CSUSB officials and students comment on campus closures

November 9, 2019 by Yera Nanan Leave a Comment

By Yera Nanan, Avery Robinson, Fatima Gomez, and Graciela Ramirez A day off from college courses is typically a day well received, but not when it involves dangerous winds and power outages. This quarter campus was shut down for a total of five days due to high wind alerts and power shut down by Southern California Edison for preventing wildfires. This campus is no stranger to high winds and potential fire scares, but what is new is the authority that Southern California Edison has to shut down electricity if need be. Associate Vice President for Facilities Planning and Management, Jennifer Sorenson, is one of the first recipients to the news of a power outage from Edison. “We … [Read more...] about CSUSB officials and students comment on campus closures

New study shows black carbon crosses placenta to fetus

October 23, 2019 by Linda White Leave a Comment

Recent research has confirmed that toxic air pollution is affecting all of us – from the top of our heads to the tips of our toes, but black carbon (BC) has been found to have crossed the placental wall of pregnant mothers, which affects the fetus at its earliest stage of life. When CSUSB student, Mallory Bedney, heard about the impact of pollution on pregnant women she said, "I was shocked, as I’m quite concerned for the future of our air quality and climate. I can see the toll it has taken on our health, and the fact that people may be born with health issues due to pollution and poor air quality is a real and legitimate concern.” This discovery was in a study which was done in … [Read more...] about New study shows black carbon crosses placenta to fetus

On May 14, a ceremony was held on the lawn in front of the John M. Pfau Library for Armed Forces Day. This also started the annual yellow ribbon campaign at CSUSB, where several organizations and clubs decorate trees across campus to honor military members.

Mitla Cafe: the taco that started it all

May 22, 2019 by Irma Martinez Leave a Comment

If you're a local, chances are you have eaten here or even drove by without knowing the impact this restaurant has contributed to Mexican-American cuisine not just in the states but globally. Mitla Cafe opened its doors in San Bernardino 1937 and little did the owner Lucia Rodriguez and Vicente Montaño know that their success would "help" another company reach a network of $10 billion. It is not so much help but being cheated out of. Mitla is known for their fried corn tortilla tacos with ground beef, shredded lettuce and cheese, topped off with diced tomatoes. Sound familiar? Well, that's because it is. That fried taco that helped Mitla Cafe generate business is now one of Taco Bell's … [Read more...] about Mitla Cafe: the taco that started it all

Resources offered to veterans at CSUSB

May 8, 2019 by Isaias Cabrera Leave a Comment

For veterans using the GI Bill, the success center can be one of their first stops, but for many, it’s also their last time there. Besides providing these students with free test taking materials, computers, free printing, and a library of textbooks to borrow, the Veteran Success Center also provides tutoring and academic advising, as well events throughout the year memorializing military history. The transition from service into college can be a very stressful time and is exactly what the center aims to ease. This year, the success center is putting on a three-part seminar series on professional development. The second of these seminars is on April 30th. Agustin Ramirez is a … [Read more...] about Resources offered to veterans at CSUSB

San Bernardino’s Hidden Gem

May 1, 2019 by Irma Martinez 7 Comments

Growing up in San Bernardino, I have heard a lot of remarks about how bad the city is. I have heard it all: it not being nice enough or it is too dangerous. However, most are snooty remarks from outsiders. I never understood the amount of hate San Bernardino received. I was too busy understanding the city's potential. As I have gotten older, my admiration for this city grows even more. I began a journey to get to know this city better. My journey began at the San Bernardino History and Railroad Museum. Down Mount Vernon and W 5th St, there is the giant smokestack with Santa Fe written down the pole. I must have driven past it thousands of times and never gave it a second thought. As I … [Read more...] about San Bernardino’s Hidden Gem

44 years later, the Vietnam War still haunts veterans

May 1, 2019 by Isaias Cabrera Leave a Comment

April 30, marks the 44 year anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War. An unpleasant time to be a soldier. In 1955, President Eisenhower committed US support to South Vietnam. Beginning a war that today stands as the second longest that required American combat forces. The first being the ongoing conflict in Afghanistan. During this war that spanned two decades, over 58,000 American soldier’s lives were lost. On the other side, nearly 2 million Vietnamese perished. Another 12 million became refugees. Tom Eberhardt served in the Navy from 1967 through 1970 and served in Vietnam. Still visibly upset, he remembers his time in basic training vividly. He recalls a commander that on … [Read more...] about 44 years later, the Vietnam War still haunts veterans
