Environmental Resilience
At the 澳门四不像论坛, green is more than just a color that鈥檚 worn by our Ducks. Green pays tribute to the flourishing landscape that surrounds us. Green vitalizes our campus community, connects us to the greater world, and gives purpose to our shared sense of discovery.
Addressing climate change is a big part of the UO mission鈥攂uilding off of a long legacy of protecting our environment.

We鈥檙e continuously exploring new approaches for environmentally informed entrepreneurship, law and policy, communications, applied science, and education.
We live, work, and learn in the Pacific Northwest鈥攐ne of the most beautiful places on earth鈥攁nd that informs everything we do. We are committed to our community. We believe that higher education plays a direct role in creating a more just and livable future for all.
