Departmental leaders also intro duced 40 new and newly tenured faculty members at the ceremony. “We are blessed with teachers who truly understand the ideal that education makes real,” Frohnmayer said. The colorful ceremony, which took place in Beall Concert Hall, be gan with a procession headed by East Asian Languages and Literature Professor Stephen Durrant, carrying in his hand the University mace. Faculty members in distinguished academic regalia filed in to the ac companiment of lilting melodies by the Oregon Brass Quintet. Guests included Oregon Univer sity System Chancellor Richard Jarvis, state Reps. Vicki Walker and Phil Barnhart, and state Trea surer Randall Edwards. Frohnmayer said Convocation was one of the times the University could think of institutional renewal. He also spoke of the challenges the University is facing, including significant cuts to the educational budget. While he couldn’t promise there would be no tuition increases, he said he could promise an in crease in the quality of education and the number of classes offered. Frohnmayer said the new “deal” is one of the ways the University is addressing the needs for quality ed ucation — it is a plan to distribute higher education costs among stu dents, legislators and universities. He said the University had a re sponsibility to the state to provide quality education to maintain the school’s high standards. “Now is our time, now is our moment, the moment to know what'we are and what we are here for — to know our purpose,” Frohnmayer said. iauca ds ASUO President Rachel Pilliod said ASUO has been working with the president on the new deal. “I think the commitment to quali ty education is an ideal we all share as students and faculty,” Pilliod said. Apart from calls for quality educa tion, there were also demands community engagement in an side the campus. Representing classified staff, Carla McNelly, the executive member of the local Service Employees Interna tional Union, said she was sometimes a little disturbed by a lack of respect for others on campus. “Say hello to the grounds crew or the folks that prepare meals in the residence hall,” McNelly said. “Say hello to the people in the of fice and know their names. Pick up after yourself.” The ceremony ended with the in troduction of new faculty members. “It was fun for me,” said Melissa Redford, a new assistant professor in linguistics. “I’m a new faculty; it was sort of a nice official entrance to the University.” Contact the freelance editor at ayishayahya@dailyemerald.com. Riot continued from page 1A contact with students. “We want to give the police a hu man face,” he said. Patrol Gapt. Eliva Williams said this Halloween, EPD will have all of its officers on duty, and added that there still will be a focused patrol in the West University neighborhood. Meanwhile, EPD has continued to identify people associated with the September riot. On Oct. 23, a Springfield man, Paul Michael Slaven, 19, was arrested for his par ticipation in burning a $6,378 Uni versity-owned golf cart. Sheryl Eyster, assistant dean of the Office of Student Life, said the University has been trying to edu cate students about throwing re sponsible parties, and has looked into ways to provide more late night events on campus. Officials have already extended the hours at the Student Recreation Center. Eyster said University residence halls have programmed several events, while sororities, fraterni ties and student groups have vol unteer activities planned. She said the University has been advertis ing about nonalcoholic Halloween activities that will take place in the community. Contact the reporter atdaniellegillespie@dailyemerald.com.
