This issue:
Where can students go to get
intormation about housing? What's
there to do in Eugene? What are the
new regulations for the Eugene Mall?
How big is the University Library?
What really happened with the
University's budget problems last
year? What's that mean for this
year?
What does the Oregon coast offer
for things to do? How do you go about
getting a parking permit on campus?
What does the State Board of Higher
Education do?
What new courses will be taught
about women and ethnic minorities?
What's in store for the football season
this fall?
Answers to these questions and
more can be found in this issue: the
Oregon Daily Emerald's 150-page,
seven section orientation edition. It is
designed to introduce fall term
students to the University com
munity, what goes on, what's
available and where to go for help if
you need it.
Today's orientation edition is
divided into seven general areas:
— Innovative education, ex
plaining some of the more unusual
educational experiences going on
around campus.
— Administration and student
services, telling how this University
works and what kind of services it
offers.
— Student government, showing
the various ASUO agencies and
programs, how they work, plus in
depth interviews with the ASUO
President and Vice President.
— Community, explaining the
structure of city government, how
urban renewal is shaping the
downtown area, several community
services, and what to do in the city.
— Sports, with a look at the
Oregon football season so far, and
explanations of the intercollegiate
sports, including basketball and
baseball, and the smaller, participant
intramurals and club sports. Also,
two pages on women's sports at the
University.
— Statewide recreation, telling
what there is to do around the state of
Oregon.
— Photography, being basically a
visual, photographic look at the world
around us.
All 150 pages of the orientation
edition are designed to inform fall
term students about the community
in which they live. We hope it does the
job well.
Obviously, we couldn't include,
information about everything in the
University community, but we've
attempted to cover most of the ideas,
hassles, services and resources
students run into.
