A recent article published by The Daily Emerald concerning a speaking event hosted by Ducks 4 Israel featuring IDF soldier Adiel Cohen contained significant oversights and biases that warrant discussion. While reporting on the event, the piece seemed to dismiss Jewish Voices for Peace (JVP) and validate propaganda that pro-Palestine sentiment is anti-Semitism. Moreover, the article portrayed an IDF soldier spreading propaganda and exhibited clear bias in its coverage of the disruption faced by the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) counter-protest. Within the first paragraphs, the Daily Emerald is pushing the narrative that pro-Palestinian activism has made things “really hostile here against Jewish students.” By failing to distinguish criticism of Israeli State policies from anti-Semitism, the article does a disservice to genuine discourse on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The ASUO Presidential and Vice Presidential election has concluded. Mariam Hassan and Kiki Akpakwu won after the election went to a run-off between them and UO Student Power candidates Max Jensen and Maxwell Gullickson. Both UOSP executive candidates withdrew from the race before the runoff election could be conducted. This caused the OurUO president and VP to win by default. The runoffs will continue for the rest of the races beginning Wednesday morning.

Streaming services have undeniably transformed how we consume entertainment, offering vast content at our fingertips. However, beneath the surface of convenience lies a complex landscape of price hikes and consumer rights issues reshaping the entertainment industry through streaming.

As the University of Oregon braces itself for another round of ASUO elections, a critical examination of the candidates reveals a concerning trend: incumbents from the current student government seek re-election under the guise of community improvement. However, their track record tells a different story, stained by disastrous planning decisions such as the mishandling of NASU's oldest tradition and the disenfranchisement of students during the winter term election. This year, three slates vie for student votes: FlockForward, OurUO, and UO Student Power. Amidst promises of change and progress, it's imperative to scrutinize the credentials and actions of each candidate to ensure that history doesn't repeat itself.

Scholz has spent much of his life in higher education, emphasizing equitable accessibility. However, he is an economist at heart. Scholz's values align closely with the board's, but he is out of touch with student demands. This discrepancy has been evident in his failure to address harmful Unviersity investments as university president, which has drawn criticism from student groups like Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP).

When I first found my love for journalism and decided to major in it here at UO, I was met with some apprehension. My grandparents had lots of questions— how much money will you be making in a dying industry? What is your backup plan? Although traditional newspapers might not be valued as highly in a digital world, I personally believe that journalism, and its importance, is shifting— not dying.

ASUO Accused of Cultural Insensitivity and Budgetary Neglect. Last year, ASUO allocated $252,000 for the concert, while this year's concert budget has increased to $350,000. In contrast, NASU received only $675 for events outside the Mother's Day Powwow… ASUO then scheduled a concert on the same day as the Powwow.

The Board of Trustees at the University of Oregon is a governing body established partially through lobbying efforts by Phil Knight, operating as an entirely undemocratically appointed entity. This board holds significant financial power and is crucial in appointing the university president. Notably, their decisions offer insight into their priorities, exemplified by the appointment of an economist with ties to the Bush administration (John Scholz), all transpiring without direct student input. Student frustration caused by the absence of democratic processes in the board's composition and decision-making led to an upcoming organized student action during the board's public meeting this Tuesday.

If the recent Angela Davis talk at Straub Hall proved nothing else, it’s that there are thousands of people on campus interested in what a lifelong radical activist has to say.

The lucky few hundred who managed to snag a seat were treated to a long talk during which she shared insights gained from her decades of work and hopes for the future. But for all she talked about, she kept circling back to one overarching message: nobody can accomplish anything alone.

In a highly anticipated return to the University of Oregon campus after eight years, Angela Davis captivated the audience, acknowledging the commendable work of the Roar Center at the start of her speech. Cheers erupted at her recognition as she glanced toward the glass doors, where students eagerly bundled together for a glimpse. Davis, a renowned activist, and scholar, remarked, "Looks like not everyone who wanted to attend was able to get in," acknowledging the enormous accomplishment this amount of turn out represents as well as the unfortunate reality that, due to organizational mistakes, more students would be denied entry than accepted.

Student clubs and organizations at the University of Oregon express frustration and confusion over the ASUO budget process, citing the overwhelming time commitment required to navigate the system. The recently published "Student Organization Resource Guide" outlines the steps for using organizational funds, but many students feel lost in the complexity of the process. As our student government attempts to appear more responsive to the needs and criticisms of its student body, now is the time to push for a more reasonable student organization budget process.

The University of Oregon buzzes with excitement and anticipation for the upcoming visit of esteemed scholar and activist Angela Davis. Angela Davis, a compelling speaker known for her feminism, civil rights activism, and socialist views, is set to bring her invaluable insights and wealth of experience to the heart of UO.

"The purpose of our direct-action program is to create a situation so crisis-packed that it will inevitably open the door to negotiation…” Dr. King

As winter clings to its last grasps, the recent surprise snowfall in the late hours of Friday night sent shockwaves through the student population at the University of Oregon. Returning home from parties, many were met with frosty air and snowy sidewalks, leading to a mix of excitement, dread, and a touch of nostalgia for the snowy days of the term.

To ensure an informed electorate, here's a guide on how students can get involved and make the most of the upcoming ASUO election events.

A STUDENT SUBMISSION DISCUSSING AN UNUSUAL SOLUTION TO CONTINUED FRATERNITY MISCONDUCT.

As the University of Oregon braces itself for another round of ASUO elections, it's imperative to scrutinize structural flaws that mar our democratic process, contributing to student apathy, voter fatigue, and abysmally low turnout.

WHY SO MANY STUDENTS ARE FRUSTRATED WITH “FAKE” APPLICATIONS IN THE MODERN JOB MARKET.

A recent "die-in" protest organized by Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) at the University of Oregon (UO) has ignited a flurry of debate and discussion among students, faculty, and the wider community. The demonstration, which took place late Wednesday morning on campus, aimed to raise awareness about the ongoing genocide in Palestine and called for university divestment from investments contributing to the violence perpetrated by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). Participants laid down on the ground to simulate being dead; they sought to symbolize solidarity with the Palestinian cause and draw attention to the humanitarian crisis unfolding in the region. However, the event was not without controversy, with opinions among UO students being deeply divided.
