■ 2001 -02 ASUO President Nilda

Nair are honored for their efforts
By Danielle Gillespie
Oregon Daily Emerald
To share memories and express
their appreciation, about 50 Uni
versity students gathered at Ger
linger Lounge on Monday to say
farewell to ASUO President Nilda
Brooklyn and Vice President Joy
Nair, whose last day in office will
be Friday.
The event began with Office of
Multicultural Affairs Director Carla
Gary speaking about her apprecia
tion for Brooklyn’s and Nair’s ef
forts to improve student life at the
University and offered words of ad
vice for the incoming ASUO staff.
“You have unlimited horizons,
and you can decide what you want
to do with them,” she said. “It does
not matter where you come from,
you are standing on the shoulders
of those who brought you there.
Tread carefully because your foot
prints are indelible.”
Following Gary’s speech, the
audience watched a video featur
ing short commentaries from stu
dent group members, University
administrators, Programs Finance
Committee members, as well as
ASUO student senators, secre
taries and interns.
Everyone expressed sentiments
of appreciation for Brooklyn’s and
Nair’s work in office and shared
memories of times spent together.
The most common memory shared
was Nair’s boxing performance in
the Interfraternity Council and Pan
hellenic Council’s The Smoker, an
amateur boxing charity event.
After the video, ASUO Student
Senate President Peter Watts spoke,
thanking Brooklyn and Nair for
their work in helping to revise the
ASUO Clark Document and their
efforts to eliminate the energy fee.
Watts also told stories about time
spent together.
“I think we have had some good
times, and I’ll miss you both,” he
said.
Brooklyn and Nair received a
dozen roses and stood to thank the
crowd for their kind words and for
putting on the event.
“I just really appreciate all of you
for giving your love and your sup
port,” Brooklyn said.
Nair agreed and said she was
glad to see so many people had
benefited from their hard work.
Incoming ASUO President
Rachel Pilliod shared a few words
about her memories of friendship
while working with the two
women as their campaign manager.
“You have both taught me a lot
about privilege and have been so
supportive,” she said. “I thank you
both and wish you the best of luck
in the future.”
Ten awards were given to student
groups for hosting the best events
on campus this academic year. The
events were chosen based on a poll
of student group members.
To conclude the evening, incom
ing ASUO staff members for the
2002-03 academic year were an
nounced. A full listing of the new
staff and awards given can be found
