News brief
EPD receives fewer
complaints
The Eugene Police Department
patrolled the West University neigh
borhood, Commons Street and Kin
srow Road this Friday and Saturday,
handing out 22 citations.
EPD hasn’t released data about
partying in the campus area for the
past two weekends, but it reported
that this weekend the department
received fewer party complaints and
saw less people walking around than
in the past.
EPD cited 15 people as minors in
possession of alcohol and four peo
ple received open container viola
tions. Two people received noise dis
turbance violations and one person
received a citation for driving under
the influence of alcohol.

for them on Wednesday.

country,” Lazuardi said.
Natalia added that as a former
student in Singapore, she’s used to
being away from her family.
“Usually, in our home, the only
time we get together is Christmas
or New Year,” Natalia said.
Natalia and Lazuardi said they
take more interest in American
holidays than many of their peers.
Natalia added that most interna
tional students don’t take the op
portunity to get involved and cel
ebrate Thanksgiving.
“I think they don’t really care
about the meaning of Thanksgiving;
it’s just nice to have a four-day
weekend,” Natalia said. “I know
most of them go on trips, hang out
at someone’s house, or watch
movies. ... And of course they’ll go
to the after-Thanksgiving sale.”
Because the two students aren’t
worried about being brought down
by severe feelings of homesick
ness, they’re focused on getting as
much enjoyment out of Thanks
giving as possible. For them, the
holiday and the traditions that
surround it are still fresh and mys
terious, so they don’t take any
thing for granted. Natalia and
Lazuardi said eating a turkey din
ner is the thing they are most
looking forward to experiencing.
“It was amazing — so big, when I
saw it in the supermarket,” Natalia
said excitedly.
Florian Goosmann, a University
student from Bonn, Germany, said
he’s also in awe of the traditional
holiday meal. The international
student said he and his host family
are going to spend Thanksgiving at
the coast and have made plans to
rent a couple of cabins.

"I think they don't
really care about the

Thanksgiving; it's just

weekend."
Tjhin Siska Natalia
international student
major from El Salvador and anoth
er participant in the OIP Thanks
giving exchange program, said most
of her international friends don’t in
dulge in celebrating the American
holiday. However, she said foreign
students are wasting an important
cultural opportunity by only view
ing the four-day weekend as a
chance to get out of the city or
hang out with friends.
“I think, being an international
student, it’s good to try to absorb and
know the traditions and customs of
where you’re at,” Serrano said.

are not going well for the state fi
nancially,” she said.
University Senior Vice President
and Provost John Moseley said the
University’s ability to make up for
the lost funding depends largely on
whether voters approve Measure 28
in January. The measure, if passed,
will temporarily raise income taxes
to close gaps in the state budget.
“It won’t be known until February
or March whether we will be able to
do that,” he said.
Currently, Moseley said, the Uni
versity plans to commit $500,000 in
financial aid for low-income students.
“We can do that only in the con
text of not taking further budget
cuts,” he said.
