Fri, 25 Jan 2008 09:55:38 -0800

On January 29th (next Tuesday) in the law building room 175 at noon there will be an open forum to discuss the issue of equipping DPS with tasers. If you feel strongly about this or just want to get more information on what exactly this means for students then stop by and get involved.

Meeting This Thursday

Tue, 22 Jan 2008 16:50:18 -0800

Since the Emu was closed on Monday a meeting will be held Thursday at 4pm. If this doesn't work let us know, otherwise come with an article idea and/or suggestions for those still searching.

Stipend Positions

Tue, 08 Jan 2008 09:59:21 -0800

At the meeting next Monday at 4:00pm the open stipend positions will be "discussed". That is to say that we will be looking at those who are interested in the positions and possibly deciding on them. If you are interested in one of these positions it would be great if you could come to next week's meeting. If you cannot make it, then you should stop by the office (or contact us in some other way) to let us know you are interested.

New Monday meeting time/Thursday meetings

Tue, 08 Jan 2008 09:53:58 -0800

At last night's meeting it was decided to move the Monday meetings to 4:00pm. If you could not be there and you think this is a bad time, then you should contact us. There will be a Thursday meeting (at least this week) at 5:00pm to discuss a good time for a second weekly meeting (if there is going to be one).

Meeting tonight

Mon, 07 Jan 2008 12:41:18 -0800

The meeting tonight will be at the regularly scheduled time (that is 5pm). We will discuss if we need to change meeting times at the meeting. Hope to see you there!

Date error in 19.3 (Peter Young speech)

Thu, 29 Nov 2007 16:39:30 -0800

The recently released issue 19.3 is fresh off the press, but with an error. The Announcements section erroneously reports the date of Peter Young's presentation as "Thusday, December 8th @ 6pm". It should read "Thursday, December 6th @ 6pm". Sorry for any confusion and be sure to attend what is likely to be one of the hottest presentations in recent UO memory :)

Much love,
SI Staff

The following was an email to the insurgent account:

Hello!

The University of Oregon's Center for the Advancement of Sustainable Living (CASL) has aspirations for a speaker and workshop series about sustainability, leading up to Focus The Nation at the end of January. We would love your organization's partnership in making this a reality. Our goal is to make this a community oriented event, so we invite each club on this campus as well as many community organizations to use their individual area of expertise and interest to make this an inclusive series.
