Council
continued from page 1
Eugene resident Bob Pearson said
he hopes the city won’t approve the
Human Rights Commission’s rec
ommendations.
“The Human Rights Commis
sion wants to force its ideas of
morality on the community of Eu
gene,” he said.
Jennifer Self, a 32-year-old psy
chotherapist, said both changes
should be approved.
“It creates safety for those who
have a gender identification outside
of male or female,” Self said.
Self said the proposal regarding
restroom use was the most impor
tant aspect of the hearing and that
the registry is purely symbolic.
“It reflects the values of our city
of human dignity and respect for
all,” Self said. “It’s amazing how this
comes down to a restroom, isn’t it?
We’re talking about dignity.”
City Council will vote on the
proposed amendments 7:30 p.m.
Oet. 28.

Clinton
continued from page 1
Pfeiffer said of the gubernatorial
campaign.
Mike Linman, co-chairman of the
University’s College Democrats,
doesn’t believe the rally is being held
out of necessity as much as it is to get
students excited about voting.
“I don’t think it was made out of
desperation,” Unman said. “(Clin
ton’s) only going to be in areas where
his influence will make a difference.”
Ten years ago, Bradbury and Clin
ton visited the University weeks be
fore Clinton was elected the 42nd
president of the United States. Brad
bury said he distinctly remembers
the University’s atmosphere and
added that he hopes the crowd’s ex
citement will be reminiscent of the
past.
“I just feel it’s so perfect to be go
ing back to Mac Court,” he said.

events such as the “After Septem
ber 11” Teach-in that drew 1,500
participants.
Professors expect to discuss is
sues of oil resources and foreign
policy, the domestic impact of the
war on terrorism, preemption and
international law, assessment of

Backpackers can check out the
University of Oregon Outdoor Pro
gram, a student-funded wilderness
cooperative that plans trips
throughout the year. Their office is
located on the ground floor of the
Erb Memorial Union in Suite 37.
BootsnAll.com is another resource
students can use for making travel
plans. The organization offers a data
base of its members in cities all over
the world. These contacts offer assis
tance to travelers, whether it be infor
mation on cool things to check out or
cool places to stay.
BootsnAll.com President Sean
Keener said the organization is for the
independent traveler. “Students defi
nitely fit into that mold,” Keener said.
Okay, so money’s an issue. But if
you can scrounge up three bucks,
check out the 20th Annual Hood
River Valley Harvest Fest at the
Columbia River Gorge Friday
through Sunday. This festival fea
tures freshly-harvested fruit and
produce from throughout the
Northwest, with more than 120
handicraft and art vendors. The
festival also has food, a harvest
quilt raffle and live entertainment.
A unique opportunity will be of
fered in Pendleton this week, when
the first national competition for fe
male hot air balloonists takes off at
Wildhorse. The Wildhorse Women's
Shootout Balloon Championship
features six days of competitive
tasks and 50 of the top female pilots
in the United States, all competing
for #20,000.
In addition to the shootout, the
sixth annual Wildhorse Hot Air Bal
loon Bash will take place Friday
through Sunday. Wildhorse again will
launch more than 25 balloons from
the Pendleton Round-Up grounds at
dawn on Friday and Saturday morn
ings and from Wildhorse on Sunday.
At dusk on Friday, Wildhorse will
stage a Night Glow at the Round-Up
grounds, where the balloons will be lit
to musical accompaniment.
This barely scratches the surface
of what Oregon has to offer for the
fall traveler, but at least you have a
few more tools you might not have
had two minutes ago. So get your
nose out of the books already.
