[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I moved to Eugene from DC about two years ago, and I am happy to answer any questions people might have. [/quote]

Cool! I have a few questions. Generally speaking, what types of kids go there and what are some of the most popular activities or student clubs? Is there a big Greek scene or bar culture? [/quote]

I’m so sorry. I meant I’d be happy to answer questions about Eugene itself.

That said, sports are obviously huge and the Ducks are like a cult. There are lots of locals/local-ish kids who go to UO, and then lots of kids from CA, so it doesn’t feel incredibly diverse from what I’ve seen. I think the intelligence level of the students varies but there are definitely some smart kids there, and some honors opportunities. It’s seems like a reasonably substantial Greek scene but I think non-Greek students have plenty of opportunities for fun. There seem to be plenty of clubs from all the flyers I see on campus. Sorry I can’t be much help re: the school. [/quote]

Unlike anywhere on the East Coast, you will encounter lots of kids at U of O from CA, Hawaii, Washington, a few from Alaska, etc.  there are also real Native Americans there.

Probably the largest international group on campus are Norwegians.[/quote]
