stops there.” said Shannon Meehan, the project’s
coordinator.
l.ast term. 304 women rode Saferide. Meehan
said, adding that the number of riders increased
consistently throughout the term.
Dan Williams, University vice president for
administration, gave the ASUO permission to
drive down the closed-off section of 13th Avenue
on Jan. 5. Allowing the van to drive down 13th
Avenue may involve risks, he said, but that’s a
chance the University has to take. The route will
be evaluated at the end of the school year to
decide whether to continue it.
"I thought that this was worth a try. It is the
kind of thing you don’t know whether it will be
. successful until you try it.” he said.
“Going through 13th Avenue is a great
triumph. I think that being accessible to those
classrooms will allow more people to take night
classes.” Meehan said.
“I get a lot of phone calls at the beginning of
each term about women who will not take night
classes because it is too dark, and they are afraid
of how they are going to get home," she added.
While driving down 13th Avenue, the van
turns on both its hazard and interior lights, and
drivers are given explicit directions about how to
drive through the area. Meehan said.
Route signs are being made to indicate the
times the van stops on the street.
Saferide was initiated by the 1985-88 Lynn
I’inckney/John Dreeszen administration to protect
University women from rape.
"They felt, and I still feel that there is the
need that women have a safe way home at night,
and that the risk of rape is too great for women not
only all across the nation, but even in Eugene,”
Meehan said.
The ASUO purchased the vans with over
realized incidental fees with the stipulation that
the vans were to be self-sufficient.
Money to maintain the vans is raised in part
by selling advertising space on the sides of the
vans. The University Bookstore donated $500,
and the Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic
donated $500, which the ASUO used to buy
radios for the vans, allowing drivers to com
municate with the Office of Public Safety.
Men are not eligible to either ride or drive the
vans. This precaution is taken for safety reasons.
Meehan said.
"The risk is just too great to have them (men)
driving or riding, especially because the driver of
the van is in complete control over the van, which
is a lot of control.’’ Meehan said.
Although the drivers’ criminal and driving
records are checked. Meehan said a rape may not
appear on someone's record.
In addition. Meehan said one of the main
reasons Saferide does not allow male drivers is
because of an incident at UCLA in which a
woman was raped by the male escort walking her
home.
"If anything occurred like that, the project
would end immediately.’’ she said.
However, men are involved in other aspects
of Saferide.
"A lot of men call up to say they like the pro
gram and to give suggestions. In fact, it was a
man who originally suggested we open up 13th
Avenue to the van." Meehan said.
Meehan also has had calls from men asking
for information about Saferide for their wives or
girlfriends.
Booth said the idea of an off-campus route
was well received by Westmoreland and Amazon
tenants.
Many women either do not have cars and are
reluctant to wait for and ride public transporta
tion at night, or do have cars but are nervous
about tin; walk from the parking areas to the
classrooms. In; said, making many women reluc
tant to take night classes.
"The people I've heard from so far are glad it
is coming, and once the rest of the tenants hear
the news, I anticipate the same response.” he
said.
The off-campus van is wheelchair accessible.
The vans will run from 6 p.m. to midnight. Sun
day through Thursday, and 8 p.m. to midnight
Friday and Saturday.
