this school.

exam, students do not have to report
to police right away, Smith said.
Also, students don’t have to press
charges to give a report.
The program is funded by the
state’s Sexual Assault Victims’ Emergency Medical Response Fund,
which will pay for the exam regardless of whether the patient wants to
press criminal charges, Smith said.
Evidence can be collected for up to
84 hours after an assault, but certain
evidence, such as traces of drugs in
urine, will diminish sooner, she said.
After an assault, Smith said, students should not urinate, eat, drink,
smoke, bathe or brush their teeth.
Smith recommends assault victims
bring clothing worn during the assault and a friend for support.
Smith has been working to receive
certification for two years. During
her training, she watched court cases, rode with Eugene police officers
and observed similar exams in the
emergency room.
Smith said her schedule will be
cleared so she can see a sexual assault survivor as soon as possible,
but she will only be able to perform
the exams during the day.
“If it’s the middle of the night and
they need to be seen, they should go
to the emergency room,” she said.
One in six Oregon women has
been raped, and more than 22,000
women in Lane County have experienced rape, according to a 2003
study by the National Violence

Center.

Hardy Myers’ Sexual Assault Task
Force, which includes law enforcement, sexual assault survivors, counselors and forensic nurses.

The 0-6 Ducks will face Corvallis
Friday and attempt to garner their
first Pacific-10 Conference win
BY JEFFREY DRANSFELDT

SPORTS REPORTER
EXCESSIVE CELEBRATION
When he took charge of the Oregon volleyball
team, head coach Jim Moore emphasized that it
would take time to elevate the Ducks to the Pacific10 Conference elite.
This was never more evident than last weekend,
when Oregon’s high hopes of stealing a match
against ranked opponents evaporated with consecutive sweeps to UCLA and USC.
Oregon’s six consecutive losses to start Pac-10
Conference play has the team looking forward to
facing unranked rival Oregon State on Friday in
Corvallis. OSU will be Oregon’s first unranked opponent after playing five consecutive
ranked teams.
Even so, Oregon State won’t be an easy win,
having beaten Arizona State in five games in
Tempe, Ariz. To open the conference schedule the
Sun Devils swept Oregon.
It doesn’t get any better after Oregon State —
Oregon has a two-match homestand against No. 2
Washington and then Washington State on
Oct. 21 and 22.
The opportunities are there for Oregon to win
matches, it just has to take advantage of them,
Moore said.
“We have to compete every night,” Moore said.
“We didn’t do that Friday night (against UCLA)
and that has to change.”
Measuring whether they are improving or winning is secondary to getting a consistent effort,
he said.
“Right now, we can’t measure whether we’re
improving or not if one night we don’t show up to
compete and the next day we do,” Moore said.
Kristen Bitter, Oregon’s 6-foot-4-inch middle
blocker, said getting the experience of playing in a
hostile environment helped.
“It’s really important that we’re able to play with
the same level away that we do at home,”
Bitter said.
Oregon started slowly against UCLA, losing its
first game 30-15. UCLA started with a 9-2 run and
Oregon only got within five the rest of
the game.

off the 31-17 upset.
And unlike Duck fans out there who were
also worried about Oregon’s chances against the
Sun Devils in Tempe, my worries were printed
in 8,500 copies of this paper.
Even worse, I picked against my own school
and had my picture right above it.
I’ll see everyone in a few weeks; I’m entering
the witness protection program.
I guess I could blame my shaky-at-best performance on jitters, as it was my first time making Pacific-10 Conference selections.
But, then again, there is no excuse for correctly picking only one out of four games.
I chose California to beat UCLA. I was wrong.
I picked Washington State to beat Stanford —
wrong again.
In fact, the only game I picked correctly was
USC over Arizona, but everyone and their dog
picked the Trojans last week.
After all, USC entered the game winners of 26
straight and Arizona, which had lost 11 of its last
14 conference games, really had no chance.
To put my performance in perspective, journalism academic advisor Sally Garner, who by
her own admission knew little about any of the
games on Saturday, correctly picked three out of
four games.
Her only loss came because pesky Stanford
upset Washington State.
Congratulations Sally. Maybe we should
switch jobs.
Now don’t get me wrong; I’m not bitter.
I was more pleased than anything that many
of my conference picks went against me.
I was glad to see Cal finally play a quality opponent. Now Jeff Tedford and his Bears have
been exposed after easily getting conference
wins against Washington and Arizona and generously climbing the national polls.
I was also elated to see Stanford rebound with
a win on the road at Washington State. The
Cougars look very susceptible, and remember,
Pullman is arguably Oregon’s toughest remaining road trip this season.
And, of course, it was the biggest win of the
season for the Ducks against the No. 17ranked Sun Devils. Saturday’s game in Tempe
just may be the defining moment for this Oregon team in search of a return trip to a prominent bowl game.
But, you know how I am with predictions.
So if I happen to do something crazy like pick
the Washington Huskies to beat the Ducks this
weekend in Autzen, please don’t badger me
about it — I did it for Oregon’s good.

Hat trick, second-half spurt downs the Ducks

BY SCOTT J. ADAMS
SPORTS REPORTER
NICOLE BARKER | SENIOR PHOTOGRAPHER
Darcie Gardner is one of the many freshmen that head coach Tara Erickson
has started this season. She has started in seven of the Ducks’ 12 games.
The
Pacific-10
Conference
schools of the Grand Canyon State
proved too tough for the Ducks
over the weekend, who lost on the
road to both Arizona and Arizona
State by a combined score of 7-2.
On Friday, Oregon fell 4-2 in its
conference opener against the
Wildcats and was blanked by the
Sun Devils 3-0 on Sunday.
Going into their game against
Arizona (7-3-2 overall, 2-0-0 conference), the Ducks (8-3-1, 0-2-0)
were riding high after winning
Wyoming’s UniWyo Shootout Oct.
2 en route to posting the best start
in program history. Not seen out of
Oregon this weekend were the two
essential parts of its game that
have led to its eight wins — an offense that scores at least once an
outing and a defense that seldom
allows more than one goal.
The loss to Arizona State (6-5-2,
1-1-0) was especially uncharacteristic of the Ducks under first-year
head coach Tara Erickson, who
saw her team’s drive fade in the
second half under the desert sun.
“We played a good half, but we
didn’t play for 90 minutes,” Erickson said. “I think fatigue was a factor, but we didn’t fight through that
and take care of the little things
that allowed us to be successful
earlier this season.”
Led by their young but reliable
freshman goalkeeper Jessie Chatfield, the Oregon defense held the
Sun Devils at bay through a scoreless first half, but buckled early in
the second. Seniors Lara Kezer and
Brittany Cooper drew first blood

MR. CLEANJEAN’S
COIN-OP
LAUNDRY
240 E. 17th
(between
High & Pearl)
0-6 conference) took an early 9-4 lead
with four kills by Mira Djuric and one
from Jaclyn Jones. UCLA (9-5, 2-3)
responded with a 8-2 run to take a
12-11 lead that it wouldn’t relinquish.
Game three was much like game
one, with UCLA running off a 5-1
start and Oregon tying the game at 13
before UCLA took the lead for good
and ended the game 30-24.
UCLA received a large boost from
the return of junior outside hitter Colby Lyman, who missed her previous
five matches with a bone bruise in
her left knee. Lyman totaled 13 digs
and four aces. Nana Meriwether had
nine kills and had helped from Kaitlin
Sather and Nancy Barba, who each
had eight kills.
Djuric led Oregon with 11 kills and
Jones had six.
Less than 24 hours later, Oregon
played No. 17 USC (7-6, 3-2) and
again had a difficult start, as it com-
mitted 21 hitting errors in the first two
games and hit 0.000 over that span.
Oregon lost the first two games, 3020 and 30-19, improved in the third
game, losing 30-23 and upped its hitting percentage to 0.159.
Senior Kelly Russell had a teamhigh 11 kills, Djuric had 10 and Bitter
had nine and an efficient 0.316 hitting percentage.
“She hit ... high above the net,”
Moore said of Bitter. “We keep trying
to tell her that she’s got to make it so
that other people don’t get to play
with her.”
Freshman libero Katie Swoboda
had her second-highest dig total of
the season with 24.
Swoboda’s success is part of what
Oregon needs to be win in conference play, Moore said. Her success
was more impressive, he said, considering she was facing USC’s Debora
Seilhamer, who has played with the
Puerto Rico’s National Team.
Seilhamer had 19 digs for USC.
Bibiana Candelas, a one-time Pac-10
Player of the Week, had 11 kills.
“She played unbelievably well,”
Moore said of Swoboda. “We need to
win some little battles before we worry about winning all the big battles.”
Swoboda is No. 4 in the Pac-10
Conference, averaging 4.58 digs per
game, only trailing Arizona State’s
Sydney Donahue, Seilhamer and
Washington State’s Jalen Pendon.
“She is really talented,” Bitter said.
“The sky is the limit with her, there’s
no telling what she’s going to be able
to do.”
Djuric continues to lead the conference in service aces at 0.66 per game.
She had four against UCLA and two
against USC. Her powerful kills have
her fourth in kills per game at 4.34.
Setter Heather Madison is 10th in
assists per game with 6.73.
[email protected]
Soccer: Abrahamson, Garbin each score
Continued from page 5
for the Sun Devils in the 50th and
56th minutes, respectively, giving
them a comfortable 2-0 lead. Their
front line struck again in the 61st
minute as Elizabeth Bogus tallied
her ninth goal of the season, driving
a shot past Chatfield into the top
right corner of the Ducks’ net. Bogus’ goal was the last scored in the
game, ending the toughest 12 minutes of Oregon’s season thus far.
The Duck offense could not get
past goalkeeper Kim Bingham of
Arizona State, who held Oregon to
just its second scoreless game of the
season. The junior from Pleasanton,
Calif., grabbed three saves, highlighting her second shutout this
year. Not even Oregon’s leading
goal scorer Nicole Garbin had an
answer for the Sun Devils. The senior forward has been an offensive
juggernaut this season, but was
held to just two shots.
The Ducks have been hindered by
injuries all season, two of which sidelined starters Andrea Valadez and
Cristan Higa on Sunday. The reliable
tandem were not in Erickson’s lineup
because both were injured Friday
against the Wildcats. Erickson turned
to her bench for support, calling upon
freshman Taylor Callan and junior Sabrina DeMonte to play. DeMonte made
the most of her outing, managing one
shot on goal. Erickson was pleased
with Callan, who started in place
of Higa.
“Taylor had a good game stepping
in and starting for us at the last
minute,” Erickson said.
Oregon may have lost to No. 23
Arizona two days prior, but the
Ducks’ offense did not go quietly.
Garbin and fellow senior Katie
Abrahamson scored against the defending Pac-10 champions, who
walked away the victor thanks to
senior Mallory Miller, who recorded
her second hat trick of the season.
The game was hard-fought and
played physically by both squads,
leading to 31 fouls called. Joining
Higa and Valadez in the trainer’s office after the game was Chatfield,
who was treated after colliding with
Kelly Nelson of the Wildcats during
the game.
Arizona head coach Bill Tobias
was glad to get a win out of the
goal-heavy game, which featured a
combined 35 shots.
“This is good lesson for our team
and especially our young players,”
Tobias said. “Pac-10 play is very
physical. We have to be prepared
for that. No one is going to back
down from anyone.”
The Ducks look to right their ship
this weekend as the conference’s
Los Angeles schools come to Papé
Field. On Friday, Oregon faces No. 4
UCLA (11-1-0, 1-0-0) at 5 p.m. and
then plays USC (6-4-1, 0-1-0) Sunday at noon.
