At the University of Oregon, we
are “committed to exceptional teaching,
discovery, and service. We work at a
human scale to generate big ideas.. As a
community of scholars, we help
individuals question critically, think
logically, reason effectively,
communicate clearly, act creatively, and
live ethically” (University of Oregon
Mission Statement).
The University of Oregon
educates over 24,000 students annually.
This past year, the freshman class broke
a record by having an average incoming GPA of 3.61 and having some of the highest test scores ever
recorded by the university. While the University of Oregon is split by gender almost evenly, the amount of
ethnic diversity helps the university grow and allows students to have the opportunity to learn about
different cultural backgrounds. No matter what background and past you come from, there is a place for
everyone to be themselves at the University of Oregon. In addition to academic excellence and diversity,
the University of Oregon offers students the opportunities to get involved with many activities, in which
fit their interests. Lastly, the athletic programs have excelled in the recent years. You can always catch
students cheering on their classmates at football games, swim meets, tennis matches, and many more.
Our campus is one that gives back to the community and produces high quality students who strive
for innovative personalities and demonstrate what it means to be a person of high morals. The University
of Oregon is more than a place for learning. It is a community of scholars and researchers. It is a campus
filled with fresh and clean air. It is a place where people love one another. The University of Oregon is
home, and we want to make this your home as well.
Welcome to the University of Oregon!

Residence life makes up a large part of the University of
Oregon atmosphere. There are 11 residence halls, which
house roughly 4,000 students, and 9 dining centers on our
campus. Our residence halls offer a plethora of
opportunities to become academically involved through
academic residential communities, educational activities
sponsored by student leaders, and opportunities to
connect with faculty advisors throughout the term.
Throughout our halls, you find both co-ed and single
gender floors. We believe that this not only enhances
diversity on our campus, but brings a sense of belonging
through the ability to choose where it is most comfortable
to live.
Our campus has made a major push in the past few years to create a space that includes all
identities. We utilize pronouns not only within our residence halls, but within many classrooms,
programs, and initiatives throughout campus. University of Oregon was ranked in the Top 10
most friendly LGBTQIA campuses, according to Best Colleges. We are super proud of the work
that our campus does to make every student feel welcomed and involved.
Residential Life at the University of Oregon
NRHH at the University of Oregon
The goal of UO NRHH (University of Oregon's National
Residence Hall Honorary) is to recognize those who would
otherwise go unrecognized. We do this by having events
like Random Acts of Kindness Week and writing OTMs.
We also have a goal of bringing service to the residence
halls that could affect the Eugene community.
In the past year alone, the chapter has grown a significant
amount. We're a relatively new chapter, considering UO
NRHH was revived only in 2012, so we had struggled with
membership and running programs. This year, though, our
chapter size has grown twice as large compared to last
year. We’ve made committees a staple of our chapter, and
we have had successful programs planned and executed!
Currently, all of the RHA executive board members are involved in NRHH in some sort of capacity.
Last school year, NRHH funded registration fees for participants in the RHA Leadership Retreat. We
share an office space as well. Beyond this, RHA supports NRHH through all of its events. There are
many opportunities that RHA takes to promote programs that NRHH is facilitating. The impact that
this collaboration brings to campus is huge. While it may not be seen because of the chapter’s small
size, it is definitely felt by the residents that live in the residence halls.
8. !8
Residence Hall Association at the University of Oregon
Residence Hall Association, also
known as RHA, is the second
largest student-run organization on
campus. RHA thrives off of student
involvement and facilitates some of
the largest events held on campus.
RHA works closely with several
departments on campus including
University Housing, University
Dining and Catering, and
University Marketing.
RHA at the University of Oregon
is overseen by the executive board, which consists of 5 members. These 5 individuals help
shape the passion and drive throughout the year by facilitating events, leadership retreats, and
seminars to provide an educationally fun experience for all of the residents at the University of
Oregon.
RHA holds General Council
meetings every week on
Wednesday nights. General
Council is a time for each hall
government to send 2
representatives and give input as
to how funds should be spent, hear
from guest speakers, and propose
new ideas to the council. General
Council is the larger format of Hall
Government at the University of
Oregon.
Each of our hall government
members is part of a RHA
committee as a part of being
elected into that role. These
committees include presidents,
RHA representatives, event and
activities representatives, finance
representatives, and leadership representatives. All of these positions have additional meetings
throughout the week with each RHA exec board member.

Conference Dates
A big part of the spirit and culture at the
University of Oregon is our football team.
With the football home games bring parents,
alumni, and students. Because we are still
waiting on the 2017 football schedule, we
are waiting to decide on which date to host
the conference. As soon as this is released,
which is slated for late December or early
January, we will let the region know. Our
tentative date, however, for the 2017
conference is set to be November 10-12. In
the event that this is a home game, we have
alternative dates ready to go.
The University of Oregon
had major success at
PACURH 2015 in Pullman,
Washington. RHA and
NRHH took 6 delegates, 3
boardroom representatives,
and 1 advisor. Out of the 9
students, 3 were first year
students, 3 were NRHH
representatives, 2 were
Resident Assistants and 4
were RHA executive board
members.
Our current RHA and NRHH Executive Board traveled to the NACURH conference last year.
There were many things learned about what it takes to be an important leader within
organizations as large as RHA and NRHH. Most of our executive board members had been to a
conference before, so there was knowledge about how the system works. All of our RHA
members served on task force committees within PACURH, and some hosted programs at
PACURH 2015. Last year, we submitted legislation at No Frills. We are so excited to be a part of
such a larger organization. It is something that provides good for residence halls in the world.

Transportation from the hotels
to campus will be provided
using our motor pool vans. We
will have 12 reserved vans
throughout the conference,
which can accommodate 12
passengers each. Many of our
volunteers are van certified
and will be helping you reach your destination safely throughout the weekend. We will always have a
van available, but will be utilizing the shuttle service primarily in the morning and evening, as that is
when it is most necessary to go back to the hotel. Students will being staying at one of the hotels that is
just a short walk from campus. The majority will be staying in the Phoenix Inn Suites, which is a 12
minute walk to campus. Best Western is located just 8 minutes, as well. We do, however, encourage you
to bring a good pair of footwear, as we love being sustainable and reducing our footprint!
Flying into Portland Airport? Check out the
carpet, it’s awesome! We ask that you arrange
your transportation to the University of Oregon
from the airport. In addition, please check out
our recommendations for shuttles. PDX is a
larger airport and will most likely be cost
effective when coming to the conference. PDX is
located 2 hours from the University of Oregon.
Driving to the conference? Great choice! We hope that you will leave your
vehicles at the hotel and utilize our shuttle service. With that being said, any
accommodations can be made, just let us know!
Flying into Eugene Airport? Woohoo! We are
so glad you are here. You can expect to see a
van awaiting your delegation at the arrivals
pick-up area. We will take you directly to your
hotel, where you will be greeted with more
conference staff who are eagerly awaiting
your arrival. Eugene Airport is located 20
minutes from the University of Oregon.

Housing
We will be housing our guests at two hotels close to
campus. Delegates will be housed at the Phoenix
Inn. Advisors and special guests will stay at the
Best Western New Oregon Motel. Phoenix Inn is
about three-quarters of a mile from the center of
campus and only about an eight minute walk. We
will be asking delegates to share queen or king-
sized beds, but we will be sure to accommodate all
preferences noted during registration. The price per
delegate is $56.70 per night.
Both hotels provide wifi, ADA accessibility, a
continental breakfast, amazing locally owned
restaurants within walking distance, and a
variety of games available for check out. We
will be able to host about 400 delegates and
advisors, as well as 50 special guests.

Leadership: Be the Line Leader Leadership is important in every aspect of life. The
leadership category will provide programs that not
only help you become a leader in your institutions,
but also how to become a leader in your community.
They will give you a diverse array of how to become a
leader in your life.
Community Service/Sustainability: Clean Up Your
Own Mess
Community service and sustainability are very
important to maintaining a clean and healthy
environment. Institutions can share how they are
being proactive to help make their campus a better
place.
Health and Wellness: Always Eat Your Veggies With the stresses of school, work, and extracurricular
activities, we often forget that we need to take care of
ourselves. Taking a nap and eating cookies is one way
to de-stress, but these programs will teach you how to
live a healthy, balanced lifestyle.
Networking: Making New Friends and Keeping the
Old
Networking is one of the most important things to
learn how to do and learn how to do well. Programs
in this category will give you tips on good networking
skills and how maintain strong relationships.
Diversity: Everyone Matters The diversity of your institution and acceptance
towards everyone who goes there is crucial in making
students feel safe and accepted. These programs will
teach you how their campus is consistently bring
diversity and acceptance onto their campus.

Bags of Love is a local non-profit organization dedicated
to helping children in need around the Eugene-
Springfield area, which ultimately fits with our theme of
the conference. We have budgeted each school to donate
$50, which we will then use to buy necessary supplies to
put together care packages, or better known as “bags of
love.” Conference
attendees will be
putting together the
care packages when
they arrive at the conference. Each bag of love will
have a variety of supplies in it, including toiletries
(eg. shampoo, soap, hand-sanitizer, toothbrush,
toothpaste, kleenex, etc.), toys (eg. stuff animals,
books, etc.), clothing (eg. socks, underwear, t-shirts,
etc.), and a handcrafted quilt provided by Bags of
Love. These supplies will then be put into a
handcrafted bag also provided by Bags of Love and
will be distributed to different children in need
around the local community. This is not only an
amazing opportunity to serve the greater community,
but a fun hands-on activity to bond with your fellow
delegates!
Philanthropy
All of the spaces that we will be utilizing throughout the
conference at the University of Oregon is ADA accessible.
Our campus is relatively flat and will not provide any
difficult mobility issues. However, we will be running our
accessibility shuttle that will assist those in need from any
destination on campus. We have already started working
with our Accessible Education Center to ensure that we are
providing what is best for the delegates of our conference.
Sign language interpreters, wheelchairs, and TTY/ TDD can
be accommodated upon request.

University of Oregon facilities are nothing but
amazing. Some of our buildings have historical
background that we hope to share with you during
the conference. Ever seen Animal House? Parts of
that movie were filmed right where we will be
hosting the conference, in the Erb Memorial Union.
Straub Hall is the location for many of our events as
well. This building is connected to one of our 9
residence halls and features spaces for classrooms.
In addition, we will also be using the Living
Learning Center, a popular choice by many groups
to utilize space.

In order to support our classroom of awesome delegates, we need volunteers to ensure a smooth
weekend of success! Conference Co-Chairs will be overseeing a committee of students that will work
to recruit a strong team of people. In addition to the Co-Chairs overseeing the committee, there will
be a professional advisor supporting these students, as well. The volunteer committee is going to be
responsible for targeting organizations that work closely with the Division of Student Life. Potential
volunteers will come from the Holden Center (community service oriented organization), Residence
Hall Association, Hall Governments, the Associated Students of the University of Oregon and many
more student organizations. In addition, we will be having a large portion of the Student Leaders
(RA) be a part of the volunteer team as well.
Volunteers will be working for 3-4 hours at a time, with breaks scheduled in order to respect their
health and self care. We will provide a hospitality room for volunteers to refresh and take a moment
to breathe. Volunteers will also be provided with a conference T-shirt.
Volunteer Training
Volunteers will have the opportunity to go through two different trainings before the conference. One
of these trainings will be focused on creating a larger picture as to what PACURH means and stands
for. This meeting will include governing documents, past conference examples, and a time for
question and answers. The other training will focus more on logistics for the conference and what
will be happening. Additionally, we will take a large amount of time to discuss safety and emergency
management within the volunteer role. We plan on having a professional member from the Office of
Emergency Management come and speak with us on how to educate our team in a thorough and
efficient way.
Example of Roles:
Assistance in conference: Giving directions to delegates, advisors, and special guests will be the main
task of this role. These volunteers will have campus maps and contact information for the chairs of
the conference.
Special Events: These people will be in charge of helping create events within the conference. Events
include but are not limited to board room, entertainment in the night, and the banquet. These shifts
may last longer than 4 hours, but will include ample opportunities for rest.
Runners: Runners are in charge of acting as a liaison between any conference chair and the overall
production conference as a whole. Runners will work with the chair closely to decide what needs to
be implemented and what can be done.

Safety & Security
The safety of delegates at the Regional Leadership
Conference is the number one priority to the
conference staff when planning this event. We will be
working closely with University Housing and Student
Life to create a plan that prioritizes delegate safety. The
Eugene community is a safe city that has a plethora of
police officers on duty at all times. In addition to
Eugene Police Department, our campus is provided
with the University of Oregon Police Department. Our
police officers are fully sworn in officers whose duty
and desire is to protect the campus. All of our
buildings, especially the residence halls, are equipped
with key card only access at all times throughout the
day. UOPD is very efficient in ensuring all halls are kept safe and respond quickly in times
of emergency.
Our campus is beyond safe. We have several services on our campus funded to help
provided students with a better sense of security about being within our community. Like
most universities, we employ emergency boxes all around campus that can call UOPD at
any time in the day. These are equipped with video cameras and a phone. In addition to
these, our student government provides “Safe Ride,” an alternative for those at night who
feel uncomfortable walking at night. Safe Ride picks people up and transports them home,
no questions asked. Our public safety team is also very active in walking assists when Safe
Ride is overloaded with requests.
Our goal for the wrap up report is to be as
efficient and productive as possible
immediately following the conference. We
will implement a schedule in which we
will expect all conference chairs to have
portions of the wrap up report finished
and submitted. The final wrap up report
will follow the original theme of our
conference, Our Leadership Playground.
Our final wrap report will be finished no
later than January 12th, 2018.
Registration for delegates will be available on
the conference website. The website will include
any information relating to the conference. We
will utilize the Guidebook app as a resource for
attendees. The Guidebook will have information
such as, a campus map and conference schedule,
readily available to help attendees navigate
throughout the conference.
Twitter, Facebook & Snapchat will be used
throughout the conference for updates and
spirit.
