Our year in review is here! Thanks to all who submitted, edited, and contributed to making the 2025-2026 year so special.

From small beginnings as an undergraduate journal founder to making waves for major companies like National Geographic and Amazon, Lucy Gubbins’ (UO ‘12) knack for research and excellence all started at the UO.

We chatted with Lucy 14 years later about how the many experiences as a UO student, scholar, and founder paved the way to massive opportunities.
