In early November 2009 the Oregon Commentator published By the Barrel: 25 Years of the Oregon Commentator. The book was edited by Timothy Dane Carbaugh and produced by Guy Simmons. It served as a culmination and celebration of the publication's 25th year at the University of Oregon. The book contains three sections:
- the Commentator's history.
- nine of the most important moments in Commentator history including de-fundings, vandalism and cries of racism.
- ten essays written by Commentator alumni, including a foreword, as memoriams for the 25th Anniversary.

Famous quotes containing the words years and/or oregon:
“One of the most difficult aspects of being a parent during the middle years is feeling powerless to protect our children from hurt. However “growthful” it may be for them to experience failure, disappointment and rejection, it is nearly impossible to maintain an intellectual perspective when our sobbing child or rageful child comes in to us for help. . . . We can’t turn the hurt around by kissing the sore spot to make it better. We are no longer the all-powerful parent.”
—Ruth Davidson Bell (20th century)
“In another year I’ll have enough money saved. Then I’m gonna go back to my hometown in Oregon and I’m gonna build a house for my mother and myself. And join the country club and take up golf. And I’ll meet the proper man with the proper position. And I’ll make a proper wife who can run a proper home and raise proper children. And I’ll be happy, because when you’re proper, you’re safe.”
—Daniel Taradash (b. 1913)
