May 3, 2014 by Archived posts 158 Comments

By Stephanie Para |Staff Writer| Two CSUSB students who were struggling academically at the university last quarter have turned their educational careers around, earning $500 in scholarship money. Sociology major Asia Wilson, and liberal studies major Sandra Saldivar, were awarded the Dianna Pelletier Scholarship last Winter quarter, a financial award that is given as an incentive for students on academic probation. Dianna Pelletier, the scholarship’s namesake, was a CSUSB staff member who dedicated her life to advising and helping students in need.

February 13, 2014 by Archived posts 159 Comments

By Daniel DeMarco |Assistant Features Editor| Academic probation often leads to academic failure.

CFA should vote to authorize strike

April 21, 2012 by Archived posts

By Aunjolay Lambert |Staff Writer| Knowing that the strike is so close to becoming reality makes me feel uneasy, but I do think CSU faculty should vote to strike. The faculty and staff are the heart and soul of the CSU campuses and without them it would be next to impossible to run CSU universities. Why aren’t their needs being met? Increasing student fees, tuition and denying faculty members a pay raise while the CSU Chancellor is approved a salary “supplement” is not what most students and faculty members want to hear. The California Faculty Association (CFA) is the union that represents 24,000 CSU employees who will either approve or decline a sequence of strikes which could … [Read more...] about CFA should vote to authorize strike
