cSUN faculty protests begin with a picket aNtHoNY caRpIo Daily SunDial

fair contract and salary adjustments brought out a group of CSUN faculty members and a few students for an informational picket Tuesday afternoon. The picket, with about 30 to 35 participants, was organized by the California Faculty Association (CFA), with CSUN chapter president Nate Thomas leading the way. “It’s very simple. The faculty has not been treated with respect and we need a contract,” Thomas said. “We’ve been operating since June 30, 2010, without a contract. We’re operating on the old contract as we try to negotiate a new successor contract. So what we want people to take away is, enough is enough.” Thomas, a CTVA professor at CSUN, said he didn’t want to have the informational picket, but the situation has come to a point where action needs to be taken. “Enough is enough of mismanaging the money. It’s about education of the students and inspiring students,” he said. “It’s about the fair treatment of those who spend their life teaching and inspiring students. It’s about fair treatment and we have not been fairly treated.” The informational picket was only the first phase, with a Nov. 17 strike planned as the major action CFA will take against CSU. Southern CSUs will gather at CSU Dominguez Hills, while northern campuses will convene at CSU East Bay. Both campuses

will be closed for the strike, Thomas said. “I have friends who are adjunct professors at other universities outside of (the CSU system) that are running into the same problems that the Cal State is having,” said Jeff Woodruff, a history major who participated in the march. “In combination with the budget cuts and reduced classes, they’re able to keep these professors at a lower pay rate right now, just due to the economy and that’s not fair. This isn’t the NBA.” Woodruff agreed with the CFA that the issue is about the education of students. “This isn’t about making money. This is about educating the students and the future generation. If we can educate the future generation, they’ll make all the money,” Woodruff said. “We don’t have to worry about that. But unless we invest in that, it’s not going to happen.” Dr. Rob Kent, department chair of urban studies and planning, joined the picket in solidarity with his fellow faculty members. “Many professors at this university struggle mightily financially because of the very low salaries that are paid here,” he said. “Students are often unaware of how poorly paid the professors are, especially parttime faculty.” There was a mixed reaction among students who witnessed the informational picket. “I feel bad for them, but they’re not going to get very many conces-

Funding requests exceed allocations November 9, 2011 • Daily Sundial • CSUN • city@sundial.csun.edu

crowd of student club and organization representatives, and activists flocked to Associated Students Tuesday in hopes of receiving allocations and approval of their organizations. One of the larger groups, Hip Hop Think Tank, was denied additional money for their event, which is scheduled for Nov. 17 and 18, due to a $3,000 cap placed on all clubs and organizations. “I feel that there should be a

lenience towards the amount of dedication and success of this event,” said Noelle Chestnut, one of the many event organizers. Earlier this semester, the group was given $3,000, enough to cover performers and advertising costs. The group is expecting around 1,300 students to attend both the conference and performance portion of the event. The group could have received more funding for their conference with a two-thirds majority vote from the senate, but according to President Amanda Flavin, A.S. usually does not wholly fund events

that charge students an entrance fee “I’m kind of wavering, I understand where they’re coming from about the large number of different clubs and organizations that are currently on this campus,” Chestnut said. Although the cap, established two years ago, applies to clubs and organizations on campus, the same does not apply to events sponsored through A.S. “When Associated Students puts on a program, we aren’t capped to the unit or the dollar figure that clubs and orgs are capped to,” Flavin said.

Tuesday’s senate passed an allocation of $5,000 to fund Recycles Day. This allocation will allow A.S. to pay $3,000 for tents, $990 for tables and chairs, $400 in t-shirts and giveaways, among other costs for the event. According to Director of Finance Anthony Kendryna, Recycles Day is an all-day informational meant to teach students the essentials of recycling. The senate passed another allocation of $9,500 to fund the scholarship and endowment of President Koester. “The scholarship is the asso-

ciated students’ way of honoring President Koester for her 11 years of service to the campus community,” Flavin said. Originally, total A.S. funds for the endowment were set at $22,000. However, an amendment was passed to lower the total allocation. Flavin said she couldn’t give an answer as to why the funds were lowered, adding that it was the board’s decision. All of Tuesday’s allocations were funded through unassigned contingency accounts controlled by A.S. There is currently $41,354 in the account.

I wish there were more students involved, but I thought it was pretty cool. It was loud and it got my attention.”

s if starting college isn’t stressful enough, for years freshman have dreaded gaining 15 pounds their first year away at school. But, according to new studies, that fear is overblown - by about 10 pounds. “It’s been fun to see the articles and documents from legitimate resources on the freshman 15. It’s so common to hear about, they had to address it," said Ellen Bauersfeld, CSUN registered Student Health Center dietitian. Although the freshman 15 may be a mythical scare of the past, weight gain in college can be a reality, Bauersfeld said. “Students often gain four to five to six pounds when they get out of high school,” Bauersfeld said. “A lot of students are used to playing a sport and when they get to college they become more sedentary and change the way they are eating.” CSUN health sciences professor and father of two college students Louis Rubino knows from experience that much of college weight gain has to do with poor choices. “Before students get to college, parents get kids to eat

healthier, but in dorms they have fast food and make easy choices instead of good ones,” Rubino said. “It really gets harder as they grow older. After you turn 40, you are overweight and it’s harder to get it off.” Jeffrey Bailey, CSUN health sciences professor, also said students gain weight in college due to unhealthy choices. “Your diet is heavier in processed foods when you move away from home and it tends to be less expensive than healthier food,” Bailey said. Shabby diets may not be the only contributor, though. College students may be drinking more than they were in high school. “Even though they aren’t supposed to, freshman may be drinking,” Bailey said. “Alcohol is fattening, especially beer, which is cheaper, and this can result in a few extra pounds.” Some CSUN students never worried about gaining weight when they came to college, because they exercise and shop for their own food. “I play soccer on a weekend team every Saturday and exercise two days during the week,” said freshman Louis Gonzalez. “I try not to eat on campus because I don’t like the food and it doesn’t seem healthy.” Bauersfeld’s recommendation for getting into the habit of

eating healthy is to check out the new alternative to the food pyramid called “Choose My Plate,” which advises Americans to eat a quarter plate each of fruits, grains, vegetables and proteins with a small side of dairy. “Eat something an hour to an hour and a half after you wake up, and then have a small meal every three to four hours after that," Bauersfeld said. The Matador Food Court or the University Student Union may not appear to offer the healthiest food options to help students avoid putting on extra weight. “Food is too expensive on campus so I don’t eat here often,” said Marilyn Toledo, a senior liberal studies major. “But when I do eat here, I just eat what I crave.” With students hectic lives, it may seem easier to snatch a bag of chips off the counter than to buy a sandwich or wash and cut up fruit, but the healthy choices are out there. The “campus mimics the greater community; if you are looking for healthy food on campus you can find it,” Bauersfeld said. “It’s about making informed choices.” Bauersfeld, the Student Health Center and the University Corporation collaborated to create a healthy eating guide for students on campus.

Student creates a positive environment for himself and others in community activism and advocacy Joel Paramo contributor

espite the fact that social welfare major Martel Okonji, 22, is up to his neck in homework, he refuses to take a moment to sit down and relax. In his final year at California State University, Northridge, he is active in many organizations on campus, but they’re all inclusive to his major. Okonji has overcome adversity and depression and has blossomed into an active member of the LGBT Alliance, the Queer People of Color Conference, and The LGBTQ Ambassadors. After struggling with his personal identity as an African-American gay man, his life has taken a 180 degree turn, which he credits to the support of his friends and CSUN’s TAKE program. “The thing that drives me the most is smiles,” Okonji said. “I know when I first started school, I was literally not smiling. I was dropping out of everything, it was like shit to me. But I realized how good it felt to smile; how good it feels to laugh. When I

see other people smiling, it just makes me say, ‘wow,’ it does make a difference. It makes me feel good to make someone smile, especially when I’ve had my shitty days.” The outgoing Okonji has not always been so communicative. He moved to Northridge from Upland, a city in San Bernardino County with his former partner for his freshman year of college. After finding out that his partner was cheating on him, Okonji fell into a depression. He was alone and unsure of why he was even attending CSUN. “Let’s just say I was actually failing in life,” Okonji said. “I started to take the easy ways out: alcohol, sex, drugs. I didn’t know anyone and I couldn’t talk to my family about it cause they weren’t okay with me being gay.” It wasn’t until the day Okonji’s friends found him trying to cut himself that an intervention occurred. With help and support from his friends and eventually his family, Okonji began to get involved with groups on campus and started to find his calling. He used the

clubs and organizations as therapy to help him get past the violence he felt. People need to start listening to one another, Okonji said. “Listen to your community, your friends, it will create peace,” he said. “Let words be our peace and violence be our lesson, that’s what I live by.” Okonji is doing his best to listen to his community and not only reaches out to students on campus but students at other colleges and high schools in the area. He is also a part of the leadership council as a cocoordinator for the Peer Health Exchange created to help educate public high school students on relevant health-related information. Members have developed a curriculum for an interactive lecture that they present to students. They teach about pregnancy prevention, rape and sexual assault, sexually transmitted diseases and HIV. Okonji recalls that in high school he didn’t pay attention in sex education class because he figured it was for straight people. “I didn’t know what a condom was until I got to

college,” said Okonji, who feels that the program is much-needed. “I met this one little kid that asked me, ‘When you’re having oral sex, do you use one condom or two?’ and I had to let the kid know that it’s probably always best to only wear one.” The reason Okonji stays active is because he eventually plans to give back to the community around him. “I want to dig deep in community organizing and social reformation,” he said. “I almost feel selfish, because when I make someone else smile it really does make me smile. Like I’m giving to get it back.”

Istanbul Adventures VI: A call to prayer Postcards from abroad With Kat Russel

t was 5:32 a.m. on my first morning in Istanbul when I was awakened by the loud crackle of a speaker. My hotel room was still shrouded in darkness. I rolled over, assuming what I had heard must have been the rickety air-conditioner, and invited sleep to return. Moments later the speaker crackled again, this time followed by a voice. It started as a low wail, which escaped through the speaker in a short burst. Almost immediately it started again, this time longer, building in volume and momentum as it climbed higher and higher up the scale of notes until it reached a high pitched cry. I sat up in my bed confused, startled, and more confused as the voice continued to wail its slow, drawn out song, on a roller coaster of notes and pitches, which lasted for approximately six or seven minutes before it ended with another crackle of the speaker, leaving me in silence again. Unbeknownst to me, in the wee hours of that morning, I was to become extremely familiar with that “song” as I would hear it five times a day for the next two months. What started as a rude interruption to my sleep would become one of the characteristics of Istanbul that I loved the most. Turkey is home to a predominantly Muslim population – approximately 99 percent and Istanbul is Turkey’s largest and most populated city – home to more than 13.2 million people. Much like the rest of Turkey, Istanbul’s population is predominantly Muslim. There are approximately 3,000 active mosques throughout the city, their minarets piercing the skyline as they rise from every neighborhood and district. I later learned the “song” I had heard my first morning was actually a call to prayer, which is sung in each mosque and broadcast from speakers mounted on to their minarets. Five times a day this call rings out from the minarets of each mosque throughout the city, calling Muslims to the mosque for prayer. Each call to prayer is unique

to the mosque and to the muezzin who sings it. The verses being sung say, “God is great. I bear witness that there is no God except the one God. I bear witness that Muhammad is God’s messenger. Come to Prayer. God is Great. There is no God except the one God.” From where I lived in Besiktas, I could hear the calls of three different mosques. At first, it seemed strange, but during my time in Istanbul, I came

to look forward to hearing them ring out across the city. Each call became a moment for me to pause, place my hand over my heart, and take a moment to relish in the beauty of its simple display of devotion. Coming to Istanbul from a country where the opinions of Islam are often negative and grossly misinformed, I must admit that I was wary at first. All I had ever heard of Islam was negativity, stereotypes and violence. What I found is, Istanbul was nothing like what I expected. I found people who were deeply devoted to their faith and deeply rooted in centuries old traditions. I found a younger generation that struggled against the constraints of those old traditions to be their own modern selves. But most of all, I found a new perspective and a deep-

rooted respect for the traditions and the spiritual principles present in the Islamic faith. Istanbul opened my eyes to a world I had never known and had, admittedly, misjudged. My heart was opened and my perception was changed. The calls to prayer became reminders for me of how blessed I was to be in Istanbul and how privileged I was to be able to have the experiences I was having while I was there.

Question of the Day Joelle Katz / Daily Sundial

Do you think designer brands partnering with cheap brands brings down their value? Versace announced over the summer they will be partnering with H&M, while Vera Wang and Kohl’s have a partnership, as well. Various stores, such as Wal-Mart, have been known to also carry designer names, offering customers luxury clothing at an affordable price. Does selling these high-end brand names at these stores decrease the value of the brand, or is it just a way to offer their name to a diverse social class?

Joe Frazier's legacy just as important as Ali's andrew lopez online editor

oxing great Joe Frazier died Monday night of liver cancer at age 67. It’s likely the general public will remember him best as the fighter on the losing end in two of three fights against Muhammad Ali, including “The Fight of the Century” and the brutal classic “Thrilla in Manila.” And though that’s enough for the casual observer to think Ali was the superior fighter, those who examine the sport closely will tell you neither of their legacies will ever be better than the other. Frazier was, and will always be, one of the greatest fighters to ever step in the ring. Still, though they are permanently linked in history, it’s Ali whose star shines the brightest. Charismatic, charming and loud, Ali was everything Frazier was not. All attention was paid to Ali’s pre-fight poems predicting knockouts of his opponents, personal attacks of their character and his handsome looks. To both the media and fans alike, Frazier had little to counter with. In reality, the only thing that mattered was what happened inside the ring, where none of the mental tactics Ali employed made a difference. It was in their fights that Frazier’s upbringing and personality showed most.

Born to a sharecropper in South Carolina on Jan. 12, 1944, Frazier lived his life on a farm, picking cotton and working as a farmhand. Frazier was a blue-collar worker, growing up the youngest of 12 children. His upbringing translated to his workman style of fighting. Frazier was a classic brawler, constantly moving forward, applying pressure to his opponents until they became fatigued. His work rate was amazing to behold as he never relented in even the most grueling of fights. When Frazier and Ali finally met after years of anticipation on March 8, 1971, the crowd at Madison Square Garden in New York was electric. Dubbed “The Fight of the Century,” the two boxers, undefeated at the time, battled back and forth for 15 rounds of highly competitive warfare. Where Ali was tall, smooth and agile, Frazier was short, rugged and brutish. There was no flash to Frazier’s style, and it proved to be an effective antidote to Ali’s effortlessly athletic movement in the ring. The first half of the fight proved to be the most divisive for the smaller Frazier, who was regularly caught by the long jabs of Ali while trying to get up close. Over the second half though, Frazier’s nonstop pressure proved to be the difference as Ali began to slow down dramatically, succumbing to the vicious hooks thrown to both his body and head.

In round 11, it looked all but over when Frazier backed Ali into a corner and unloaded a blistering left hook. Ali stumbled around the ring for several more rounds as Frazier continued to batter him, never looking back as he cruised to a unanimous decision victory, punctuated by a leaping left hook that knocked Ali down for only the third time in his career. The fight would signify the first loss in Ali’s career, and the beginning of a classic trilogy of bouts, most notably the “Thrilla in Manila” in 1975 in the Philippines. In it, both fighters suffered through exhausting heat rumored to have reached near 120 degrees inside the ring. The bout lasted 14 brutal rounds before Frazier’s trainer, Eddie Futch, decided to stop it after seeing his fighter hit repeatedly by right hands on a grotesquely swollen left eye. Though exhausted, Frazier was furious with his corner for stopping the fight. And therein lies the greatness of Frazier. Beaten, battered and in danger of dying if he had gone out for the 15th and final round, the job wasn’t done, so neither was Frazier. In a time where athletes are spoiled and overpaid, Frazier embodied everything that is good about sports. His legacy will forever be that of a worker, inside the ring and out.
