== Biography ==
=== Education ===
Eugene Cathcart is a student at the (fictional) Portland State University.
In early 2021, he is the president of the newly-formed Men's Rights Interest Group.
He has applied to join the Media Board. His stated agenda is the introduction of a nightly half-hour conservative commentary broadcast, with earmarked student fees.
He is enrolled in the Honor's class taught by Professor McGee.
During the Zoom meeting of the Media Board on Jan 7, 2021, Eugene leaves a message on the call-in line, which is particularly disturbing, with hate speech against Emily and Cage, and a call for lynching them. The call is recorded, and reported to Student Conduct Code for hate speech.
On the evening of Jan 8, 2021, Eugene participates in the Blue Lives Matter picket outside the EWN building. The following morning he is again there with picketers, and states their intention is "to take over EWN". When Emily and Cage start for the front door, Eugene swings at Cage but misses, however the punch connects with Emily. She punches him back with a right hook that knocks him to the ground.
== Physical Appearance ==
Eugene is young, perhaps 20-years-old, about 5'10" and fit, with very short dark brown hair. His body language is aggressive, with shoulders hunched, and hands clenched in fists.
