Restrictions of virtual learning during a pandemic

November 24, 2020 by Crystal Andrade 159 Comments

The lack of face-to-face modes of instruction raises concerns about how students will succeed academically. Karen Escalante, an assistant professor for teacher education and foundation at CSUSB, states that the virtual learning environment is different from what she is used to. “There are things that we’re not able to do because we’re not face-to-face, but there are things that we are now able to do in this virtual space that we couldn't if we were face-to-face,” said Escalante. Because of the virtual environment, instructors are now able to invite guest speakers from afar in their classes via Zoom, which wasn’t an opportunity they had before.

Opinion: Alleged suppression of student political opinions in the university

October 27, 2020 by Colin Pedersen 15 Comments

They say educational institutions and universities are places where people can feel free to express themselves in order to create an environment where we can collectively grow and learn to form a better society. However, can students and faculty honestly say that this is the case? Do they feel safe enough and welcomed to express their opinion, regardless of which side they might fall on? In my experience, and from what I have witnessed others experience over the years in college, I would say this is most certainly not the case. Whether it's having your opinion mocked by the professor or having a hostile classroom environment where you know you aren't welcome, I think it is safe to say … [Read more...] about Opinion: Alleged suppression of student political opinions in the university

April 17, 2019 by Yesica Gonzalez 7 Comments

Recently, President Donald Trump has passed a law that he is only willing to give research grants to colleges that promote freedom of speech. Students of CSUSB share their thoughts on this matter of subject. Nataly Ramirez, 4th Year, Communication Studies Major "I think it's important that there are no biases to this. That there's no loophole and that it's actually promoting free speech in a beneficial way, meaning to enforce it equally and not just to his party or to the people he prefers, then I think this is a good idea." Janelle Gonzalez, 1st Year, Sociology Major "I think people should just be allowed to say whatever they feel because that's our first amendment right.

How to: Athletes appetites

November 28, 2016 by Kieron Coleman 112 Comments

By Kieron Coleman |Staff Writer| "Without an adequate amount of carbohydrates and fats in your diet, your muscles will not get the energy they need to perform at optimal levels," according to livestrong.com.
