Office Professor combines love theft for running with nursing baffles faculty Laptop stolen from Kinesiology building SPENCER CUSTODIO Daily Titan A university-owned, $1,300 Mac laptop was stolen in an unlawful entry of an office on the second floor of the Kinesiology and Health Science Building Oct. 5, according to University Police. Campus police are unsure if the incident involved a forced entry into the small office, said Capt. Scot Willey. He said that some of the second floor doors in the building are old and that even if they are locked, the doors can still be forced open. Police had no leads as of Monday night. They entered the laptop’s serial number in the Stolen Property System, a national database containing information that helps law enforcement identify stolen goods and burglary suspects, Willey said.

Elaine Rutkowski, assistant professor of nursing at Cal State Fullerton, is an avid runner and is passionate about living a healthy lifestlye in order to inspire others. She has competed in triathlons and marathons, training by running up to 50 miles a week.

Elaine Rutkowski shows passion for healthy lifestyles JESSICA BUTALLA Daily Titan Plaques and multiple shelves of educational books surround the desk of Elaine Rutkowski’s, Ph.D., but the most eye-catching item is her array of marathon ribbons.

Rutkowski, Cal State Fullerton assistant professor of nursing, is an avid marathon runner and is known for tying her healthy lifestyle into her nursing courses. She teaches community health nursing, professional nursing and the master’s program’s final project. Born and raised in Pennsylvania, Rutkowski moved to California in the early 1980s when she was offered a nursing job in Newport Beach. She said the first

time she and her husband were inspired to start healthy lifestyles was in 1984 when they saw a group competing in bike racing for that year’s Olympics. “It takes 90 days to break a habit and five years to become accustomed to a lifestyle,” Rutkowski said. She and her husband were married for 15 years, training for marathons and activities together, before deciding to have kids. Now married for 38 years, they

have a 19-year-old son and a 24-year-old daughter. The two raised their kids into their healthy lifestyle, brought them along to marathons during family vacations and made sure Sunday family runs were always a priority. Rutkowski ran the Boston Marathon six times, the last one being in 2011. She was told, “People who run in marathons are selfish” because of all the work that is dedicated to training.

Rutkowski ran up to 50 miles a week to train for the Boston Marathon; however, she was still able to incorporate her family into her training. Rutkowski also participated in triathlons from 1985 to 1996. She said she hated the open water portion because she is petrified of sharks. However, she now swims four to five times a week because running is hard on her joints. SEE NURSE

LGBTQ Center provides safe space Students find acceptance and comfort in TSU VIVIAN PHAM Daily Titan Toward the end of David Sanchez’s senior year at La Habra High School, he finally decided to reveal his sexual orientation. Sanchez sat, tired and rugged, with five of his closest friends from the soccer team after their practice. The sky was getting dark. His mind raced. “I thought that they weren’t going to be my friends anymore. I thought maybe they were going to get creeped out … I was playing worst case scenarios in my head,” Sanchez said. Yet his thoughts did not materialize as his friends expressed their acceptance. “They were really receptive. They just said, ‘You know, we kind of knew, and we didn’t want to say anything, but we’re happy for you. Just be yourself,’” Sanchez

said. By the end of his sophomore year at Cal State Fullerton, Sanchez became involved with Associated Students Inc.’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender/Queer Resource Center through the Queer Straight Alliance club. The center started in 2012 to provide an inclusive community for all LGBTQ students, regardless of gender identity, gender expression or sexual identity, according to the LGBT/Queer center’s webpage. “It’s a place where they can go and sit down and know that they don’t have to deal with the microaggressions that most queer individuals have to deal with in their daily lives,” said Anthony Ragazzo, director of ASI’s LGBT/Queer Resource Center and ASI’s Leader and Program Development. “It’s a place where students find opportunities to connect and to meet students … to seek out help or to find resources.” SEE CENTER

Theft: Police have no leads CONTINUED FROM

When University Police arrest someone, the items on that person will be checked against the Stolen Property System database to see if they are stolen, Willey said. The Department of Kinesiology is difficult for police to secure because it’s a high traffic building, Willey said. When University Police lock it up for security, it doesn’t stay locked for very long. He also said that burglary and theft reports from there are rare. It is a very busy building and the faculty does a good job of locking up, said kinesiology department chair

Kavin Tsang. He said he hasn’t heard of any doors that could be forced open, even while locked. “I would imagine that people would have to put excessive force in order to open those doors,” he said. Faculty on the second story of the Kinesiology and Health Science Building said that they have not heard anything about the incident as of Monday night. They also said that they found it alarming that some of the doors can potentially be opened even while locked. First degree burglary is punishable by up to six years in prison, according to the California Penal Code.

Editorial

DTBRIEFS

The Cal State Fullerton Department of Sociology and the Alpha Kappa Delta International Sociology Honor Society are hosting “Religious Talks,” a three day symposium examining religion’s relationship between individuals and society. All the symposium events will be held in the TSU Pavilion and will cover topics ranging from people who experience visions of deities to religious controversies, and even religion’s

influence in feminism and family matters. The series of talks started on Monday and will run until Wednesday, when there will be a presentation by keynote speaker Richard Flory, associate research professor of sociology at the University of Southern California. Jason Sexton, Fullerton Honors Program lecturer, described Flory as a “true bada**” in the field of sociology and religion. Sexton said that it’s a privilege to have Flory as a keynote speaker for the sociology department’s week of events. Sexton knows Flory through his contributed work to Sexton’s book, “Theology and California.” “Flory’s analyses are always careful and

perceptive,” Sexton said, referring to Flory as a distinguished CSUF alumnus. “His sociologist’s response to the question of whether there’s a ‘theology of California’ in my recent book has been a real hit with my Honors Critical Thinking students.” Flory’s talk tomorrow will be about “The Spiritual and Religious Lives of Young(er) Adults.” The talk will primarily focus on young adults and their disaffiliation with religion, and whether or not those youth with no religious identity or affiliation live solely secular lives with no spiritual or religious connotations. Flory will wrap up the talk series Wednesday at 3:15 p.m. in the Titan Student Union, Pavilion C.

Finalists for dean search visit campus Open forums with finalists will be held through Thursday ERICA SHARP Daily Titan The three finalists in the search for a new dean for Cal State Fullerton’s College of Health and Human Development will be visiting campus this week for a series of interviews. The chosen candidate will replace interim dean Jessie Jones. The new dean will serve as a board member on both the Council of Deans and the President’s Advisory Board. He or she will report to the Vice President of Academic Affairs and be expected to oversee the college’s finances, develop short and long range plans and provide support to college department programs, according to the job description on CSUF Search. Each candidate must have a doctorate degree and have

experience with diversity, budget management and faculty management. Candidates must also have administrative experience either as a dean, associate dean or department head. Evaon Wong-Kim, Ph.D., professor and chair of the Department of Social Work at Cal State University, East Bay, will be first to speak Oct. 13. Wong-Kim has served on numerous health committees, including being a founding board member of the Intercultural Cancer Council, which works nationally to decrease rates in cancer mortality. Laurie A. Roades, Ph.D., Associate Dean for Academic Personnel and Resources at Cal Poly Pomona, will speak Oct. 14. Roades is a licensed clinical psychologist. As a professor, she focused on issues related to mental health. She was chair of the psychology and sociology departments at Cal Poly Pomona, overseeing budget, scheduling and curriculum review.

Miguel A. Perez, Ph.D., Internship and Undergraduate Curriculum Coordinator of the Department of Public Health at Cal State University Fresno, will conclude the forum series Oct. 15. As a health educator and winner of over 40 awards, Perez works to improve cultural competence and international adolescent health issues. Throughout the day, each candidate will meet with various on-campus groups—such as the Academic Senate Executive Committee—student organizations, college chairs and the president’s cabinet. The finalists will also speak in an open forum, which members of the CSUF committee are encouraged to attend. Feedback forums that assess the candidates’ strengths and weaknesses are available online for comment. Each of the open forum meetings will be held in the O’Brien room of Steven G. Mihaylo Hall 3230 between 2 and 3 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday.

Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill that prohibits public schools from using “Redskins” as the name of their sports teams, according to the Associated Press. Four California schools will have to change their mascot as a result of the legislation. The term has previously been under scrutiny as the name of the National Football League’s Washington, D.C. franchise. The team has taken no action to change the name, despite protests by Native American groups that consider the term a racial slur. The law was one of a few sports-related bills signed on Sunday, and will go into effect in 2017. - HAYLEY M. SLYE

Suspect arrested for hit-and-run A man was arrested Monday morning in Garden Grove after being accused of assault with a deadly weapon and crashing a stolen car, according to the OC Register. Garden Grove police pursued the suspect through city streets in Santa Ana and Fountain Valley to Garden Grove before he crashed into a moving vehicle at the intersection of Euclid Street and Trask Avenue around 7 a.m. While the suspect remained unnamed, he had been arrested for possession of a stolen vehicle, felony evading and hit-and-run driving. The suspect was treated for minor injuries. The condition of the other driver involved in the accident is unknown. Part of the intersection was blocked for the investigation. - JASON ROCHLIN

Dentist cleared on poaching Minnesota dentist Walter J. Palmer will not be charged in the killing of Cecil the lion, according to the New York Times. The Zimbabwe government announced Monday that not only will the charges be dropped for Palmer, but he is also “free to come, not for hunting, but as a tourist.” The killing of Cecil sparked controversy over animal rights advocates. Palmer was a victim of attacks on social media websites which led him to close his dental practice for more than a month. Palmer was once seen as a “foreign poacher,” but Zimbabwe found his documentation to be legitimate. - JESSICA BUTALLA

The health center offers some relief and information on dealing with heat exhaustion. Chief Staff Physician Richard Boucher said emergency rooms are the best equipped places for treatment.

Doctor gives tips to beat the heat Signs of heat stroke range from dry skin to mental changes BOBBIE URTEZ Daily Titan Although it is fall, temperatures continue to reach the high 90s, leaving people susceptible to both heat exhaustion and heat stroke. The heat took its toll Saturday when 60 people were affected with heat-related illnesses at the Placentia Heritage Festival and Parade, according to the OC Register. Spectators who suffered from heat exhaustion, randing from children to senior citizens, were taken to local hospitals for treatment. Some students from the Temescal High School marching band dropped out of the

parade because of heat exhaustion, having run out of drinking water earlier in the morning. Heat stroke differs from heat exhaustion in that it is considered a medical emergency, said Richard Boucher, chief staff physician of the Student Health and Counseling Center (SHCC). The main symptoms to look for in heat exhaustion are changes to a person’s mental state, Boucher said. Other signs include heavy sweating, muscle cramps, weakness and nausea. On the other hand, heat stroke symptoms include high body temperatures, confusion, hot and dry skin and a strong, rapid pulse. Those in danger of heat stroke could also have headaches and may be on the verge of unconsciousness. There are no available

numbers on heat stroke incidents because it may be one of the most under-reported conditions people experience, according to the Health Research Funding website. If someone experiences heat exhaustion, he or she should be moved to a shady area and begin cooling his or her body with a wet cloth placed on their forehead, Boucher said. Be sure to gradually cool the victim’s body. Cooling the body rapidly, such as dunking it in extremely cold water, can cause an individual to go into shock, according to the Health Research Funding website. The victim should also avoid work for the rest of the day. If someone starts to show symptoms of heat stroke on campus, it is best to take them to an emergency room instead of the

university health center, Boucher said. That way there is no “delay of care” in the event that

the SHCC doesn’t have all the proper equipment, such as intravenous fluids, Boucher said. Individuals unsure of

whether or not they are experiencing heat exhaustion should get evaluated at the SHCC, Boucher said.

Preventing heat exhaustion The CSUF Health and Counseling center gives the following tips to avoid heat exhaustion: Drink plenty of water. • Don’t wait until you are thirsty. • Sports drinks may help replenish electrolytes. • Extremely cold drinks may cause stomach cramps.

Wear appropriate clothing. • Light, loose-fitting clothing is optimal.

Stay away from direct sunlight. • When unavoidable, wear a hat. • Apply sunscreen with a high SPF.

Keep exercise to a minimum. • Only work out before high noon.

Check on high-risk individuals. • Children and the elderly may be more susceptible to heat-related illnessess. • Never leave children or pets in your car.

Center: Resources connect students CONTINUED FROM

The LGBT/Queer Resource Center holds a plethora of events depending on an individual’s interests and needs. Discussion groups such as T* Time, 1 Girl 5 Queers, Queer Code: Ladies Group and Queer Talks allow students to talk about a variety of topics and issues within the LGBTQ community. Programs like Developing Queer Leaders, Safe Space Training and Titan Talks are also provided at the center. “The Safe Space Training program is an opportunity for faculty, staff and students at Cal State Fullerton to become more aware of how to support the LGBTQ community and some challenges that are faced by them,” said Brianna Sérráno, LGBT/ Queer Resource Center’s coordinator. Sérráno said that the Safe Space Training program helps people talk about matters such as what to do if somebody comes out to them, how to help students navigate their identities and which resources on campus they could refer students to. Sanchez, a senior double majoring in health science and Spanish, started coming out to more of his friends, family members and co-workers after seeing his friends’ reactions that day by the soccer field. “They almost acted like they didn’t care … I prefer it to not be a huge deal, so for them treating it like it wasn’t a big deal, but still accepting of it, that was perfect,” Sanchez said. “That prompted me to be more comfortable with talking about it to other people.” Now as the president of the Queer Straight Alliance club, Sanchez strives to create an inclusive environment for his members.

By taking on a leadership role, he said he has become more tolerant of others through discussions about gender identity and sexual orientation. “I’m a cisgender male who is gay and that’s very, to put it straightforwardly, simple,” Sanchez said. “There’s people that have much more complex identities, so I learn about that and it helps me grow as a person.” For more information, go to the LGBT/Queer Resource Center website to discover more of what they offer.

Nurse: Teacher leads by example CONTINUED FROM

While the Olympics inspired her healthy lifestyle, Rutkowski said the “Cherry Ames” books inspired her nursing career. During the ‘70s, women mainly chose between becoming a teacher, nurse or secretary. After reading the mystery novel series, her desire to become a nurse grew, Rutkowski said. Rutkowski completed her bachelor’s from Villa Maria School of Nursing in Gannon University, and her master’s in nursing at the University of Pennsylvania. Nowadays, Rutkowski researches obesity and specializes in adolescents and families. She uses the term “affluenza,” which describes children from wealthy families who are less active than those from low-income families because they remain stationary on expensive toys. Rutkowski’s research showed that active parents do not have active children, and non-active parents have active children. Rutkowski designed a tool called AORK (Adolescent, Obesity, Risk, Knowledge). This tool comprises of a 10item questionnaire for children to answer about their weight. The questionnaire results indicated that pediatricians did not have a comfortable way to bring up the weight conversation with overweight kids, Rutkowski said. So she decided to create a way to better gauge obesity issues with children. “I offered to design a test

with true and false questions regarding risk behaviors that contributed to weight gain that the adolescents and their parents could complete,” she said. “It has taken several years and many tests of the instrument to finally reach the metrics that allow the AORK to be used in the clinical setting.” While working on this publication, Rutkowski is also working on a publication with one of her past CSUF graduate students, Adriana Velez. She said this publication is about posture and physical health “for nursing students as a means of educating them prior to joining the workforce in avoiding musculoskeletal disorders that often lead to nurses leaving the nursing profession.” “We were coincidentally paired together in my last year of the Entry Level Master of Science in Nursing Program. We immediately realized that we shared the same passion for health and wellness, so we worked very well together,” Velez said. “She always gave me her honest opinion and I always felt like she cared so much for me to succeed.” To Rutkowski, fitness means being the best you can in all dimensions: spiritual, emotional and social. She said she believes that running helps all three. “Without touching a patient, Elaine saves lives,” said Jo-Anne Andre, CSUF School of Nursing faculty member. Andre recalled a time in Rutkowski’s career when she changed the life of a

continued after. “When she came to my office asking to be directed to Elaine’s office, she had lost and kept off over 100 pounds,” Andre said. “This

is a remarkable effect from having one assignment from a faculty member in one class!” Rutkowski teaches students that even though

people are busy, it is important to start a healthy lifestyle now. She said everyone should start thinking about disciplining themselves for a lifetime of healthy habits.

Confederate pride verges on hate crime

Hate group indicted on street gang charges for terrorizing party ZACK JOHNSTON Daily Titan Supporters of flying the Confederate battle flag are on the verge of crossing the narrow line between history conservationists and hate groups. Fifteen members of the Confederate flag supporters group “Respect the Flag” were indicted by a grand jury for disturbing a group of African-American residents attending a child’s outdoor birthday party last July in Douglasville, Georgia, according to 11Alive, a local Atlanta news station. A video of the incident taken by one of the partygoers shows a group of pickup trucks adorned with Confederate and American flags leaving the scene as police handled the situation. A partygoer is heard saying, “I don’t feel safe at all,” while another accuses one of the group members of threatening her. The 15 group members were indicted for violating Georgia’s Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act, according to 11Alive. What was perhaps once a group for upholding American heritage and honoring the soldiers who fought and died for the Confederacy

A grand jury indicted members of the Confederate flag supporters group, Respect the Flag, for violating Georgia’s Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act after an incident involving a child’s birthday party. The group is quickly moving away from historical conservation and is becoming a hate group.

has entered into the realm of domestic terrorism. Those who support the display of the Confederate flag have every right to hold whatever opinions they have about the flag and what it represents, but when people’s safety is in question, action must be taken. “We respect the rights of

all citizens to exercise their First Amendment right. But we’re going to require them, when doing that, to respect the rights of all of the citizens to feel safe and secure,” said Douglas County district attorney Brian Fortner, who delivered the news of the indictments. Confederate flag

supporters can label the incident however they wish, but what it boils down to is a crime targeted specifically at African-Americans. Atlanta attorney Page Pate told 11Alive that the street gang charges being used are a creative way to handle hate crimes, considering that Georgia has no

hate crime laws. With indictments such as these, there will hopefully be a decline in the prevalence of Confederate-supporting groups preaching hate, rather than history. The existence of the Confederacy is an unfortunate part of American history, but it is history nonetheless.

However, that is not grounds for anyone to take pride in displaying a symbol of hate, let alone commit acts of terrorism. If groups like Respect the Flag continue this kind of terrorist activity, they are going to have to start to be called what they really are: hate groups.

Smokeless tobacco ban benefits public health HAYLEY M. SLYE Daily Titan Gov. Jerry Brown approved Assembly Bill 768 on Sunday, banning the use of smokeless tobacco on the playing field at California’s professional baseball stadiums. The bill is an appropriate regulation that seeks to destabilize the culture of smokeless tobacco use at all levels of baseball.

The bill states that the widespread use of smokeless tobacco in professional baseball is of “statewide interest and concern.” It is meant to protect “impressionable youth” from wanting to use smokeless tobacco, as well as prompt Major League Baseball to adopt a similar nationwide ban. Assembly Bill 768 is a responsible regulation on an organization that has failed to regulate smokeless tobacco on its own. Smokeless tobacco is already banned in the 12 Minor League Baseball stadiums in California, and MLB players across the

league are prohibited from carrying tobacco on their uniforms in the presence of fans and during pregame and postgame interviews. A league-wide ban has been opposed by the Major

However, California law would not be prohibiting MLB players from using the substance at all; it would just be prohibiting them from using it when they are in a professional

Just last year, Hall of Famer and former San Diego Padre Tony Gwynn, who died from mouth cancer, adamantly said that the cancer was caused by his smokeless tobacco use. Players are not allowed to smoke cigarettes during games; smokeless tobacco should not be any different. Ultimately, Major League Baseball is a

OPINION Columbus Day needs to be rethought

PAGE 6 OCTOBER 13, 2015 TUESDAY

CONNIE LEE Daily Titan Columbus Day has justified days off of school and work for decades, but now the holiday could cease to exist completely. Christopher Columbus’ dark history involving the indigenous people of the Americas has spurred a groundswell of support to get rid of the holiday, particularly from Native American groups. Expunging, or even changing, Columbus Day should be carried out sooner rather than later. California and Texas have already stopped giving workers the holiday off, and Albuquerque, New Mexico and St. Paul, Minnesota are working on changing the holiday. New York is making an effort to honor Native Americans on the day with powwows, or traditional Native American social gatherings. There’s no doubt that Columbus Day is a part of American history and

tradition. People could argue it shouldn’t be taken out of the calendar for that reason alone. However, the treacherous things Columbus did are also part of the history of the Americas and shouldn’t be overlooked. Those seeking to support

the holiday should look at just how ugly things got when the explorer arrived in the Americas. Documents from Columbus’ travels include vivid descriptions of how he victimized indigenous American people, who were there long before he was. After arriving in the Americas, Columbus took indigenous Americans as prisoners to help him in his search for gold. Despite gold being in short supply in the places he searched, his prisoners had no choice but to keep searching or die in captivity, according to “A People’s History of the United States,” by Howard Zinn. He also convinced

committed these crimes today, the public would brand him a monster. Although these acts were committed 500 years ago, indigenous Americans rightfully still

feel a sense of anger regarding Columbus. Columbus is quoted in past writings calling Indians “naive” and saying that “they would make fine servants.”

Someone who is able to cause that much tragedy for fame and self-indulgence should not be celebrated, no matter how long America has been honoring the holiday.

CSUF in top 3 at Lesser Invite Women’s golf had a strong first day at its last fall tournament RYAN PORTER Daily Titan Day one of the Pat Lesser Harbottle Invitational is in the books as the Fullerton women’s golf team took to the links Monday in a 16-team playing field. The Titans have found room to improve on their already solid season, tying for third place out of 16 teams in the first round of the Seattle University-hosted tournament. CSUF sophomore Brittany Farrell led her team through the first round of play at the Tacoma Country and Golf Club. Regardless of a gusting 7.4 mph southwest wind, she still managed to rank fifth overall in individual standings after the first round. She shot a 1-over par in the first round, outscoring fellow teammate Martina Edberg. Farrell’s four birdies on the round would outset her five bogeys to end the round on a high note. Edberg, Fullerton’s recent top player, shot a respectable 7-over par. She had a steady start at the beginning of the round with four pars over, but fell off her rhythm, committing several bogeys, then tacking on a double bogey in the 14th hole. Regardless of how she played in the first round, Edberg made a statement in the second round by shooting even before sinking birdies on the 11th and 13th hole. She went on to sink consecutive birdies in the first hole and 18th hole to complete her day seventh overall, trailing Farrell by two positions. Edberg wasn’t the only Titan to change her luck in the second round. Freshman Pauline Welker, who struggled in the first round shooting 21over par, took control of her swings and shot 10-over par, improving her score by 11 points. The Titans had a strong first day on the links, tying for third in the standings. Two exceptional outings from Farrell, Edberg and Felicia Medalla helped give the Titans a great position heading into the final round as they trail Idaho to potentially move up a few spots in the rankings. The Titans will walk the course Tuesday morning for the final round at the Tacoma and Country Golf Course.

Titans bounce back after loss The ice hockey team had a hard time at home during the weekend ALAN BERNAL Daily Titan Cal State Fullerton’s ice hockey club team faced off against stiff competition this weekend, as it lost to Loyola Marymount University Friday before beating out the USC Trojans Saturday. The Titans were stunned in the first period of play against the LMU Lions, giving up three goals in the first period of play. LMU and CSUF both gave an offensive effort as both teams combined for 32 shots before the first intermission. Although the Titans did their best to keep the pressure on the visitors, Lions point leader Trevor Tracy struck first in the seventh minute to get LMU the edge at 1-0. Fullerton’s penalties racked up early in the game, giving the Lions’ power-play unit many opportunities to capitalize. The LMU offense produced two goals off a man advantage, giving the Lions a 3-0 lead to end the first period. The Titans were able to get two goals back in the second period, and it
