News Writing

This article was reported and written in two hours on the 2024 Election Day to get a sense of how people in an assigned place near the University of Oregon were feeling that day. My reporting partner and I were assigned the sandwich store off campus, Jersey Mike’s.

On Oct. 5, 2024, an International Day of Action, Pro-Palestine activist groups and others local to Eugene rallied to kick off “Intifada” Week—meaning shaking off in Arabic—and commemorate one year of genocide and resistance.

Following multiple drugging allegations at fraternities, the University of Oregon Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life, implemented a new social plan to address safety at social events. The plan includes a two-event limit per term, which is arguably the most notable and controversial aspect of the plan, which I talk to chapter leaders about. In addition, I also wrote and filmed an explainer video to add more context to an aspect of the article and promote the article on social media, which garnered over 3,000 views.
