BY SALLY SEGAR • TWITTER @SALLYSEGAR As COVID-19 cases continue to rise in Lane County, University of Oregon students are among the many residents seeking tests in Eugene and surrounding areas. COVID-19 testing is offered at community testing events, nearby clinics and through UO’s University Health Services.

Between Friday, Oct. 2, and Monday, Oct. 5, Lane County Public Health reported 1,432 COVID-19 tests throughout the county. LCPH reported over 400 tests each day the following two days.

University Health Services, or UHS, provides testing for UO students. To test students for active infections, UHS uses the RNA Quantitative Real-Time RT polymerase chain reaction test, or simply, the qPCR test, according to the UHS website. The test is conducted using a nylon nasopharyngeal swab that is inserted until about halfway between the nostril and the ear and rotated several times, according to a video of the procedure from COPAN Diagnostics.

UHS also offers the blood antibody test to test for past infection, especially if travel, employment or visitation requires it, according to the site. However, “[UHS] clinicians order the nasopharyngeal swab much more regularly,” UHS Director Debra Beck said in an email.

Asymptomatic students in congregate living and those who have had contact with a known case are eligible for testing as long as testing supplies are available, Beck said, and students with symptoms can see a clinician at UHS. UHS is collaborating with the UO Monitoring and Assessment Program to test students living in the residence halls, she said. UHS administers the tests, communicates results to students and supports those who test positive, she said, while MAP operates the lab.

The surveillance testing for students living in residence halls occurs in Matthew Knight Arena and UO does not publish the location of MAP’s testing laboratory for security reasons, UO spokesperson Saul Hubbard said.

Jose Paniagua is a UO freshman living in Justice Bean Hall. Paniagua said he and other first-years were nervous about getting tested because a positive result meant quarantining before moving into the residence halls.

The overall testing process at Matthew Knight Arena was pretty straightforward and organized, Paniagua said — he got his negative diagnosis a little less than 24 hours after the test.

Volunteers outside the arena wore masks, he said, and those performing the tests wore full-body white suits. The suited testers handed students q-tip-like tools to put up both nostrils, Paniagua said.

It wasn’t painful, he said, and “it wasn’t as far as I imagined.”

experiences.

Annika Mayne is a sophomore studying art and Native American studies. Mayne went to Nova Urgent Care on Patterson St. and E 13th Ave. Mayne said she visited the university’s testing webpage, but preferred Nova’s online check-in options and same-day rapid antigen testing.

Mayne said Nova was “cheap” and “convenient.”

Antigen testing, a test for current infection, according to the CDC definition, can use a nasal swab to collect samples in the nostrils.

A nasal swab does not push into the sinuses like the nasopharyngeal swab for the qPCR test, according to a graphic from the Louisiana Department of Health. However, antigen tests — often referred to as “rapid tests” — are “generally less sensitive” than PCR tests.

UO tests students moving into residence halls with the qPCR test and a nasal swab, according to Katy George with UO’s Strategic Communications and Marketing.

Mayne said she got her results from Nova exactly 20 minutes after getting a q-tip “aggressively” shoved up both nostrils.

“Kind of a weird feeling, but you should get tested for COVID, so it doesn’t matter,” she said.

“It’s like 15 seconds of annoyance.”

Francesca Muchow, a senior studying political science and legal studies, said she was very impressed with her testing experience at UHS in July.

Muchow was not symptomatic, but she had been traveling over the summer and wanted to be certain she didn’t have the virus.

Muchow got a “slightly uncomfortable” qPCR test the same day she called UHS and remembers getting the results within 48 hours. She was surprised that the process was so quick given anecdotes she’d heard about long wait times for testing.

Alexey Didenko, a senior in UO’s business school, also got tested at UHS. Didenko said in an email the nasal swab “burned like when chlorinated pool water gets up your nose,” and he got his results three days later.

With his insurance, the cost of the exam and test at UHS cost Didenko less than $60.

Beck said individual situations vary with insurance coverage and cost, but “most students will not have out-of-pocket expenses for these tests.” Students that need assistance with payment can apply for funds from UO, she said.

Didenko said he was impressed with UHS’s cleaning and personal protective equipment standards. Everyone wore full-body suits, visors “and, like, three masks,” he said, and what looked like individual mechanical air systems.

“Made me happy to see them taking this seriously,” he said.

THREE MORE ARRESTED IN CONNECTION WITH MAY 29 ‘RIOT’: On Oct. 8, Eugene Police arrested three more individuals with rioting charges. The three allegedly participated in what EPD classified as a “riot” on May 29 when a small group of protesters caused property damage after the police killing of George Floyd just a few nights before. A rioting charge may result in up to five years in prison or a $150,000 fine. Seventeen people have been arrested so far with more to come, according to EPD. – JACK FORREST

A DREAMER WANTS TO HELP OTHER STUDENTS IN THE SAME SHOES

When he’s not busy with his studies or selling vintage apparel through his business BounceBack Thrifts, third-year advertising student Eduardo Olivares, a recipient of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, wants to be a resource for other Dreamer students at the University of Oregon.

Olivares moved from Mexico to the United States when he was five years old. While he navigated unfamiliar surroundings, Olivares said he found a number of mentors throughout his life who have inspired him and guided him to where he is now.

As a first-generation college student, Olivares credits his school teachers for providing resources and support that helped him apply for college. In middle school, Olivares enrolled in Advancement Via Individual Determination, or AVID, a nonprofit college-readiness program that is offered at schools across the U.S. “In middle school, I didn’t even know what college was,” he said.

“My parents obviously haven’t had a college education.”

Through the AVID program, Olivares learned about his own goals as a student and prepared for college. He said his AVID teacher, Mrs. Baxter, was a big reason why he applied for scholarships and excelled in school.

“She taught me ever since I was in middle school,” he said.

“I remember talking to her and her telling me about the things I needed to do to get to where I want to be.”

Being a firstgeneration college student is something

that Olivares takes a lot of pride in, he said. In high school, he saw getting into a college as a huge accomplishment not only for himself, but also for his parents.

“I really don’t know where I would be if my parents didn’t take that risk and bring us to a new country, so it’s definitely impacted me a lot,” he said. “I’m always grateful for my parents and what they’ve done to get me to where I am.”

Olivares said being a Dreamer student has also pushed him to work harder and stay motivated. “I am at a disadvantage simply for not being born in this country,” he said. “But I don’t see that as a weakness. I see that more as a strength.”

When he was 17, Olivares said he started the long and expensive process of applying for DACA, a program that provides protections to undocumented immigrants brought to the U.S. as children. “That process, to begin with, is ridiculous,” he said. “I don’t think people really understand what the program is really like.”

DACA renewal costs around $500, Justine Carpenter, the Director of Multicultural and Identity-Based Services at UO, said. However, Carpenter said the university has emergency funding available to help students pay for the cost of DACA renewal if the need arises.

Carpenter also said DACA recipients should consult an attorney when filling out the application. “The university contracts with a local immigration attorney and we get them in touch,” she said. “The attorney can provide legal services to DACA students, free of charge.”

Olivares said Carpenter connected him with the immigration attorney to help with filing his DACA renewal every year. On Aug. 21, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services reduced DACA renewal protections from two years to one year.

Olivares said he is grateful to have a DACA work permit and be a part of the program.

“There’s a lot of people that don’t even have a work permit,” he said. “I’m fortunate enough to be able to get a job.”

However, he hopes there will be an easier renewal process for DACA recipients and a better path to citizenship in the future. “There’s really no easy process for this,” he said. “It’s unfortunate that people are really just trying

‘DESERT NOTEBOOKS’ THE 2020 MUSINGS OF A WHITE MAN

A NEW BOOK FROM CLIMATE CHANGE REPORTER BEN EHRENREICH ATTEMPTS TO ANALYZE THIS TURBULENT YEAR, BUT ENDS UP BEING DISORGANIZED IN AND OF ITSELF.

BY AUDREY KALMAN The desert looms large in cultural imagery. Appearing in everything from the Bible to Thelma and Louise, the biome’s barren landscape can be used to signify many things. Imagining cacti, rattlesnakes or extreme temperatures can bring to mind a full range of experiences — everything from extreme hardship and struggle, to freedom and liberation. In his new book “Desert Notebooks: A Road Map for the End of Time,” Ben Ehrenreich anchors his social, cultural and political analysis in the desert.

Ehrenreich uses the ubiquitous image of the desert to analyze the present moment, simultaneously providing reassurance and uncertainty. While “Desert Notebooks” was listed as one of “13 Books You Need to Read This Fall” by WIRED and as a new and recommendable book by the New York Times, it presents more confusion than conclusion.

The author’s firm political stances come across early on. This comes as no surprise given his job as a writer on climate change for The Nation. He refers to Donald Trump as “the Rhino” and writes about the president by saying things like, “Today, at least, he was too scattered to insult Kim Jong-un.”

Ehrenreich also makes his stances clear regarding American’s abhorrent racial history. He states that “the doctrine of progress” was first “a theory of white supremacy.” These statements read as certain and firm. But Ehrenreich’s writing is also very scattered at times. He jumps from analyzing the French Revolution to mentioning that global warming — by way of rising sea levels — is endangering the “mysterious sculpted heads” on Easter Island.

This disorganized writing, which comprises a good portion of the book, is where Enhrenreich’s own privilege comes into play. He questions and overtly criticizes American power structures which empower straight, White, cisgendered men such as himself. He does not, however, examine his own role in these power structures. This leads to the question: Would a Black woman be able to publish a book that rambles about everything from ancient history to Ivanka Trump?

“Desert Notebooks” documents how scary our world is, from unnecessary international conflicts to the myriad shortcomings in our domestic politics. But do we really need another account of how chaotic the world is, especially from someone who occupies a position of such extreme privilege? Ehrenreich’s book is quite informative, and in that sense it is a more-than-decent record of the United States lately. But it leaves readers wanting more. More analysis of what is happening, for instance, could be a better use of Ehrenreich’s expertise. His 2016 book about what life is like in Palestine right now was written after he reported thoroughly on that situation from the West Bank. The strength of Enhrenreich’s first book seems to be its journalistic nature. When he tries to write about broad topics in his new book, it comes across as all over the place. “Desert Notebooks” leaves readers craving focus.

“Desert Notebooks” is a book that tries to write about everything and ends up presenting nothing new or noteworthy. Not only does this leave readers’ heads spinning, but it is also not constructive. It feels like a redundant book. How many times do we need to have a White man tell us that things are bad in America right now?

OPINION

Taking a break is a

luxury reserved for the privileged

BY EMILY BORCHARDT • TWITTER @EMILYFBORCHA

Think twice before telling a student worker to “take a mental health break.”

The simple truth is that we can’t. I, like many other students, have to figure out ways to support myself while also trying to graduate. Taking a break means losing income or falling behind in classes.

Taking a break is a privilege I can’t afford.

During my freshman year of college, my dad was diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma. Coming from a singleparent household, I feared losing my only parent, but I didn’t have time to think about that. It was now up to me to search for any job I could find to help pay for my already overpriced education. I struggled, but eventually found a job as a first-year program assistant, where I help first-year students navigate through their first term of college.

Luckily, by the end of the summer, my dad was in remission, but that didn’t mean we had regained financial security.

Because of the aggressive

treatment my dad had to endure, he no longer had the physical ability to work.

He had to retire, collect his pension early and live on his Social Security checks.

We had no time to rejoice his recovery, because all we could think about was the financial strain this would put on us. I got a second job as a lifeguard.

I started to realize that I would need to find an internship to put under my belt for my resume. I was praying that I would be able to find one that would actually pay me. And though I found a paid internship that I love,it’s important to note that not everyone is lucky enough to get paid.

A wave of relief washed over me because I had now secured three jobs, but I didn’t know the toll it would take on me mentally and physically.

My third year of college was one of the most mentally and physically draining years I had ever experienced.

I had doubled my workload as an FYP assistant, I had taken as many shifts as possible at the pool and I was driving back and forth from Eugene to Salem for my internship almost every week all while taking 16 credits.

I never had a moment for myself.

On my rare days off, I slept as much as I could, but still woke up early so I

(Hunter Reed/Emerald)

could focus on schoolwork. I made it through the year while working numerous jobs and getting the grades I wanted, but, to be honest, it did a number on my mental health. I was so busy that forgetting meals was common and sleeping six hours was a rare blessing. I looked exhausted every single day. Even then, I still needed to make sure I was clocking in those hours and studying, because taking care of myself just wasn’t a priority.

According to a study conducted

by Georgetown University in 2015, from 70% to 80% of college students are also workers, and about 40% of undergraduates work over 30 hours a week.

This study also noted that a student working a full-time job earning minimum wage earns a little over $15,000 a year. If it isn’t already obvious, this is not enough to pay for both tuition and living expenses.

In fact, the University of Oregon estimates tuition to be $13,857 this year.

If student workers’ wages were increased to $15 an hour, maybe we’d finally be able to take some time off.

Studies show that when workers are paid higher wages it increases their morale and productivity. Furthermore,

economists have linked higher wages with better mental and physical health.

I’m writing this after being in classes and working two separate jobs all day. All I can say is I’m tired. And I know many other student workers feel exactly the same. I shouldn’t feel guilty for taking a day off. I shouldn’t be falling behind in classes because I need to pick up another shift just to afford groceries for the week.

There are multiple options on campus that provide students with groceries and meals, but a working person shouldn’t have to rely on this.

We are working various jobs and can’t even afford to buy our own groceries.

This obviously proves that the wages we make are not sustainable.

I came to college for an education, not to work three jobs, but I can’t afford one without the other. UO, your employees are the reason your facilities run; it’s time to take care of them. The board of trustees approved a $100,000 bonus to President Schill in December 2019. During that same time, I was working three jobs while preparing for four finals. Don’t tell me to take time off until the UO pays me a wage I rightfully deserve.
