Student organizations provide tremendous benefits to both the University and surrounding communities. The University is committed to supporting student organizations through a recognition system that serves the interests of both the University and student organizations; that recognizes and respects the right of students to freely associate and freely express themselves without coercion or undue influence from the University; that ensures that student organizations operate consistently with the University’s core value of diversity, non-discrimination, financial accountability, responsible stewardship of public resources, full academic engagement, and the maintenance of a healthy and safe learning environment. Student Organizations that choose to be recognized by the Associated Students of the University of Oregon (ASUO), accept the rights

Each media partner invests in its Snowden intern by creating a supportive learning environment in its newsroom and paying about half of the intern’s stipend. The Charles Snowden Program for Excellence in Journalism endowment covers all remaining costs. During the 10-week program, Snowden interns learn what it takes to work in a professional setting. Whether they’re covering forest fires or City Hall, taking photos, shooting video, or recording audio, students produce exceptional work that is often featured on front pages, websites, and radio broadcasts and picked up by the Associated Press. In 1998, the family of Charles and Julie Snowden initiated the program in Charles’s memory. Charles had served as an editor at The Oregonian and the Oregon Journal. The program is open to student journalists at all Oregon colleges and universities. Since its inception, 270 students from 15 Oregon colleges have been awarded internships at 27 news organizations around the state. More than 80 percent of Snowden interns gain full-time employment in news media after completing their university degrees. 1 071018 Snowden Program.indd 1 9/6/18 3:52 PM MEET THE 2018 Snowden DANA ALSTON DESIREE BERGSTROM CAROLINE CABRAL University
