Is free speech at risk? THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON IS PROPOSING A NEW POLICY,
regulating the time, place and manner of protests on campus. Although administration says this better enables free speech, students and faculty say the policy is limiting.

UO STUDENTS RALLY IN RESPONSE TO TRUMP TRAVEL BAN ➥ DRAKE
HILLS @LIVELIFEDRAKE
Students and community activists stood in unison on the University of Oregon campus. The EMU Fishbowl was filled as individuals took the stage to tell the crowd how they felt about the travel ban, campus climate and acts of mistreatment in the community. The Multicultural Center, Men’s Center, MEChA and Muslim Student Association banded together as one group for the event, calling themselves “UO United.� “We are doing this because we must realize that there are a lot of different ideas that are circulating around within American society and the way that some people choose to believe those [ideas], the way that some people choose to resist, and the way that some people choose to create those ideas needs to be recognized
within the media,� said Alejandro Fierro-Stephens, a co-director of the Multicultural Center. Stephens said the purpose of the rally was to encourage students to spread love and not hate. The importance of education was a strong talking point. “Education without awareness has zero value,� said Haytham Abo-Adel, group advisor to the Muslim Student Association. “If you are willing to find the right path, your heart will lead you.� Abo-Adel is from Yemen, a country included in the recent Immigration Ban. UO United hopes to continue to collaborate in the future and is interested in planning more events to fight for equality, peace and love in the campus community.

University of Oregon students can expect significant tuition increases next year. President Michael Schill announced that the Tuition Fees and Advisory Board has recommended increasing tuition by $21 a credit hour— or $945 a year— for all students. The TFAB is composed of students, administrators, faculty and staff members from UO. In addition to the tuition increase, TFAB also proposed a new $50 per term technology fee. The increases have not been finalized but Schill said few other options are available. “I regret that I have little choice but to accept the TFAB recommendations on tuition and fees for next year,� Schill said in the announcement. “After receiving public input, I will forward my final tuition recommendation to the UO Board of Trustees for consideration at its next regular meeting on March 2–3.� Out-of-state students are bearing less of the burden than in previous years. Last year they saw an increase of 4.5 percent compared to a potential 3 percent increase this year. Instead, costs are shifting to residents who are looking at an increase of 10.6 percent compared to the 4.7 percent last year. Schill has said many times that tuition will continue to increase.
Reasons for the increases vary from a broken Public Employee Retirement System to disinvestment in education by the state. “I wish it were not necessary for us to increase tuition by these significant amounts,� Schill said. “Yet the state’s fiscal problems leave us no choice. Oregon’s disinvestment in higher education over more than two decades has shifted the burden of paying for college from the state to our students and families.� Schill called on the university community, students, alumni and friends to urge legislators to prioritize education funding. According to the recommendation, even $20 million given to education would reduce increases by 1 percent. The Governor’s Budget for 2017-19 does not project an increase in public funding for education despite a letter signed by public university presidents asking for a $100 million increase. Schill said that even with these increases, the university will still have a gap of $8.8 million next year. The tuition proposal is available for public viewing, and Schill invited members of the university community to comment on it before his recommendation is made in March. The window to comment will close on Friday Feb. 17.

A time and place

HENDERSON
Crowds of students rushed into the streets of the University of Oregon, venting their frustration and chanting, “Fuck Donald Trump� as they passed through the intersection of 13th and Kincaid on election night. Students said standing and yelling with peers was therapeutic in the face of an unclear future. The demonstration was spontaneous, loud and disruptive — and protected by First Amendment free speech safeguards. But if new rules being considered by UO administrators are adopted, outcries like the one on Nov. 8 could be considered a violation of university policy. The frequency of demonstrations this year has shown that protesting is part of the culture at UO. Whether it is a post-election demonstration at the EMU or a sit-in at Johnson Hall, students practice free speech in many ways. This is why the guidelines set forth by a proposed time, place and manner policy worry some students. UO undergraduate Andrew Dunn, external director of staff for ASUO, says the proposed policy is too limiting. “There is really a lack of specificity in a lot of the policy language, which is a huge problem. It seems that it would be left up to the interpretation of the administration,� Dunn said. “I think that the way the policy is designed could drastically limit the voice of students on campus.� The Time, Place, Manner and Protection of Speech Policy, proposed by UO General Counsel Kevin Reed, limits where speech activities can occur. For example, the policy mandates that students ask for permission to protest in certain spaces. The policy states that, “The interior spaces of university buildings are, generally, exclusively reserved for university business activities and therefore are not open for speech activities unless properly reserved in advance through the facilities scheduling policy.� The TPM policy also includes guidelines for posting signs not related to UO affairs, restricts writing with chalk on walls and demands that sound at protests be held to a PA G E 4

reasonable volume during university hours, but does not specify the exact decibels. When Reed arrived at UO in 2015 from his position at UCLA as vice chancellor of legal affairs, he expressed to President Michael Schill that he was concerned the university didn’t have a clear procedure on how to respond to protests. Reed said the proposed policy “is all about enabling free speech and not restricting it.� He said the policy is necessary to prevent certain protests from suffering more critical regulation on a case-by-case basis. A set of protocols established ahead of time provides clear guidelines for students about what is allowed and what isn’t. “There isn’t a mature entity I think in the nation that doesn’t have rules that restrict the time, and the place and the manner where free speech happens. When they’re done right – and I hope they are done right – they’re about empowering people to speak,� Reed said. Senate President Bill Harbaugh said the university has no need for this new policy. Members of the university Senate disagree with parts of the policy. The Senate will be proposing an altered policy to President Schill probably around early spring, Harbaugh said. “The university has operated under the existing rules for six years now without any problems,� Harbaugh said. “Why are General Counsel Reed and President Schill looking for problems where there have not been any problems?� Although some students and faculty are upset about this policy, it does not violate the law, according to UO journalism school First Amendment chair Kyu Ho Youm. Youm says regulations regarding time, place and manner are constitutional because they do not affect the content of the speech activity. If there is still space available for students to protest, then such policies are allowed. The policy would only be unconstitutional if there were no places for students to demonstrate. “Time, place and manner regulation is simply a regulation which is designed to accommodate the speaker’s interest to express

Q: Isn’t the fair just for business majors? A: We can’t say it enough—all students are welcome at UO career fairs. In fact, the Career Center makes a strong effort to bring a wide variety of companies to campus so all students can benefit from the opportunities. Industries for this winter include: real estate, healthcare, sports and leisure, technology, science, transportation, community and social services, natural resources, government and public administration, and more!
Q: What if I’m overwhelmed? Is it OK to just come and walk through the fair to see what it is like? A: Absolutely! Feel free to browse the attending employers and get a feel for how the fair works. If you have any questions, there will be Career Center staff throughout the room, and we are more than happy to help. Who knows, you might even stumble upon your dream internship or job.
Q: Should I dress formally? A: We recommend dressing to impress— somewhere in between a formal suit and your jeans and t-shirt look. Most employers expect business casual attire. This means dress pants or skirt, a blouse or button-up, a blazer doesn’t hurt, and some nice closed-toe shoes. Think of something you might wear to work or for a presentation and then take it up one notch.

the message without being excessively or unconstitutionally punished for the message, and so content is still protected,” Youm said. Many universities, including Oregon State University, have policies regarding the time, place and manner of protests to avoid disruption of dayto-day activities on campus. The policy at OSU has similarities with UO’s proposed policy, such as rules on noise not being disruptive. A major difference between the two policies is that OSU’s policy allows protesting inside buildings; Reed’s proposed policy says that interior spaces are not allowed for speech activity, unless they are designated for it. The policy has drawn concern from activist clubs on campus, such as the Climate Justice League, a student club that advocates for social change. Last year, the group held a campaign called Divest UO, which sought to reduce the UO Foundation’s investment in fossil fuels. Through protests and sit-ins, the campaign was successful. Co-director of Climate Justice League, Sahalee McFarland, a junior anthropology major, is worried that the potential new policy would limit the success of future campaigns. “The club’s general feelings are that [the proposed policy] is pretty restrictive and it really limits student’s free speech,” McFarland said. Aspects of the policy appear to be a direct result of the Divest UO campaign and might signal that Divest UO

instigated the creation of this policy, McFarland said. Reed said that the policy is not a direct response to the Divest UO demonstrations. “The only real restriction on expression activity are restrictions that are related to making sure that the campus can operate and engage in its daily activities of teaching and research and learning without unreasonable disruption,” Reed said. Students have been protesting in Johnson Hall, the way the Divest UO movement did, since the 1960s and ‘70s. According to an Emerald article from 1970, students had a 31-hour overnight sit-in at Johnson Hall to protest the Vietnam War. Sixty-one protesters were arrested for trespassing and disorderly conduct in a nearly twohour confrontation with police. The proposed policy will also likely affect ROAR, a student activist group that runs campaigns opposing oppression. ROAR President Augustine Beard, a junior history and environmental studies major, believes that the policy takes away from UO’s history and culture of protesting. “The Time, Place, Manner policy undermines the rich history of activism at the University of Oregon,” Beard said. “From Vietnam protests, to queer rights activism, to Students Against Sweatshop Labor, to the GTFF Strike, to Divest, to Black Student Task Force, protest and direct action have been tools of social progress for our campus.”
Protestors surrendered voluntarily to police during an ASUO strike in 1970. Police arrested 61 people for trespassing and disorderly conduct after a 30-hour sit-in in Johnson Hall. (Emerald Archives, April 24, 1970)
University Senate Town Hall The University Senate will host a town hall meeting to receive input on the proposed time, place and manner policy. Students and Community members are advised to attend. The event is being held to review options for revising the proposed policy.

After a loss at UCLA last Thursday, No. 5 Oregon had to regroup to conquer USC on Saturday night. The Ducks marched into the Galen Center and came out with an 8170 win over USC, and despite foul trouble, avoided another loss after leading by double digits. Los Angeles native Tyler Dorsey put away four 3-pointers in the Ducks’ win while Dillon Brooks led all scorers with 21 points despite fouling out. In recent games, the Ducks came out with early leads, even in the loss at UCLA. This time, it took Oregon a little longer to create a gap in the first half. USC failed to make a field goal for four minutes during the first half but went on a run to bring the game within one point after the Ducks created an 11-point lead. Brooks led Ducks scorers at halftime with 12 points as the Ducks had a 35-33 lead. Oregon was out-blocked 4-1 by the Trojans at the intermission. The Ducks had a few highlight worthy plays, but Oregon could have extended its lead with a more straightforward performance.
The Trojans took a 42-40 lead early on in the second half after USC knocked down several 3-pointers. As USC led 50-46 with under 13 minutes to play, Jordan Bell, Dorsey and Brooks each had three fouls. Dorsey then turned up the heat and knocked home two 3s while Chris Boucher added one of his own to give the Ducks the lead once again. Just when Oregon began to pull away, USC came right back with around four minutes to play. With 3:38 left in the game, Brooks fouled out, ending his night with 21 points while USC went on a 7-0 run. Dorsey’s 3-pointer continued to flourish as he nailed his fourth triple of the night to give the Ducks a comfortable eight-point lead. Bell finished his night with a double-double, scoring 12 points and grabbing 14 rebounds. Oregon did not have much pressure at the end and won 81-70 with little trouble at the end barring a flagrant foul on USC’s Chimezie Metu for a slap on Payton Pritchard’s back. The Ducks return to Eugene this week for their final home stand, against Utah and Colorado.
The Authoritarian Handbook CHAPTER TWO: Pick a Target, Any Target ➡ CARL
Step 1:
SEGERSTROM, @CARLSCHIRPS
Define the others and tell people how bad they are.
There’s something in the air, you can almost feel it. It’s anger, fear or some combination of both. People have lost jobs that might not be coming back. Reports of violence in cities and abroad are dominating the news. This is a great time to find someone to blame. Scapegoating is one of the all-time classics and is a linchpin of any authoritarian regime. As despotic leaders, we are only at our strongest when we have something to push against. It always helps to pick on marginalized people. People fleeing oppression and wars are always good targets because, well, let’s face it: they’re too poor and beleaguered to fight back. Whichever people you choose, tell your people that they (the others) are coming for us and are hell bent on destroying us and our way of life. After all, It’s only natural to kill before being killed.
They’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and their sending those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. they’re bringing crime. They’re racists, and some I assume are good people.”
Step 2:
Keep the others out.
In step two, you should start excluding certain groups of people. Pick easy targets like poor people and those fleeing oppression. You can even include some sort of religious element; dividing people by religion almost always works! If you’re feeling ambitious you can even take on two different groups. “I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.” Whoa, that’s a little ambitious, but it’s good to see that kind of enthusiasm. It’s great messaging to give people a tangible object. Giving people a construction project to cast their insecurities, fears and doubts on is excellent messaging. (Not quite sure about the how they’ll pay for it part, but why split hairs.) After you’ve set up this scene of strife and conflict on the frontier, you can always set your sights abroad. It helps to start small here. You don’t want to alienate potential allies and you can’t set your sights too high. Pick some countries and people with little political capital, declare them enemies and stop them from coming to your country. Consider banning people from destabilized countries that have little in common culturally with you, especially countries that you don’t have any financial interest in.
Everybody is arguing whether or not it is a ban. call it what you want, it is about keeping bad people (with bad intentions) out of country!” DONALD TRUMP
DONALD TRUMP
Good work, you picked identifiable targets who can be found throughout the country. No need to shut off certain groups from potential future demonization.
destabilization and Step 3: Promote radicalization. An important aspect of creating and maintaining an atmosphere of fear is cultivating your enemies. A two-fold strategy works best here: continue with any conflicts you have abroad and make sure your enemies know that you oppose them. Use absolute language to convey your message, but make sure not to be too specific or offer any evidence.
We must keep evil out of our country!” DONALD TRUMP
If you say something like this (on the heels of a ban of a certain set of people) you send a clear message to your enemies. They know that we are against them, we think they are medieval and barbaric, and that we agree with them that we are enemies. The best way to maintain fear is by creating the circumstances that enliven your opposition. By making overtly religious statements that feed the propaganda machines of your radicalized foes, you have ensured that the enemy you desperately need to justify your concentration of power will persist.
This is a great example of proving your claims by making statements that don’t rely on evidence but still evoke emotion. Forget the fact that the people you are keeping out are incredibly unlikely to pursue violence; instead, focus on an unprovable assertion based on emotion. Remember, what you lack in facts you can make up in fear.
Step 4:
Normalize violence.
Since your regime has established that other people are out to get us, we need to separate specific groups of people to ensure we have a real and absolutely evil enemy. One of the final and most essential means to achieving an authoritarian regime is normalizing the use of violence. Let’s close ranks with other despotic leaders and agree that war and civilian deaths are understandable and necessary. If someone criticizes a fellow authoritarian leader, here’s one way you can respond to them about the inevitability of violence:
There are a lot of killers. Do you think our country is so innocent? Do you think our country is so innocent?” DONALD TRUMP
While war and violence are not unique to authoritarian regimes, they serve them well. Fear and violence cause society to seek a strong, war ready figure, and the authoritarian never backs down from a fight.
