continued from page 1
with a notebook and fled.
The third and most severe attack
occurred Feb. 29 about 2:30 p.m. on
the bike path leading from the Uni
versity to the Autzen Stadium area.
A female University student was
walking near the Autzen footbridge
when a man followed her, made
threatening comments, fondled her
and tried to push her off the walk
way and into nearby bushes, ac
cording to Eugene Police Depart
ment reports. The suspect fled
when other people walking along
the path approached.
DPS and EPD officers say there is
no clear connection between the
three attacks, other than that
women walking alone in relatively
isolated areas were targeted. No
suspects have been identified.
“This could be a coincidence or
perhaps something else,” Fitz
patrick said.
Fitzpatrick said the bulletins will
encourage students to avoid walk
ing alone, follow well-lighted paths
and use such campus programs as
Project Saferide.
EPD Detective Pat Ryan, who
works with the violent crimes unit,
also suggested people avoid dark,
isolated places.
( 4 There's never going to
be a sufficient amount of
light, but students have to
make appropriate deci
sions about where they go.

“You have a number of areas
from 1-5 to downtown where there
is a lot of brush, and it’s easy to be
isolated,” he said. “It’s a situation
where somebody could get one-on
one with a potential victim.”
Ryan said the bulletins might
help prevent attacks if students
take the time to read them.
“If a student pays attention to
them, reads them and takes them to
heart, the chances of becoming a
victim are greatly reduced,” he
said.
DPS is forming a strategy along
with the Office of Student Life to
place the bulletins in conspicuous
places on campus and to make the
bulletins sufficiently eye-catching.
Shayna Kent, ASUO safety advo
cate, said the bulletins might help
reduce crime.
“Students need to be more in
formed,” she said. “There’s never
going to be a sufficient amount of
light, but students have to make ap
propriate decisions about where
they go.”
Kent, who is working on an
ASUO safety information pam
phlet, suggested that students use
main entrances to buildings, walk
in pairs or groups and stay in well
lighted areas. Kent is also working
to convince the University to put
up more lights around campus and
reinstall Duck Feet, the yellow,
duck-shaped reflective footprint
paths that lead through well-light
ed areas.
Gambling

gered $50 or less.
“The figure [72 percent] seems
very high, but what does it in
clude?” Gray said. “Everything
from playing ‘horse’ in the back
yard on up is gambling, and if I
get a survey asking me to mention
all gambling, and I put that down,
then the answer is yes, I’ve gam
bled. Most of what we’re talking
about is not things like betting
with a bookie.”
Of more concern to Gray and
Bill Clever, assistant director of
compliance, was the statistic stat
ing that more than 5 percent of
male student athletes provided in
formation for gambling purposes,
bet on a game in which they par
ticipated or accepted money for
performing poorly in a game.
“Five percent; that’s kind of
scary,” Clever said.
Gray said he does not feel that
the University is any more likely
to have athletes who gamble than
any other school and that Eu
gene’s relatively small size may
provide a safer environment for
athletes than most colleges.
The National Collegiate Athlet
ic Association recently began con
ducting background checks on all
officials working at the men’s bas
ketball championship tourna
ment, looking specifically for any
previous instances of gambling.
Greg Graham, an assistant
coach for the Ducks basketball
team, said he supports the
NCAA’s decision to conduct the
background checks.
“I think it’s good,” Graham said.
“If you’re an official, you’re under
the same restrictions as the coach
es or players, and you should
have nothing to hide. [The back
ground checks] help to keep the
integrity of the officials intact.”
Ann Vollano and Mike Cross of
the University of Michigan’s ath
letic department conducted the
two surveys. The survey of stu
dent athletes is the only compre
hensive quantitative research
done on student-athlete gambling
in at least 10 years.
