A Guide to Eugene Hoods
Get the fuck off campus. art ALLISON FONDER 1. CAMPUS AREA words NOAH PORTER A radioactive nucleus for student living, the generally accepted boundaries for “campus area” stretch from Kincaid to Pearl Street, between 13th and 18th Avenue. An emerald city of factory-issue condominiums intermittently sprinkled with abandoned high-heels, the dream of Seth from Superbad [...]
WTF STFU
words SAIGE KOLPACK art JULIAN EARNEST As most of you know campus is going smoke and tobacco free. To be honest, I don’t really have much of an opinion on the matter. We all know it’s not good for your health, and if people still want to smoke, it’s their choice. What [...]
YELLOW
This week the Laverne Kraus gallery [in Lawrence Hall] is running a show entitled Yellow, which features the work of three UO arts students. While the artists chose yellow as the common thread throughout their projects, their use of non-precious materials makes this show cohesive. Each artist made special use of everyday items like tape, [...]
Senate Receives “Vagina-gram” From Unnamed Sender
Annually, the Woman’s Center runs a V-Day fundraiser that provides, with a sliding scale donation of five to ten bucks, the ability to send a “Vagina-gram” to your unsuspecting lover, friend, professor, or in tonight’s case, or student government official. “What is a Vagina-gram?” you may ask. A Vaginagram is a song and dance medley [...]
High Minded Dialogue on Hygiene — Thanks ODE
Each week, Oregon Daily Emerald columnist Andrew Hitz brings a unique perspective to the newspapers opinion page. This week Hitz tackles a rather hairy subject: under arm follicles and the female gender. Highlights include: “Natural Selection has spoken via socially constructed norms.” Clearly, this Grizzly Bear is not a Biology major. Next week on the [...]
OV Rollin’
The Oregon Voice is goin’ all green an’ shit. With the help of Dawgs’ Ram, Cara, Mary, Noah and a newly adopted Nowist attitude the OV has its first bike in its ever expanding distribution fleet. Keep your eyes open for the primary-colored mobile distribution unit for the freshest issues.
Fuck the Police
The Oregon Voice staff, we’re no strangers to the flashing red and blue lights. Tonight, it was my turn to face the siren. There I was, mindin’ my own business, atop my Schwinn Continental (thanks, Cara), taking in the brisk summer sunset when out-of-motherfucking-nowhere a DPS officer flicks on his lights and siren behind me. [...]
Phantograms Never Die
Phantogram’s haunting, post-electronic dream pop oozes a certain amount of intoxication, and the epic performance by the New York duo at Eugene’s Willamette Valley Music Festival last Saturday was comparable to watching globules in a lava lamp. I pity any one who wasn’t in attendance. It really was a seductive—if not spellbinding—show. I recently had [...]
Nancy Drew and the Case of the Broken Voice Box
“Nancy! Come quick. There’s trouble on the University of Oregon campus!” Noah exclaimed. His brow was furrowed, he looked concerned. “Oh my goodness!” Nancy yelped. “I biked all the way back to the Campbell Club after leaving the Dance-Off just to tell you about it, since you’re such a super mystery-solver,” added Scot, Editor-in-Chief of [...]
Would you look at that?
That’s meant as the “Gee wiz” or “How interesting” form of the sentence, not asking if people would hypothetically look at something. But while there’s talk of looking, check out our very own Grace Pettygrove’s column in today’s ODE.
Will We Be Able to Review It?
The summer isn’t really winding down. It’s just sitting there. Don’t read our progress report. Anyway, with days between now and the beginning of the ’09/10 school year becoming fewer and fewer in number, it seems like an appropriate time to look in the direction that isn’t backwards. Our first issue will need reviews, and [...]
OV Summer Progress Report
Hi all, Now that the Summer sun has burned many of our ears, necks and backs, we write to you with an update – a progress report of sorts. As noted in our last post, we have a plethora of projects that we’re trying to accomplish before Fall rolls around and here’s where we stand [...]
Newsies
Let’s just all get along, seriously. Poor Grace getting the flack for whatever those crazy newsies are trying to get out of this “strike.” Were all brothers and sisters here in the J-school and we all hear about things in those labs that we spend our days and hard nights in. So read our magezine [...]
The Emerald Strikes Back
As a publication, the Oregon Voice stands behind its writers in print and online. Our blog post in response to the widely publicized and intellectually taxing Oregon Daily Emerald strike has apparently been a source of controversy for both the people involved and the one that wrote it. The fact that relationships between students [Get [...]
Close Shave
Contrary to what you may have read (hopefully not) in today’s Daily Emerald, it’s actually Shave-Shave-Shave-November. It is certainly not No-Shave-November. Please ladies and gentlemen, let not the ol’ wizards at the Emerald convince you otherwise. Please continue to shave your legs, armpits and faces. We need not bearded women. Thank you.

Northern Illinois Shooting
Once again, we have born witness to one of the more heinous aspects of the human condition. A young man has taken away the lives of several college students with an action of utmost selfishness. There is nothing that can justify this kind of killing. Murder is barbaric even with motive, and it is all [...]

Firstly, I want to personally thank the people reading this that put a decent amount of pride into your work. It really makes life a [...]
