A track coach. A waffle iron. An idea that helped change how the world runs. At Oregon, challenging convention has always been part of the story. Today, that instinct is opening new possibilities for human health. Ducks are studying how the body performs and recovers through the Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance. At the Ballmer Institute, they’re preparing a new kind of provider through the nation’s first undergraduate degree in child behavioral health. Different challenges. The same Oregon impulse: see what could be better, then help build it. #WeAreHere #GoDucks

For 150 years, the University of Oregon has been shaped by people willing to imagine what comes next. From its beginnings in Eugene in 1876 to its emergence as a leading public research university, Oregon’s story is one of discovery, creativity, resilience, and an enduring commitment to serving the state and the world. Look back at the moments, people, and ideas that have shaped the University of Oregon—and the legacy that continues to move us forward.

A class project you can put on your résumé. And someone else’s coffee table. UO students create Ascend sports magazine from the first pitch to the final page. Here’s what goes into it 🔗 bit.ly/4zue4pA

Daniel Pimentel studies virtual reality to try to make this reality better. Through his leadership of Snap AR Scholars and recognition as a 2025 Augmented World Expo Rising Star, he’s shaping how immersive media like 360-degree video can be used for public good, like wildlife conservation. He’s one of 150 Ducks — and counting — who has left their mark over the UO’s 150 years.

A former professional runner, Justin Gallegos made history as a record-breaking distance runner while competing with cerebral palsy, challenging expectations and helping expand perceptions of what is possible in the sport. His experience as a student-athlete and professional runner helped shape a career grounded in leadership, advocacy, and perseverance. Today, he brings that unstoppable spirit to marketing at a Fortune 500 company.

For 150 years, the University of Oregon has been shaped by people willing to ask what’s next—and bold enough to pursue it. As we celebrate our 150th anniversary, we honor the generations of Ducks who built what came before and look ahead to the discoveries, ideas, and possibilities still to come. This is 150 years of Oregon. And we’re just getting started.

To mark 150 years, we’re spotlighting 150+ unstoppable Ducks, starting with disability activist and MacArthur Fellow Susan Sygall. She still leads the disability rights organization, Mobility International USA, or MIUSA, that she cofounded 45 years ago as a graduate student. The organization has improved the lives of thousands of people with disabilities worldwide. “MIUSA is a tribute to what students can do,” Sygall says. Read her story 🔗 bit.ly/4dOuMrl
