Let's continue to make the choice to support farmworkers and pressure the administration to act on the choices we make Huy Ong Multicultural Center Pipe ban ridiculous Twice a year, the ASUO Street Faire allows community members to come to the University to sell their crafts and food. Citizen and student groups set up tables to facilitate communication and spread the word about their events. We as students and community members don't need the ASUO bowing to pressure from the administration and treating us like children. We are all adults and can make responsible decisions about our conduct. An arbitrary decision to ban the sale of pipes to curb the consumption of marijuana is futile and ridiculous.
Pipes are popular with collectors, and blowing glass is a respected art form.
Pipes are indicative of substance abuse just as much as beer mugs are. Within the first three hours of the Street Faire, the ASUO and administration continued their moral attack on marijuana by sending the Eugene Police Department to the Cannabis Liberation Society Table to search for marijuana and check IDs of group members. The Street Faire should be a celebration of community and open thoughts and ideas, not a stifling moral witch hunt.
