NECESSITIES
The University of Oregon dorms may never make the list of “Most beautiful dorms in the country” but they still can be a cozy room that you are proud to call home. These essentials will help you on your way to making your dorm room a comfortable place to live, study and play in for this academic year. Take some time over the next month and assemble these items together to prepare your one-room bunker in Bean Hall.

A healthy supply of pens & pencils as well as other school supplies will keep you productive

WARMTH:
Area rugs and lamps help provide personality and make any space cozy
EAT:
A mini fridge will keep your food close at hand so you can snack while you study
DRESS:
Flip Flops are a must have when you’re sharing a shower

Put Together Your
COLLEGE AID KIT
This is not your parent’s first-aid kit. Yes, you should include the basic first-aid staples like band aids, ibuprofen and allergy medicine (even if you have never had allergies before, you probably will now that you live in the toxic polinated Willamette valley)
Schmirnoff Ice six-pack This is not for you to drink on a Wednesday night after your exam. This six-pack is for you to get back at your friends. Ice your friends by putting these diabetes inducing malt beverages in inclosed spots where your friends will be sure to open. If you don’t know what icing is, Youtube it!
Duck tape Edward 40 hands or taping your text book back together, having duck tape on hand is a must.
Condoms Stay protected, get tested and make smart decisions about your sex life. The University of Oregon Heatlh Center has free condoms in their lobby, so there is no excuse not to have an ample supply of them.
Rainboots Half of the year is spent sludging through the muddy puddles of campus, so make sure you have a good sturdy pair of stylish boots that will repel the incessant Oregon downpour.
Life-proof Phone case You will drop your phone. No matter how careful you may be, it’s going to happen, so why not be prepared? Save yourself the hassle of setting up a new phone away from home by taking preventative measures with a sturdy phone case.

DAY TRIPS
Get out and enjoy the last days of Oregon’s fleeting summer heat.
The Oregon coast town of Florence
The Mount Pisgah Arboretum Living Tree Museum
Just over an hour from Eugene, this small town offers a beautiful selection of coastal beaches, along with affordable dining and quaint shops. For those who wish to travel farther up the coastline, the famous Cannon Beach is unbeatable for its naturalgeographic wonder and sprawling beaches.
This Oregon oasis stretches 209-acres. The arboretum is full of riverside trails through evergreen forests, a water garden abundant with life, meadows of fluorescent wild flowers and open vistas of wide oak savannas. Located at the Howard Buford Recreation Area at 34901 Frank Parrish Rd, the park is open seven days a week from 6am to 7pm.
Hike Tamolitch Falls
Winery Tours: King’s Estate Winery
Known as Blue Pool, take a hike to see the clearest, bluest waters of the McKenzie River and be sure to take photos by the waterfall. This is about an hour and 15 minute drive and the hike is a four mile mellow treck on the longer 26 mile trail.
Glimpses of Oregon
If you are willing to splurge on a good meal, visit King’s Estate Winery for an incredible dinner in an estate with a breathtaking view. This is Oregon’s only winery with a full restaurant and their food is some of the best in the area. If you want to explore the area’s other wine selection, there are more than 16 vineyards with tasting rooms within 20 minutes from town.

DEXTER LAKE
By: Hunter Shannon
The quaint country towns, lush hills and beautiful reservoir of Dexter Lake is just a short trip southeast of Eugene. Here, you can escape the summer rays and enjoy the cool lake water, shaded disc golf, hiking trails and rustic restaurants of Pleasant Hill, Lowell and Dexter. The crowded rivers of the “inner-city” and the public pool hangouts for tweens and toddlers are enough to make anyone feel that the only way to escape the heat is to hideaway in some airconditioned building. But trust me, the short drive out to Dexter Lake’s Atlantis blue water is a much more appealing alternative.
20 minute drive
Where to go: There are variety of swimming spots that surround Dexter Lake but the your closest point with the most amenities is Dexter State Park. One of the top frisbee golf courses in the state is attached to this park and the wooded course makes for a beautiful setting and a challenging game. Every Sunday till the beginning of October, the park hosts a farmers market with fresh local produce and prepared food to enjoy while you swim, hike, boat and play disc golf.
Dining: If you leave town while the sun is still breaking the horizon, make sure to stop at the Sunrise Cafe in Pleasant Hill for a filling and inexpensive diner-style breakfast. The breakfast/lunch joint opens at the early 6:30 am sunrise and closes at 2 pm. For those of you who want food on your way back into Eugene, definitely stop at the Countryside Pizza. They have a pool table, a small arcade, sports on the big screen TVs, a nice salad bar and great family style pizza.
Getting there: Hop on I-5 south and take the exit for OR-58. You will pass Pleasant Hill high school and the turn off for Dexter State Park is only six miles further on your left. The turn off is not well marked so it is easy to overshoot it; just know that if you see the reservoir, you have gone too far. The park is located just a couple minutes before you can see the nice blue water.

END OF SUMMER DAZE
READING
By: Laurel Sturgis O’Coyne
With so few days of summer left before school starts again, you might be feeling as if reading is the last thing you want to do while the weather’s still nice. However, this end-of-summer list is designed to inspire you to read something that you may not get to pick up throughout the school year. Whatever your flavor, whatever your commitment, this list is meant as a reminder that reading can be fun and inspiring - at least when you don’t have grades and deadlines hanging over your head!
WATCHMEN BY: ALAN MOORE AND DAVE GIBBONS (DC COMICS 1986)
Deeper than most superhero comics, this graphic novel deftly blends American history and sci-fi fantasy in a way that will change your view of ‘objective reality’ forever. The characters, the artwork and the narrative all work to construct a frightening and awesome vision of the outcomes of heroic actions.* *The movie is NO substitute for reading the novel!
THE POWER OF HABIT: WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO IN LIFE AND BUSINESS BY: CHARLES DUHLGG (DOUBLEDAY 2012)
Award-winning New York Times business reporter Charles Duhigg offers a scientifically-derived mode of taking control of your life through an enlightened understanding of the power of habit. Whether you seek to strengthen your own career or academic prowess, or you wish you had more self-control over things like health and fitness, this book shows how habits can be both helpful and harmful. It suggests ways in which you can overcome or exploit the power of your own habits as well as others’ in order to strengthen yourself.
STILL LIFE WITH WOODPECKER BY: TOM ROBBINS (BANTAM BOOKS 1980)
My all-time favorite, this novel is light and funny while also creating a world of mystery, intrigue, satire and political drudge. It will make you laugh, and it might even make you cry. With its clever intertwining of philosophy and storytelling, connected through Robbins’ exiled-princess protagonist and her hilarious band of friends, family, and lovers, it will certainly make your jaw drop.
YOUR HEART IS A MUSCLE THE SIZE OF A FIST BY: SUNIL YAPA (BOUDREAUX/LITTLE BROWN & CO. 2016)
This fictional novel is set during the tumultuous and violent 1999 World Trade Organization protests in Seattle. Based on true events, the author deftly constructs plural fictionalized perspectives on the events and connects disparate lives within a seamless and enthralling narrative.
MODERN ROMANCE BY: AZIZ ANSARI WITH ERIC KLINENBERG (PENGUIN 2015)
This nonfiction gem is brought to you by comedian Aziz Ansari, who enlists the help of a sociologist to try to understand today’s dating scene. A New York Times bestsellers list staple, this hilarious take on love in the age of social media is a must for any millennial—as well as anyone trying to wrap their heads around the complexities and absurdities of modern dating.
