LA City Council recognizes Sarina Loeb for her LGBTQ advocacy AGUSTIN GARCIA EDITOR-IN-CHIEF t @DAILYSUNDIAL Pride Center’s manager was recognized as the LGBTQ Month honoree by the LA City Council for her LGBTQ advocacy. LA City Councilmen for District 12 Mitchell Englander tweeted that he honored Sarina Loeb because of her dedication to the LGBTQ student organization which strengthens CSUN and the community. “It was unexpected and defiantly an honor to be recognized by the city council,” says Loeb. “And really it affirmed all the great work that the Pride Center does.” Freddie Sanchez, associate director of marketing and programs, said that Loeb was instrumental to the development of the Pride Center. “It has been great listening to her perspective of the needs of the students, of our LGBTQ and our campus community,” Sanchez said. Loeb said that the recognition not only recognizes her work at the Pride Center but the hard work that student leaders have done to advocate over the years. “Their advocacy really has been able to be seen at a city-wide level,” said Loeb. What motivates Loeb to continue to advocate is when these leaders are making a difference in the community and the lives of the students. “So, for me, the education
and advocacy are in hopes that the classroom environment will be more welcoming for our students,” Loeb said. While growing up in the Sacramento Valley, Northridge and then attending CSUN, she said that there were no LGBTQ resources. “I wish that these resources existed when I was a student or when I was growing up in this area,” Loeb said. “That really inspired me to push to provide these ser-
vices. Being able to see that other campus had LGBTQ Centers and other support services [while] there was nothing in the Valley. So that’s really what drives me to do the work that I do.” During her time working at the Pride Center Loeb said that she is proud of the growth of the Center and the services and programs they can provide in a short period of time. She said that in six years, they have been moved to a larger location which now has two professional, full-time staff members. “I’m really proud of the students I work with; they are amazing,” Loeb added. “All the programs and services that we offer is based on student feedback and advocacy. So, we wouldn’t exist without the amazing student leaders that have pushed the Pride Center to
grow and expand over the years.” Before being hired as the manager for the Pride Center, Loeb was hired a year before the opening of the Pride and Veterans Resource Center to develop a framework for both centers. “I am very fortunate that I was on to develop Pride Center and Veterans Resource Center,” said Loeb. “And then I was lucky to be hired full-time to lead the Pride center.” Sanchez said that Loeb is collaborative because she engages with the student body wanting to know what they are feeling or processing and that she is always very centered on student experiences. “She has been able to work with a variety of people on campus to ensure that our students’ needs are being met,” Sanchez said.

MataMoney saves NICK ROSE PHOTOGRAPHER t @DAILYSUNDIAL Many students are familiar with the red signs at the university market and dining registers promoting the MataMoney card, a pre-pay discount card that offers a straight 5 percent discount for use. Fewer might wonder why the university would be compelled to offer such a discount, especially on market products that are already low margin. The answer is: MataMoney saves CSUN cash as well. Betsy Corrigan, director of food services for The University Corporation, explains that many purchases on campus use credit or debit cards for which the university incurs transaction fees on a per swipe basis. With a pool of over 40,000 students, the fees can add up quickly. “That’s the cost of doing business,” Corrigan said. “That’s why the banks do so well.”
Corrigan says that the problem is compounded when the average purchase is less than $4, putting the university in the red on many of those transactions. MataMoney replaced the older A La Card program designed to reduce transaction fees by allowing students to add larger amounts to the proprietary card. MataMoney use bypasses the financial institutions so students can use it for multiple transactions of any amount without creating additional fees for the university. Corrigan said the exact cost savings are difficult to pinpoint with a pool of consumers that tends to fluctuate rapidly, but estimates the program could potentially save the university upwards of $100,000 annually. Those cost savings are also a benefit to the students since they help to keep costs low and that revenue from all TUC markets and dining locations go back to the university according to Corrigan.

Even with the discount program in place, TUC has had some difficulty promoting the program in the past when funds could only be added to the card using only on-campus terminals. Corrigan explained that there were some students who have parents and family supporting them from other areas who would be unable to place funds on
the card directly. TUC responded with a program allowing transfer of funds over the internet, something that has only been available for the last few years. Corrigan said that without the MataMoney card, the banks are the ones profiting most from the student’s purchases. “That doesn’t sit well,” Corrigan said.

Metrolink Station in development CHRISTINE MARTINEZ REPORTER t @DAILYSUNDIAL The Northridge Metrolink Station has been undergoing a potential redevelopment over the past few years with discussion of relocation or enhancement of the existing site. The diversity of CSUN students and the university being primarily a commuter school allows students from all different backgrounds to have a chance to engage with the university at different times according to their schedules. However, the public transit system isn’t always so up to par with these aspects. “Not all stations are created equal,” Francesca Varga, director of Government and Community Relations at CSUN, said. “We didn’t have the transit options we needed for students on campus. We want the students to get involved and the needs that they have expressed were taken to Metro and a kind of perfect synergy worked out as a result.” The relocation of the Metrolink can possibly help increase its usage since the
current station is inconvenient, according to Craig Olwert, undergraduate professor of urban studies and planning. “I just went to a Northridge Vision meeting and they are still meeting with Metro and Metrolink to discuss relocating the station,” Olwert said. “It makes sense especially when planning the new North Valley BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) that is likely to run along major stretches of Nordhoff.” The existing station is located near the intersection of Parthenia Street and Wilbur Avenue. CSUN is one of the main attractions of this stop, servicing a good portion of the 41,000 students that attend the university annually. Even though CSUN shuttles meet at every Metro stop along the Ventura line, the current Northridge stop is 2 miles from the actual campus and is not easily accessible to other connecting lines. The Feasibility Study provides two alternatives: to either relocate the existing stop to the intersection of Reseda Boulevard and Parthenia Street or enhance the existing location.

“One of the key things is that the current location is not multi-module,” Vega said. “It’s not well-lit, not bike friendly.” The relocation option would cater to the everexpanding university as it would reduce the distance between the two locations by a mile. This still may be a strenuous walk for some students and facility, but as Reseda Boulevard is a major bus corridor, it could potentially designate a regular bus service to and from CSUN. Reseda Boulevard is also a bustling hub of businesses, shops and dining areas that would make relocating more enticing not only for the influx of patrons, but for owners of these establishments as well. The Feasibility Study gathered community feedback about this option and approximately 62 percent of participants favored relocation over renovation. However, the option to renovate the existing site is still up for discussion as well.
The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) released a study last summer identifying redevelopment options and its accompanying benefits. Cosmetic and infrastructure upgrades would attract additional riders and implement higher safety standards. This could potentially include a pedestrian tunnel, a new bike hub, upgraded drop-off area, an enhanced station area and platform with more shade and information as well as bike lanes. The input of students is very important to this decision. One way they plan on getting students involved is by distributing surveys at the beginning of the semester. “We are kicking off the North SFV BRT Project this summer and will be holding community meetings for this fall,” David Sotero, Los Angeles Metro communications manager, said. “We hope CSUN students will engage with us on this project.”
