Opinion: Benefits to wearing masks

November 24, 2020 by Kayley Serrano Leave a Comment

As COVID-19 cases continue to rise in the United States, we are continuing to adapt to our new normal to further slow the spread of the virus. California Governor Gavin Newsom re-initiated curfew hours for many counties that forbids get-togethers from 10 p.m. until 5 a.m. Continuing to stay 6-feet apart, avoid large gatherings, sanitize all our surroundings, and wear face masks are still highly encouraged to practice. However, many Americans are becoming selfish and refusing to wear face masks because they do not believe they are beneficial. Wearing a face mask or any sort of cloth covering the nose and mouth is proven to prevent those who are infected with the virus and reduce the spread … [Read more...] about Opinion: Benefits to wearing masks

May 20, 2020 by Zuleima De La Cruz Leave a Comment

Many Americans’ concerns are rising now that California is starting to reopen in stages. While several Riverside County residents feel like it's too soon and unsafe to start reopening, others think it’s appropriate as long as it's handled with caution. Restaurants are slowly planning to re-open with restrictions, but employees fear for their safety. IHOP is planning to re-open to the public on June 1 in Menifee, California. Sara Denali, a server at the IHOP in Menifee, states that she still fears her job to re-open and get her kids sick with all the people she’s in contact with during her shift. “I still feel unsafe to start work again. I am a server and have the most contact … [Read more...] about Businesses slowly reopen in California

Faculty Senate meeting addresses power outage

November 13, 2019 by Sydney Fregozo Leave a Comment

On October 29, the Faculty Senate held a meeting that discussed the concerns and issues about the power shutoffs. The President was not present in this meeting, but one concern was whether or not the campus would receive generators to generate power during power shutoffs. Solar power was brought up as a potential solution to future power shutoffs, but that notion was dismissed due to solar power being tied to the grid that SoCal Edison controls. Furthermore, solar power would not be enough to support a building. The Senate promoted visiting the Internet to receive updates in regards to emergencies. When decisions are made regarding the campus, Blackboard is used to send out texts … [Read more...] about Faculty Senate meeting addresses power outage

Student safety in the wake of armed robbery and theater scare

May 1, 2019 by Adrian Valdivia Leave a Comment

Safety here has become a major talking point at CSUSB, especially after an attempted armed robbery occurred on campus on April 9, in parking lot C. Not only that, but on April 22 a man who was under the influence of a controlled substance was arrested for disrupting a rehearsal in the theater of the Performing Arts building. His bizarre behavior and unusual posturing led witnesses to believe he was possibly armed with a weapon. Nobody was harmed in either situation according to the University Police Department (UPD). However, looking back at these incidents brings up questions: how safe do students feel at CSUSB and what would students like to see improve among … [Read more...] about Student safety in the wake of armed robbery and theater scare

Coyotes on the rise

November 6, 2018 by Yesica Gonzalez 4 Comments

The increase of coyote sighting induces panic, a concern of safety for families and pets. According to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, there has been a rise to 50 reports of which a coyote bit a person in Southern California between August 2012 and August 2016. Professor Cindy Chrisler of CSUSB is an animal health technician, shares her thoughts on why the number of coyotes keeps expanding in the Inland Empire. Other reasons are due to the plentiful food supply that humans offer outside of their home. When it comes to the large garbage bins, make sure to keep them securely closed so it won't open just in case if it is tipped over. Not only is trash on … [Read more...] about Coyotes on the rise

Death by airbag

October 31, 2016 by Tricia Kang Leave a Comment

By Tricia Kang |Staff Writer| At least 16 deaths are now linked to the defect in Honda and Acura safety features of air bags deploying. Resulting in the recall of nearly 100 million air bags worldwide by more than a dozen automakers around the world and as close as Riverside County. As of last month, 11 people have died and more than 100 have been injured due to the malfunction. The airbags in a car collision are known to explode on impact. Instead of modifying the impact of the crash, these recalled airbags contain a propellant that causes them to inflate in a crash but when exposed with high impact can blow apart a metal canister or debris bursting towards the driver or … [Read more...] about Death by airbag
