Your Dean of Students
We are here to build a strong campus community for all. Whether you are a student, a faculty member, or staff, we are here to support you. Our resources can connect you with others to build relationships and find support from peers. The Student Conduct Code is the standard to help us maintain the integrity of our community in order to keep it safe and supportive. If you need help or would like to report a concern, please connect with us.
A Community Just For You
The University of Oregon is a place that welcomes everyone. No matter where you are from, what you look like, or how you identify, you are one of us and a part of our community. We know it's important to find support and feel safe with the people around you. These communities will get you started, yet there are so many more. Find your place, connect with others, and learn from each other.
Ducks Do Something
We want every Duck to be the best version of themselves. But you weren't born knowing how to navigate every situation you'll encounter while in college. That's OK. We have resources and programs here to help you make healthy decisions and support your fellow Ducks, too. It is important that we are here for each other and understand how our actions affect our community so that we all can have a positive experience together. We encourage all Ducks, if you see something, say something! Ducks Do Something! Learn more about programs and student organizations working to support a safe and healthy campus.
Leadership and Involvement
You are a vital part of building a better community for all Ducks. We have a number of opportunities in the Dean of Students Office available for you to be a leader in your community. Maybe you want to build stronger multicultural communities or continue a legacy built on shared values. It could be providing your perspective on a committee, facilitating workshops, serving the community, or student employment. Wherever your passion leads you, there are opportunities waiting.

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:
