SB676 awaiting signature

The California State Assembly passed a bill that redefines the meaning of marijuana

Dead Sea Scrolls come alive

JAMES BEAN Daily Titan

A new bill allowing the growth of hemp for industrial purposes in California has been passed by members of the California State Assembly, including state Assemblyman Chris Norby.

The bill, SB 676, was then sent to Sacramento where it still awaits Gov. Jerry Brown’s signature. According to Field Representative Carolyn Kaiser, the governor still has the ability to veto it at this time.

The bill, titled the California Industrial Hemp Farming Act, will “revise the definition of ‘marijuana’ so that the term would exclude industrial hemp.” By industrial hemp, the bill specifically refers to cannabis products such as rope, paper and oil.

While this isn’t the first time that an industrial hemp bill has been proposed, committees and assemblies have had such strong support for a bill that moves to decriminalize any part of the plant. In the most recent vote on the floor of the California Senate, 26 ayes conquered the 13 nays and one abstained vote.

Among those who voted “aye” was Norby.

“Our assemblyman voted ‘yea’ on the bill because he supports any business that helps with jobs in the USA,” said Senior Field Representative Craig Green.

The bill would effectively employ farmers and production workers across California. To make sure that consumers don’t try to get high smoking rope, manufactured products would have to undergo a number of tests to ensure that the amount of Tetrahydracannabinol (or THC, the psychoactive element in cannabis that makes people high) would be under three-tenths of 1 percent.

After the lengthy testing process, all parts of the plant except the THC-filled flower, will go on to become rope, paper and even some things that aren’t expected.

“They have hemp milk too,” said student Spencer Gower. “It’s supposed to be way healthier than soy milk. Apparently it’s full of omega 3’s and omega 6’s. It tastes pretty good too.”

Aside from the jobs that would be introduced, hemp may prove to be more environmentally friendly than previous wood-based materials.

ALVIN KIM / Daily Titan An exhibit was held Tuesday showcasing a replica of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Lectures about the scrolls were presented by George Giacumakis, emeritus director of CSUF’s Irvine Campus; James Rietveld, a lecturer of comparative religion and history at CSUF; Scott Moffatt, CSUF alumnus and senior pastor of Legacy Church; and Benjamin Hubbard, emeritus professor of comparative religion.

Comparative Religion Department hosts exhibit SEAN VIELE Daily Titan

An exhibit at Cal State Fullerton Tuesday featuring a series of lectures on the Dead Sea Scrolls covered topics from the historical context to the politics behind the scrolls.

The lectures and a detailed replica of the Great Isaiah Scroll attracted students and visi-

tors from the Fullerton community.

The Comparative Religion Department began planning for the exhibit last year but were unable to secure funding until this semester, said Paul Levesque, department chair and associate professor of the Comparative Religion Department.

Levesque said the long-awaited exhibit was a success.

“We’ve had a lot of alumni here today, a lot of people from the community, so we’ve been thrilled about that,” said Levesque.

The seven Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered in 1947 in caves near Qumran, Israel. The Scrolls hold biblical text from all the books of the Old Testament with exception to the book of Ester.

Found by Bedouin shepherds, the original Isaiah Scroll was penned more than 2,100 years ago.

The replica of the Isaiah Scroll that was on display is 23.5 feet long and is made of 17 pieces of parchment sewn together.

George Giacumakis, emeritus director of CSUF’s Irvine Campus, began the lecture by

speaking about the historical context of scrolls.

James Rietveld, a lecturer of comparative religion and history at CSUF, compared the messianic message in the Isaiah Scroll to the message given in the gospel of John in the New Testament.

CSUF alumnus Scott Moffatt, senior pastor of Legacy Church, spoke about the historical context of the scroll.

New social networking site launched Cal State Fullerton alumnus creates a site that he hopes will be the next big Facebook STEVEN YUAN Daily Titan

Serge Bronstein, a Cal State Fullerton alumnus, is the creator of a new social networking website called Inspyte.

Inspyte gives users the basic functionality of uploading photos, commenting on and liking photos and posts, chatting online, creating groups and creating events. Users can also browse other members’ information.

Prior to Inspyte, Bronstein had founded CBCJobs.com in 2007, a site created to connect employers and job hunters. Bronstein saw an opportunity to add social networking functionality on a site where people typically just uploaded a résumé to apply for a job.

Founded in January 2011, Bronstein’s network of friends helped him beta test the site until it went live Sept.

26. In an effort to keep it simple, the

site was created out of Bronstein’s frustration with the increasing complexities of today’s social networking sites– hence the name Inspyte, which is a purposeful misspelling of “in spite.”

“The site has an intuitive interface and users will feel very comfortable with it from the very start,” said Bronstein.

An avid social networker, Bronstein has been a user of MySpace and Facebook and considers Facebook and Google+ to be direct competitors.

Ousting Facebook from the social networking market will be no easy task, however, as there are around 800 million active users, a statistic revealed at Facebook’s recent F8 conference in San Francisco.

People have transitioned from their use of MySpace to Facebook–can Inspyte be the next big network?

Neil Granitz, a CSUF professor of marketing, said users leaving Facebook would be a large switching cost, as they have already invested time and effort creating their profile, connections and pictures.

“At this point, a direct competitor to Facebook has a long way to go.

They would have to identify a target and a need that is not being met by Facebook and then deliver. Facebook’s sustainable competitive advantage is its established network of users, its relationships with advertisers and devel-

Titan men’s soccer falls to UC Irvine CSUF soccer now 0-2 in Big West Conference play after stellar nonleague start to the season RICK GOMEZ Daily Titan

AARON GILLIAM / Daily Titan Senior defender Nate Fischer collects the ball Wednesday against UC Irvine. The Titans lost 2-1 to the Anteaters at Titan Stadium.

Contact Us at dtnewsdesk@gmail.com

The only opponent the Cal State Fullerton’s soccer team lost to Wednesday night was itself, Head Coach Bob Ammann believed.

The Titans allowed a routine shot to go in and had a set-piece go wrong in the second half in its 2-1 loss to No. 7-ranked UC Irvine Wednesday night at Titan Stadium.

They were without leading scorer senior Kevin Venegas, who was out after being issued two yellow cards in the game Saturday against Cal State Northridge, but Ammann felt he had enough players who could fill in the void.

“I didn’t think we got beat by a better team. I think we got beat by ourselves.

Would (Venegas) have helped us tonight?

Absolutely,” said Ammann.

“We just had two breakdowns. Those types of things change the rhythm of the game and the confidence of the players,” Ammann said.

The Titans lost their second consecutive game and have dropped to 0-2 in the Big West Conference.

“We have eight more games to play. Two games don’t bother us. We knew we weren’t going 10-0,” said senior CSUF goalkeeper Trevor Whiddon.

The Titans will now have to travel to No. 19 UC Santa Barbara, who is coming off a big overtime win against No. 3 Akron, Tuesday.

The Titans and the Gauchos remain the only two teams without conference wins. CSUF will be off this weekend while UCSB will travel to UC Davis for the game Saturday.

Off Campus: Fullerton Market Beer and wine, fresh produce, hot food, craft vendors and children’s activities are available from 4 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Downtown Plaza on Wilshire Avenue between Harbor Boulevard and Pomona Avenue.

For the Record: A sentence in the article “Speaking despite protest” of the Wednesday issue incorrectly stated students could attend an OCNYC Networking Event Thursday for free with a valid school ID. However, students, along with the public, can attend the event for $10.

The Food Advisory Committee, just one of the committees managed

by Titan Student Centers Governing Board, met Wednesday in the Titan Student Union Legislative Chamber to discuss matters of food service business across the campus, changes taking place within the businesses and customer satisfaction.

The meeting was led by newly elected Food Advisory Committee Chair Andrew Brown, whose experience in the food industry equipped him for the position. Brown brought a new business topic to the agenda as an open forum to discuss ways in which to improve customer satisfaction in general and in each location from TSU restaurants to university convenience stores.

“I have worked in places like InN-Out and the Gastronome, and one thing I have noticed that is very important is customer satisfaction because people will tend to come back if they’ve had a good experience,” said Brown, 21, a history major.

Tony Lynch, director of campus dining services, was there among the attendees and spoke about food services use of online surveys, including the Survey Monkey where people can rate their experiences at the different services on campus.

On an ongoing basis Togo’s has an online survey where students who par-

ticipate are actually contacted back to address the issue. Starbucks also has an online survey, which has promotional benefits, like a cup of coffee, for participating. In Starbucks at Steven G. Mihaylo Hall, they are particularly required to receive 10 to 15 responses a month, but they receive about 100.

“We do have a lot of stuff going on (many different surveys) to make sure students are coming first and are able to have the best kind of experience at our different kinds of food services,” Brown said.

Along with the businesses that are thriving like Panda Express, the committee discussed businesses that are struggling.

Juice-it up Frozen Yogurt was reported to be struggling, according to Tony Lynch. The fundamental problem is its location, which is the second floor of the bookstore. Locations not on the main level always struggle, he said. The possibility of moving it to another location is not an option due to the $300,000 put into the infrastructure alone. It has been losing money every month. Ways in which to improve the business were discussed, from fundraising, to marketing, to possibly having it open during the summer.

“We bring in students that are interested in food so they can bring in their opinions. Andrew is really trying to revolutionize customer satisfaction.

After all, students are, what, a bulk of

MARK SAMALA / Daily Titan Steve Jobs, co-founder and former CEO of Apple, died Wednesday. The announcement came just one day after Apple announced the fall release of the new iPhone.

The co-founder and former CEO of Apple, Steve Jobs, passed away Wednesday, according to an Apple announcement. He was 56.

Jobs was known as a technological innovator who co-founded Apple in 1976. He left the company in 1985 and returned again in 1996. While working at Apple, Jobs played a key role in the design, implementation and development of several tech gadgets, including the iPod, iPhone and iPad. Apple didn’t identify the cause of death in its announcement.

“Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being,” the company said on its website. “Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.”

In 2004, Jobs announced he had been diagnosed with a tumor in his

pancreas and subsequently received treatment. Later in 2009, he received a liver transplant. On Aug. 24, 2011, Jobs announced his resignation as CEO of Apple.

“I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know,” he said in his resignation letter. “Unfortunately, that day has come.”

The announcement of Jobs’ death came just one day after Apple announced the fall release of the new iPhone.

CSUF to show ‘Harvest of Loneliness’

Producer of ‘Harvest of Loneliness’ to speak at Cal State Fullerton Monday NURAN ALTEIR Daily Titan

A screening of Harvest of Loneliness, a film about the Bracero Program and what happened after it ended, will be held at Cal State Fullerton Monday as a part of CSUF’s Hispanic Heritage Month celebration. A discussion with a co-director will take place after the screening.

“This film and discussion are designed to en-

hance understanding of Chicano history and awareness of Chicano-Latino experience and culture,” said Nancy Page Fernandez, Ph.D., director of Freshman Programs.

The event is geared toward students in Freshman Programs and Chicano studies classes, she said, as well as to Chicano-Latino faculty and staff members.

“I think all students need to be culturally literate and to understand the rich and complex history of our diverse world,” Fernandez said.

Harvest of Loneliness was co-directed by Gilbert Gonzalez, a professor emeritus of Chicano studies at UC Irvine, and Vivian Price, professor of interdisciplinary studies and coordinator of the labor studies program at Cal State Dominguez Hills.

The film features men speaking about their experiences in the Bracero Program. The program, which began in 1942, was a series of laws and diplomatic agreements for the importation of temporary contract laborers from Mexico to the United States.

Gonzalez, the producer, said he wants people who watch the movie “to learn about a major labor program that was managed by the state (federal government) for the largest agriculture interests in the world.”

Men continued to come after the program ended in 1964, Gonzalez added, which resulted in a rise of illegal immigrants in the United States.

Harvest also features the families those men left behind.

“I found the personal statements to be very powerful, and I liked the way the film addresses the men as well as the families they had to leave behind,” Fernandez said.

(The event is) designed to enhance understanding of Chicano history and awareness of ChicanoLatino experience and culture.

Nancy Page Fernandez Director of Freshman Programs

In addition to producing Harvest of Loneliness, Gonzalez is the author of a number of books regarding Mexican labor.

The screening is sponsored by CSUF College of Humanities and Social Sciences, Chicana and Chicano Studies Department, Chicana and Chicano Resource Center, Chicana and Chicano Studies Alliance, Freshman Programs, and Housing and Residence Life.

The screening and discussion is scheduled for Monday at 4 p.m. in the Pine Hall, Room 111.

Harvest of Loneliness will also be screened Oct. 14 at the Old Orange County Courthouse Museum at 7 p.m.

For more information about the CSUF screening, call Nancy Fernandez at 657-278-3709 or email her at npfernandez@fullerton.edu.

HEMP: SB 676, which redefines marijuana, is awaiting governor’s signature ...Continued from page 1 “Hemp, when it’s grown, is more durable. There’s less runoff and less pollution,” said Scotty Van, an environmental activist.

Among the regulations that would stop college students from “cultivating their own industrial crop,” the bill would require that farms used to grow the industrial hemp jump through a number of hoops, including disposing of the flowering tops or buds of the plant

even though they would already be tested to have little-to-no THC in them.

According to Section 1, Subsection H of the bill, “Although they have no psychoactive effect, any resin, flowering tops or leaves of the industrial hemp plant that are removed from the lawful field of cultivation shall be, by definition, marijuana and subject to prosecution.”

This means the parts of the plant valued by true Bob Marley fans must be disposed of after the collec-

tion of the hemp material.

“Farmers should take care to ensure that all flowering tops and leaves remain in the lawful field of cultivation after the harvest of seed or fiber,” the bill states. “There is no lawful reason to harvest, collect or process the flowering tops of industrial hemp.”

One CSUF student said this may be a waste of possible resources and revenue for the state of California.

“So they’re just using it for paper and throwing the rest away?

That’s stupid!” said Thien Le, 25, a

biochemistry major. “It’s wasteful, you’re not using the wonderful resources. It’s wasting money in general by using half of it and throwing the rest away. I’m confused.”

Previous bills trying to decriminalize the psychoactive portions of the plant have been unsuccessful, but this bill distinguishes itself from others because it is, as Norby put it, “about rope, not dope.”

As of Sept. 8, the motion was voted on by a majority and was sent to Sacramento to be signed into law by Brown.

Leaving indoors for new adventures

Courtesy of Adventure Club Many students have shown interest in the new Adventure Club at Cal State Fullerton. The club participates in a wide variety of outdoor activities including hiking, camping, surfing, bouldering, rock climbing and snowboarding.

CSUF Adventure Club already has 52 members, counting BROOKE McCALL Daily Titan

Members of Cal State Fullerton’s new Adventure Club said they are looking forward to going on a camping trip in the Mojave Desert from Oct. 14 to Oct. 16.

Vice President Stacey Barlow, 20, a

kinesiology major, said she is excited about the upcoming camping trip this month.

“I’ve only been camping once before so I think this will be something new, something different. Our club is all different levels of interest as far as what people want to do, as far as adventure, because it’s such a broad spectrum of what we are capable of doing,” she said.

Participants are encouraged to bring their own camping supplies or

borrow supplies from the Adventure Club. Some of the activities will include camping, hiking and star gazing.

The club has sparked interest from students this semester. The club, which has 52 members, participates in a wide variety of outdoor activities including hiking, camping, surfing, bouldering, rock climbing and snowboarding.

Syed Ahmed, 23, a health science major and president of the club, said the Adventure Club is for everyone.

“We do not discriminate (against) anyone from joining, but we encourage everyone to join and encourage all students to take part in healthy outdoor activities and get out of their comfort zone to learn a new outdoor sport,” said Ahmed.

The cost for joining the club is $15 per semester, which pays for a variety of official club-sponsored events.

There are also unofficial events which do not require you to pay the $15 semester dues. The club arranges a large amount of unofficial events which allows Fullerton students to bring one guest outside of Fullerton, whom they will be responsible for.

Adventure-type clubs throughout the U.S. are starting to spark up interest at universities, Barlow said.

“The club is basically for anyone who likes to randomly pick up and go off and do something fun. I enjoy it because it is something new, it’s something different,” Barlow said.

Garrett Armstrong, 25, a communications major, said the club is a real positive experience not only for the founders, but also for the students. “(Adventure Club) is like a social network, because you have the opportunity to hang out with people with like-minded interests, to meet new people with like-minded interests, to go out and have activities and just enjoy yourself,” said Armstrong, copresident of the Adventure Club.

The Adventure Club is open to new event and activity ideas from club members and Fullerton students.

“It’s a club by the students, for the students. It’s only going to be what we make it. Our participation is what makes the club so valuable. We are doing it for ourselves,” Armstrong said.

INSPYTE: New social network ...Continued from page 1

In one of the many parking spaces at CSUF, the Daily Titan interviewed a student to see what’s happening this week.

Diana Velasquez is passionate about helping people and enjoys traveling, music, spending time with friends and family, bicycle riding, running and hiking.

The Pico Rivera resident enjoys listening to indie music and her favorite band is currently Blink 182. Velasquez hopes to see the alternative rock band in concert soon; it will be her first time.

“I have here right now Blink 182’s new CD (Neighborhoods), so it’s one of my favorite bands right now,” said Velasquez, 21, a psychology major.

Velasquez said she knew right away she wanted to study psychology. She would not change her major even if she was given the option to start over.

“Psychology really interests me. All the theories about the mind and how it works really grabs my attention,” Velasquez said.

Her interest has led her to work an internship at a counseling center called New Directions. She was recently promoted and offered a part-time position this week. Velasquez’s job responsibilities will include observing group therapy sessions and receptionist work.

“You get to meet kids who came out of troubled (backgrounds), so you get to hear their stories a lot, so that’s really interesting,” she said.

In addition to working at the counseling center, Velasquez also works as a server at Claim Jumper in Brea. This month Velasquez will be traveling to Chico to visit friends at Chico State for a weekend road trip.

Due to her work schedule, Velasquez only takes night courses this semester at Cal State Fullerton.

clinical psychology after she graduates with her bachelor’s from CSUF. She hopes to go into a career that deals with personality disorders.

Velasquez anticipates that she will graduate in spring of 2013.

“I hope to graduate soon,” Velasquez said.

Velasquez said it is a family tradition to study at CSUF. Both of her older brothers have attended CSUF. Velasquez enjoys spending time with her siblings by going out to eat and going to entertaining places.

She and her siblings are very close, she said, so she commutes from Los Angeles county to

CSUF–a 45-minute drive to school each way.

As far as this week, Velasquez plans to go see 50/50 in the movie theaters with her friends. The new comedy-drama stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen, who are best friends whose lives are affected by a cancer diagnosis. Comedy and action are her favorite movie genres.

After she graduates in 2013, Velasquez plans to travel to Europe for a month or more with family and friends. Velasquez will be backpacking across every European country, moving between cities every two days. It will be her first trip out of the country and she is excited about it.

Club will be hosting a bake sale at the Fullerton Titan Walk from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The Adventure Club invites Fullerton students to join their club meetings in the Titan Student Union, which are held every other Wednesday from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. and every other Thursday from noon to 1 p.m.

“We (Adventure Club) encompass pretty much every adventurous activity ... We try to make people leave their couches and get out there to see nature, see where they live and see their backyard,” Ahmed said.

To find out more about the Adventure Club you can visit their Facebook group at Facebook.com/Groups/CSUFAdventureClub or email them at csufadventureclub@gmail.com.

The Adventure Club will go to the Mojave Desert Oct. 14 to Oct. 16. “I’ve only been camping once before so I think this will be something new, something different,” said Stacey Barlow.

On Facebook’s blog, hundreds of users debate as to whether or not these new features are even necessary.

“At first it’s a little weird. Every time they change Facebook people get mad, but I just adapt to it,” said Amir Obeid, a psychology major.

Bronstein said the site has seen a significant user base growth in the last few weeks.

“The quality of the site is very important to me. I feel Inspyte will grow through word of mouth, favorable press coverage and events. We hope to create the best social network around, and hopefully our users will tell their friends about us,” Bronstein said.

Students said they would only use Inspyte if their friends did.

“If a lot of people are doing it and if Facebook died out just like MySpace, I would use it,” said RTVF major Jocelyn Aragon.

To make the site more appealing to people, Bronstein disclosed what he’s currently working on.

“The next thing on our ‘to do’ list is to incorporate the database of colleges and high schools into the system, so that users can select which school they go to and connect users based on this,” he said.

DEAD SEA: Faculty, students and community gather to see scroll replica ...Continued from page 1 Attendees said they were happy with what they heard and saw.

“I thought it was very insightful to understand and get insight on the background of the scrolls,” said Jamie Dee, 24, a history major at CSUF. Dee appreciated the replica as well, acknowledging how well the reproducer did with every little detail of the scroll.

“Even looking at the stitch work and the little corrections, the damage, it’s just really cool,” Dee said.

Students from other campuses around the area came out to see the exhibit as well.

Kieth Anaya, 22, a West Los Angeles Community College student studying anthropology and psychology, drove out from Los Angeles at 6 a.m. to see the exhibit.

“The lecture is an eye-opener,” he said. “Just seeing these scrolls after hun-

dreds of years–it’s one of the most beautiful things in the world.”

Benjamin Hubbard concluded the lectures with a look at the different hands that have been involved with the scrolls, the politics surrounding them and the new revelations the scrolls have produced over the past 60-plus years.

“I’ve got to say, as chauvinistic as I am about my department, I’m really very pleased,” said Hubbard in regards to the exhibit. “It gave us a lot of visibility. It was really worthwhile; it did get a

lot of people involved in an important part of history. Overall, for us, I think it was a wonderful success. I’m really pleased.”

Hubbard believes the fascination with the scrolls lies in the fact that there is always another piece to the puzzle and more to be revealed through the Dead Sea Scrolls.

“It’s ancient, it’s relevant and it relates to our history and to Judeo-Christian culture. It kind of has all the makings of something that is just too cool,” he said.

OPINION

October 6, 2011

Is it okay to break unjust laws?

PRO: LUKE CHERNEY In California, the penalty for being caught with less than an ounce of marijuana is a fine of $100, according to The National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. When penalties for laws are so lax, it’s a wonder why we have them on the books any more.

In 1920, the government passed the 18th Amendment, the prohibition of alcohol, which created a new generation of gangsters, a vast illegal underground smuggling economy and increased violence between many involved.

Citizens had been drinking since the inception of America without much trouble, so for many Americans the law was seen as an unnecessary hindrance of individual freedom.

In turn, many ordinary people, not just gangsters, refused to follow the law, which fueled violence between police, citizens and the mob.

In 1933, however, the 18th Constitutional Amendment was overturned with the 21st Amendment, after which, President Roosevelt said, “I think this would be a good time for beer.”

Compare the consumption of marijuana to the consumption of a legal substance, like alcohol, and an unintended byproduct, like drunk driving.

It is estimated that 10,839 people will die from a drunk driving-related accident, according to Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD). Because of this, penalties are extraordinarily steep for first-time drunk-driving offenders.

On the first offense, people can be sentenced for up to six months in jail, have their license suspended,

be compelled to pay a huge fine, have an ignition interlock device installed on their car and be sent to alcohol awareness classes.

A punishment as harsh as that means the government has a compelling interest to prevent intoxicated citizens from taking the wheel, and perhaps their life, into their unsteady hands that are impaired after consuming a drink or two.

In the meantime the government may be a little less concerned with what someone does at home on the couch with a quart of Häagen-Dazs ice cream.

But more importantly, when a consequence is so dramatic, most people will think twice before choosing to break the law.

The point I am trying to make is why does the federal government still have marijuana on the same level as heroin when they believe it to be harmless?

When the penalty for being caught with less than an ounce of marijuana is less than a traffic violation, it certainly is not a major priority for law enforcement, so why does the government need to have the law anymore?

When ordinary, otherwise law-abiding citizens make the logical decision to break laws they deem unnecessary, it weakens the strength of communities, creates suspicion between citizens and police and creates a market for crime.

Regardless of whether or not people should break unjust laws, when the government makes ineffectual mandates that hinder individual freedoms without practical application, citizens will break these laws.

When Congress legislates morality without consulting the mores of the people, it will lead to greater trouble and unintended consequences.

CON: MIKARI KUGA The topic of whether people should obey laws that are unjust or whether it’s okay to break them has been debated for years. In today’s society, it is hard to imagine or think about what really constitutes an unjust law. I can say confidently, though, there are no such unjust laws here in the modern American society.

Teens in California under the age of 18 might not agree with a law that bans them from drinking alcohol.

Many people know that drinking has consequences, including death, and so a law restricting alcohol access to minors is beneficial. Therefore, we can say this law exists in order to protect our lives.

People who moved over here from other states might feel that a traffic law, such as banning the cell-phone use while driving, is too strict. But this is not unjust either.

According to the Insurance Journal, California paid the most money in the country from fatal car crashes in 2005.

Having this law is a way the state tries to protect our lives. There are reasons behind the creation of the each law, and we have to understand that.

However, it is also true that a number of unjust laws were enacted in the past, such as the Volstead Act, which prohibited people from producing, selling and transporting alcohol. Such a law is unlikely to be passed now, but if we had it today, we must obey it because it’s a law. Why? Many countries, including America, are law-abiding nations, and laws enable us to judge things objectively and fairly.

Laws, like ones protecting people from robbery and murder, are just and good.

If we are permitted to break them even once, our country will lose the importance of existing as a law-abiding

nation. Our predecessors’ effort for creating the laws to protect us will become meaningless.

Imagine that a soccer player holds a ball in his hand and runs to score the goal. If a referee does not award a penalty to him, then the opponent will do the same thing to score goals. Players may start fighting in order to have the ball, and it will lead to chaos.

Likewise, it will trigger similar chaos if people who break the law are not penalized.

What about the Indian Removal Act? Because of this, Native Americans were forced to move west and their lands were taken away.

This is said to be one of the worst laws in American history, according to The Examiner. Do we need to obey this kind of unjust law just because it is deemed a law?

No, because the importance of the law has to guarantee our basic human rights. If not, such a law undermines our right to live.

How can we stand against obeying such laws without breaking them? Do counter-demonstrations or form a civil movement against it.

Is the law in America the same as the law in the 1700s?

No, the law has changed with time. Women gained the right to vote. People of color as well as whites can go to the same restaurant.

We have the power to change laws that are unjust without breaking them. And the laws should change with the needs of the age.

We must remember that obeying the law is important in a sense to keep social order and protect ourselves from any harm.

We have ways to change laws that are unjust, so we should utilize these ways instead of breaking a law. Disobeying the law can change nothing, but changing the law brings good.

Concert Beirut amazes audience

Courtesy of the Theatre Department Ryan Jones brings out the good and the bad in the dual characters of Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde, allowing him to take on a more comedic role in the production’s take on farce.

Jekyl finds comedy in Hyde ‘Chemical Imbalance, A Jekyll and Hyde Play’ turns the classic story into campy fun GILLIAN HADLAND Daily Titan

The story of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is iconic. Everyone knows the story, or has at least heard of it: The tragic story about the dual nature of man, the story of good vs. evil.

Students have probably seen the poster for the Theatre Department’s production of Chemical Imbalance, A Jekyll and Hyde Play only to feel a sudden sensation of nausea and dread because of the awful memories of high school English.

The original story of Jekyll and Hyde is dark and serious, and the idea of sitting in the dark for a couple of hours watching the novel come to life seems depressing and draining. Fortunately, for those of you who live to laugh, you will find that Chemical Imbalance is highly clever, comedic and is more of a Saturday Night Live spoof of the original story.

Director Eve Himmelheber was quick to fall in love with the play’s campy humor. “Our script is so darned wry, I worry that we don’t get in its way by superimposing our own ego on it,” said Himmelheber. “That’s been the most fun part of the process for me: trying to figure out exactly how far you can go with the

characters, playing them truthfully, urgently, always at the risk of overdoing it.”

Himmelheber’s answer is good enough reason to see the show, as her direction has led to a memorable performance. Ryan Jones’ beautifully expressive eyes alone will surely draw anyone in.

and Hyde, a role that has allowed him to finally exercise his comedy skills.

“It’s just such a fun role because of the farce, I’ve never gotten to do farce before,” said Jones, a senior theatre major. “And it’s interesting how Hyde is Dr. Jekyll’s mask and then is free

to do whatever he wants, so it’s kind of fun to explore that.”

Students will also find themselves transported to the Victorian era once they feast their eyes on the set, which was built with help by graduate student Amy Shuffield. Although Shuffield made it a point not to have the set distract the audience from the actors’ performances, it didn’t stop her from building a set that truly captured the feel of a Victorian England.

“I really researched the way rooms were decorated in Victorian England by looking at images from the era, such as paintings or copies of old catalogs,” said Shuffield. “I also used historically accurate furniture and decorations.”

Now that you’re all well versed in the actual premise of the play, don’t hesitate to buy your tickets. The show opens Friday in the Young Theatre and runs until Oct. 23.

Himmelheber believes students can think of this play as an early Halloween treat.

“They have never laughed out loud at any Jekyll and Hyde, I’ll bet, and they will laugh at ours,” she said.

How much more convincing do you need?

Professor puts an artistic touch on cult fave A rock cover album to the Blu-Ray cover illustrations of the classic trilogy, professor leads by example JOEY BECERRA Daily Titan

The little boy who grew up drawing dinosaurs probably didn’t expect to grow up to later design the Blu-Ray cover for Star Wars- The Complete Saga.

Cliff Cramp, who is trained as an illustrator with an MFA from Cal State Fullerton, has a notable portfolio. He lists several recent projects, including doing cover art for a Plain White T’s album and creating advertising illustration for Corel Painter.

Cramp, a CSUF alumnus and faculty illustration professor, was recently honored with the opportunity to create the Blu-Ray cover illustrations.

Cramp said the process of securing the job creating the Star Wars illustrations was a complicated one. He was offered the opportunity to bid for the role by Cheryl Savala, a fellow CSUF alumna, professor and owner of Menagerie Creative, an OC-based design company.

Savala decided to do preliminary work for George Lucas, creator of the Star Wars franchise, in hopes of securing the project. Savala asked Cramp to do illustrations for the initial work to show Lucas.

Ultimately, Lucas chose Menagerie Creative as the design team to create the Star Wars illustrations.

Savala chose Cramp as the man for the job because they have previously worked together on many projects. “We see eye to eye and we have the same sensibilities as artists. It’s such a pleasure to work with him. He’s my go-to guy,” said Savala.

Savala also said Cramp is a major asset to his department. “(He) listens to the students and encourages them to participate on many levels.”

Samantha Gray, a sixth-year illustration and animation student, described Cramp as a “talented and modest man.”

Gray added that Cramp sets himself apart

Courtesy of Twentieth Century Fox Blu-Ray illustrations of the Star Wars saga, designed by Cliff Cramp, teaches students how to follow their professor’s passion. Cramp was chosen to design by Menagerie Creative, an OC-based design company

from other teachers by taking an invested interest in knowing how each of his students is improving.

Aside from monitoring their progress, Cramp gives his students insight to the art world that other teachers don’t. “He teaches about the industry, which you hardly hear about in other classes,” said Gray.

It’s fitting that Cramp is preparing his students for the entertainment field since CSUF provides many opportunities.

“CSUF has a huge connection to the enter-

tainment industry in animation film and design,” said Cramp.

Savala said Cramp sets himself apart because he brings authenticity and real-world knowledge to his teaching.

“He listens to the challenges that (the students) face. He embraces the changes of the design community and he is an active participant in social media, which is the world that his students are seeking to belong to,” Savala said.

Cramp, who grew up in the south side of Downey, Calif., describes himself as coming

from a poor family. His passion for illustration came at a young age.

A teacher gave Cramp a sketchbook and drawing pencils after he saw Cramp drawing on the ground with a stick while waiting to go up to bat in kickball. From there, Cramp’s love for illustration took off. “My homework was always covered with drawings,” Cramp said.

Cramp received both his undergraduate and graduate degrees in illustration from CSUF. He took six years off from his education when

he ran into some bumps in the road after his first year of college.

“It was only going to be one year that I got sidetracked and it took me six years to get back to college. I tell my students that they are generally ahead of me at the point that they are at,” Cramp said.

In regards to the future, Cramp said that he is always pushing for the next project because it is important for his students to know that he is doing what he teaches.

It seems those who can, can teach.

“We are proud of our food, we are proud of what we create and we cook it right in front of you so there is nothing to hide. And that stems from our professional cooks who take pride in what they do,” said Peralez.

The Gastronome has brought residential students together to a common place where everyone can hang out and enjoy quality food, and it has eased the burden of preparing meals for many students.

“As a music major, I have zero time to cook a decent and healthy meal, so it’s nice to know I have the Gastronome,” Kisling said. “I would definitely recommend everyone try it out at least once just to see what all the hype is about.”

Is adulthood really the hangover after college? That is what co-workers and roommates Anders, Blake and Adam are trying to figure out in the second season of Workaholics on Comedy Central.

Workaholics, which targets 18 to 24-year-olds, features three college friends working the 9 to 5 in the same office. The workplace is not what the three roommates are used to, so they make the most of their time drinking, having a good time and scheming to avoid work.

Comedy Central’s hit show debuted its second season premiere Sept. 20 after a lead-in from the fall season premiere of Tosh.0. The show stars Blake Anderson, Anders Holm and Adam DeVine, who are part of LA-based sketch comedy group, Mail Order Comedy. After the series’ first smash hit season, which totaled 1.5 million viewers, the threesome of Workaholics is back in their cubicles and ready for new office adventures.

During a phone press conference that happened Thursday with Director/Executive Producer Kyle Newacheck, Holm, Anderson and colleges around the U.S., Anderson said in season two, Workaholics viewers could expect to see special guests on the show.

“We’ve been meeting some heroes of ours, so that has been really cool,” said Anderson right before he described his jeep-dried hair regime.

Because the three co-stars and the director have been friends prior to Workaholics, the team is allowed to be creative, enjoy a laidback environment and work as a collaborative team, which makes the show and characters real and genuine.

“I think we draw a lot of this stuff from real life,” Anderson said. “We pick details from who we really are.”

But of course, Newacheck and his team have to juice things up for TV. “We are just like our characters,” said Holm.

“Except it’s kind of like the ones you see on TV are amplified versions.”

Although each episode is scripted, some of what we see on TV as viewers is improvised by the three co-stars. Newacheck helps the co-stars relax and in a way be themselves on set. The guys at the press conference said roughly 80 percent of the show is scripted and 20 percent is improvised.

Anderson said he and Newacheck have been friends since third grade. When they moved to Los Angeles, they met DeVine who introduced them to Holm after taking improvisation classes together. Together, the guys realized they had humor, creativity and determination in common. They started by making Internet videos

for anyone who was willing to tune in. Then, you could say the rest was history.

Working with Comedy Central has also been like working with an old friend for the cast. Like their characters, the guys like the parties, the booze and their ingenious humor.

“It’s been great (working with Comedy Central), they really trust us with the creative process,” Newacheck said.

“When they throw parties they give us free beer,” Anderson said.

As for getting down to business and actually constructing each episode, Newacheck explained that it is a collaborative effort.

“Somebody will come with a little nugget of an idea and then we will sit around the table and talk out the story; and then Anders (Holm) and Kevin (Etten, the executive producer and show runner) take it to the computer and write the script,” Newacheck said.

During this process, some ideas will stick and turn into an episode, and some will flop, according to Anderson, Holm and Newacheck.

Although it may seem like all business behind the scenes of Workaholics, the cast claims to have pretty wild lunches. Holm is said to have done some “dope” freestyle raps behind the scenes that nobody ever hears.

“When I’m pitching a story out, I’ll just freestyle the story; it’s a lot more fun,” Holm said.

And “fun” is what the cast ultimately strives for as they enter into the big leagues of TV comedy.

Holm said he feels lucky to have built a strong career while he is still young.

“I think we do this as long as it’s fun,” Holm said. “I’m on a show that I like, with friends that I like, writing stuff with that keeps me interested. We’ve reached our goal a little prematurely.”

With the second season in full speed, the guys of Workaholics are well past their days of Internet videos and are soaking up the fame with their success from the show.

Newacheck said their hard work and determination to produce a show they believed in has paid off.

“It feels good that a lot of people like it, that you are doing something that speaks to the masses; that’s awesome,” Newacheck said.

As the NBA season continues to be up in the air, the owners and players don’t realize how much they truly mean to their fans PATRICK CORBET Daily Titan

When talks between NBA players and owners broke down Tuesday, the entire basketball world fell into uncertainty. With the preseason officially canceled and the beginning of the regular season on the brink, who knows when we will see NBA basketball again.

Multiple reports have put the sides $900 million apart across seven years after the session Tuesday. This seems daunting until you look at the total amount, which is over $31 billion.

When union head Billy Hunter, joined by stars like Kobe Bryant and Amare Stoudemire, and NBA commissioner David Stern walked into a New York hotel for the bargaining session Tuesday, they were $2.5 billion apart.

Despite the progress that was made, no future talks were scheduled.

Union President and Lakers guard Derek Fisher, along with Hunter, sent a letter to each player in the league following the meeting. The letter explains some details of the meetings, but continuously points out how the players will not back down. The letter reads, “The players are prepared to sacrifice and stand for what we believe is fair.”

While the players have a right to fight for what they think is fair, their sacrifice is nowhere near what others stand to lose. What will happen to the woman who takes tickets at the Staples Center, where both the Lakers and Clippers play? How will the janitor at Madison Square Garden put food on his family’s table?

The average player salary last season was over $5.3 million. The average janitor made less than $25,000, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The players don’t think of the vendor hawking sodas in the upper deck when they talk of sacrifice. Yet in a nation with a 9.1 percent unemployment rate, every job and every shift counts.

Earlier this week, Miami Heat

owner Micky Arison tweeted that he needed a steak after a day of talks.

Will the security guards, ushers, cashiers, cooks and countless others who work at American Airlines Arena even be able to afford ground beef?

The economics of those not at the bargaining table will not be the only thing impacted. Some people will say it is just sports, who cares if they don’t play?

Tell that to my aunt, a breast cancer survivor who is battling cancer yet again. The Lakers provided her an escape from the harsh treatments and helped her beat it the first time. She is a strong woman and she will beat it again. Her biggest concern right now seems to be how she will celebrate her birthday, which is usually at the Staples Center watching her beloved Lakers.

Tell that to my 90-year-old grandmother, who, bless her soul, can’t always remember who I am but can always remember the Lakers.

I know, you probably don’t care about my personal connections to the game, and that’s quite fine. My examples are just two of countless others. The game of basketball, and sports in general, mean something more.

The socioeconomic gap between those fans sitting courtside and those fans watching on a cheap television at home could not be greater. But the sports help bridge that gap.

Nothing brings Southern California together like the Lakers. What connection is there between Hollywood and South Central, the valley and the beaches, Los Angeles and Orange County? Nothing brings the people of these areas together like the Lakers.

It’s not only about the money, it’s about who can call themselves the winner. Otherwise, there would have been progress made over the past two years when so many saw this lockout coming. While millionaire players and billionaire players bicker, there is so much more at stake during these bargaining sessions.

The ball is in their court.

Titans ready for big weekend Cal State Fullerton sports are competing at home and away, led by the volleyball team and women’s soccer, both at Long Beach BROOKE McCALL Daily Titan

With the start of another weekend, Titan athletes are ready to tear it up. Volleyball and soccer games are taking place this weekend as well as a cross-country meet, men’s hockey and rugby games, and women’s tennis. Starting Thursday moving through Sunday, here is a look at the sport schedule for this week.

Men’s hockey will be playing this Thursday against University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV), starting at 10:30 p.m. at the KHS Ice Arena. The team is 1-0 and had its first win Saturday. The hockey team’s goal is to make the regional tournament, which will be the first time CSUF’s hockey team has qualified for regional.

Brandon Heethuis, 21, men’s hockey goaltender and team captain, is excited about this week’s match and said, “There are no words to describe if we were to win (this week against UNLV).”

Assistant captain Elan Dundea, forward, was last year’s biggest scorer. He is anticipating this year to be another exciting year with lots of goals.

Jake Yarter, another hockey team player, is a big hitter for Fullerton and get’s the fans excited.

“They (UNLV) are a good team and are expected to win the game; we are the underdog. It’s going to be a big team effort to take this,” said Heethuis.

Women’s tennis will be competing starting Friday through Sunday for the fall intercollegiates all day at the Titan Courts. Starting at 8 a.m. will be the double matches and later at 9:30 a.m. will be the singles matches, which will be followed by matches every hour. It’s preseason for the team of nine; sophomore player Megan Sandford is injured and will not be playing for another couple of weeks. After the first match of the preseason last weekend, the women’s tennis team has gotten off to a great start with their first win. The team is made up of freshmen, sophomores and juniors.

“It’s going to be another learning and growing season … (The women’s tennis team has) a lot of energy, a lot of excitement, they are very optimistic, they are very excited about getting started,” said Bill Reynolds, CSUF women’s tennis coach.

Women’s volleyball will be playing Saturday at Long Beach State at 7 p.m. The team has one match it is preparing for to focus its attention on Long Beach. Mike Gee, assistant women’s volleyball coach, said, “For this weekend I think we

need a good bounceback match. Fortunately for us we are up against a pretty big rival with Long Beach State.”

Audience members can expect to see veteran players like Kayla Neto and Leah Maurer. Go-to leader and player Maurer has been very productive in the middle this season. Neto, junior outside and team captain, is anticipated to have a good performance.

“We can all expect the team to be focused … and do the best we can,” Gee said.

Cross-country will take place Saturday at the Vanguard Invitational in Costa Mesa beginning at 9 a.m. The full team is not running this weekend.

Last weekend the cross-country team traveled to Eugene, Ore. for the Dellinger Invitational. The women will run the 5k at 9 a.m. and the men will run the 8k at 10 a.m. The following runners will be competing this weekend: Katie Bathgate, Allison Murray, Taylor Reyes, Brandon Cook, Cesar Rodriguez and Jayce Smith.

Women’s soccer will be playing Saturday at Long Beach State at 1 p.m. Team captains Jeanne Mazeau and Caitlin Mellano are holding down the team’s back line.

“Both of them are very solid defenders–Jeanne plays in the center-back position and controls the flow of the game as well as getting into very necessary tackles in our defensive end. Caitlin plays outside back and runs the line both offensively and defensively–she is aggressive when we are in the attack and has a very solid left-footed cross.

She is also very aggressive in the back line where she keeps everyone connected and calm,” said Lauryn Welch, CSUF women’s soccer assistant coach.

Their midfield consists of freshman Chelsey Patterson, who is fast and strong. On the forward line are team captain Stacey Fox and Ann Marie Tangorra.

“As a coaching staff we feel strongly that this year we have the type of players who are willing to give themselves to this program. We are very excited where Cal State Fullerton women’s soccer is going to end up at the end of the year,” Welch said.

Men’s rugby is playing a home game in a dual match against USC and Cal Lutheran this Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Rugby veterans Artie Hernandez, Panayotis Papadopoulos, Jimmy Sofia, Chris Abson and Dylan Mahr will be playing hard against their rivals this weekend. Currently rugby is in its preseason and had its first match against Long Beach State Saturday.

Joshua Lee, 21, president of CSUF’s men’s rugby, is looking forward to hosting USC this weekend.

“Last year we gave them (USC) a good pounding of good Titan rugby and we look forward to doing it again. We know they’ll be coming back for vengeance so we are preparing ourselves right now for this match. USC is a Division I team, so we won’t take them lightly. We never take anyone lightly.”

TITANS: Men’s soccer falls to 0-2 in Big West play after losing to UC Irvine 2-1 without captain Kevin Venegas ...Continued from page 1

AARON GILLIAM / Daily Titan Senior midfielder Michael Denny takes a free kick Wednesday against UC Irvine.

Denny scored on the shot, although the Titans lost 2-1 and fell to 0-2 in the Big West.

In the game Wednesday, the Titans had two mistakes that were capitalized by the Anteaters.

On a corner kick, the Titans had trouble getting the ball past the first line of defense, leaving the ball and space open for UC Irvine’s midfielder Miguel Ibarra.

Ibarra received a clearance outside the Anteaters’ defending zone and dribbled from end to end, down the left wing, playing two giveand-go’s with forward Juan Gutierrez.

Gutierrez concluded the run, receiving the ball just outside the six-yard box and finishing

past Whiddon in the 67th minute for the gamewinner. The goal gave UC Irvine a 2-1 lead it would never relinquish.

“Defensively, we couldn’t have done much.

It was just a better play by Miguel,” said junior defender Bobby Reiss.

UC Irvine’s midfielder Jimmy Turner opened up the scoring in the 13th minute in an unusual sequence of events. After his throw-in was deflected, he was able to gain possession and shoot from 30 yards away, outside the left side of the box. Whiddon had trouble playing the routine shot and had the ball go through his hands.

CSUF did get the equalizer in the 38th minute off a free-kick by senior midfielder Michael

Denny. His low shot was driven toward the far post before it was deflected off an Irvine defender and misdirected past Fontein.

The opportunities were scarce in the second half for the Titans. They were held to only four shots and 10 total in the match.

The Titans’ best chance in the second half came when sophomore midfielder Ritchie Gonzalez received a ball 35 yards away.

With space to work with, Gonzalez opted to shoot and test Fontein, who was 10 yards off his mark. Fontein got a piece of it and the shot sailed inches over the crossbar.

Titans junior forward Jesse Escalante led the team with two shots on goal.

DTSHORTHAND Men’s And Women’s Golf Dominate for Victories

ROBERT HUSKEY / For the Daily Titan Junior goalie Brandon Heethuis gloves a save against USC Saturday at Anaheim Ice. The Titan hockey club is now 1-0 on the season and play against UNLV Thursday night at KHS Ice Arena at 7 p.m.

Heethuis leads Titan hockey club MIKE WHITE Daily Titan

Blocking high-speed shots and completing a double major, or working as a title assistant in his spare time, CSUF hockey goaltender and team captain Brandon Heethuis is a force to be reckoned with.

Heethuis, 21, was born and raised in Southern California and put on his first pair of skates when he was only 4 years old.

“I first started playing goalie when I was 5 years old and just kind of fell in love with the game since then,” said Heethuis. “It’s really been a family thing growing up.”

He is a third-generation goaltender following in the footsteps of his goalie grandfather, Edwin Heethuis

Sr., and his father, Edwin Jr., who played for a minor league hockey team in Michigan.

Heethuis, who blocked over 800 shots last season and was on the ice for more than 1,000 minutes, said the hardest part about goaltending is the mental aspect.

“Every time you make a mistake it ends up on the scoreboard,” he said. “It’s a lot of pressure. You can be the determining factor in whether or not your team wins.”

The pregame ritual for Heethuis includes getting his skates sharpened and then calming his mind and body to find focus. He always takes a short nap before every game; he said it helps him not think about the game and stay calm.

“I know this is going to sound weird, but I like to drink herbal drinks before I play,” Heethuis said.

“It’s like a superstition I have. I drink an herbal tea or an acai berry drink before I play. I just feel it gets my mind and body clean.”

Teammate and co-captain Kyle Levindofske, who also played junior hockey with Heethuis when they were 10, said goalies are known to do weird things before the game.

“It takes a special person to want to put the pads on and get the puck shot at you instead of shooting the puck,” said Levindofske.

The two lost contact over the years before reuniting here in Fullerton. They share the leadership role on the team and were selected

to play on the Western Conference All-Star team last year.

Last season there wasn’t an official captain who wore the “C” on his chest. It was a lead-by-committee arrangement. This season the management, coaches and a leadership group picked the two to be captains going into this season.

“It was a strong move by our coach,” said center Justin Monteleone. “He’s always motivating the team and trying to keep us going.”

“He’s really been one of the biggest leaders on the team and I’m glad they made him the captain,” he said.

Several of the players said it is often considered bad luck to have a goalie for a captain, but Heethuis motivates and leads this team.

Rookie Jake Yarter said since joining the team he has noticed that Heethuis regulates what goes on in

the locker room and makes sure everyone is focused and prepared going into every game.

Goalie coach David Bezeau said over the last two seasons that Heethuis has grown as a leader and his speed and athleticism on the ice are two of his biggest strengths.

“It’s pretty uncommon for a goalie to be captain,” said Bezeau. “It’s just that the captain of the team has to keep a level head and be a clear thinker even when tempers are flaring and everyone is losing it.”

CSUF hockey plays its first conference game Thursday night against University of Nevada Las Vegas.

“We have a strong team this year and I’m excited for the season and I can’t wait to play,” Heethuis said.

“Our first big test is this Thursday against Vegas. They’re a good team, they made regionals last year and we’ll have to see what happens.”

For the first time since the golf program was reinstated, the men’s and women’s golf teams both won the Firestone Grill Invitational at Monarch Dunes Golf Club in Nipomo, Calif. Monday.

The men’s golf team ran away with its championship, winning by 18 strokes and a team total of 861, 9-over-par.

The women’s team won by four strokes and a team total 917, 65-over-par.

Sophomore Mark Anquiano shot even-over-par in the 54hole tournament and fourth place individually in the men’s standings. Junior Scott Rubzin finished in sixth place, shooting two-over 215, and Dakota Duerr, Ryan Tetrault and John San Juan all had top-20 finishes. Playing individually, Titan sophomore Corey Gard placed 10th, shooting 218, five-over-par.

Freshman Tisha Alyn Abrea shot 13-over-par and second place individually in the women’s standings. Neomi Hunt finished in third with 228 and Kathryn New finished in the eighth, shooting 232.

Taylor Fowler and Se Rii Lee tied for 11th, shooting 236.

The men’s team’s next tee time is at the Cal State Northridge Invitational Oct. 17. The women’s team travels to Hawaii at the Rainbow Wahine Invitational Oct. 31.
