faith or religion — Nazar’s not really
sure what brings out her dedication.
When she was living in Mozam
bique, a woman — who many know
today as Winnie Mandela, Nelson
Mandela’s wife — asked Nazar,
“Why are you doing this?”
“This” referred to her efforts at
a nearby school. The building, de
void of working toilets and so
crowded that classes were held
during five different shifts, needed
serious work. So Nazar rounded up
support in the community, and
with some help, saw to it that
changes were made.
Why was she doing this?
“To feel useful,” she said.
Nazar’s oldest child, Nazish Ab
bas, has her mother’s traits.
Not only is the 27-year-old interest
ed in media production, but she’s also
learned the value of helping others.
“What she really taught us, more
than anything else, is to give back,”
Abbas said of her mother.
Knowing that their mother —
with all her philanthropic efforts
— is best known for “Gogi,”
Nazar’s children followed suit. Re
cently, Abbas and her brother gave
the world more “Gogi.” Nazar’s son
helped trans
form “Gogi”
into anima
tion, and Ab
bas produced
the television
program.
“We’re all on
the same wave
length, we’re all
cracking up on
the same
jokes,” Abbas
said. “So we
thought it was a
together.”
Since Nazar’s arrival to the Uni
versity in April, she has lent her art
work to a number of publications.
“I think to have somebody like
Nigar — not a standard academic
researcher — it’s a boom for us,”
said Todd Lundgren, assistant to the
associate vice president of interna
tional programs.
Nazar, on the other hand, likes to
think of the experience as a “profes
sional upgrade.”
Tonight, Nazar hopes to enlighten
others during her two-hour work
shop. More than anything, she plans
to explain her comic in order to
help people find their way.
“It’s my thoughts,” Nazar said of
her cartoon. “She’s like my mouth
piece, Gogi.”
Because for Nazar, culture finds
its way from tongue to sleeve.

Community

unsettling for him because it’s nor
mal for parties to get out of control
occasionally.
“I think you’re going to get that
kind of thing every couple of years,”
Smith said. “It’s just a college town
and when alcohol is involved at
these parties it can sometimes get
kind of crazy.”
Rennie’s Landing bar manager
Dan Geyer said there is a possibility
of another riot occurring, but the
likelihood of it happening again in
the near future is slim. Geyer said
September’s riot didn’t tarnish his
perception of University students ei
ther. Even if he had the opportunity
to move Rennie’s to a different loca
tion, he said he would want the bar
to stay near campus.
“We rely on students year in and
year out,” Geyer said. “We’re more
than happy to be where we are.”
J.J. Colwell, manager of Philly
Grill, also said that he wouldn’t relo
cate his business. He said he learned
about the riot on the news the morn
ing after it happened, and it didn’t
really change his opinion students.
Colwell said he was not worried
about the possibility of more rioting.
The partygoers just got a little out of
control, and now that they have it
out of their systems, the community
should not have to worry about any
future disturbances, he said.
Delphina store manager Jewel,
who declined to give her last name,
said she learned about the Septem
ber riot in a newspaper.
Even though partygoers were not
representative of the whole student
population, Jewel said her notion of
University students was definitely
changed by the September riot.
“I don’t see (the rioters) as a group
of people who have respect for any
body or anything,” Jewel said.
Terry Connolly, director of gov
ernment affairs at the Eugene
Chamber of Commerce, said that it’s
unfair of people to say that all of the
partygoers were University students.
“I don’t think those who partici
pated in the riot are reflective of the
student body population overall,”
Connolly said.
Despite all the controversy that
resulted from the riot, Connolly said
the community still believes stu
dents are beneficial to the area.
“I think the community as a
whole still has a favorable opinion of
University students,” Connolly said.
“They appreciate the dynamics of
the student body and what it con
tributes to our community.”

Congress

ural resources, I understand the need
for people to have jobs.”
Both candidates said they have role
models that
have inspired
them politically.
VanLeeuwen
looks up to Mar
garet Thatcher
and Elizabeth
Dole, but re
members Abra
ham Lincoln’s
words most of all.
“I’ve quoted
him time and
time again that
‘You do not strengthen the weak by
weakening the strong,”’ she said.
DeFazio, who holds the late U.S.
Sen. Wayne Morse of Oregon in
highest regard, said he has always
admired how Morse stood up for his
beliefs and cast an unpopular vote
against the Vietnam War.
“In essence, it says in making his
decisions, he’ll listen to everybody
and keep an open mind, but he’ll
make decisions free of threats of loss
of political support,” he said. “And
DeFazio
that’s how I always try to represent
my district in the same way he rep
resented our state.”
The two opponents disagree on al
most every issue. The Republican
supports President George W. Bush’s
policies in the
Middle East,
while the Demo
crat joined a
congressional
minority in vot
ing against
Bush’s resolu
tions on Iraq
last week. Van
Leeuwen said
she thinks al
most anyone Vanlppuwpn
can go to college VanLeeuwen
if they try, while DeFazio said more
support is needed to stop the Univer
sity from turning into something re
sembling a corporate entity.
DeFazio outlined specific policies
he’d enact to restore funding to Oregon
universities, while VanLeeuwen said
she’d allow logging on 20 percent of
what Oregon has harvested of its
forests in the past 20 years to fund state
programs such as higher education.
DeFazio said some students need
state help.
“We should be looking at some
targeted taxes on the business com
munity that would fund higher edu
cation more adequately at the state
level,” DeFazio said. “I’m a big sup
porter of always funding Pell Grants
and otherwise increasing the educa
tion fund.”
VanLeeuwen said she thinks that
money earmarked for education of
ten doesn’t end up in the school sys
tem, and she added that funding
could be secured by enacting forest
thinning plans.
“If we had even that 20 percent
(logging) going now, the Oregon Leg
islature would not have had to go
back into session ... you’d have the
additional money of the direct sale of
the forest land into funds to schools
and the roads and the other services
we have come to expect government
to provide for us,” she said.
