A new law allows municipalities in
Oregon to use their red-light cameras to
ticket speeders.
Drivers won’t be fined unless they’re
going at least 11 miles per hour over the
speed limit, but the tickets can be issued
regardless of whether the light was red,
yellow or green at the time.
Gerik Kransky of The Street Trust,
a Portland nonprofit that advocates for
EUGENE — After five
straight years of seeing its
undergraduate enrollment
shrink, the University of
Oregon is spending heavily
on an ambitious new recruit-
ment drive.
University leaders hope
to expand the undergraduate
student body by as many as
3,000 during the next eight
years, from a projected
19,000 this fall to more than
22,000 in 2025.
Those added students
will have one thing in
common: They’ll all come
from out of state, according
to the UO administration’s
financial projections.
The UO already has hired
five new full-time high-
school-student recruiters
who will be based in other
states, in addition to two
existing recruiter positions.
This academic year, the
school also will increase
its recruiting “presence”
— typically meaning visits
by UO staffers — in as
many as 20 other states in
the West, Midwest, South
and on the East Coast. In
total, the school’s annual
admissions budget has been
upped by $1.3 million, or
almost 30 percent. Some of
those extra dollars will go

to in-state recruiting efforts.
The UO’s push to recruit
more
nonresident
and
international students isn’t
new or unique. The UO and
other public universities
across the country have
been enrolling more and
more of them for more than
a decade — a practice that
at times has drawn criticism.
The UO’s goal is largely
financial:
Out-of-state
students pay much higher
tuition in an era when
taxpayer support for Oregon
public universities has
sagged. This school year,
a full-time nonresident
student will pay $34,611 in
tuition at the UO, compared
with $11,571 for an Orego-
nian. Adding the projected
3,000 nonresident students
by 2025 could boost the
UO’s annual tuition revenue
by $100 million at current
rates.
Snagging high-achieving
high schoolers from other
states can also help boost
a university’s academic
prestige.
In the past decade, the
UO’s nonresident under-
graduate population has
doubled, from 4,600 in
the 2007-08 school year to
9,249 in 2016-17, going up
almost every year. In the
decade before that, the UO
had kept that population

getting into their local state
university?
California, for example,
this May adopted a strict
nonresident cap for its
popular and prestigious
public universities after
a state audit found that
Californian
college-age
youth had been hurt by the
increase in out-of-state and
international student admis-
sions.
UO officials insist they
have no favoritism for
out-of-staters — although
the number of in-state
students at the UO has
slipped every year since
2011.
“There’s never been
a time in our history that
we’ve taken a resident’s
spot and given it to a
nonresident” student, UO
President Michael Schill
said in a recent interview.
“We’re never going to do
that.”
So far, some numbers
bear that out. The UO
continues to take the vast
majority of Oregon high
school graduates who apply.
Its in-state acceptance rate
has hovered between 82 and
87 percent since 2007, but
hasn’t shown a downward
trend in recent years. That’s
much higher than the rates
for out-of-state or interna-
tional applicants.

as a result of red light cameras, which
otherwise could be enormous.
Testimony submitted in favor of the
bill by the city of Beaverton indicated that
in a recent one-year stretch, the Portland
suburb recorded more than 90,000 “trips”
through their red-light cameras that would
have qualified for a speeding ticket under
the new law. And that’s with just four
intersections with red-light cameras.
City officials from Portland and
Medford also testified in favor of the
measure earlier this year.
flat, between 3,700 and
4,200 students.
From 2007 to 2016,
Oregon State University
and Portland State Univer-
sity also rapidly drew in
more out-of-staters: OSU’s
out-of-state undergraduate
population jumped from
2,302 to 9,055, while PSU’s
went from 10,829 to 15,060.
But the UO stands
out for having the largest
percentage of out-of-state
students — 46.1 percent
of undergraduates in the
2016-17 school year —
among Oregon’s seven
public universities. That
breakdown wasn’t yet avail-
able for this year’s projected
undergraduate student body,
UO officials said Friday.
Public
universities’
pursuit
of
out-of-state
students has at times
raised eyebrows across the
country. Critics worry that,
by acting more like private
schools, universities are
shifting away from their
public purpose: helping
low- and middle-income
families from their own
states receive a top-class
education.
The key barometer for
that criticism has always
been: Is the growing
number of out-of-state
students impeding in-state

“Speed is one of the largest contrib-

if someone is in a crash,” he said. “And
any opportunity we have to enforce safe
speeds is an opportunity to create safe
streets.”
Any speeding ticket issued under the
law will need to be reviewed by a police
officer before a citation is issued. That
could serve as a limiting factor to the
overall number of speeding tickets issued

Deputy justified for car-chase shooting
PORTLAND (AP) — A grand jury has decided a
Polk County sheriff’s deputy’s actions were justified
when he shot at a car during a chase.
The Oregonian/OregonLive reports that Deputy
Martin Watson was cleared of wrongdoing on Monday.
Watson had attempted to pull over a car on Sept.
30 with 18-year-old Jeremy Johnson and 31-year-old
Timothy George in it when a chase began.
Marion County Deputy District Attorney Matthew
Kemmy said the chase ended in Northeast Salem, at
which point a “confrontation” occurred and Watson
fired twice at the car.
Neither Johnson, George nor Watson were injured.
Johnson is charged with first-degree attempted
assault, attempted assault on a public safety officer and
unlawful use of a weapon.
George is charged with felon in possession of a
firearm and possession of methamphetamine.
Woman wakes to find bear in living room
SUMPTER (AP) — A woman in Oregon forgot to
latch her front door and awoke to find a 160-pound bear
in her living room.
The Baker City Herald reports that the bear knocked
over a bookshelf but didn’t harm the 78-year-old
woman.
The 3-year-old male bear was trapped and euthanized
late last week by state wildlife officials.
Authorities have determined it was the same bear
that was shot in the face last month by another startled
resident who found it on his front porch.
It’s the third bear trapped and killed around Sumpter
— population 204 — since Sept. 23.
Brian Ratliff, a wildlife biologist with the Oregon
Department of Fish and Wildlife, says bears may be
coming into more contact with humans because a dry
summer limited their supply of berries.
