Come Volunteer at UO's only student-led community garden. Nearly every Sunday from 2-4 pm at the Grove Community Garden (1801 Moss St - a block south of Global Scholars Hall).
Work parties are when we come together to collectively care for the space. We have 22 raised beds that are managed by the overall community to produce food (mainly vegetables) for the student food pantry, the SSC Produce Drop, and of course (and often primarily) those who come each week to volunteer. So, a typical work party may include harvesting food, weeding beds, sowing seeds / transplanting starts, chipping a wood path, etc. There is no signup ahead of time, the only prep beforehand is dressing for the weather / in clothes you don't mind some dirt/sweat on. Sign up for our newsletter for weekly reminders and updates, and follow us on Instagram too!
Feel free to email grovegarden@uoregon.edu with any questions or inquires.

The Women’s Center is beyond excited to invite you to our annual Take Back the Night Rally, March and Speak-Out Against Sexual and Domestic Violence.
Take Back the Night is on Thursday, April 24, starting with the rally at 6:00pm followed by the march at 7:00pm and student-led speak-out at 8pm.
The rally begins in the EMU Amphitheater at 13th Ave. and University St. followed by an approximately 1.6 mile march from the UO campus through the streets of Eugene and back to UO campus in the EMU Cedar and Spruce Rooms where the student-led speak out (by and for students) is held.
The UO Women’s Center holds this event in collaboration with the UO Campus Community (UO Muxeres, UOIWMGW, Prevention SVPE,UO Green and Yellow Garter Band and more).
Community collaborators will be on hand from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm at tables surrounding the rally area.
Take Back the Night Rally, March and Speak-Out Against Sexual and Domestic Violence is an event for the entire University of Oregon campus community. Take Back the Night is a yearly international protest founded in 1976 which seeks to raise awareness about the realities of sexual and domestic violence on campus and in the community, both for survivors of sexual and domestic violence and those who want to support and bear witness in solidarity. Take Back the Night is a survivor-centered event that begins with a rally in the EMU Amphitheater, continues as a march through the streets of Eugene to symbolize reclaiming people’s safety on public streets at night, and ends with a student-led speak-out on campus during which survivors and allies can share personal stories of how sexual and domestic violence has impacted their lives.
The rally will feature UO student speakers from diverse intersecting identities and lived experiences, including the Native American community, Latine community, LGBTQIA2S+ community, a child abuse prevention advocacy organization and more.
Our theme for this year’s event is REST IS RESISTANCE, inspired by the work of Black activist Tricia Hersey. As well, we will continue to center marginalized communities too often left out of essential dialogue about sexual and domestic violence - despite being disproportionately impacted by these systems of oppression. As always, the Women’s Center is committed to providing this essential event to support survivors, educate the community and prevent future harm.
ASL interpretation will be provided at the rally. This event is wheelchair accessible and will have transportation available during the march and back to student-led speak-out. We ask that no UO professional staff or media be present during the student-led speak-out portion of the event to provide a sacred space for students to have dialogue circles of peer-to-peer support.
Event will take place **rain or shine** and is free and open to the public. We support and believe survivors in ALL WEATHER! Masks are not required but highly encouraged. Questions regarding Take Back the Night should be directed to:
UO Women’s Center Program Assistant, Karyn Schultz (karyns@uoregon.edu) UO Women's Center Leadership Fellow, alejandra pedraza (apedraza@uoregon.edu) UO Women’s Center Sexual Violence Prevention & Education Student Coordinator, Lola Sponaas (svpewc@uoregon.edu)

Prepare for a future in today's dynamic business environment—enhance your data analysis and visualization skills with Power BI! In the organizations you will work for, vast amounts of data will be collected every day—your challenge will be to make sense of it.

- Create Data Models – Present your data intuitively and in a visually engaging way, making it easier for your audience to understand complex information.
- Visualize Data – Tell the story of your data in quick, responsive analytics.
- Share Assets – The power of automation ensures that your data reaches the right people at the right time.

How to honor the legacy of a band deemed sacred? To tread on holy ground is perilous, and must be done with the intent and spirit of a disciple—Pay attention to the intricacies of the magic, explore the far ends of the innovation, strive for ever-growing ability, and let the purity of the love for the music drive it all.
Drummer Clementine is the founding member of ZEPPARELLA. From the beginning of her musical career, her goal has been to be onstage every night. The pursuit of that goal has led Clementine to constantly tour the US and Europe in projects as diverse as Bottom, AC/DShe, The House Of More, The Solid, Francis Bakin, Stars Turn Me On and Beaux Cheveux. She tackles the best rock drumming ever written with her own emotionally powerful style, bringing the Motown influence of the Bonham groove to the forefront. The profound musical connection established with Gretchen Menn (guitar), Holly West (bass), and Anna Kristina (vocals) creates the bond required to do this great music justice.
It was under the tutelage of classical guitarist Phillip DeFremery, a student of Andrés Segovia, that guitarist Gretchen Menn began her path on the instrument. Playing with tireless passion and constantly seeking out new challenges, her projects are often unconventional, genre-bending expressions combining elements of classical, rock, progressive, jazz, and metal. On influences, Gretchen has never tired of her initial inspirations—Eric Johnson, Steve Morse, Frank Zappa, and Jeff Beck. But she has loved Jimmy Page’s guitar playing longer than she has played the guitar. It was through the music of Led Zeppelin that she found a gateway into music that resonated deeply with her, creating a love for guitar-oriented music, and, ultimately, the guitar.
Bassist Holly West began her musical journey full-steam ahead, and more recently than her stellar playing belies. Her unstoppable will and drive have truly propelled her to this moment and her place in the powerhouse Zepparella. A self-taught bass player, she is also a blossoming vocalist with rich rock pipes. Her time on stage has been well spent, developing an impressive attack, impeccable feel, and a technique which seems to have come completely naturally to her, not to mention her dazzling stage presence and joyful performance style. Her influences span the rock gauntlet, from Clutch and the Rival Sons to Slash, ZZ Top, and of course, the mighty Zeppelin.
Singer Anna Kristina is a soulful, fiery, and rocking vocal powerhouse who has stepped into Zepparella’s Plant spot for a second time. Anna was with the band for 5 years, became known for her performance in the band’s 15 million-view “When The Levee Breaks” video, took a 6-year hiatus, and now returns in 2018 to front the band. Her career has spanned acoustic, jazz, soul, rock, and her charisma and power delivers captivating performances every night. About her brilliant harp playing she says: “getting a chance to blow on the harmonica is an added bonus! Plant isn’t just a singer he’s a musician. He brings his blues background and natural percussive feel to his harmonica playing as well and I love getting lost in that. Playing the harp allows me to express on a whole different level and it’s so freeing.”
Now more than ever, Zepparella explores their own improvised magic within the framework of Zeppelin’s mighty songs!

Come Volunteer at UO's only student-led community garden. Nearly every Sunday from 2-4 pm at the Grove Community Garden (1801 Moss St - a block south of Global Scholars Hall).
Work parties are when we come together to collectively care for the space. We have 22 raised beds that are managed by the overall community to produce food (mainly vegetables) for the student food pantry, the SSC Produce Drop, and of course (and often primarily) those who come each week to volunteer. So, a typical work party may include harvesting food, weeding beds, sowing seeds / transplanting starts, chipping a wood path, etc. There is no signup ahead of time, the only prep beforehand is dressing for the weather / in clothes you don't mind some dirt/sweat on. Sign up for our newsletter for weekly reminders and updates, and follow us on Instagram too!
Feel free to email grovegarden@uoregon.edu with any questions or inquires.
