Toasting to local brews Craft Beer Advocacy and Home Brew Club favors local breweries MICHAEL HUNTLEY Daily Titan

Many people go to bars and order corporate beer that can be considered watered-down and overpriced. However, some people do not realize there is an alternative to domestic beers in the form of microbreweries. The Cal State Fullerton Craft Beer Advocacy and Home Brew Club favors the alternative. People may argue that local craft beers taste better than corporate beers due to them being unaware of craft beers or are misinformed about what craft beer actually is. “What do you think is a craft beer? Typically people say something like Blue Moon. They are owned by Coors. That’s not craft. That’s corporate kind of hiding as craft,” said Brennan Wallace, the club’s faculty advisor. According to the Brewers Association, to be considered a craft beer, it must be small, independent and original. The beer must also have an annual production of six million barrels or less. Less than 25 percent of the craft brewery can be owned or controlled by an alcoholic beverage industry member who is not themselves a craft brewer. The club started in fall 2012 by Wallace and Skyler Irish. They would drink craft beer at breweries together and figured other students enjoy craft beer, too. The pair invited fans of craft beer and went through the club registration process. “Craft beer is something I find very interesting from the way it’s made; the different ingredients that are brewed with each batch and how it has become somewhat a way of life for our generation,” said club member Manny De Anda. “Once I realized we had a club on campus I wanted to join and continue learning and spreading the word

about great craft beer and homebrewing.” The club meets biweekly at local craft breweries, such as Bottle Logic in Anaheim, The Bruery in Placentia and HopScotch in Fullerton. Members vote online in the club’s Facebook group on where they want to have the meetings. “A typical meeting consists of everyone ordering a different beer,” said Joseph De Anda, another club member. “We drink it, we analyze it. You kind of give your input on it, like what you’re tasting, what you’re smelling, the style, what brewery makes it and what other beers they make.” The club has been able to explore breweries on group tours and see how craft beer is made. The Bruery in Placentia has worked with the club to give members experiences that are restricted for other patrons. “They’ve given us tours of their barrel room in the past which is kind of a closed-off thing. They don’t let the general public in there,” Wallace said. “They also let us have a meeting in their meeting room.” A few of the club’s members are homebrewers. Irish was one, but Joseph De Anda is the club’s lone homebrewer now. He works at Bottle Logic, a new craft brewery in Anaheim. He said the main ingredients of beer are water, grain, hops and yeast. Certain beers contain different wheats. The process of brewing beer at home can take up to six hours, he said. Although the club is one of the smaller ones on campus, Wallace prefers it that way. “We had 15 people at the first club meeting which is enough for us,” Wallace said. “Anything bigger than that and it’s too hard to talk at a brewery or get tables.” Wallace would like to keep the club small, but he is open to new members. De Anda said the club was created to educate CSUF students about craft beer and help people realize that making craft beer is an art.

Sigma Nu fraternity rallies to raise funds for cancer treatment MICHAEL HUNTLEY Daily Titan

In the wake of a surprise cancer diagnosis, the Sigma Nu fraternity is reaching out to the Internet and to the campus to help fund the treatment of Victor Sandoval, a sophomore accounting major. They have so far raised over $1,000 from friends, family and strangers. Sandoval was jogging with his brother on a normal January day at Cal State Fullerton when he started to feel out of breath. He had been an athlete and was used to being out of breath, but he said this time felt different. “I had to completely stop. I had to sit down to catch my breath. I was coughing; I couldn’t take a deep breath in and it just felt strange to me,” Sandoval said. He immediately went to the Student Health and Counseling Center on campus to see what was ailing him. After hearing Sandoval describe his symptoms, the nurses decided blood work was needed. They found that he had three times as many white blood cells as he should have had. He also had a very low red blood cell count. On Jan. 10, Victor was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, cancer of the white blood cells. “We were all pretty sad,” Sandoval’s friend and Sigma Nu brother Quinn Royston said. “I started thinking of ways to get involved and ways

that I can support.” Royston decided to try crowdfunding to raise money for Sandoval by seeking small amounts of money from a large number of people using the Internet. “I started thinking, ‘I’ve heard crowdfunding works. I wonder if they have a crowdfunding platform for medical stuff,’” Royston said. “Cancer can be very expensive depending on the treatment and how long you’re doing it and insurance.” Royston wanted to help his fraternity brother,

and started researching crowdfunding. “I found this platform called GiveForward and they did it for a pretty low rate and they send the check directly to them,” Royston said. Once the funding reaches $500, a check can be sent directly to Victor’s family. As of Monday, $1,115 has been raised to help with Sandoval’s medical expenses. Sigma Nu has been discussing different ways to raise money.

His career in business journalism spans from the Wall Street Journal to Bloomberg News. Joe Winski, a veteran journalist, is one of the two latest Reynolds Visiting Business Journalism Professors at Cal State Fullerton. He was invited through a $1.67 million grant from the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation. The five-year program will ultimately create 11 visiting professorships at 11 different schools, according to the Society of American Business Editors and Writers website. The grant, up to $50,000, is funded by the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation with the goal of helping to launch business journalism programs at campuses around the United States. Winski’s experience in business journalism helped him become elected to teach at CSUF, an accredited journalism school. He studied English at Ohio State University in addition to business administration, and after graduating, he satisfied his interest in writing by teaching high school English for three years. “Although I liked teaching the kids, I found that I still had an urge to write, and this didn’t really satisfy my urge,” he said. Winski said he applied to several graduate schools and got his master’s degree in journalism at the University of Illinois. He began his career as a reporter at The Pantagraph in Bloomington, Ill. Before working for Bloomberg News, he was a reporter and columnist for Crain Communications in Chicago, business reporter for the Chicago Tribune and reporter and editor in the Chicago bureau of the Wall Street Journal. For the last 18 and a half years of his career, Winski held many positions at Bloomberg News, including bureau chief in Chicago, Tokyo and Washington. During the last six years of his journalism career, Winski was the managing editor of Bloomberg News and eventually retired in December 2012. John McCorry, executive editor of the New York bureau for Bloomberg, was hired by Winski in Chicago and worked with him from the mid-1990s until the end of his career in 2012. SEE JOURNALIST, 5

Fraternity members raise money for friend LEUKEMIA Continued from PAGE 1

“All the fraternities and sororities that we’ve talked to really want to lend support and they just want to find different ways to support,” said Ben Duong, a psychology major. “We have a lot of great ideas going on. It’s going to involve us shaving our heads for Victor as well.” “What they are doing now, what they have planned, it’s just crazy that they would do it all for me,” Sandoval said. Greek programs on campus are known for being competitive with each other, but Sandoval’s cause has brought the Greek community together. “We get pretty competitive with all the other Greeks,” Sandoval said. “When some of them found out they had

nothing but good things to say and show their support.” Philanthropy is a big part of Greek life, and the effort to help Sandoval sets Sigma Nu apart from other fraternities, Royston said. “It’s more apparent where that help is going,” Royston said. “It is very different when you can say, ‘Look, I see that money and I know exactly where it’s going because I told it where to go,’ and that feels really good to be directly involved and know for a fact without any kind of a doubt that it’s going to help someone.” People can support Sandoval by liking the Facebook page “Victor Will Beat Leukemia,” and they can donate money to a fund to help pay for treatment by visiting GiveForward.com/ Fundraiser/chs3/help-victor-beat-leukemia.

As tensions in Ukraine continue to rise, the United States prepared Monday to impose sanctions on Russian officials involved with the occupation of Crimea, according to CNN. The Obama administration has suspended all military ties with Russia, including port visits and planned meetings, one day after suspending trade talks. Russia has deployed 16,000 troops over the last week in Crimea, a peninsula in Ukraine with a large Russianspeaking population, and demanded that Ukraine surrender or prepare for assault. Russian officials deny any plans to attack, but they have strengthened Russian military presence in the region.

ELEONOR SEGURA / Daily Titan Chris Burgee, vice president of finance/risk management at DirecTV, explained why minimizing risk is an important skill to have for all businesses and all aspects of life.

Business leaders speak Executives and assurance partners share their stories MATTHEW MEDINA Daily Titan

For students who wonder what business risk management is or how auditing a client’s account works, Cal State Fullerton held “A Day in the Life of...” to explain just that. Chris Burgee, the vice president of finance/risk management for DirecTV, explained the universal need for companies to minimize their risks. “Risk is something that’s inherent in all of us,” he said. “I don’t think there’s anybody in here who hasn’t used an alarm clock or a phone to wake them up for a test.” Burgee emphasized that changing technology would cause additional security issues in the future, making his job more challenging. However, he told the students in the audience that they would have an advantage in this sense, because they are more experienced with new hardware and software. “The one thing about risk is it never sleeps,” Burgee said. “There is never an end to it because it’s always evolving. There’s always things that are happening, there’s always things that you don’t know about that are going to happen.” Burgee said all companies have risks associated with doing business, and smaller businesses can simply buy insurance to cover most of that. However, he said for a massive, international firm like DirecTV, it makes sense to expand risk management operations and optimize everything the business does. “It starts with just trying to understand the risks of the company,” he said. “We have a lot of employees climbing on roofs to install satellite dishes … so we have a whole

safety group that works with us that helps develop ideas around how to make things safer.” Burgee spent 25 years as an insurance broker. That led him to work with DirecTV, which was one of his largest clients. “There’s always something I know that I don’t know,” he said. “And I know it’s there. Now it’s just a matter of trying to mitigate it.” Representatives from Ernst and Young (EY), a professional services firm with headquarters in London, also spoke as part of “A Day in the Life.” The firm provides assurance, a process of accounting and auditing, to its clients, as well as consulting, financial advisory and other services.

“A global mindset really is a competitive advantage now ... we want to recruit people who have that global mindset.” KIM LETCH Assurance Partner at EY

Kim Letch, an assurance partner with EY, said workers need to adapt to a world where businesses are increasingly working on an international scale, especially with a global company like EY. “A global mindset really is a competitive advantage now,” she said. “It’s driving innovation … and for us at EY, it means that we want to recruit people who have that global mindset.” Jimmy Levers, an audit senior with EY, went over what he does in the morning. “I really need to look and see where my priorities are at every morning,” he said. “Figure out what needs to be done, if I need

to shift people on a specific account, or to tackle review comments a partner left us a night before.” Levers said establishing rapport with his clients is important and helps for the future in cases when he makes mistakes. “Even if I’m super busy, if you go request something, I don’t just request it and get out of there,” he said. “I like to request it and have a few minutes of conversation with them. And sometimes that can add to your day a little bit, but in the long run, you have a really good relationship with your client.” Letch said the company varies the types of clients new recruits work with so they get more experience, even if they prefer specific businesses. As an example, she said an employee worked at EY for seven to eight years, and requested to work with real estate firms, but was not always allowed to take real estate assignments. After leaving EY, she began working with health care firms. The former senior manager sent an email to Letch last week, thanking her for giving her more generalized assignments. She said she did not realize how much she would enjoy working in the health field. “Don’t cut yourself off; don’t be your own limiter,” Letch said. “Be open to what life has to offer … we will absolutely take your preferences into consideration, and we will try to schedule you on clients that are of interest to you, but not at the exclusion of everything else, especially in the first few years.” The event is part of Business Madness week, a series of events organized by the Business Interclub Council (BICC). Upcoming events include the “Mr. and Miss Business Pageant” Wednesday at 6 p.m. and a career fair Thursday at 1 p.m, Both events will be in the Titan Student Union Pavilions.

Christyna Arista, Marin’s wife, did not hear from him until about 5:15 p.m., when he called to say he was injured and lost. Due to the severe rainstorm, search and rescue teams were unable to begin searching until Sunday. Marin’s body was found Sunday morning, and authorities think he died as a result of hypothermia. - CECILY MEZA

Rain causes leaks on campus No major damage to structures has been reported or anticipated SAMUEL MOUNTJOY Daily Titan

The weekend rainstorm that dropped 2.21 inches of rain on Cal State Fullerton caused leaks in more than 20 locations on campus. No major water issues have been reported, and leaks observed are said to be consistent with incidents during past rains, said a Cal State Fullerton representative. The Computer Science building was the hardest hit, with leaks in 12 rooms on the second, third and fourth floor, including a fourth-floor group study room. There were leaks in the ceiling of the south building of the Pollak Library, which affected stacks of books on the sixth floor. The rain also affected an elevator on the north side of the library. Heavy rain also caused cancellation of an ROTC exercise which was planned to feature two Black Hawk helicopters landing in a field in the north part of campus. Pilots gave word at 11:30 a.m. that they would not be going through with the exercises. They have been postponed until a later date. The rain also cancelled softball games that were scheduled for Friday and Saturday. The Titans were set to take on the Louisville Cardinals, the Northwestern Wildcats, Nevada Wolfpack and the Illinois Fighting Illini. The games will not be rescheduled. In addition to the rain in California, a lengthy rain delay Sunday interrupted a CSUF baseball away game against the

The storm was part of a massive deluge that covered much of Southern California with as much as a few inches of rain in some regions. 3,800 Southern California Edison customers, including 3,200 Irvine residents, were without power Saturday morning. Mud flows closed Carbon Canyon Road and several

accidents were caused by the rain, according to the Orange County Register. Stormclouds began to clear up midday Sunday and the skies were clear Monday. Accuweather predicts clear skies through Friday, with the temperature climbing to 85 degrees Fahrenheit on Saturday. The downpour was not enough to break the state’s current drought. Gov. Jerry Brown called it “perhaps the worst drought California has seen since records

began being kept 100 years ago” in a January news conference. Most of the state remains below 50 percent of normal rainfall, reported the San Jose-Mercury News on Monday. The drought has caused Brown to declare a state of emergency and President Barack Obama to pledge up to $100 million in aid during a visit to Fresno last month. Brown signed a bill Saturday that would provide $687 million in drought relief programs.

Ticket information has been released for science educator Bill Nye’s keynote presentation at an on-campus symposium. The presentation will be free for students, but members of the public will be required to purchase a ticket for $25. Tickets will become available for purchase at 7 a.m. Thursday at the TSU Information and Services Desk. Nye will keynote the 11th annual Natural Sciences and Mathematics Interclub Council (NSM-ICC) Science and Math Symposium on March 20 at 5 p.m. in the Titan Student Union Pavilions. The symposium, themed “Explorations in Citizen Science,” will be held March 19 and 20, and will feature faculty and student lectures. The event is held each year to give students in the College of Natural Science and Mathematics an opportunity to present their research.

Award shows are boon for economy MICHAEL CHEN Daily Titan

Millions of dollars in ad revenue benefit broadcast networks There are the Oscars for movies, Grammys for music, Emmys for television and the Tony’s for Broadway theatre. The sheer number of award shows that exist can easily overwhelm a viewer. Some claim these award shows are narcissistic and egotistical, saying that these spectacles are just rich people patting other rich people on the back. Others simply grow tired of seeing big name actors over inflate their egos one too many times on television. But the truth of the matter is that these award shows, from an economical standpoint, are a huge necessity for the survival of broadcast networks, and for the large number of viewers they draw in which helps keep them afloat. There’s another reason awards shows are so popular: the audience, according to Christopher Rosen of the Huffington Post. “(The 2013) Golden Globes ceremony on NBC was the highest-rated broadcast since 2007. The 2012 Academy Awards ceremony was watched by 39.3 million viewers,” Rosen said. This high amount of viewers brings in high revenues from advertisements, during the 2013 Academy Awards, ABC

was selling ads for as much as $1.8 million. “We were virtually sold out by Christmas, which speaks to the appeal of the Oscars (and) we haven’t been this well sold, this early, in over a decade,” said Debbie Richman, senior VP-prime-time ad sales at ABC. Viewers also show a huge interest in these award shows as well. Despite those who claim to hate the shows, the numbers don’t lie. The advent of social media and networking has catalyzed the rate at which viewers watch these award shows. Many people do not plan on watching these broadcasts but instead are drawn in by what they see on their Facebook wall or Twitter feed. “Even people who approach awards shows with the ‘I would never watch’ attitude are still somehow in the know,” said Mary McNamara, a TV critic for the Los Angeles Times. “Maybe they didn’t watch it live, or they watched parts on YouTube after the fact. Either way, they’re aware of what happened.” Are these award shows necessary? Yes, to a certain degree. They serve as an economical boon for the industry and continue to draw in millions upon millions of viewers each year. Award shows are covered in great detail by the media and escaping the coverage of these big events at any given time is nearly impossible. But that’s a good thing. Flipping the channel to an award show for even a little while will support a media source that helps fuel a part of this nation’s economy.

Online courses offer convenience ASHLEN DOMINGUEZ Daily Titan

Online classes have potential to offer same experience as traditional courses People can go online to get anything from groceries to CPR certifications, and online college courses are no exception. Although these courses are in high demand, can students benefit from this non-traditional form of education? The answer is yes. It is no secret that students have more to deal with these days than just attending class. It is critical that online classes be available to students because many are forced to enter the job force well before graduation. Factor in family and day-to-day living on top of a fulltime job and many people may opt out of college altogether. Cutting back on work isn’t an option for everyone. A United States Census report issued in late 2012 stated that

72 percent of undergraduate students worked and 20 percent of them were full time, year-round workers. Let’s not forget the rising costs of an education. Taking an online course isn’t the easy way out. It’s choosing to work smarter, not harder. It takes discipline and excellent time management skills to succeed in an online course and it is extremely beneficial to those students that need flexibility with their schedule. These online courses are a way for working students to get ahead. The fact is that a lot of students depend on these classes to further their education. The CSU has 23 campus locations that offer extended education, particularly online courses. On average they have 300,000 extended education enrollments each year. Are all these online classes comparable to a traditional education? No, but they have the potential to be. There are a number of professors that have mastered the art of teaching online courses. Their expectations are clear and to the point. Many of them go to great lengths to ensure that students get a quality education by having videos or audio of the lectures as well as PDFs or PowerPoints of the information being covered. Those are the classes that

are worth taking and ones that all online courses should be modeled after. Unfortunately, many online classes are poorly managed. Still taking a back seat to standard classes, students expect busy work and lengthy chapters to read. What they don’t expect is to actually learn anything. The cost of an online course is the same as a traditional class and it should be treated that way, for both the student and teacher. Both parties should be held accountable. Students should expect a reasonable amount of work and a fair share of studying. Online does not mean easy, it means convenient. The benefit to this type of instruction is that the work is ready and available at any time and deadlines should be respected. Professors need to remember that students take online classes because they fit into their busy schedules. Eliminate the busy work, put up more content, engage students, make them interested in the subject. Whether or not students respond is up to them. Online classes are essential but whether or not they work all depends on the people teaching and taking them.

You’re telling me that the university held a debate panel about how we want to proceed with the word “n****r?” Of all the problems in the world nowadays: riots, murders in Ukraine, Venezuela, starvation, droughts, lack of access to proper medical care, immigration, drug and gun legislation, police murdering people in their own homes here in the U.S.—in Los Angeles no less—and every other issue we have in the world right now, holding a panel discussing a word? A single word? I’m not sure if I’m more disgusted that the panel was held in the first place, or if someone thought

that was newsworthy! You know who gives a word its power? The person who hears it. Everyone is so politically correct nowadays that we spend more time making sure were not stepping on each others toes, that we are not actually taking any steps forward. You want a word to die off? Then stop using it. You don’t exactly hear people going around accusing others of bunberrying anymore do you? Other people using the word around you? Pay them no heed, and in time it will stop being used because it has no effect. Every time someone says the word “n****r” or “f*g” or any of the other high profile derogatory terms everyone gets so wound up about it. I’m fairly certain that everyone who has a

problem with the word “n****r” want people to stop using it. Granted I was not at this panel, and as a Caucasian male I cannot speak on behalf of the African-American community with any authority. But come on people, it’s really not that difficult to figure out. The world will always have bullies and they will always push the buttons of others in any way they can just because they can. Then by giving these words so much emphasis you are essentially handing them a tool to hurt you with that has a money back guarantee on it. Grow up, we’re not in kindergarten anymore. There is no teacher you can go crying to because someone else called you a bad name and hurt your feelings.

Fact of the matter is that slavery is an integral part of U.S. history, we fought a war with ourselves over it, spent decades fighting for equality, and are still fighting over it for one group or another. No amount of political correctness or sensitivity training will change history, nothing can. Now you can either accept that it happened, and that it was a long time ago, and focus on marching forward into a world where we are all equals. Or you can choose to play the race card every time someone offends you, and disgrace all the work that those before you did to get you to where we are today. We’re all Americans, it does not matter what color you are, we are all equals.

Bloomberg editor inspires future journalists JOURNALIST Continued from PAGE 1

“Joe was one of those great editors that could take a good story and make it great,” McCorry said. “He could also take a poorly written story and make it well-written.” Kevin Miller, a news editor hired by Winski in 1996, was greatly influenced by him. Miller said people loved working with Winski and he edits work that people end up loving. “I called it, ‘Winski dust,’ because he would sprinkle Winski dust on stories and they would come out way better than some of the reporters ever imagined when they were filing the copy in the first place,” Miller said. Winski was not only a good editor and mentor who had a tremendous influence on Bloomberg News, but also a humble, caring and thoughtful friend to his colleagues. McCorry said he remembered after the birth of his first son, Winski not only sent him a congratulatory note, but also several children’s books. “(Winski) was always calm under pressure, he never raised his voice and helped shelter his reporters from the chaos of management above him,” said Noelle Knox, a former reporter who is now editor of the CFO Journal at the Wall Street Journal. Throughout his career, Winski has reported on many national financial issues, one being food inflation. “When I was covering commodities and agriculture, food inflation was a huge issue; food prices were rising rapidly, and taking a lot of consumers’ money,” Winski said. “It was probably the biggest issue I covered at the Wall Street Journal at that time.” After Winski retired from Bloomberg News, Knox got him interested in the Reynolds program as she was a visiting professor at Louisiana State University in 2013. During the spring of last year, Winski applied for the Reynolds visiting professor’s program because he was “getting bored.” “I thought that teaching at the college level for a semester would be interesting and stimulating and maybe steer me in that direction as far as a new career,” he said. Winski teaches basic business reporting at CSUF in his COMM 335 class, and business features writing, COMM 334. These have the same requirements as the normal versions of each course, but with an applied business aspect. As part of the Reynolds program, Winski has more requirements to fulfill for his classes, such as bringing in guest speakers who are working business journalists. Knox worked with Winski

in 1995 to 1996 at Bloomberg News, and she asked him to be a guest speaker in her class at LSU. “I always say that Joe Winski was the best editor I ever had. I was early in my career and I barely knew how to write. I worked as a business reporter for five years, but I learned more at Bloomberg in 18 months than I had in the last 5 years, and Joe Winski was a big part of that,” Knox said. “He would take my raw copy, which was awful, and spin it around and turn it into gold, or as close to gold as it could be.” Another requirement

He recently had Marni Usheroff, a business reporter from the Orange County Register, speak to his students as a way to establish a relationship. Winski said he hopes to do more with the Register in his classes. Winski said business journalism is a relatively good journalism field to enter because there is more interest

in business and the economy as a result of the financial crisis in 2008. “There’s a desire for more understanding of the linkage between what happens in the business world and what happens to the average consumer, and I think that’s one of the things that business journalism can do,” Winski said. In business journalism, there is a constant need for economic and financial news. Specializing in business gives a journalist “a leg up over the competition,” and the growth potential in the field is greater, Winski said. “It helps (journalists) understand, to a great degree, the way the world works,” he said. “Business and the

economy drive a lot of what happens in the world, and I think studying that gives them a greater insight on how the world does work in reality.” Winski said the best part about teaching at CSUF has been getting students interested in writing about business. All communication fields can benefit from the business aspect of journalism, Winski said. Although Winski has many years of journalism experience under his belt, he is happy to have students learn more about business. “Seeing some of the kids get a little bit excited about business has been the most rewarding part so far,” he said.

Students soar with program McNair Scholars help Titans pursue graduate studies KYLE NAULT Daily Titan

ELEONOR SEGURA / Daily Titan Lety Macarty, 22, an art major, is a graphic designer for Associated Students Inc. at Cal State Fullerton. She creates digital posters for concerts at the Becker Amphitheater, discussion groups and other on-campus events.

Major Spotlight ART: Graphic design

Lety Macarty, 22, gets the best of both worlds as an art major at Cal State Fullerton DAVID COATS Daily Titan

Lety Macarty’s job as a graphic designer for Associated Students Inc. at CSUF, along with her passion for design, has helped her be successful in the field she loves. She designs colorful and creative digital posters for Cal State Fullerton concerts at the Becker Amphitheater, discussion groups and events. The 22-year-old art major, who is focusing on graphic design, has been drawing since she was a young child, but uses it as a way to express herself. However, she said she understands that people interpret viewing and creating art differently. “I think art and beauty are very ambiguous terms, because the artwork might have different meaning for different people, some people might be attached to it, and some people might find it disturbing. I think, as artists, we have to follow our own ideas and sentiment,” she said. Macarty spends her time in class listening to lectures, while all of her work is completed on her own time, meaning her dedication comes at a cost. Finding time to see her family and friends has become difficult, but it has taught her that time management is incredibly important when it comes to being able to complete projects on schedule. Macarty said she hears art major students joke around about the entire semester, feeling like it is nothing but midterms and there are always people talking about pulling all-nighters and working on a few hours of sleep. However, she believes being an art major is different than other majors because of critiques. “In art class, we have critiques. We work hours, sometimes days on a single project. It all comes down to that day when everyone gets to rip your project apart, they tell you everything that is wrong with your work all at once,” Macarty said. “Even though it may seem harsh if you’re not used

to it, I think it is the most important part of class. Critique days are where you learn about yourself and what you can and should do to improve.” While the commitment to classes is large, Macarty said she does not mind it and considers herself lucky because she gets to do something she absolutely loves. Macarty is able to do what she loves with the help of her art professors. She said CSUF art professor Theron Moore has been a big influence on her work. Moore understands that many art students put in a lot of time and effort into their work. “People often underestimate the amount of work it takes to complete a bachelor of fine arts degree and succeed as a designer or an artist,” Moore said. “This is true across the discipline, from applied art, such as graphic design, to the fine arts. Art is sometimes thought to be easy and nothing could be farther from the truth.” Macarty designed a magazine in one of Moore’s classes and he said it was her ability to take what she learned in class and apply it to her work that really made it stand out. Moore described Macarty’s work as “visually bold and gutsy.” “She takes risks when it comes to solving problems, which is a really beneficial way of approaching the

creative process. Her work is clever,” Moore said. Macarty gains experience by taking advantage of freelance work. This helps her grow her portfolio and also puts a few extra dollars in her pocket. Moore said one the biggest advantages of being an art major is being able to become involved in the art field while going to school. “Art majors, and graphic designers in particular, have the opportunity to become involved in a creative and interesting profession and also to have a lucrative career,” he said. “Designers have the potential of obtaining the best of both worlds; creativity and good pay.” Macarty said she is not sure what she wants to do once she graduates, but her experience through her internship, work and schooling is helping her figure it out. Although some art students face an uncertain future, Moore sees nothing but good things for Macarty. “Lety is very motivated, smart and creative. She’s also ambitious and personable, and I imagine that she’s capable of opening a lot of doors. Her future is bright to say the least,” Moore said.

One of the most popular phrases that is often repeated in the McNair Scholar program is “Eagles f ly with eagles.” Maricela Medina, a Cal State Fullerton undergraduate enrolled in the program, understands the meaning behind the phrase. “Eagles f ly with eagles is to say you surround yourself with people that have the same common interests and that really see the future, the goal, the overall end,” Medina said. “When you breathe a rare air, only certain people will be up there with you.” The McNair Scholars Program, named after astronaut Ronald McNair, Ph.D., who f lew aboard the Challenger space shuttle, has been helping students pursue their graduate studies and dreams for 28 years. Founded by the United States Department of Education in 1986, the McNair Scholars Program encourages underserved and underrepresented students, providing them with opportunities to work on research projects related to their own fields. The program serves 25 students per year who participate in academic and summer activities up until they graduate. “(The program) shapes (students) because it gives them a new dimension, a dimension they haven’t heard before,” said current interim director Gerald Bryant, Ph.D. “We’re exposing them to a whole new set of ideas and understandings.” Bryant was the program’s director for 13 years prior to his retirement announcement in January. During his tenure, he was responsible for providing assistance and oversight in the student’s selection of a mentoring faculty member. The selected faculty member would then in turn help the individual undergraduate prepare for the next step in the academic world. “A mentor will assist an individual in understanding how to do and be the whole package,” Bryant

said. “We let the students themselves identify the faculty they have made relationships with.” During each academic year, McNair scholars collaborate with their selected faculty member on an outlined research project that allows for the development of specific research skills. “Research projects are actually key in graduate school success,” Medina said. “Graduate school is based on research, so these skills that we are learning now are the things we get to take on there.” To figure out what research would suit her interests best, Medina visited the Psychology Department on campus to find out what research was being conducted by faculty. That is where she found her niche with Jennifer Trevitt, Ph.D., who has a doctorate in the field.

“Eagles fly with eagles is to say you surround yourself with people that have the common interests and that really see the future, the goal, the overall end.” MARICELA MEDINA Student

Trevitt conducts animal research in relation to bio-psychology and neuroscience, and with Medina aspiring to take on a similar role in the field, she felt that the match was a great way to get further involved. “(Trevitt) is my go-to person,” Medina said. “If I have a question on my research, on what I should do next, where to go find articles, all those things that I have questions on she answers for me.” For the life of a McNair scholar, the work meetings continue beyond the paired faculty mentor. Each member also meets with Patricia Literte, Ph.D., the academic coordinator for the program. “I meet with each one of the scholars on a weekly basis,” Literte said. “We discuss where they are in terms of their research projects with their mentors. We also discuss their academic progress and if they are at that point, we also will discuss their graduate Ph.D. applications.” Literte said the most rewarding aspect of being involved with underrepresented students is helping them on a daily basis fulfill their potential. She credits her own mentors as her inspirations while she was in graduate school. Literte serves as a primary example for the scholars. “One of the ways that I am able to reach them is by thinking back to my own experiences in a Ph.D. program,” she said.

Spinning for better cardio Stationary bicycle classes offer a fun way to get healthy JOSEPH ANDERSON TAMEEM SERAJ Daily Titan

Running is often perceived to be the ideal form of cardio activity, but spin classes might be a better overall workout for those looking to keep their heart healthy and their bodies in shape. Students have taken note of the recent increase in the popularity of cycling classes, and seem to find it more convenient than simply running around a track. Vanessa Montero has been taking two spin classes each week at the Student Recreation Center during the spring semester, and has noticed the perks immediately. “It’s motivating to have someone yelling at you to go along with loud music,” Montero said. “I really think it’s much more interesting than traditional running or jogging.” While running still is an excellent form of cardio, it doesn’t offer the same overall workout that an exercise bike does. A 45-minute spinning workout will burn an average of 500 calories, depending on the intensity of the workout. Senior Marc Inocencio takes cycling classes in addition to running on a regular basis, but he said riding the stationary bicycle offers a more well-rounded workout.

“Running is more of a leisure activity for me, whereas spin classes push me to my absolute limit physically,” Inocencio said. “If I’m looking to build more muscle while performing a cardio workout, spin classes are always the choice for me.” Kiana Millar has been teaching multiple fitness classes at the Student Recreation Center at Cal State Fullerton for two semesters now. She enjoys leading the spin classes specifically because of how interactive they are. “Having music to pump you up to go along with a class full of hard-working people brings up everyone’s work ethic,” Millar said. Millar said there are a multitude of workouts anyone can do while cycling, and they work more than just your legs. “I try to incorporate a full body workout into each class,” Millar said. “We do push-ups, quick sprints and endurance building all in the sixty minutes we have together.” A FitDay.com article listed several advantages of spin classes, which include being able to burn calories and build muscle tone while being able to take the classes at any time of the year. A variety of muscles are working while spinning, including the core, buttocks, calves and thighs. Spinning offers flexibility that running outdoors does not. While running may not be possible on certain poor-weather days, being able to cycle indoors offers no risk of inclement weather

affecting your workout. Spin classes also offer less risk for injury than either running or jogging, since it is possible to trip and fall while attempting to run outdoors. The bicycles put less wear and tear on the knees and joints and are a good option for people with arthritis. Another benefit of spin classes is that they can reduce stress. The high intensity of the workout along with the social aspect of the class is a great stress reliever. Having others in the room with you, especially

friends, will keep you motivated and become mentally stronger. Riders can also watch training videos simulating them riding through different scenic spots around the world and allows them to mentally escape. Spin classes are available at the SRC five days a week, and sessions will last from 45 minutes to an hour. Early risers can get themselves moving at 6:30 a.m. Monday through Thursday. For those looking to break a sweat between classes, they can catch a 12:05 p.m.

session on Mondays and Wednesdays. And if the night owls still have energy after classes on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, they can attend a 7:30 p.m. session. There is also one weekend class on Saturday at 12:30 p.m. All classes are held in the Spin Room on the second floor of the SRC. The next time you’re looking for a cardio workout, think about the advantages that cycling classes have over running or jogging outdoors and go hop on a stationary bike with some friends and go for a ride.

DTBRIEFS Titan earns Player of the Week honors Senior guard Michael Williams was named the Big West Conference Player of the Week on Monday. Williams earned the honor after helping the Cal State Fullerton men’s basketball team record a pair of conference wins this past weekend against Cal State Northridge and rival Long Beach State. The wins locked up a Big West Conference Tournament berth for the Titans. The Van Nuys native put up 23 points against the Matadors and 28 against the 49ers for a total of 51 points. Williams shot 60.6 percent in the two games (20-33) and connected on 40 percent of his three-point shots (6-15). The 6’2” guard also pulled down six rebounds and dished out four assists over the weekend to propel the Titans into fifth place in the conference standings. For the season, Williams leads the team in points and assists, averaging 17.9 points and 2.5 assists per contest. Williams also grabs 3.9 rebounds per game. - TAMEEM SERAJ
