NEWS RESEARCH, FACULTY FEEL EFFECTS OF

GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN

BY EMILY MATLOCK AND ZACK DEMARS

While the longest partial government shutdown affected federal workers across the country, including IRS workers and FBI agents, some functions at the University of Oregon were hindered as well.

Betsy Boyd, the University of Oregon associate vice president for federal affairs, said that while the government has been shut down a number of times in the past few decades, the latest shutdown was unique. “ ere’s never been a shutdown like this one,” Boyd said. “Granted it is a partial government shutdown so it does not affect all parts of the federal government, but the length, the lack of urgency about resolving it, the uncertainty about a path forward, all of that makes it atypical in my experience.” e shutdown, which began on Dec. 22, 2018 over funding for President Trump’s proposed border wall, ended last Friday when Trump signed a bill that would keep the government open until Feb. 15. According to the New York Times, Trump will keep negotiating with Congress for funding a border wall.

Boyd said the biggest impact of the shutdown on the university was the effect on individual students, like those whose family members didn’t receive paychecks.

“I remain concerned about students whose families may not have applied for financial aid because they’ve been government employees and may now be facing cash constraints,” she said. “I hope that students in that position are talking to financial aid or student affairs because there are folks that want to help them.”

Although there is a temporary reprieve, a few areas of the university have been impacted by the shutdown, and some impacts could have lingering effects.

Research Proposals Left Waiting About 80 percent of research funding granted to

UO faculty comes from federal sources, according to the latest data from the Office of the Vice President for Research & Innovation.

While some agencies that fund UO research, like the Department of Education, remained open, others, like the National Science Foundation, were closed during the shutdown. is meant that researchers who proposed projects to those agencies during the shutdown had to wait to communicate with the agency and wait for their proposals to be reviewed, said Cassandra Moseley, senior associate vice president for Research and Innovation. is delay becomes especially problematic for researchers when their proposals are timesensitive. Moseley gave an example of Forest Service efforts: “In the Forest Service right now, they’re not doing any prescribed fire or pile burning. If they miss those windows, which are usually a couple weeks a year, they’re going to wait until next year,” Moseley said. “ ere is a lot in the federal government that is going to wait until next year.”

However, Boyd said many of UO’s researchers are reimbursed for their expenditures, so it’s not always as disruptive to research.

“I think our university, because of the composition of our research program, which is especially oriented to the National Institute of Health and Institute of Education Sciences, is dealing with fewer research impacts than other institutions.”

most of those issues were resolved when the department changed the process for verifying that information in early January of this year.

Since the Department of Education is currently funded by the government, student aid payments are still being distributed, both Brooks and Boyd said. e number of students whose financial aid at UO was impacted is much smaller than at some other schools, Brooks said, because most students had submitted their FAFSA information in the fall prior to the shutdown. Brooks said other schools where more students come to campus in the winter are facing more challenges.

Continued on page 4

Financial Aid e Department of Education, which oversees Federal Student Aid, was still open during the shutdown, said Jim Brooks, director of Student Aid and Scholarships.

Difficulties did come up for some students, Brooks said, when trying to verify information for their FAFSA with other federal agencies that are closed during the shutdown. Brooks said that Attendees ask Representative Peter DeFazio questions and share their personal stories about how the government shutdown impacted them.

A NEWS GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN: Continued from page 3

But some individual UO students who may need documents from the IRS for their financial aid are encountering challenges, Boyd said. e financial aid office is working with those students on a caseby-case basis, she said.

Brooks, who was interviewed by the Emerald before Congress and the president struck a temporary deal, estimated that the shutdown would create more difficulties for financial aid if it continued through late February, when the university begins to inform new students of their financial aid awards.

“Where that might get tricky is if this shutdown goes on too much longer,” Brooks said. “I don’t think anybody anticipates the shutdown going that long, but I don’t think anyone anticipated them going as long as they’ve gone right now.”

SNAP food benefits Individuals who are enrolled in the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program receive monthly benefits to buy groceries. Funds are usually distributed on or after the first of the month; however, benefits for February were released early on Friday, Jan. 18 due to the shutdown.

“It is very important to carefully budget your food benefits through February,” Dawn Myers, SNAP program manager, wrote in a letter to those enrolled in the program.

According to the Student Sustainability Center’s website, many students who are on work-study programs or who receive other aid are also eligible for SNAP benefits. While the funding for food security programs remains at least through February, there are a number of other programs through the university that can support students facing food insecurity. e Student Sustainability Center works with Partners for a Hunger-Free Oregon and the Department of Human Services to enroll students in food assistance programs and offers a variety of other support. More information can be found at dos.uoregon.edu/food.

DeFazio addresses impact on community members and military personnel A bill was passed in September 2018 to ensure that military branches under the Department of Defense would have secure funding through at least September 2019. Despite passing the bill, members of the Coast Guard that are considered essential have been required to work without pay through the shutdown because they fall under the Department of Homeland Security.

According to the Student Veterans Center, about 450 people at UO have self-identified as being a member of the military or are military-affiliated.

Congressman Peter DeFazio held a town hall meeting on Saturday to hear from members of the community on how the shutdown has affected them. ough the government is now open, DeFazio said, “It’s not over yet.”

DeFazio commented on how a wall would not be the best way to spend money for border security.

He said more funding should be spent on better technology and hiring more personnel to protect borders. He also noted that the Coast Guard, which was working without pay during the shutdown, intercepts more drugs than Customs and Border Protection at the southern border.

Maria Kalnbach, the nontraditional and veteran student engagement and success coordinator at UO, said her son, a Coast Guardsman, has been impacted by the shutdown. Her husband is a retired Coast Guardsman as well, and she says she hasn’t seen an impact like this before.

“It’s hard as a mom to worry about your son. Just knowing that he’s struggling to figure out how he’s going to be able to pay the rent next month and how that’s all going to work out,” said Kalnbach.

While her son was on leave a few weeks ago, she said she stocked him up on groceries and helped him get a car payment delayed until he had the money to pay it.

Many community organizations like churches and food banks have offered to help unpaid servicemen and women. Kalnbach said that any students facing concerns because of the shutdown can reach out to her to brainstorm and seek out resources for assistance. “ e bottom line is it’s a relief that we have three weeks when people will be paid and the government will begin to have people back in their positions but it’s by no means over,” Boyd said. “So from a university standpoint, we’re continuing to pay very close attention to this. I think students or anyone that’s affected should know that their elected officials want to hear from them.”

DINO DISCO:

A NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM

BY DANI ROSALES • TWITTER @DANIROSALES27 Disco lights illuminated the room as a person in a six-foot tall inflatable dinosaur costume waddled around the dance floor leading a conga line.

University of Oregon senior Sara Brown was the one donning the costume. Brown is a member of the Museum of Natural and Cultural History’s student club at UO. e club put together a Dino Disco on Jan. 25 to celebrate the opening of the museum’s new exhibit, Dinosaurs Fake Flight.

Brown — who has been part of the club since her freshman year — wore the costume to hype up the attendees who were encouraged to dress up in their “dino best” and participate in a costume contest.

Although the number of people who showed up in costumes was small, those who did were enthusiastic about their dino getup.

Guthrie Stafford, Elle Coleman, Elise Beck and Chaucie Edwards were part of a group of students that came dressed as evolution. “ ere’s a common question: Which came first, the chicken or the egg? We have the definitive

answer,” Stafford said. eir evolutionary process starts out with an egg, which evolves into a velociraptor, which evolves into an archaeopteryx — a bird-like dinosaur — which ultimately becomes a chicken. ey referred to it as “the evolutionary process at work: a snapshot in time.” eir homemade getup consisted of construction paper accessories taped to their heads, recycled plastic bottle beaks and tails, repurposed scraps of fuzzy fabric as wings and, for the egg, pillows to stuff the shirt. e group had an eco-friendly crafting party to prepare for the night. ey bought and repurposed recycled materials to fit their costumes.

“Save the planet ’cuz what happened to the dinosaurs could happen to us,” Stafford said.

For Stafford, who came up with the idea to go, attending the event was an opportunity to work on his new year’s resolution.

“To go out and experience the nightlife,” he said.

“ is is one step in that direction.”

After modeling their costumes to a cheering crowd, the group — who were the only ones dressed up — was declared the winner. But, in a final twist, another contestant, who didn’t realize the judging was happening, stepped up to show her costume.

She was dressed as cowgirl ichthyornis with a homemade white cardboard mask and wings.

In the end, the two parties decided to share their prizes: a sloth teddy bear and a water bottle. e group came to the event to spend a disco night surrounded by dinos and win a costume party — which they did.

“What I like about dinosaurs is that they’re awesome,” Stafford said. “It’s like a lizard the size of a truck. at’s just so cool.” e exhibit is on display now and will be open through May 19. e Museum of Natural and Cultural History is open Tuesday through Sunday from 11:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m. For more information on prices and other exhibits visit their website.

SEXUAL WELLNESS GUIDE:

EDUCATION AND PLEASURE WITH EUGENE INTIMACY HEALTH CENTER

BY DANA SPARKS • TWITTER @DANAMSPARKS Safe sex is a lot more complicated than slapping on a condom. It’s a balance of communication, pleasure and education — something that many people don’t hear during the “sex talk.”

Of course, there are the basics — contraceptives and protections against sexually transmitted infections — but depending on what kind of pleasure you want and how you seek it, there may be certain safe practices that are just right for you.

“Sex shouldn’t be something you tolerate. It’s something that should be pleasurable to both, or all, parties,” said Kim Marks, the owner and founder of As You Like It Pleasure Shop and the Eugene Intimate Health Center. “Safe sex is individualized — it’s someone’s risk tolerance.”

While considering this idea of pleasure-oriented sexual health, begin with evaluating what pleasure is to you. Ask yourself what feels good, what you’re comfortable doing and what you’re comfortable asking someone else to do.

Knowledge is power In order to negotiate the terms of the right safe sex for you, it is important to educate yourself. Planned Parenthood offers a comprehensive breakdown that might help dispel myths or stigmas that exist around different STIs. Risk tolerance may sound counteractive to those of you who received a traditional sex education, but it’s realistic. An individual might be comfortable having sex with someone with herpes — this is an example of “risk tolerance.” A situation like this might arise when both parties are comfortable because of an agreed upon use of barriers, or perhaps both individuals having the same strain of the herpes virus. Not everyone would be okay with this, but as Marks said, safe sex is negotiated by those involved.

Testing and screening A lot of people assume that participating in STI screening or testing means that you have to be symptomatic; even if you are not showing symptoms, you can and should get tested.

How often and what you test for is an individual choice based on you and your relationships. People with prostates or penises often don’t show a lot of symptoms like people with vaginas or vulvas might because vulvas have more exposed mucous membranes. is is the skin around the opening of the vagina. It’s similar to the skin in the mouth.

Marks said that ideally, you should be tested between new partners, or perhaps more regularly, if you’re dating a lot of people. You can refer to the University of Oregon Health Center’s STI Screening Timetable for help with timing when you should be tested if you are specifically concerned with exposure.

Certain STIs need a little more time than others to show up in a screening.

It’s not always as simple as just showing up and getting tested though. It’s important to be able to communicate results — a major source of anxiety especially if positive-testing results come in.

Communication is sexy It’s really easy to get wrapped up in the moment and get wrapped up in somebody else before you’ve communicated your boundaries or that you have an STI. Sometimes, fear of rejection or judgement prevents honesty upfront.

“We tell ourselves, ‘People don’t fall in love with infections, they fall in love with people,’” said Marks.

But that’s not always true. In fact, Marks argues that many of us worry about communicating imperfect sexual health so much that we neglect thinking about what happens when we don’t communicate it at all.

Considering the power of our words and how they connect us to others, we should regard communication as one of our most important tools for sexual wellbeing.

Sobriety and sexual health Being aware of your body is a big responsibility; it is an important aspect of having safer sex, but also of being a better lover. is awareness includes forwardthinking as a part of being proactive with your health.

“Alcohol often doesn’t lead to good sex. It’s usually sloppier, often doesn’t lead to orgasms for any party, and really, it’s hard to give or get genuine consent,” said Marks. “If you can’t feel all the pain, you’re probably not feeling all the pleasure either.”

However, Marks understands that UO is a college campus. Nightlife and drinking are pervasive parts of college culture, so you should be prepared. e most ideal option would be negotiating and preparing boundaries while sober. Marks said that one method of preparation might be inserting a female or internal condom before going out. ese are available at the UO Health Center and can be kept inside you for up to six hours.

Stashing condoms and dental dams around your house, bag or backpack is another smart move. In a pinch, Marks said you can use Saran Wrap as an

alternative to a dental dam. Something to keep in mind, however, is that all of this preparation requires you to be knowledgeable — or sober — enough to be able to use them.

Lube and protective barriers Using lube is actually really important for sexual health, not just pleasure — especially if you use condoms, sex toys or have any sensitivities. But with so many options — water-based, oil-based, siliconebased or hybrid lubes — what is right for you can only really be determined by you and your sexual partner based on your activities together. Youtube sex educator Erika Lynae created a quick and simple lube compatibility cheat sheet to help you decide which you prefer.

Consider what might cause a yeast infection or work well with toys and latex barriers. Small packets of lube, dental dams, finger cots and condoms are all available in the UO Health Center. Take advantage of using sample lubes until you find out which one works best for you and use this guide from the UO health center to choose the proper barriers.

“You can put a tiny bit of lube in the condom which helps transfer warmth and sensation through the condom, but don’t put so much that it comes off,” said Marks. For performing oral with dental dams or condoms, she advises using lube between the barrier and the recipient to help increase sensation.

Not wellness without pleasure Just like with good sex, you have to learn how to practice safer sex. A lot of these tips — like using lube, getting tested, thinking about drinking and more — are actually oriented toward finding a way for you to experience the pleasure that you want. It’s unlikely that you’re having the best sex that you can if you’re also experiencing pain, STI symptoms or can’t communicate with your partner.

Depending on what kind of pleasure you want and how you seek it, there may be certain safe sex practices that are perfect right for you. (Dana Sparks)

THE FUTURE OF THE KALAPUYA STORY

BY DONNY MORRISON

Esther Stutzman, of the Kalapuya tribe, knows there are certain stories that can’t be shared with just anyone. ese stories were passed down from the women in her tribe and held closely for hundreds of years.

Stutzman won’t speak them over the phone. ey aren’t to be written down or recorded. Some are performed in nature and recited to small gatherings.

Some she tells to students in classrooms or at high school assemblies.

Some aren’t told at all. ey’re considered private property — one of the only treasures colonizers couldn’t take from the Kalapuya.

“I’m not just telling a history,” Stutzman said, “but a reinforcement of the morals of our society.

A few Kalapuya members are working to retain their culture and history that was nearly lost during the Native American genocide in North America.

Stutzman, University of Oregon professor and anthropologist David Lewis and Grand Ronde historic preservation officer David Harrelson are trying to protect their heritage. While they all approach cultural preservation from a different angle, their mission statement is united: to ensure that the Kalapuya way of life is remembered in an accessible and thoughtful way.

Storytelling has long been used as an oral

history of indigenous cultures. ese stories are often all that’s left of civilizations that have slowly disappeared and been forgotten. Topics range from the creation of life on earth to interpretations of the way animals act and feel. ey are windows into the origins of cultural traditions.

“Every story has a lesson or multiple lessons,” Stutzman said. “It’s a way of passing along these messages without preaching or pointing a finger.”

Stutzman is the chair of a nonprofit Kalapuya organization dedicated to research of Kalapuya culture. Living in Yoncalla, Oregon, 45 minutes east of Eugene, she lives on former Kalapuya land. e Kalapuya used to occupy over a million acres across Oregon, according to Lewis, and the UO campus now takes up roughly 295 acres of that territory. According to Lewis’ forthcoming book “Tribal Histories of the Willamette Valley,” the recent loss of Kalapuya land and their decline begins around 200 years ago.

In 1829, the Kalapuya population began to drastically decline. Within a few years, a malaria epidemic caused a large death toll, and U.S. colonizers as well as warring tribes such as the Klickitat entered into Kalapuya territory, taking land and resources. By 1850, the Kalapuya population had fallen from 20,000 to only 1,000.

Between 1851 and 1887, the Kalapuya signed numerous treaties with the U.S. that aimed to take land from indigenous people. In the end, they had been forced to give up a million acres of land. What had once been 19 large tribes diminished to 12 small villages, before being moved to temporary reservations and then merging with the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde. e integration between the two tribes became significant to the genealogical heritage of the Grand Ronde Tribe. Despite the integration, retaining the Kalapuya history within the tribe is important for many.

Nearly four years ago, Harrelson became the department manager and tribal historic preservation officer for the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde. Harrelson is concerned with both cultural and historic preservation of the many tribes, Kalapuya included, who have merged with the Grand Ronde since wide-scale colonization.

He offers classes and support to tribal families in regards to preserving their customs and practices.

He also helps run the museum that continues to tell the history of Oregon’s indigenous peoples.

“It’s the persistence of our people,” Harrelson said. “All the work that we do is so that in seven generations, our children are still connected to who we are as a people.”

As a testament to the difficulty and complexity of piecing together Kalapuya history, David Lewis has spent 20 years traveling across the U.S. to find scattered fragments of their recorded history. He scours university archives and historical society

repositories for any shred of data relating to the Kalapuya and Oregon’s indigenous past.

“You can find stuff about the Kalapuya in Berkeley and Seattle,” Lewis said. “ ere’s information in Washington D.C. and even as far as Yale.”

He’s combed through Department of War collections and sifted through old art materials. He’s read and scanned historical and journalistic accounts for the sole purpose of creating a single archive for Kalapuya history.

After collecting his findings, he uploads it to his blog. It’s an attempt to provide the Kalapuya multiple, cohesive perspectives on a cultural history that spans 14,000 years.

Lewis, who’s a descendant of the Santiam Kalapuya of Western Oregon, and former manager of the Grand Ronde Cultural Resources Department, understands the struggles of attempting to tell the convoluted history of the Kalapuya. “ ere’s so many errors and mistakes that cause a misrepresentation of tribal life,” said Lewis, “because people weren’t going back and checking the sources and trying to make the history better and more clear.”

With historical data scattered across the U.S., Lewis believes he’ll likely be doing this for the rest of his life. Being able to accurately depict tribal history is paramount to the long-lasting cultural and historical traditions of the Kalapuya, says Lewis.

“So much of history is written by non-native people,” said Lewis. “I have a responsibility to get it right as much as possible. I’m getting the information out in a public forum so that everybody has access to it. ere needs to be accurate sources that we can use to teach kids and other people about the history.”

Because of the possibility of error in the rewritten histories, misrepresented by outsiders, original stories are valuable windows into Kalapuya traditions.

Stutzman, an enrolled member of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz, is a descendent of the Coos and Komemma Kalapuya indigenous peoples. She currently travels around the state telling stories that give an overview of Kalapuya culture, bringing along family heirlooms and drum sets as visual illustrations.

Stutzman’s grandmother told her that it was bad luck to share certain stories with outsiders. But with a hope to preserve Kalapuya culture and let it flourish again, she has 13 stories that she shares with the general public — offering a direct view from a Kalapuya member into her culture. ese stories are usually told with a number of

performative elements. ere’s drums, dance, props and tools to help re-enact past storytelling traditions.

“I want to make sure to preserve the stories that were passed down to me from the women elders in my tribe,” Stutzman said. “In order to understand, there is a certain way they should be experienced.”

But not much is known about the dances and music of the Kalapuya.

Stutzman is the chair of a nonprofit organization dedicated to researching Kalapuya culture. e Komemma Cultural Protection Association has dedicated a large portion of the research to Kalapuya dances.

Other work is being done to preserve other aspects of Kalapuya heritage, adapting technology to reach a younger generation.

Harrelson knows that the way we tell stories and convey meaning is ever-changing. While the centuries-old methods of indigenous storytelling don’t always translate into a digital medium, Harrelson seeks to help the tribes adapt and grow with digital media.

“We need to indigenize technology, not allow technology to take us over as a culture,” Harrelson said. “So how do you apply cultural teachings, values, knowledge and information into a way that uses technology to our benefit?”

One of the first projects that sought to overcome this technological barrier was the Chinuk Wawa language app.

Designed and created by the Grand Ronde Tribe, the app offered language lessons for English speakers to learn the dialect of the tribe. e app also includes basic tribal history, historical photos and songs and stories about the Chinuk Wawa.

“We’ve realized that there are people that want to talk about this subject,” Harrelson said. “ ey want to know the old stories and to talk about the customs and traditions that relate to the tribes. It’s about finding ways to make information that was probably extracted by an anthropologist like Lewis more accessible.” ese three Kalapuya guardians, Stutzman, Lewis and Harrelson are not alone in their work, but the task they face is a lifelong pursuit. Unlike some cultures that already have anthologies, libraries and university majors dedicated to their study, Kalapuya culture doesn’t have the same recorded history. But the work being done can change that for future generations. “ e Kalapuya people have always been here and will always be here,” Harrelson said. “We’re just trying to translate what the current world around us means in relation to the teachings of our ancestors.”

OPINION

BY JOSEPH CAPPELLETTI • TWITTER @CAPPELLETTI7

(Courtesy of the Recording Academy/Getty Images)

THE GRAMMYS AWARD ARTISTS FOR WHITENESS AND CONFORMITY Soon after the 2018 Grammys, my father sent me an email whose subject was “Dinosaurs & SZA.” I would soon discover that the dinosaur referred to Elton John, who had recently announced his final tour: e insane price tag, hundreds of dollars just to get in the building, thousands for a seat that will give you a glimpse of the old fart. You pay to see a dinosaur. He’s a legend for sure but he’s not influencing music, the scene, let alone culture the way your artists are. What we pay to see someone who’s made history versus one who’s making it. I want to live in the moment; I want to live in the day.

I’m listening to Sza today. is email from my 52-year-old father opened my eyes to the fact that while artists such as SZA may seem like a household name to younger generations, many adults only become aware of artists if they are nominated for Grammys. For better or worse, the Grammys inform many fans on whom they are supposed to like and listen to. New artists in their prime have one chance to burst onto the scene of superstardom:

e Grammys.

In 2016, Grammy-nominated albums saw a sale increase of 54.8 percent and nominated songs saw an increase of 130.4 percent. After Adele’s album “25” won album of the year in 2017, it catapulted to No. 6 on the Billboard 200, with an overall sales increase of 238 percent. e Grammys continue to be a way for artists to gain exposure, with over 26 million people watching the 2017 Grammys. Beyond just a sales spike, winning an award means that “Grammy-winning” will come before the artist’s name for the rest of their life. And with this extraordinary influence comes great responsibility.

But year after year, the Grammys award ceremony demonstrates why it is a platform for self-interested executives and voters to award artists who are inoffensive, popular, and more often than not, white.

A look at hip-hop’s relationship with the Grammys tells you everything you need to know.

Kendrick Lamar has released three of the greatest albums of our generation and has never won a Grammy for album of the year. He has lost to pop

artists Daft Punk, Taylor Swift and Bruno Mars. Lamar’s album DAMN. won a Pulitzer Prize, but still didn’t win album of the year. His albums— and hip-hop albums in general— about race, politics and culture continuously lose to pop albums that will make you dance rather than think. In 2013, the Grammys finally decided to give hip-hop a nod — by awarding the white rapper Macklemore. After Macklemore beat Lamar for Best New Artist, he shared a photo of a text he sent Lamar: “You got robbed. I wanted you to win. You should have.”

While Beyoncé, Prince, Mariah Carey, Kanye West and Kendrick Lamar have never won Album of the Year, Taylor Swift has won twice.

Only 10 black artists, and none since 2008, have ever won the award since it first began in 1959. Of the seven times a white artist has been nominated for Best Rap Album, only once did the white artist not win. Call it blatant racism, ineptness or selfserving, but the Grammys are failing on an extraordinary level to address the continuous accomplishments of artists that are leading rather

than following.

Many artists have protested and criticized the Grammys as well.

During Eddie Vedder’s infamous Grammy speech he said, “I have no idea what this means. I don’t think this means anything.” During the song Apeshit, which is a part of JAY-Z and Beyoncé’s joint album Everything is Love, JAY-Z raps, “Tell the Grammys f*ck that 0-8 sh*t,” which was in reference to JAY-Z not winning a single award at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards, despite his eight nominations.

While the results on February 10th at the 61st Grammys shouldn’t matter, there is no disputing that “music’s biggest night” continues to affect artists and their listeners. e highest-paid musicians of 2018 were U2, Garth Brooks and Metallica because institutions like the Recording Academy (the organization behind the Grammys) continue to recognize artists based on their gender, race, and popularity rather than the quality of their content. It’s time we all expect more from the Grammys, and if they can’t deliver, stop listening.

UFC, ESPN COULD’VE HAD A

SIMPLE SOLUTION TO A COMPLEX PROBLEM

BY GABRIEL ORNELAS If you were Dana White, president of the UFC, putting Greg Hardy, who was found guilty of assaulting his then-girlfriend, on the same fight lineup as Rachael Ostovich, a domestic violence survivor, would be incredibly tone-deaf. But to the dismay of fans and critics alike, White upheld his decision to keep Hardy on the lineup.

Let me offer Dana White and the UFC a simple solution.

Starting on Feb. 2, the UFC has nine straight weeks of fights that offer at least 12 fights per card. at offered the UFC 108 chances to put Hardy on a separate card from Ostovich. Not only that, but they had 49 scheduled cards for 2019, all the more opportunity for them to have put Hardy somewhere else.

Apparently, White and the UFC felt bringing in more viewers was more valuable than upholding the morality of the organization.

As UFC Fight Night 143 debuted on ESPN for the first time at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, so did Greg Hardy. Hardy is a former defensive end in the NFL for the Carolina Panthers and Dallas Cowboys. He found his way into the UFC through “Dana White’s Tuesday

ere is controversy regarding UFC President Dana White’s decision to place former NFL player Greg Hardy, who was found guilty of domestic violence, on the same fight lineup as Rachael Ostovich, a domestic violence survivor. (Creative Commons)

Night Contender Series.”

Hardy not only premiered for the first time, but was also the co-main event of the night, which is normally reserved for highly talented contenders or fighters who bring in more viewers. Hardy’s first UFC walkout was drowned out by all the boos from the audience.

After an atrocious round-and-a-half of a fight, it ended in a DQ. Hardy blasted his opponent, Allen Crowder, with an illegal knee to the face and ended the fight. is DQ supports the notion that Hardy doesn’t belong in the UFC, especially as a co-main event fighter.

Despite all of the backlash and many calling for Hardy to be barred from fighting again, White, the only man who has a real say, continued to back Hardy.

White came out for the post-fight press conference and expressed his opinion: “One thing I did learn about Hardy tonight is that he can fight. He can fight; he’s an athlete,” White said.

“He’ll get another fight.”

Regardless of whether or not Hardy can possibly fight again, White and the UFC should have moved him to a different card than

Ostovich, who was a victim of domestic violence on Nov. 18. Ostovich was originally taken off the card due to a broken orbital bone and other injuries, but she told KHON2 in Hawaii that she needed to do this. “I felt that it was extremely important to me to follow through with it and not only for me, but for my daughter and other people that might be going through similar situations,” Ostovich said.

Despite this tone-deaf decision by the UFC, Ostovich sought out Hardy to talk and address the situation that was surrounding them.

“I felt it was important for me to reach out to him,” Ostovich told ESPN. “I basically told him, ‘Hey, I have no negative feelings towards you. I hope that we can use both our situations, you on your side and me on my side, and work together and show everybody can come back and take a negative situation and turn it around for a positive one.” e UFC, instead of putting her in an uncomfortable situation, should turn Ostovich’s situation into a platform for victims of domestic violence because her fight is bigger than the one inside the octagon.

OREGON BOUNCES BACK WITH 78-58 WIN OVER WASHINGTON STATE

BY AUGUST HOWELL • TWITTER @HOWELL_AUGUST

After a tough loss to Washington last ursday, Kenny Wooten had a long conversation with NBA Champion and ESPN color commentator Bill Walton.

“He was just talking to me about how I was one of the greatest athletes he’s seen, and how I wasn’t making the most of my opportunities on offense,” Wooten said. “So I decided to watch a little bit of him, and I started watching a lot of post work, stuff that he told me to look up.” e advice paid off for Wooten, who tied his career high with 20 points, shooting 8-10 for the game coming off the bench. His performance helped Oregon (12-8, 3-4) expose Washington State’s (8-12, 1-6) defense, the worst in the Pac-12 in terms of points per game, which led to a 78-58 Oregon win.

However, Washington State played some of its most efficient basketball of the season in the first half. Both teams started the game hot, combining for 9-11 shooting, and Oregon drained three 3-pointers in the first five minutes. But Washington State kept up the pace while Oregon could not. e Cougars finished the first half in 77 percent shooting, going 17-22, and held Oregon to only four points off Washington State’s seven turnovers.

But the second half told a different story. e Cougars shot 33 percent, largely due to the defense of Oregon’s two best players, Robert Franks and CJ. Elleby, who were 11-13 in the first

half but just 3-12 in the second.

“We weren’t surprised that they could score,” head coach Dana Altman said. “Our communication was bad in transition, on switches. Our activity and deflection numbers were way down.”

Oregon sealed the win by forcing Washington State into contested threes, and scoring in transition. Fueled by Pritchard’s career-high six steals, and Louis King tying his career high 22 points, the Ducks went on a 16-2 run over six minutes, scoring with multiple 3-pointers and layups in transition.

In the first half, the Ducks had trouble keeping players out of the paint. e Cougars took advantage of lax defense to find cutting players. Elleby notched 15 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, and at times Oregon had no answer for both him and Franks (19 points).

Oregon’s offense stalled at the end of the first half, going scoreless for nearly four minutes, while Washington State went on a 6-0 run, and took a 39-35 lead into halftime.

Wooten and King were effective because of the court vision by Pritchard and Will Richardson, who combined for 14 assists and no turnovers. “ at’s what we’ve been needing lately, and I think they handled the ball well and made plays for others,” guard Ehab Amin said. “ ey shot extremely well, so that opens up the floor for Kenny inside.”

Oregon will travel to Salt Lake City to take on the Utah Utes this ursday.
