The smell of espresso wafted out of Kilo D’Cofi on the corner of SW Sixth Ave. and Pine Street while we did cherry pickers, butt kickers and lunges. The 7 p.m. sun glinted off the windows of Big Pink, and Burnside’s evening traffic was at a low hum.

On any given afternoon, North Willamette Boulevard is bustling with families walking their dogs, athletes sprinting through the neighborhoods and students cycling to campus. But, on Aug. 29, a hit-and-run on North Willamette Boulevard occurring less than a mile from campus, highlighted a troubling trend of dangerous driving in Portland and nearby campus streets.
Screaming. That’s mostly what I remember. Screaming and bright lights. A hospital hallway and the harsh smell of disinfectant. A birthing mother screaming so loud it shreds eardrums.

On Sept. 16, Malika Andrews (‘17) walked into The Beacon’s quaint newsroom in St. Mary’s. No longer a student journalist hustling to deliver the latest issue to campus newsstands, Andrews, now 29 and a polished, high-powered ESPN host, took in the room like a time capsule.
I’ve been disabled throughout my entire time at UP, but it wasn’t until this semester that I became a full-time wheelchair user. Most students get around our small campus easily, a max 10-minute walk from one class to another. It’s normal not to think about accessibility, especially when visibly disabled people make up such a small minority of our campus. Back when I walked around this campus, even as a disabled person, only the occasional broken elevator brought access to the forefront of my mind. It’s impossible to know how inaccessible somewhere is, until it’s inaccessible to you.
