President Dave Frohnmayer occasionally travels to Asia and stopped last year in Taipei, where the UO has its second largest international alumni association. In an interview with the Taiwan News, the president discussed the intercontinental connections that become established on the Eugene campus: Its especially important when the world is as troubled as it is right now that people have some sense of bridges and friendships across continents... I am amazed when I hear some American universities saying they are proud that they have 140 students from some place else. I say, We have 1,400!
