Memory: I have had many memorable experiences at the UO. One that immediately comes to mind is while employed in the International Services office -(that was the department name back then). Driving a van full of international students to visit Crater Lake. It was their first time there as well as mine. They had so many questions about Oregon and were very curious about what Crater Lake was like. I just loved their excitement! Many lifelong friendships were formed during that trip.
