Correction: A previous version of this story referred to the counseling center as the health center. The two are different entities.

The University of Oregon settled a lawsuit with two former counseling center whistleblowers for the amount of $425,000 in total Sunday. The whistleblowers, two employees at the University Counseling and Testing Center, claimed the university accessed the counseling records of “Jane Doe”—a student allegedly raped by UO basketball players—without her consent in 2014.

Jennifer Morlok and Karen Stokes filed their lawsuit in November 2015 against four administrators at the U.S. District Court in Eugene. Stokes was executive assistant in the Counseling Center; Morlok was Jane Doe’s therapist after the alleged assault. When they spoke out against the university, Stokes claimed she was being “forced to leave her position” by UO administration in March 2015, and Morlok faced a “hostile working environment” that made her resign October 2015, according to the lawsuit.

UO denied any wrongdoing in retrieving the counseling records. In a statement to the Oregonian, UO spokesman Tobin Klinger said the settlement “does allow all parties to move forward and avoid years of expensive litigation.” He said it’s not an admission of liability by the university or its employees that were listed in the original suit filed.

The university settled the lawsuit with Doe August 2015 for $800,000 and a four-year scholarship.

The three former basketball players named in the alleged incident, Damyean Dotson, Dominic Artis, and Brandon Austin, also filed lawsuits against the university. Those have yet to be resolved.

At least one man was taken into custody after apparently pointing a gun at the crowd participating at a Black Lives Matter rally in Portland today after the death of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile.

A Facebook group, Don’t Shoot Portland, held a rally starting at Pioneer Courthouse Square. The crowd of about 400 people—including many University of Oregon students—then marched through 6th Avenue to the Justice Center, where the incident happened.

Oregonian reporter Jim Ryan live-tweeted the event.

In Eugene, students will be holding a similar memorial march tomorrow.

On Tuesday, the Internet was shocked by a video of African-American Alton Sterling being fatally shot by police in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, outside a convenience store where he had been selling CDs.

On Thursday, Americans woke to news of another dead black man: Diamond “Lavish” Reynolds uploaded a live video on Facebook after her boyfriend, Philando Castile, was shot by police during a traffic stop in St. Paul, Minnesota. He was reaching for his ID when the police shot him, Reynolds said. Castile later died in the hospital. His four-year-old daughter was in the car the entire incident.

Here is how University of Oregon students and the campus community have reacted to the shootings:

Black student groups will be coordinating a memorial tomorrow at the EMU Amphitheater at 1:45 pm.

Update: UOPD public information officer Kelly McIver sent out resume information on July 11. Article has been updated to reflect this information.

Three finalists for UOPD Chief are scheduled to visit campus to meet with the 13-member search committee and other key members of the University of Oregon this July, the UOPD website announces.

After the unexpected departure of the former UOPD Chief Carolyn McDermed in February, UOPD has formed a search committee, including faculty, undergrad and grad students, UOPD staff members, UO administrators and Eugene Police Department Chief Pete Kerns, to determine the next Chief for UOPD.

UOPD is a $4.65 million entity that was established in 2012. Its purpose is to provide law enforcement service to the entire campus with over 30,000 occupants learning, teaching, researching and attending events. Since then, UOPD has been making the news regularly.

In 2013, the Oregon State Board of Higher Education granted the UOPD’s request for an armed police force.

Its effort to hire an Assistant Chief fell through when the only candidate withdrew her application early January, 2016.

When former Chief McDermed unexpectedly departed the unit without any warnings in February, UOPD captain Pete Deshpande was named interim police chief.

In May 2016, UOPD settled a $1 million lawsuit brought against it by former police officer James Cleavenger for wrongful termination and retaliation.

UOPD will post each candidate’s identity, resume and detailed public schedule three days prior to each visit on its website. Here’s the specific schedule for each candidate:

Miyashiro has served as the senior director of safety operations at the University of LaVerne for the last year.

Prior to his tenure in LaVerne, Miyashiro served as the Chief of Police for the Riverside Community College District Police department for eight years.

When the Oregon Institute of Marine Biology, an off-campus branch of the University of Oregon, held the opening ceremony for its new exhibit on May 21, it was no original celebration.

After the opening remarks from a senator, Coos Bay county commissioner, and a University of Oregon professor and director, OIMB Facilities Manager James Johnson cut the kelp instead of a ribbon to the cheering of more than 40 people in attendance, officially bringing the newest addition to the university off-campus exhibition into operation.

The Charleston Marine Life Center is a project nine years in the making, which was funded through grants, donations and leftovers from other projects over the years. It’s located on the university marine lab property overlooking the marina in Charleston, Oregon.

The facility is part museum, part aquarium and part learning lab and gallery, which officials hope will eventually become a destination for visitors of all ages along the southern coast, CMLC Director Trish Mace said.

The new two-story building includes five different exhibits, focusing on coastal ecosystems, deep-water habitats, fisheries, marine mammals, and ongoing marine research. The exhibit ranges from skeletons of large sea mammals such as gray whales and killer whales to a “touch tank,” an aquarium and exhibit with underwater videos from ocean reefs and underwater volcanoes.

“This place has information that’s designed not only for the little kids, but also for adults,” OIMB Director Craig Young said. “We’re not the only ones who are excited about it – the public is tremendously excited about it.”

After the ceremony, the exhibit was open for free and was packed with locals and UO students.

The new museum includes marine specimens collected by university researchers dating back 50 years.

“The center is about the diversity of ocean life,” Mace said in a statement. “We want to introduce people of all ages to the incredible diversity of life in the waters off Oregon, and also to the research being done by faculty and students at the University of Oregon and the Oregon Institute of Marine Biology.”

The building, as an effort to be sustainable, generates all of its power from a wind turbine on the OIMB campus, making it’s the first net-zero building in the area and UO’s first venture into wind power.

Its Facebook page is also active with multiple educational videos taken from the center.

The university marine biology department has been teaching on the Oregon coast since 1924, Young said. He said the Coos Bay area has the most diverse marine life in the whole Pacific Coast, hence the start of the facility.

Young also hopes the center will not only be beneficial to the university and its students, but also helpful to the local community economically and educationally.

The center is open Wednesday to Saturday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. The admission fee is $5 for adults, $4 for seniors and free for children and students with IDs.

Eugene Police Department fireworks patrols continue tonight after responding to 82 phone calls reporting illegal fireworks on Independence Day.

According to a press release, EPD gave out five citations for prohibited fireworks last night. Four of these offenders “opted to participate” in the Fireworks Restorative Justice Program, which allows them to avoid formal convictions on their records and any additional fees.

Participants will have to pay a fee of $75 at the door to the Center for Dialogue and Resolution. The program is on July 27, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Eugene Police Kilcullen Room, 300 Country Club Road.

The program is monitored by the City of Eugene, the Police Department, and the Center for Dialogue and Resolution and will include classroom exercises, a guided facilitation and discussion, and a victim’s impact panel.

Two incidents of shots fired were also reported to EPD. As of 9 p.m. of July 5, EPD only received eight calls regarding illegal fireworks.

McLaughin encouraged the public to call 541-682-5111 to report illegal fireworks within city of Eugene limits, and leave 9-1-1 free for life/safety emergencies.

Welcome back to Wednesday’s Senate meeting – We went to the meeting, so you didn’t have to.

Lane Districts Transportation refused to let students ride the bus due to confusion with the new ID cards.

The six senators, under the leadership of senate president Ednaly Jimenez-Gomez, held a 30-minute meeting this Wednesday to discuss Senate business.

ASUO Advisor Becky Girvan said at least one LTD driver has rejected three students from boarding the bus due to the new ID card. The new cards have a completely different layout and appearance. The card office just is handing them out this week, Girvan said.

“We have contacted LTD on this issue,” she said. “It’s a minor issue. With any type of new ID card implementation, it’s likely to be expected.”

Girvan encouraged students to report to LTD or the ASUO with the driver’s name or the bus route if they continue to have this problem.

The new ID card design that will be implemented this Fall.
