stress reduction it’s important to listen to your body because sometimes getting exercise in can be stressful,� Russell said. Maybe you can’t get to the gym every single day, but you can incorporate exercise into your everyday life without much disruption. Try going on a walk to clear your head or doing some simple stretches on your bedroom floor. There are many different ways you can get your body moving without taking too much time out of your day. The social aspect of exercising can also contribute to stress reduction. Even if you’re just meditating in a yoga class, you’re still surrounded by others who are practicing the same mindfulness alongside you. Russell says this can help with stress reduction because you’re all sharing the same experience. Another example of this would be working with a partner while rock climbing or hiking with friends. When it comes to finding what type of exercise helps you to most effectively reduce stress, Russell believes it’s very individualized. Some days you might just need time to stretch and other days may require something more intense, like a kickboxing or martial arts class with physical contact. Russell says that one of the

best things about UO’s Student Recreation Center is that it offers many different ways to get your body moving. It’s helpful to change up your workout routine rather than doing the same exercises on a regular basis. “I highly encourage people to get as much experience doing different physical activities so that they can find different options and find out what works for them,� she said. Russell’s experience in teaching ranges from yoga to CrossFit, and she has seen many students benefit from stress reduction in her P.E. classes. At the end of each term, students complete a class reflection and many of them comment on their lowered stress without being prompted. Finding the time to exercise should be a top priority, especially if you are feeling stressed. When you make time to take care of your body, you may find that many aspects of your life improve. You will feel more focused, refreshed and balanced, and the impact of exercising is much greater than that of coffee or energy bars. Russell recommends adding a P.E. class to your schedule to create the time to care for your body. Even with a busy schedule, you always have time for what you prioritize.

Learning to manage stress is an integral part of student life. When exams, class presentations, homework assignments and job searches take up the bulk of your time, high stress and anxiety levels can become the norm. Physical activity increases the production of endorphins, which in return initiates positive feelings in your mind and body – something many college students could use more of. Chantelle Russell, University of Oregon associate director of physical education, says the impact physical activity can have on stress is huge. Taking care of your body often comes second to getting everything checked off your to-do list and this habit can take its toll on your overall well-being. A common reason students don’t exercise is because it’s difficult to find time in their schedule. “When you feel stressed, one of your top priorities needs to be maintaining some regularity to your healthy behaviors with sleep, nutrition and exercise being the key components,� Russell said. Stress is common for many college students. Read this piece about stress on campus. In order to focus and feel good, your body needs to be taken care of. “When it comes to

Leaving home is a huge transition for many college students. It’s one thing for students to leave behind their mother’s home cooking, the familiarity of their rooms and the comfort of their families. But for others, leaving home means leaving behind part of themselves. At the University of Oregon, ASUO funds multicultural groups in its efforts to host celebrations devoted to showcasing the unique heritage of students from across the globe. Throughout the year, UO students and Eugene citizens gather on campus to celebrate a variety of cultures through events hosted by UO’s international student groups. These culture nights give the people of Eugene a glimpse at the range of minority cultures found in the city and on UO’s campus that are often underrepresented within the larger community. “I think these events, first and foremost, create a space for cultures and the people who identify as part of those cultures that are usually a minority,� A dnacer performs at an Utsav celebration at the University of Oregon in May, 2015.

said Yue “Adam� Shen, a UO student from China. Shen is the ASUO international student advocate. She helps international student groups strengthen their communities and highlight the richness of their cultures within the campus community and Eugene at large. Here at UO, students from over 100 countries, who total 12.7 percent of the student population, are all categorized by the registrar as only “international students.� Cultural nights allow these students and those with deep cultural ties to express their heritage with any of their interested peers. Many student groups such as the Japanese Student Organization (JSO) and the Students of the Indian Subcontinent (SIS) host culturally focused events as opportunities to share their cultural heritage with the Eugene community and stay close to their roots while away from home.

co-presidents of the SIS and first-generation immigrants (children of immigrants to the U.S.), feel it’s important to seek out those cultural ties as part of the UO community. “Being in the United States, we’re a little bit removed from India and that area,� Mankala said. “I really want to stick with my cultural roots. The mission of the club is to spread Indian culture throughout campus and raise awareness of different cultural elements.� Mankala and Senthirajah know first-hand the effort it takes to put together events as co-vice presidents of SIS. The SIS holds three major cultural events throughout the year. They host Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights celebration, during the fall. In winter term they host several Bollywood movie nights to help immerse students in Indian culture. But the group’s largest event takes place during spring term and is called Utsav, which is the Sanskrit word for celebration. “I grew up with [Indian Culture] very much Alex Caves leads Ahira Daiko’s taiko drum performance at the annual Japan Night celebration on on Feb. 19.

St. Patrick’s Day

starter kit ➡ ZACH

PRICE, @ZACH_PRICE24

Wear Don’t be the one person who doesn’t wear any green on St. Patrick’s Day. Whether it’s just a four leaf clover sticker or a full on leprechaun outfit or somewhere in between, find something that will keep pinching fingers away. For those who are looking to really up their St. Patty’s wear and support the Ducks in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, check out the officially licensed Irish themed sports gear at the Duck Store.

History Everyone claims that they’re Irish on St. Patrick’s Day. In fact, there are actually more Irish Americans than actual Irish citizens — a lot more. According to a Census Bureau study, there are 34.7 million Americans who claim to have Irish ancestry. That’s seven times more than the actual population of Ireland, but not everyone has the Celtic knowledge to back it up. Here’s a few facts that will make you seem like a true Irelander, whether or not you actually are. • St. Patrick (385-461) wasn’t actually Irish. The man who is known as the “Apostle of Ireland” was actually born in the U.K. After becoming a Bishop, Patrick popularized Catholicism in the Emerald Isle as a missionary. • St. Patrick is celebrated for ridding Ireland of all snakes, but according to National Geographic, snakes haven’t inhabited Ireland since the last Ice Age 10,000 years ago. The snakes are believed to be a thinly veiled metaphor for pagans. • The holiday is celebrated annually on the anniversary of St. Patrick’s death, March 17. While it’s a national holiday in Ireland and an official feast day for the Catholic Church, countries across the world participate in St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. • The popular shamrock imagery derives from his explanation of the holy trinity to the Irish people using its leaves. Since then, St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated with decorations of shamrocks and the plant’s color.

As winter term’s stress-filled dead week comes to a close, many students are looking for any type of distraction they can to relieve them from their school-induced anxiety. Thankfully, there’s good news. St. Patrick’s day is this Friday. Although there may not be the usual wild party atmosphere you’d expect due to upcoming finals, there’s still plenty of time for celebration. Here’s everything you’ll need to ensure that this year’s St. Patty’s Day is one to remember.

Drink If there’s one thing that the Irish take more seriously than drinking, it’s drinking Guinness on St. Patrick’s Day. What would St Patrick’s Day be without Ireland’s world-famous beer? For over 250 years, this traditional stout has been brewed from slow-roasted hops that give it a smooth, dark flavor. When preparing for the holiday, just be aware that people’s eyes might be bigger than their stomachs when it comes to drinking Guinness. College students often aren’t able to down these dark brews quite as easily as the light beer they’re used to drinking. If the dark tones of Guinness are too much, then try a pint of Murphy’s Irish Stout. It has a light and sweet flavor, but it still packs the same Irish authenticity. Many people want to celebrate the Irish’s tradition of drinking on this holiday but don’t want all the calories that come with drinking beer. Bailey’s Irish Cream and Jameson’s Irish Whiskey are great substitutes. Mix either Bailey’s or Jameson’s with strong coffee and top it with whipped cream to make Irish Coffee. For those who don’t want to spend their Friday sipping on coffee, try taking a shot of an Irish Flag: Just combine Bailey’s with creme de menthe and Licor 43 to form a green-orange-white colored shot. Can’t decide between drinking beer and mixed drinks? No need to decide. Try an Irish Car Bomb. Just drop a shot of Bailey’s and Jameson’s into a pint of Guinness and chug. Most people decide to chug the drink as quickly as possible because the Bailey’s will curdle if left sitting for too long. Be mindful of Irish stereotypes and drink responsibly.

Eat The Irish don’t have the greatest culinary reputation. Their diet is mostly comprised of dishes that feature boiled, baked, mashed and any other possible forms of bland potatoes. Don’t let that keep you from eating well on Friday. There are plenty of tasty Irish recipes that will hit the spot too. For people who are looking to commit to a traditional Irish dinner, corned beef with cabbage is the answer. Nothing is more Irish than this traditional meal. Slowly roast the corned beef in a sea of cabbage and other assorted vegetables for a tender, juicy meal. This Irish soda bread recipe is a great way for people to put something in their stomach before going out for a long night of drinking. It’s quick and easy, but surprisingly full of flavor. Just toss eggs, flour and sugar into a pan then put it in the oven on low heat for an hour and it’ll be ready for consumption. Like chocolate cake? Then finish off the night with a Irish cream chocolate cheesecake that is guaranteed to hit the spot. This recipe is a traditional Irish dessert that combines Bailey’s Irish Cream with a cookie crumb-filled crust to make a rich and filling dessert. (Illustrations courtesy of Creative Commons)

Third Thursdays in spring at 5:30 p.m. Fish Tales: Traditions and Challenges of Seafood in Oregon with Jennifer Burns Bright Oregonians love the wild beauty of our 363 miles of coastline, but finding truly local seafood can be hard, even on the coast. The US imports approximately 90 percent of its seafood and ships out nearly as much to the global market. Why aren’t we eating more local seafood, now that preserving and distribution technologies are the most sophisticated they have ever been? Why do we consider seafood more a delicacy now than it has been in the past? Join Jennifer Burns Bright for an exploration of our relationship with sea foods, and of local traditions around harvesting and consuming the ocean’s bounty.

ingrained in my upbringing. Being away from home when you go to college, you’re not with your parents and family anymore,” said Senthirajah. “You’re exposed to almost a different side of reality and it’s good to be involved with an organization that keeps you aware and appreciative of your cultural background.” Utsav generally involves an afternoon of performances before serving a meal, which the SIS usually arranges to be catered by a local Indian restaurant, usually Taste of India or Evergreen. Many other events, such as Japan Night, work with campus catering to arrange a culturally themed meal, but the SIS uses nearby restaurants for a more authentic spread. SIS is reviewing auditions to see who will perform at this year’s Utsav event, which usually involves various song and dance routines. Last year, the SIS even arranged for comedian Hasan Minhaj from the “Daily Show” to come to campus and perform his “Homecoming King” comedy routine about his life as a first-generation immigrant. According to Cathy Webster, co-president of the Japanese Student Organization, events like these are also important to the campus community because they bring attention to the many diverse student groups across campus. “It’s a way for people to be proud of their culture and where they and their families have come from and really share that with the rest of the students at UO,” Webster said. On Feb. 19, students, Eugenians and their families waited patiently in a line that curled around the foyer outside of the EMU Ballroom for the annual Japan Night celebration. The line stayed full until the event sold out and those still waiting were turned away. Inside, the room was filled with tables covered in Japanese snacks, candy and glowing paper lanterns. In the back, there were several stations with traditional Japanese games and activities, such as origami and a hachimaki headband making table. These caught the attention of visiting children and adults alike. Over the course of the evening, there were a variety of performances inspired by Japanese culture, including dance performances by Duck Street Dance Club and a taiko drum performance by student group Ahira Daiko. The night began with children from Yujin Gakuen Elementary, Eugene’s local Japanese immersion school, singing and playing Japanese hand drums. The entire audience later competed for prizes by playing Janken, the Japanese equivalent of rock-paper-scissors. Then, Theresa Wanner, a sophomore journalism student at UO, sang “Hanamizuki,” one of Japan’s most popular karaoke songs, while wearing a flowery, black kimono. Halfway through the night, performances paused for an intermission so performers and attendees could enjoy a ramen buffet provided by campus catering. Performers and attendees crowded around the buffet line, scooping long tangled noodles into bowls and garnishing their meals with a variety of toppings. As the night went on, the audience remained engrossed with the performances, games and cultural fare. At one table in particular, Tim Lutz and his wife Cindy Lutz sat — with Tim proudly wearing a hachimaki headband adorned with the word “Emperor” written in Japanese — enjoying the night’s events. Tim and Cindy attended the night’s festivities to support their daughter Lily Lutz, a senior at UO studying Japanese language. Although Lily is not Japanese herself, she has been involved with the JSO for the last two years, and according to her father, has had a natural interest in Japanese culture since she first learned to read. Lily regards events like Japan Night as “a great opportunity to interact with Japanese culture.” She thinks involvement with groups like the JSO is a great way to experience and share a different culture. Students and members of the Eugene community alike can look forward to several more culture night events this year. This year’s Utsav will take place during week five of spring term, and Africa Night, hosted by the African Student Association, will be on June 3. Keep an eye on the UO events calendar for more. “These culture nights are like highlights, where you can see cultures that aren’t usually seen in the mainstream majority,” Yue “Adam” Shen said. “It gives them a chance, on this campus particularly, to be in the spotlight.”

I think these events, first and foremost, create a space for cultures and the people who identify as part of those cultures that are usually a minority,” -YUE “ADAM” SHEN

The Ducks are once again dancing in the NCAA Tournament. Oregon earned a No. 10 seed and will face No. 7 Temple (247) in Durham, North Carolina, on Saturday. The winner goes against either No. 2 Duke or No. 15 Hampton in the Round of 32. “It’s such a big deal,” freshman Sierra Campisano said. “It’s crazy. March Madness is my favorite thing in the entire world. My mom used to take me out of school to watch it. My freshman year, we’re in it. It’s very surreal.” UConn (No. 1), Duke (No. 2) and Maryland (No. 3) are the top three teams in Bridgeport. Fellow Pac12 team UCLA, a No. 4 seed, also landed the Bridgeport regional. Graves called the moment special for the team. Monday marked the program’s first NCAA Tournament appearance since 2005. And the last coach to guide the Ducks to March Madness, Bev Smith, was among those in the crowd. “It’s amazing what this young team has done,” Graves said. “The staff — they’re the ones who really put this thing together. They’re

making these players better ... It’s gratifying because I really, truly believe in my heart that this is a program that’s going to continue to get better and better.” Graves said the Ducks will take Tuesday off before likely departing Eugene on Wednesday or Thursday. Tipoff on Saturday is set for 3:30 PST on ESPN2. “I don’t know much about Temple, but I know they’re in UConn’s league,” Graves said. “They have tradition and history. They’ll play great defense.” Cal earned a No. 9 seed, giving the Pac-12 seven teams in the NCAA Tournament. “That’s awesome,” Graves said. “It’s great for the league. It shows that we’re the toughest league in the country.” Campisano said the rigors of Pac-12 play will give the Ducks an edge in March Madness. “It prepared us really, really well,” Campisano said. “They just announced Oregon State as a No. 2 seed. UCLA is a four. We hung with these teams, and we beat a lot of them too. We’re definitely well-prepared.”

In a dominant performance, the Oregon men’s golf team picked up its third victory of 2017, winning by 22 strokes at the Bandon Dunes Championship over second place Texas Tech. Three Ducks finished in the top four of the individual standings with the nation’s No. 1 collegiate golfer, senior Wyndham Clark and sophomore Edwin Yi leading the way for the Ducks at 8-under par. Sophomore Ryan Gronlund fell just one stroke behind his teammates with a 7-under finish. Hannes Ronneblad from Texas Tech took home the individual title by two strokes. Oregon freshman Kevin Geniza completed the tournament with a 1-over par and the No. 3 collegiate golfer, Norman Xiong, rounded out the Ducks’ starting five with his highest final score of his four tournaments at Oregon, shooting a 2-over par. “It has been the Wyndham and Norman show most of the year, so that was really encouraging to have other guys show up when we needed them,” head coach Casey Martin said to GoDucks after round two. All four Oregon golfers who participated in the event as individuals finished with double digit over-par scores. Sophomore Sam Foust shot an 11-over par, senior Sulman Raza had a 12-over par, freshman Roberto Lebrija with 14-over and senior Nigel Lett

finished the tournament with a 17-over par. To kick off the event on Sunday, Wyndham Clark put together his best opening round since joining the Oregon program with a sixunder, good for second place individually. Three Ducks were in the top-six in team play, with Gronlund and Yi in sixth place scoring three-under par. As a team the Ducks held an eight-stroke lead after the first day over Pac-12 foe Colorado and Texas Tech, who each were at five-under. Of the four golfers who competed in this tournament as individuals for the Ducks, only Lebrija shot under par after round one, with a threeunder. Foust shot a two-over par. Lett and Raza shot seven-over and eight-over par to end round one. On day two, Gronlund made a jump up the standings, up to seven-under par. Clark fell back two strokes to four-under par. Yi maintained his sixth-place spot from day one, tying with Clark at four-under. Both Xiong and Geniza sat over par heading into the final round. As a team the Ducks had a comfortable 10-stroke lead going into Tuesday’s finale. Next up the Ducks have a shorter break between tournaments than they did between their last two. They play in the Duck Invitational at the Eugene Country Club on March 27 and 28.

The DANGEROUS WORDS of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin

At 16, I found myself at a fire department in Kidderminster, England, with a friend of mine. The firefighters took us for a ride in the truck, let us use the Jaws of Life, hold the hose and wear their turnouts. I guess that’s what happens when two 16-year-old girls show up in miniskirts and lip gloss (the age of adulthood is 15 in the UK). Afterward, I told my friend’s mom that she “wore the cute fireman’s pants.� Bright red and mortified, my friend screamed, “Trousers! The American means trousers!� Apparently, pants means underwear to the British. Words matter. Unfortunately, when words mutate in the modern world the effects are rarely limited to a comedic gaffe. Rather, the evolution often follows this pattern: label the enemy, invest in fear, subtract freedom, increase power. Lather. Rinse. Repeat. In 1999, Moscow was ravaged by a series of bombings that were promptly blamed on the Chechens. Though many have speculated these bombings were actually carried out by the FSB (formerly the KGB), it has never been proven who was behind the attacks. So we can speculate about corruption on the part of the Kremlin but when a country is controlled by a handful of billionaires and notable thugs, investigative journalism is a life or death game, and no one has lived long enough to dig to the bottom of that conspiracy. Russian television labeled it the “Chechens� and war began – a war that enabled a young Vladimir Putin to claim power under the guise

of protecting the people from the enemy, the Chechens. Soon, the label morphed to “Chechen Extremists� in order to pacify those parts of the population who might be sympathetic to Chechens in general. And then, as tends to happen when words evolve, Chechen became synonymous with terrorists. In the eyes of the Kremlin (and out the lips of the state-sponsored Russian television) Chechens were terrorists. Period. But that was almost 20 years ago, right? Currently, Turkey has more journalists behind bars than any other country in the world. Since the attempted coup last July, Turkey has shut down more than 130 media outlets on the basis of supporting terrorism and there are presently more than 150 journalists behind bars. Journalists used their freedom to spread ideas that were unpopular within the government. Media outlets were able to destabilize the government by dissemination of information. This made truth, news and those who brought it into the public light the enemies of the state. Or, to put it in more analogous terms, a crisis occurred and the government seized the opportunity to strip away individual rights and lock up those with whom it did not agree. Journalists became activists. Activists became accomplices. Accomplices became terrorists. Another mutation of words in the era of fake news. But that’s halfway around the world, right? Donald Trump has referred to Muslims as dangerous and said he would implement an entire shutdown of Muslims entering the United

States. He has progressed to using the label of Muslim Extremists and even begun to use the word Muslim synonymously with terrorist. But his mimicry of ‘90s Putin isn’t the end of his wordplay. He has moved against the media and journalists with a ferocity not witnessed in prior administrations. He’s labeled stories he doesn’t like and networks he doesn’t like as “fake news� with the intention of undermining credibility. He’s accused journalists of undermining the authority of the White House and he has flat-out called the media the enemy of the people. But those are just words, right? At the University of Oregon, we have a diverse group of students, faculty and employees from all over the world. My daughter’s favorite playmate is from Pakistan and her mother is here on a student visa. My next-door neighbors are from India and our closest friends in the complex were on a visa from South Korea. Each of us wears a label of some sort and each of us represents a word at risk. Now, it is a mutation of the Muslim label and a distortion of truth. Now, it is journalists being arrested for documenting protests and it is news organizations being shut out of White House gaggles. Now, it is lies under oath and dismissals of those who might investigate. Now, we are still in the stage where the enemy is given a name. Soon, the rights we value will be handed over under the guise of protecting us from that enemy. But it’s just four years, right? BY ESTHER SHERMAN
