The Oregon women’s basketball team (13-10, 4-8 in Pac-12) hosts the University of Southern California Trojans (15-9, 8-4 in Pac-12) on Valentine’s Day, Feb. 14 at Matthew Knight Arena. Coming off a 81-75 loss to the Colorado Buffaloes on Monday, the Ducks are looking to bounce back in the Pac-12 before the Pac-12 tournament that starts March 6 in Seattle, Wash.

Photos: Students celebrate Lunar New Year around campus

Three Chinese student groups are ringing in the start of the new lunar year and the year of the horse in the spirit of collaboration. This year’s annual China Night celebration will be put on by the Chinese Students and Scholars Association, Huafeng Magazine and the Chinese Philanthropic Leadership Association. This year’s theme for China Night is “A Night in the Life” of a Chinese student, and the aim is to show true Chinese culture while taking the international students back to when they were growing up in their native country. Typically, Chinese New Year is a 15-day celebration when Chinese families get together to honor the spring festival with food and gifts, but because the international Chinese students are unable to spend the New Year with their families in China, China Night will give them an opportunity to celebrate together. China Night took place in the EMU Ballroom on Friday.

To celebrate Lunar New Year, the University of Oregon Vietnamese Student Association is hosting their annual Tet Celebration at the Many Nations Longhouse. The purpose of this year’s Tet Celebration is to educate people about Vietnam’s biggest holiday of the year and how it reflects their vibrant culture by showcasing Vietnam’s food, dance and games. The event includes a traditional lion dancer performance, classic Vietnamese games and talking about other aspects of Lunar New Year. The UO VSA annual Tet Celebration took place at the Many Nations Longhouse on Friday.
