đ&#x;“Ł EDITORIAL
KEEPING THE CONVERSATION ALIVE The following is the opinion of the Emerald editorial board and not Emerald Media Group as a whole. The Emerald Editorial Board is comprised of the 2015-2016 management staff and opinion editor: Dahlia Bazzaz, Kaylee Tornay, Kira Hoffelmeyer, Jack Heffernan, Cooper Green, Scott Greenstone and Tanner Owens.
In his response to the Oct. 1 shooting at Umpqua Community College, an exasperated President Barack Obama said the nation has become numb to such horrific mass shootings — that the reporting and reaction have become routine. On the University of Oregon campus, however, the reaction was anything but numb. The community reacted in shock, fear, anger and grief. This shooting was a catalyst for a conversation that many campus members have probably engaged in before — but unlike other instances, the geographic proximity of this tragedy has left a wound that will take much longer to heal. Amidst debate about safety and autonomy, we would encourage students to avoid one thing above all else: letting this conversation dwindle into odious silence like it has to this point. A common mindset at this intersection is that nothing can be done to prevent violent people from obtaining guns and threatening public safety. However, we know UO is filled with advocates who passionately work to create safe spaces for dialogue about issues like sexual assault. We encourage students to parallel this effort so that our conversation about safety continues beyond the initial, emotional response. A vigil will be held Monday, Oct. 5 at 7 p.m. in the EMU amphitheater. It will provide us a chance to grieve as a community, to acknowledge the wrongness of what has occurred. But when we turn an eye to the future to decide what action should be taken to break the pattern of mass shootings, our opinions about our approach could quickly divide us. We would urge students to consider the complexities of this issue and avoid the binary argument that efforts can only be focused on guns or people separately. Rather, approach it as a combination of the two. In this conversation, we want students to remember two things. First, consider the humanity of your peers and the value of their opinions regardless of their stances on gun control. Additionally, avoid using the umbrella term of “mental health� to categorize violent acts, as it does little to pinpoint individuals in need and often deepens the stigma and shame that lingers in society with regard to mentally ill individuals. We want our campus and others around the nation to be able to thrive in safety. In the coming weeks, the only way we can fail our brothers and sisters in Roseburg is to let the conversation about the significance of the shooting cease. In recent years, the student body pushed the issue of sexual assault to the forefront of conversation about campus security. We believe that passion can have equally tangible effects if students apply it to the issue of preventing mass shootings.

riginally a chemistry major with dreams of pursuing a career in teaching, a single biology class changed Heather Chorzempa’s life. Biology 211 with professor John Postlethwait greatly influenced Chorzempa. By the end of the term, she went up to Postlethwait and asked how she could learn more about cancer and the field of biology. “All I wanted to do is learn more and understand more,� Chorzempa said. Now, Chorzempa is a student researcher at Postlethwait’s lab in the biology department. She studies genes involved with the cancercausing disease known as Fanconi Anemia. Not only does she have an interest in cancer research, but also a personal connection to it. Chorzempa is familiar with the effects of this disease, as her grandmother spent her life fighting the recessive gene disorder. People with Fanconi Anemia can suffer through many lifelong symptoms, such as low red blood cell count, bone marrow

failure and birth defects. These defects can lead to children being born deaf, skin discoloration and missing kidneys, according to the Heathline website. Chorzempa’s grandmother had cancer six times as a result of Fanconi Anemia before eventually passing away, but her struggle inspired Chorzempa to study the disease. “She was the strongest lady, ever. She was a role model to me,� Chorzempa said. Chorzempa switched her major to biology and was allowed to work at the Tim Starrs Lab at the University of Minnesota over the summer. Her grandmother’s connections to the University of Minnesota, through researchers studying her illness, allowed Chorzempa to assist in the lab despite having very little understanding of biology. “People don’t generally switch [their major] that late; she’s a special case,� said Braedan McClusky, a fellow student at the John Postlethwait lab. Chorzempa is passionate about her research project, which studies the genes rad51c and fanca in zebra fish that relate
to FA under supervisor Catherine Wilson. Fanca is fairly well know as a part of the sequence that causes FA. Rad51c is a fairly new gene being studied in relation to FA, with researchers still trying to determine if it causes FA or not, Chorzempa said. “This [project] is kind of my baby,� Chorzempa said. In the long run, Chorzempa hopes to continue researching cancer and FA along with her studies in the labs at the University of Minnesota. Approximately one in 131,000 children in the United States are born with FA, according to the Fanconi Anemia Research Fund. That’s 31 babies born with the disease in the U.S each year, while the Median life expectancy for those with the disease is thirty three years. Wherever her path may take her, Chorzempa’s fellow researchers see a bright future for her. “She could go in any direction she wants to at this point,� said Peter Batzel, a Research Assistant at the Postlethwait lab.

David Kildal, an Umpqua Community College alumnus, was about to leave for a 12 p.m. class at the University of Oregon when he heard about the shooting. Sitting in his class, not knowing if his community was safe, was excruciating. “There was a lot of waiting and hoping everything was going to be okay,” Kildal said. Though the University of Oregon Police Department did not identify any physical danger to students as a result of the shooting, the UO community — Douglas County natives or not — felt the impact. On a wall next to the Starbucks in the Erb Memorial Union, students expressed that impact on long pieces of paper below a prompt that reads: “The UCC tragedy makes me feel…” Words like “hopeless” and “NUMB” were scribbled next to longer statements about solidarity and gun control. Former UO student Coleton Baker was on vacation in Alaska when the shooting took place. Three of Baker’s family members were present at UCC – his mother-in-law, cousin and his wife’s cousin. Luckily, no one in his family were injured. Baker grew up in Douglas County, met his wife at UCC and played a major role in the community through playing sports and being a cadet for marine patrol for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. He played basketball at UCC and was a guard for the Oregon basketball team last year. Now, he and his family live in Springfield, but he remains an active community member despite his distance.
“IT’S GUT WRENCHING. IT’S SOMETHING YOU NEVER EXPECT,” BAKER SAID. YOU SEE IT ON TV, AND THEN YOU GET A PHONE CALL SAYING IT’S HAPPENING TO YOU, IN A COMMUNITY THAT YOU GREW UP IN, PEOPLE YOU KNOW AND RESPECT. YOU JUST WANT TO DO SOMETHING. IT’S JUST UNREAL. YOU FEEL FOR THE OTHERS. ” COLETON BAKER, Former UO student
Logan Wetherell, an alum of UCC and the UO, once took an English class in the same room where the shooting took place. “In my head, I’m going through which of my professors might’ve been shot,” Wetherell said. Wetherell was at at work for the Umpqua National Forest when he heard about the shooting. While scrolling through his Facebook feed, he came across multiple posts from friends who were looking for their loved ones. That’s when he broke down.
A sign of support is laid across candles. (Samuel Marshall)
“YOU CAN TAKE THE BOY OR THE GIRL OUT OF DOUGLAS COUNTY, BUT YOU JUST CAN’T TAKE DOUGLAS COUNTY OUT OF THEM,” COLETON BAKER, Former UO student
Douglas County natives never forget their roots, according to Baker. UCC is a symbolic center of Douglas County, Kildal said. Baker described the school as a tight-knit community. “As far as the UCC campus, it’s kind of like high school in a way, it’s a very small community. Everyone kind of knows who you are,” Baker said. Baker said it was overwhelming waiting for the list of victims’ names to come out that day. Kildal wasn’t able to make sense of the whole matter until he heard the names of the victims. “It definitely took a while to get my mind around it all,” Kildal said. “When I did hear the names, it kind of
hit me then.” The respect and encouragement of the people from Roseburg and surrounding areas, Baker says, will be what keeps the community strong and closer than ever. UO President Michael J. Schill sent an email out four hours after the shooting took place. He encouraged affected students and staff at UO to seek counseling from the University Counseling Center, and reminded the community that the UO has a “robust planning, response and notification system” for incidents like this. “The UO is a community that takes care of one another. Please reach out or speak up if you or someone you know needs help,” Schill wrote. Members of UO’s Enterprise Risk Services, the department that handles emergency response on campus, have been assisting UCC since the shooting occurred. The UO’s team is one of the only campus departments in the state trained to the national standard, which is one of the reasons they are assisting UCC, said Andre LeDuc, the Executive Director of Enterprise Risk Services. It’s been 31 years since the UO experienced a shooting. On Nov. 13, 1984, a 19-year-old UO student — clad in combat gear and black facepaint — opened fire with a high powered
rifle at Autzen Stadium. He killed one student and injured another before committing suicide. “Unfortunately, we at the University of Oregon are one of the statistics in the unfortunate line of data around campus shootings,” LeDuc said. UO has a designated incident management team that deals with most crises on campus, from inclement weather to incidents of violence like the Roseburg shooting. “In the event of a catastrophic event, UOPD officers would be able to provide immediate police response to campus, and engage a threat directly,” said Kelly McIver, University of Oregon Police Department public information officer. “Those police officers would be able to assist with building searches to clear unsecured areas, and then allow medical personnel to more quickly enter to treat any wounded.” On Monday Oct. 5, a vigil will take place in the EMU amphitheater to show solidarity with the community. The vigil will begin at 7 p.m. Baker says the tight-knit community of Douglas County will remain strong. “Everyone knows who you are, you know who they are. The community itself is just… so close,” Baker said. “It’s a family.”

PAC-12 ROUNDUP ➡ WILL While four teams in the Pac-12 had a bye week this past weekend, the four Pac-12 match ups provided an early look at how the conference’s top teams stack up. Arizona State rebounded from a shaky early season start to upset UCLA on the road. Stanford made a statement in a rout over Arizona, while Cal stayed undefeated by sneaking past Washington State at home. Oregon 41 – Colorado 24 The Ducks rebounded from last week’s colossal loss to No. 5 Utah with a victory over lowly Colorado. The Buffaloes entered the game with a 17-game Pac-12 losing streak, and Oregon used a big second half to extend it. Running backs Royce Freeman and Taj Griffin led the way for the Ducks as the team had 537 yards of total offense, 361 of which came on the ground. Freeman had 27 carries for 163 yards and two touchdowns, while Griffin added 11 carries for 110 yards and a touchdown. Oregon’s defense, led by DeForest Buckner and Rodney Hardrick, had a much better showing this week. The Ducks held the Buffaloes to one touchdown in the second half while amassing three turnovers in the game. No. 24 California 34 – Washington

State 28 For the second week in a row, Cal trailed against a team it was favored to beat. This time, at home against Pac-12 cellar dweller Washington State, the Golden Bears were in danger of an upset. Although WSU quarterback Luke Falk threw for 389 yards and two touchdowns, it wasn’t enough to dethrone Cal, as its defense forced four turnovers and had seven sacks in the win. Cal quarterback Jared Goff, a Heisman trophy candidate, went 33-for-45 for 390 yards and four touchdowns, outperforming Falk and Washington State’s “air-raid” offense. The Golden Bears get their first true test of the season when they travel to Salt Lake City, Utah next week to face the Utes. ESPN’s College Gameday will be in attendance. Arizona State 38 – No. 7 UCLA 23 Arizona State’s season appeared to be in jeopardy after two early season losses, most recently to USC last week. The Sun Devils had the look of a determined team on Saturday at UCLA, though. Quarterback Mike Bercovici helped Arizona State amass 465 yards of total offense, while the defense did its job in limiting UCLA playmakers Josh Rosen
and Paul Perkins. Rosen completed 55 percent of his passes and added an interception, while Perkins was limited to 3.5 yards per carry. The Sun Devils outscored the Bruins 14-0 in the third quarter to take a 2910 lead entering the fourth, but UCLA responded with two touchdowns to get within six points late in the fourth. A Kalen Ballage 23-yard touchdown run with 45 seconds left in the game sealed the win for Arizona State. No. 18 Stanford 55 – Arizona 17 Stanford appears to be the early favorite in the Pac-12 north after a convincing victory over Arizona at home. The Cardinal combined for 314 yards and four touchdowns on the ground, led by running backs Christian McCaffrey and Barry Sanders. McCaffrey, Stanford’s leading rusher, scored his first rushing touchdown of the season late in the first quarter before finishing the game with 17 carries for 156 yards and that score. Sanders rushed four times, but his presence was felt as he finished with 76 yards and a score. Arizona quarterback Jerrard Randall started in place of the injured Anu Solomon. Randall finished with 184 yards yards, 67 yards rushing, and one touchdown.

THE AVOCADO: A FRUIT’S JOURNEY ➥ NEGINA
PIRZAD, @NEGINAPEPINA
As I browse the produce aisles at the Safeway on 18th Avenue, the only food I really have my eye out for is an avocado. It’s the creamy goodness I look forward to at every meal, and the only fruit that I make single store trips for. I daydream about the fresh green slices that I’ll pair with my eggs in the morning and the too-ripe ones that I’ll turn into guacamole. I do this while I pick up one avocado after another, groping its widest point, seeing how deep my fingertips sink into the thick, glossy, green skin. While I judge each fruit and pick out the ones I think are as close to perfection as possible, I can’t help but imagine the journey that avocados take to reach this exact Safeway I’m shopping at in Eugene. The store employee who was manning the produce department let me know that Safeway avocados are shipped through a distributor named Charlie’s Produce and they either come from California or Mexico, but mostly Mexico. So I guess the “Avocados from Mexico� company and commercial that we all saw during last year’s Super Bowl is true — my favorite fruit really does travel all the way from our neighboring country in the south and lands in grocery stores in the Pacific Northwest. Now, I know that avocados aren’t people who can feel emotions and make their own decisions. But if they were, what an incredibly unfortunate way to live their first few months of existence. They come for a better life, where they will grace our supermarkets instead of roasting in the sun after falling from commercial avocado trees — only to be used and often abused by Americans. The chosen ones are picked and packaged into crates to travel up north, while others that are bruised and unusable are left without opportunities.
After the travelers make it into our stores, there’s more judging that happens with buyers. If they weren’t physically bruised when they came off those transportation trucks, emotional bruising is bound to happen. Picked up and prodded, just as I did in Safeway this week, examined and contemplated, these avocados’ lives are determined for them by us. We, the American clientele, have control over the Mexican fruits and their futures. Their beauty and versatility got them to the U.S., but at this point, it is the beginning of the end for them. Whether they are picked up by a college student who neglects to turn them into anything, who let them rot away in their refrigerators along with moldy bread and a carton of milk they forgot to dump out, or they go home with a family of five who only wants them for a couple bowls of guacamole for Sunday Night Football, these avocados are finished. Mexican Avocados are food and they are devoured just as bananas from Costa Rica and wheat from Ethiopia, but the journeys these imported foods take often go unnoticed by consumers. I hold avocados very dear to my heart and I’ve developed an emotional attachment to them in recent years. Because of this, I felt the need to trace their origins and learn about their experiences before they make it onto a slice of Dave’s Killer Bread for my breakfast. I think it’s worth it to see where the food we eat comes from and the conditions they are regulated under. Next time you’re at the grocery store, try to read a few labels and ask workers any questions you might have. Look up recipes to use your ingredients in the most delicious ways, and, in the end, appreciate the food you’re able to consume.
