Living on campus during the pandemic

March 1, 2022 by Celeste Santarrosa 42 Comments

By Celeste Santarrosa and Aylin Estrada As many schools closed dorms to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus, CSUSB finally granted access to their dorms once again for the academic year 2021–2022. While the coronavirus is still a high risk, for some students, living on campus is their safest option. Prior to the coronavirus outbreak, campus was a place where we could chart our course for the future. It was constantly buzzing with energy where students could have the presence of friends, obtain major opportunities, and attend on-campus events. Now, the campus is an almost empty place, but for some students, the campus is essential. Three CSUSB students share their experience of … [Read more...] about Living on campus during the pandemic

Apples & oranges: College expectations

November 29, 2014 by Archived posts 2 Comments

By Ivanna Carlos |Staff Writer| We all come in as freshmen with different expectations, but a few keep popping up on everyone’s list: more freedom, more partying, more work, and interactions with romantic partners. Does the reality of college live up to the myth? “Yes my expectations definitely have been met. As a freshman I joined a fraternity so with these four years in my fraternity I got everything out of my college experience,” said student Raymond Aguirre. “I feel social media gives people the idea that college is just one big party and movies rarely portray the anxiety and the stress a college student really has to experience throughout the four years of stay,” continued … [Read more...] about Apples & oranges: College expectations

A New Yorker in Cali: Dorm Life

January 31, 2013 by Archived posts 3 Comments

By Angelice Romero |Staff Writer| I feel that the most important part of transitioning as an exchange student is decorating your dorm. Living in the dorms for the first time, I've noticed that these rooms are so bare. I felt like the four white walls were talking to me. For my first week, I had absolutely nothing in my room; it was so painfully bare that I felt like it wasn't really mine. At first I started simple, putting color hooks on my walls, hanging stuff on it and then gradually adding posters and knick-knacks. I had a conversation with my roommates about decorating our rooms and making it feel more like home and we came to a conclusion that these walls were just … [Read more...] about A New Yorker in Cali: Dorm Life

January 25, 2013 by Archived posts 4 Comments

By Jounghun Kim |Staff Writer| Living on or off campus can drastically change your college experience. There is no set answer to which is better. Here are some pros and cons to living on campus. First, it is easy to make connections with people in your housing environment. You can make friends and get closer much easier. Second, it is physically closer to campus than an off-campus apartment. You don’t have to waste time fighting traffic and hunting for parking spaces before class. You can sleep longer and you save a lot of money on gas. Third, you don’t have to worry about any hidden costs. Through the room and board costs you do not have to be concerned with utility and … [Read more...] about Students give the pros and cons of dorm life
