The best DucksThe Student Alumni Association creates passionate and devoted Ducks who are committed to the UO for their entire lives. Were here to build the best Ducks possible, enhancing your college experience with great member rewards (such as a free t-shirt before all of our Pac-12 home football game pretty cool, right?), and connections with other students and alumni. Were affiliated with the UO Alumni Association, through which you can network with more than 198,000 alumni and gain access to some awesome Alumni Association rewards.

The Student Alumni Association is an opportunity, said Ayasha Thurman, UO senior and director of membership and senior experience for the SAA, who joined as a junior for the leadership opportunities and resume building experiences the SAA could offer her. It gives students the freedom to decide how connected they want to be to their university and how much they want to get out of their time as students before transitioning into alumni. We are here for students on a peer-to-peer basis to help them access a community unlike any other on campus.

Become a memberMembership in the SAA gets you access to great member rewards and more. The one-time $70 fee for freshmen will give you SAA membership until grad-uation, and it all goes straight back into funding the awesome events and opportunities the SAA provides. Want to know more about becoming a member? Email our membership team at [email protected], or visit uolumni.com/saa-join.

Member eventsIn addition to the member rewards, we also host sev-eral member events every term. These inculde Beat Tee handouts; getting inside access to the Moshofsky Center the night before home football games to help the athletics department set up for its tailgate the following day; and alumni connection events such as Alumni Speed Networking (think speed dating, but with your resume and the UOAAs Board of Direc-tors) and the Duck Career Networks Virtual Happy hours, which allow you to connect with students and alumni with similar career interests all via text chat-ting. We host great spring break opportunities that allow you to visit alumni in Seattle and San Francisco, and also sponsor an award with the Emerald Media Group that recognizes 25 outstanding Ducks who will change the world each year. Who knows, maybe youll be one of them! You can find out all about our events on our website at uoalumni.com/saa-events, or by following us on social media.

Get involvedOnce you join, you can choose how involved you want to be. If you want to start out by just checking out our events and picking up your Beat Tee, thats fine. As you find yourself wanting to get more in-volved, we have a variety of volunteer opportunities available to you, from helping with events to folding Beat Tees before our handouts (which is a great way to get your Beat Tee earlyand get some free pizza too!). To learn more about our volunteer opportu-nities, contact our volunteer coordination team at [email protected].

We also have great opportunities in our intern program and leadership team, if you want to really gain some experience and get the most out of your SAA membership. These students plan everything for the SAA and make our events happen. We have positions in marketing and media production, alumni relations, membership recruitment, philanthropy and community service, and volunteer coordination. Our leadership positions offer a great way to get involved on campus while gaining real-world experience to enhance your resume. If youre interested in being in-volved with our internship and leadership programs, email us at [email protected] to let us know what youre interested in and well get back to you on how you can be involved!

I like being a part of the SAA because it brings a uni-versity, its students, and a community together, said Claire Pascual, a UO junior who joined as a freshmen at IntroDUCKtion and is the director of philanthropy and advocacy for the SAA. Its one of the best and easiest ways for students to have school spirit, learn to network, and all around be better Ducks.

The SAA is a great way to get involved at the UO, meet new people and make connections, gain some great experience to help you in the job search after graduation, network with successful alumni, and begin your journey as a Duck for life.

Since 1776, Greek-letter organizations have been an integral part of campus life at colleges and universities across the nation. Founded under the principles of scholarship, leadership, community service and the development of life-long relationships, members today still practice these fundamental principles in their pursuit of collegiate excellence.

The mission of the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life is to enhance the quality of student life at the University of Oregon by empowering members of the Greek community through advising with a developmental approach, educating with a purpose, collaborating with stakeholders, promoting academic success, encouraging civic responsibility, advocating for healthy lifestyles, creating lifelong connections, and advancing values-based leadership and decision making.

The fraternity and sorority community at the University of Oregon can trace its roots to 1900. Today, there are over 30 recognized fraternities and sororities at UO, some having over a century of history here on campus. This is a proud heritage that students can become part of by becoming a member.

Although fraternities and sororities are student organizations, they are different from other clubs available to students at the University of Oregon. Becoming a member of a Greek-Letter organization is a lifelong commitment that only begins in college. When students join a recognized fraternity or sorority, they join an organization that creates a bond that will unite them with their brothers or sisters on campus and throughout the United States.

The organizations select their new members and provide them with information about the organization so they fully understand and appreciate what it means to be a member. Once the new member education period is completed, the student becomes a full-fledged member of the chapter. Registration is required for fall fraternity and sorority recruitment on the FSL website. The primary registration deadline is August 7, 2015.

The new member process is governed by each organizations inter/national policies and will typically last between 6-10 weeks. There are chapters that do conduct quarter long new member processes. At the completion of the new member process, you participate in Initiation, a ritual also set forth by the inter/national organization. Once you have become initiated, you will become a full, active member of your fraternity or sorority.

Like many opportunities for involvement in college, there is a financial commitment associated with joining a sorority or fraternity. These costs go toward inter/national fees, chapter operating expenses, philanthropy events, social functions, lodge expenses, and much more. Financial obligations differ among individual fraternities and sororities. Potential members should ask each fraternity or sorority about these financial obligations. In some cases financial aid and scholarships may apply to membership and housing costs.

New members can expect to pay higher dues their first semester due to the one-time new member fees. New member dues can range between $125-$1300 per quarter and active member dues (including room and board) range from $2500-3200 per quarter. Some organizations will offer payment plans, but this is dictated by the inter/national organizations policies. There are additional expenses that members might incur such as purchasing sorority t-shirts or memorabilia, fees for additional events, fees to bring guests to events, etc.

Membership in a fraternity or sorority can be a great way to become involved in the rich traditions at UO and create life-long friendships. Please look through the information on our website (fsl.uoregon.edu), as it may answer some questions that you have. If you still have any questions, feel free to contact our staff. We are more than happy to address any questions or concerns you may have. We can be reached at (541) 346-1149 or [email protected]. We are here to help our students have a great UO experience!

GREEK

LIFE

F raternities and sororities are value-based organizations that focus on the development of leadership, scholarship, brotherhood and sisterhood, service, and community among their members. These values form the basis of members college experience.

The fraternity and sorority community has existed at the University of Oregon since 1900 when the first fraternity, Sigma Nu, was established on campus. The rich tradition of excellence continues today with over 3,700 students involved in over 30 fraternities and sororities. The rich history of fraternity and sorority life is continued every day as students continue the legacies of those before them and leave legacies of their own.

Being a part of the fraternity and sorority community means holding yourself to a higher standard of commitment, service, and accountability. It means being a part of a community based on shared values that works to support its members to be the best version of themselves and positively contribute to our community. It means being a part of a legacy that continues through your personal growth and involvement in our community.

Although fraternities and sororities are student organizations, they are very different from other clubs that are available to students at the University of Oregon. Becoming a member of a Greek-Letter organization is a lifelong commitment that only begins in college. When students join a recognized fraternity or sorority, they join an organization that creates a bond that will unite them with their brothers or sisters on campus and throughout the United States, in common bonds and mutual beliefs.

OR IN THE FUTURE, HERE ARE GOOD THINGS

TO THINK ABOUT WHEN EVALUATING

INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

What Will I Learn?Internships are supposed to be an educational experience. This is especially the case for unpaid internships. One of the Department of Labors 6 Criteria for determining if an unpaid opportunity can be considered an internship is that the internship experience is for the benefit of the intern.

Questions to ask:

>> What will I be learning?

>> Will I gain skills and experience in a job, industry, or career which Im interested in working in after graduation?

>> How does this internship fit into my career plans?

What Will I Do?An internship ideally should be a structured experience with training, supervision, and a clear project and expectations. This is a fine line: you dont want to be just doing low-level administrative tasks like the stereotypical getting coffee, but you also shouldnt be doing the same work as a paid employee with the same level of responsibilities and potentially without the compensation.

Questions to ask:

>> What will be my primary responsibilities?

>> How is my time divided up among different tasks? (If your primary responsibilities are answering the phone and prepar-ing PowerPoint presentations rather than attending client meetings, this might not be an internship)

>> How will I be trained?

>> Who will supervise me? What does that look like?

What does the industry expect?Internships also vary by industry. The accounting internship for a small non-profit may look very different from the accounting internship at a large accounting firm. You can do research by asking other students in your major who may have done internships, reading reviews of organizations programs on sites like Glassdoor, or asking employees who work in specific organizations or industries.

Questions to ask:

>> What does a typical internship look like for this industry?

>> How many hours per week are interns expected to work at their internship sites?

>> How much responsibility will I take on?

>> Is there room for advancement?

CompensationIs this a paid opportunity? Is it unpaid? Are you earning a stipend or a bonus based on your performance? These considerations influence how an employer can categorize the opportunityinternship, paid job, or volunteer opportunity.

Questions to ask:

>> Will I be paid?

>> Is my pay based on my performance?

>> If this is not a paid internship, are there other forms of com-pensation?

>> Do I need to earn credit?

Some employers require that students be enrolled for academic credit in order to be eligible for an internship. In other cases, students want to earn academic credit for the work they are do-ing in their internships. Remember that when earning academic credit, you will be paying tuition for the credits, so think carefully about whether or not you need

or want to earn it. Academic departments have different require-ments and standards that internships must meet before they will award departmental credit for an internship. Contact

your major department to learn more about requirements. Also check out the Career Centers GoIntern! Program for more infor-mation about earning academic credit for

an internship.

EMPLOYER AND INTERN: ONE STORYTWO PERSPECTIVES

EMPLOYER: JESSICA ROSE EBERT | TARGET INTERN: WHITAKER SHERK

What did the intern do well?Whitaker was an exemplary intern; she drove results in her building with both team and sales. As an HR intern, Whitaker had the opportunity to understand the impact of an Executive Team Leader (ETL) Human Resources. Target likes to think of our internship as more of a leadership internship rather than a management internship.

Whitaker had the opportunity to participate in all aspects of the Executive Team Leader role. Additionally, outside of the four walls of her store location, Whitaker participated in team builds and volunteer events, including Habitat for Humanity.

What are the benefits of the internship (long and short term)?The internship is a 10-week summer program designed to enhance a students leadership abilities. Ideally, our internship candidates become our future talent pipeline. In Whitakers case she was offered a full-time opportunity to return to the Target team as an ETL upon her graduation.

Whitaker requested to be transferred to a location in the Bay Area and since Summer of 2014 has been the ETL HR for a store in Northern California.

What advice do you have for students looking for an internship?My advice is to do your research, think about the things that you value and expect from a company, and ensure that the internship program you are accepting an opportunity with meets those. If you attend your career fair, know which companies offer internship opportunities, and ask insightful questions! Recruiters are there to help you and get to know you better!

What did you enjoy about the internship/ what went well?The most amazing part about being an intern at Target is how truly real the internship is... for example, by the end of my internship, I was basically an extra Executive Team Leader at the store in which I was working. All of the team members and team leaders treated me as if I was an executive the entire time that I worked there. They were open to my ideas, and they were willing to go out of their way to help me become as successful as possible.

Another thing that I loved about the internship was all of the possibilities that it gives you to succeed. You are given opportunities to attend several Target events, to volunteer with other interns and coworkers, and Target even offers a website in which as an intern, you have a option to submit a blog post describing your experience.

What are the benefits of doing an internship?The main benefit of doing the Target internship is the knowledge that you acquire throughout the ten weeks about how to be a great leader. You have the opportunity to work with a real team of people, and in doing so, you grow and develop considerably. When job searching, one of the main things that employers are looking for is experience. Having an entire summer of managerial experience is a fantastic way to boost your resume.

What advice do you have for students looking at this internship program?First piece of advice: apply. It is an absolutely incredible experience. Second piece of advice: If you end up having the opportunity to work for Target as an intern, take every chance to learn as much as you possibly can. Stay openminded, be adaptable, and you will be successful.


VERY FEW PEOPLE WILL ARGUE THE BENEFITS OF AN INTERNSHIP (SPECIFICALLY US, WE HEART INTERNSHIPS!), BUT THERE ARE TWO SIDES TO EVERY STORY. TWO UO ALUMNI PARTICIPATED IN SUMMER INTERNSHIPS WHILE THEY WERE STUDENTS, ONE AT TARGET AND ONE AT FRED MEYER. READ THEIR PERSPECTIVES ON THE INTERNSHIP AND THEN SEE WHAT THEIR BOSSES HAD TO SAY!

EMPLOYER: BEN O. LYSEN | FRED MEYER INTERN: DAVID MYERS

What did the intern do well?David (Myers) did a great job of working independently and asking the right questions to best understand the issue(s) and address them. He accepted feedback and was always willing to help out any way he could.

What are the benefits of the internship (long and short term)?Due to Davids work, weve been able to make a change in the way we go to market that best highlights some of our most technical active wear product. Weve expanded the door counts or running programs based on Davids recommendations and analysis for Fall 2015. The communication tool David worked on is actually changing the way we buy for future seasons, because we feel we can better communicate the product groups for stores to then execute.

What advice do you have for students looking for an internship?Be relentless in getting assignments even if they arent related to your major project. Meet as many people as you can and work to leave them with a good impression. Strive to be the best of your peers.

What did you enjoy about the internship/what went well?During the course of the internship we were all given projects that would benefit our respective departments. Through the support of our supervisors and fellow coworkers we actually saw our ideas and recommendations being put into action. We also had many opportunities to meet senior executives and other workers from different areas of the company. Some of the greatest lessons I learned from the summer were from meetings and lunches I had with these people. I think the culture of an organization is undervalued in a way these days, but the culture of Fred Meyer definitely stood out to me over the course of the summer. Whether it was company barbecues or vendor meetings, the people within the company were extremely friendly while still maintaining a level of respect that translated from the top executives to even us interns. Last but not least, I made some really good friends with the fellow interns at Fred Meyer.

What are the benefits of doing an internship?Getting real world hands-on experience in the workplace is invaluable. I definitely came back to college with more of a knowledge of what skills I had that would help me in my career and what I still needed to work on. The internship also allows you to expand your personal network. I made great connections throughout the company this summer. An internship also allows a person to see if the career they are looking into is right for them. Fred Meyer emphasized the point that not only did we need to be a good fit for them, but they needed to be a good fit for us in the future. And who knows, an internship might turn into a post-grad job offer.

What advice do you have for students looking at this internship program?This is a great internship to get your feet wet and offers opportunities with many different departments of the organization through meetings and job shadows. I really would recommend this internship to anyone who is looking for relevant real world work and a great overall experience.

Employers are increasingly telling us that they are interested in meeting and talking with students who have experience on their resume. These experiences may be called internships, part-time jobs, or volunteer opportunities, and may be paid, unpaid, or for credit or not. Regardless of what they are called, these experiences all help you apply the knowledge youre gaining in school and life to real-world problems or

issues and can help you try out things which may help you to narrow down your interests.


Working on campus is one of the best ways students can get meaningful profes-sional experience while still a student. Departments across campus hire any-where from 1 to hundreds of students each year, and students can gain skills in a variety of areas such as customer service, event planning, marketing, advising, and more. Finding a job on campus, even as a first year student, should not be intimidat-ingalthough it might take some time and perseverance, student employment opportunities are abundant and available.

Sophomore international student and Emerging Leader, Li Haozhe says, I would tell Freshmen or my peers to find what your strengths are and what skills you want to developfor example English is one of the skills Im working on. Think-ing about your long term career goals and how you want to achieve them is a great first step before finding an on-campus job, and like Haozhe said, think about what skills you could work on during your time on-campus to help get you ready for what you hope to be doing in the future.

Career Center employees agree that students looking for employment during their college years shouldnt be afraid of working on-campus. Junior, Monica Kamin said, its close, its easy to get to. I can work the hours around my class schedule and then leave and be on time. I dont have to pay for parking and people are really friendlythey understand the life of a college student.

Working on campus can also be a great way to make connections, not only with peers but also with professionals. Jobs and internships give students a chance to work with a supervisor who can serve as a professional mentor. Sophomore student employee Rachel Wilson who works alongside Mharie Stevensen at the Career Center front desk says, If you ask her [Stevensen] one question, shell answer fifteen that you didnt even know that you had. Shes also really nice about flexibility with school schedule too, which is very important for me--Ive worked several places off-campus where they havent been very flexible and it made outside life very stressful.

Haozhe describes his relationship with his supervisor saying, shes my mentor for surea great teacher. When I got here,

I didnt know the right way to do things and she taught me a lot. Haozhe who plans on going into education says that working alongside a mentor has been key in developing his long term professional goal. Not only do student employees make connections with their own supervisors, but also with other professionals they may work alongside.

Student-employees at the Career Cen-ter are following very different career paths, ranging from education to law and healthcare. Each student is working on acquiring skills that will help them in their long term career goals. Wilson who works at the Career Center front desk spends the majority of her time communicating with students and employers who have questions. She therefore has had a chance to prepare for going into PR which is very communication oriented, Im looking to work at a PR firm which is entirely about communicationwhether that be through a medium such as social media or physically talking to an employer or client one-on-one. Either way communication skills will definitely come in handy when entering the job force. While Wilson is already working on skills that will directly translate to her long term career goals, other students are taking a more step-by-step route and looking to obtain a variety of skills.

Junior Professional Network Outreach Intern Monica Kamin says, I want to go to law school--Im a junior right now, so this summer Im going to take the LSAT and next yearmy senior year, Im going to be applying to law schools. I think my work at the Career Center will help me, maybe not so much the tangible things that Ive been doing but Ive definitely picked up soft skills that I will be able to utilize in any work space.

For freshmen who may be undecided in terms of their major, developing these so-called soft skills can be very beneficial. Soft skills are transferable skills that can be applied to many different lines of work, they include, communication, problem-solving, assisting, creating etc. Freshman Student Assistant to the Director of Aca-demic Programs Rosabelle Hernandez says, I have no idea what I want to do after I graduate. I feel like just having a job that allows you to develop skills, make con-nections and understand how to become

professional while establishing how to network is a good thing.

Career center employees have said that as freshman there were many misconcep-tions about working on campus that have proven to be untrue. Wilson says, I heard that if you dont apply for a student job well before fall term, then you wont have a job available whatsoever. Which now, I found is completely falsejobs pop up almost every single day, and theres almost a thousand jobs on our websiteso that was a frantic misconception. Her advice to freshman who are looking for on-campus employment, just keep trying. Send as many applications as you need to send. When I was applying, I probably sent ten or fifteen applications out. If you dont get a response, send a follow up e-mail. What makes the biggest impression is going in and introducing yourself. Thats what an employer here said was what gave me my job. I actually went in and introduced myself face-to-faceshe said that was a big factor, and was very professional. So I would definitely recommend doing that.

Career Center student employees recall the anxiety they had as freshmen seeking on-campus employment and not know-ing where to start or what they would be qualified for. But they soon learned college is a time for students to develop skills, and on-campus employers understand that. Senior Multicultural Career Alliance Intern, Alyssa Goessler says, working on campus just really empowers you to still be successful in your academic pursuits while getting some professional experi-ence. Beyond that, its also just funbe-ing on campus you get to be a part of a group of other student leaders and get to network and make connections to find out what other student leaders are doing on campus. You also get to meet a lot of UO professionals who really care about students and want to help them out and see them be successful, not only in their academics but in their careers.

If you are seeking on-campus employment, come to the UO career center and check out the Career Center websiteadvisors can help you update your resume and cover letter and direct you in your job search. Youll be surprised where on-cam-pus employment can take you.

EO/AA/ADA institution committed to cultural diversity.

The fishbowl has long been a favorite study spot and gathering place for students, and now it is home to Starbucks, Chipotle, Joes Burgers, Panda Express, and Subway.

When entering the EMU on the main floor visitors will find several Eugene favorites including Falling Sky Pizzeria and Public House, Townshends Tea, and Red Wagon ice cream. There is also a Fresh Corner Market serving healthful snacks, soups, and salads.

Food and Drink at the Heart of Campus

The EMU was designed for all seasons. The terrace outside the fishbowl and the large front lawn are great places to sit outside and enjoy a cold drink or ice cream on a warm day. Inside there are study nooks, collaboration stations, and dining areas. The buildings design incorporates large windows and skylights, making it a great place to sit on a rainy day with a warm drink, a meal, or even a pint. Whatever the weather, the EMU is a the perfect location to take a break.

The Erb Memorial Union at the heart of campus is the perfect place to grab coffee, a meal, and a snack. You can also enjoy Eugene hometown favorites including local ice cream, tea, and microbrews.

Chipotle offers burritos, tacos, burrito bowls (a burrito without the tortilla), and salads made from fresh, high-quality raw ingredients, prepared using classic cooking methods and served in a distinctive atmosphere.

Joes Burgers serves delicious griddle-style burgers, crisp fries, and hand-spun milkshakes, made with local and all-natural ingredients.

Panda Express defines American Chinese cuisine with bold flavors and fresh ingredients.

Subway is the home of made-to-order sub sandwiches as well as salads and breakfast sandwiches, all made any way you want.

Starbucks are not just passionate purveyors of coffee, but of everything else that goes with a full and rewarding coffeehouse experience. They also offer a selection of premium teas, fine pastries and other delectable treats to please the taste buds.

Falling Sky Pizzeria & Public House is the newest member of a locally owned restaurant group, dedicated to using only the best local and seasonal ingredients. They make, bake, brew, and cure everything in-house.

Townshends Tea Company brings together a casual college campus-style coffeehouse atmosphere with top-grade loose-leaf tea. The EMU tea bar will feature bubble tea, Brew Dr. Kombucha on tap, and chai made from scratch.

Red Wagon Creamery makes handcrafted, small-batch ice cream from real, honest ingredients in Oregon's smallest dairy plant. The full, deep flavor of the ice cream comes from a house-made base they pasteurize themselves. Using fresh, local, hormone-free milk and cream gives the ice cream a robust flavor.

Fresh! Corner Market is the place to grab healthful local and organic snacks including fresh fruit, gourmet soups, or build a custom salad.

THE 18401840 AGATE ST.

I am staring at a computer screen, clutching my stomach. My heart is pounding, my eyes are watering from laughing, and I am pretty sure the rest of the moisture in my entire body has just relocated to my palms. The gentleman on the other line continues. Dont eat a puppy and dont pet a pizza. Figure out what you are good for and go right to it. The man is a longtime alumnus of the University of Oregon, who quit his job as a professional writer to tell stories for sandwiches. For me, he is just one of the thousands of colorful people I have spo-ken to as a student fundraiser at the University of Oregons Annual Giving Program.

Located deep in the EMU basement, below the rubble of new construction and the frantic scramble of daily college life, is the home of the Annual Giving Program (AGP) Telefund. The AGP Telefund is run by UO students who contact alumni, parents, and other supporters of the UO. During the calls, students share ex-citing updates and other meaningful informa-tion about the university, while simultaneously fundraising over half a million dollars each year for UO academic programs.

These calls are not only beneficial to the uni-versity, but to the student fundraisers them-selves. The experience of being a student fund-raiser looks great on a resume. Student callers like me are able to expand their skill-set by gaining experience working with an integrated calling system. Along with this, supervisors are also students, so there is plenty of room to move up the ladder.

Graduating senior Alex Duffant acknowledges the AGP Telefund taught him many skills [he] will be taking into the workforce. Moreover, the hours are incredibly flexible to accom-modate our class schedules and needed study

time. The student supervisors are super understanding and will work around your busy schedule to find shifts that work for you. Duffant also enjoys the social aspect of the AGP. You sit next to two new people every day, so youre almost forced to make friends, he says. I love working there. My whole job is to talk to new people; what could be better?

While there are rich benefits for student callers, the real impact that the AGP Telefund makes is on the university itself.

People dont realize that as a public school, the University of Oregon gets less than six percent of its funding from the government, says Tyler Sperling, a recently hired student fundraiser. In fact, more than half of the UOs funding comes from private support. That is why this job is so important, Sperling adds. Its not only important, but also necessary. The AGP Telefund raised over $100,000 in the month of May just for the UO Library Fund. Sperling ex-plains the money is part of a special campaign to support the eight UO Libraries efforts in providing essential resources for UO students. Our library is archiving millions of resources and putting them online for students for free, he says. This campaign were doing is affecting literally everyone within our student body.

I am staring at my computer screen, clutching my stomach. My heart is pounding, my eyes are watering from laughing and I have never been happier to go to work.

I am staring at a computer screen, clutching my stomach. My heart is pounding, my eyes are watering from laughing, and I am pretty sure the rest of the moisture in my entire body has just relocated to my palms. The gentleman on the other line continues. Dont eat a puppy and dont pet a pizza. Figure out what you are good for and go right to it.
