Women’s golf ends in sixth at its last fall tournament Titans failed to improve on their first day in Washington AARON VALDEZ Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton women’s golf team closed out its fall schedule Tuesday by placing sixth among 16 teams at the Seattle University-hosted Pat Lesser Harbottle Invitational.

After tying for third place during their first two rounds of play on Monday, the Titans returned to the links the following morning for the final round in hopes of improving their overall position.

However, the team recorded its worst score in the third and final round, with a score of 28over par 316. The Titans shot 62-over par with a cumulative score of 926 overall in the tournament.

Individually, the Titans failed to gain much ground as each player boasted nearly identical numbers in the third round to the ones they earned

in the first two rounds.

Sophomore Brittany Farrell gained a higher score with each passing round but still managed to have the best overall performance.

Farrell shot 1-over par in the first round, 3-over par in the second and 8-over par in the third, for a total score of 12-over par 228. Her efforts placed her in a three-way tie for 15th in the individual standings.

Despite shooting 1-under par in the second round, junior Martina Edberg matched her first round score of 7-over par in the third. She finished the tournament shooting a total of 13-over par with a score of 229, placing her 18th in the standings.

Freshman Felicia Medalla also had a steady outing, recording 6-over par in the first round and 5-over par in both the second and third for a final total of 16-over par 232.

The Titans will not hit the links again until the spring semester for the Gold Rush tournament on Feb. 22 and 23. at the Old Ranch Golf Course in Seal Beach, California.

Rising artist performs Pub Thursday Concert

ALLAN LE / DAILY TITAN

Singer-songwriter Taylor Mathews performed a heartfelt acoustic set this past Thursday as part of ASI’s Pub Thursday Concert series. The artist rose to fame as a top 10 finalist on the reality show “America’s Got Talent” back in 2010.

Taylor Mathews plays ASI’s Pub Thursday Series JENNIE VU Daily Titan Sporting a gray snapback, a faded red flannel, dark jeans and glasses, Taylor Mathews looked like any ordinary college student as he walked around the Titan Student

Union pub, chatting with friends and audience members.

The 24-year-old singer-songwriter performed for students on Thursday as part of ASI’s Pub Thursday Concert series.

Mathews rose to fame when he appeared on “America’s Got Talent” back in 2010 at age 18.

Mathews performed “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” in front of the judges and received “yes” votes from all three,

moving on to the next round.

Mathews made it all the way to the top 10 before he was eliminated.

Usually, runner-up contestants from competition shows seem to disappear after they lose. Not Mathews. He decided to keep pursuing his music.

“For me, I didn’t want to do anything else but music. I love music with my whole heart,” Mathews said.

After he left “America’s Got Talent,” Mathews

continued to work on his dream of becoming a professional singer-songwriter, releasing his first EP, “Head Over Feeling,” in 2011, which debuted in the iTunes Top 40 album chart.

Mathews was later discovered by R5, an American rock band.

As one of their opening acts, he joined the band on two of their tours, performing in cities throughout the United States and Canada.

Dean finalist talks grant strategies Open forum held for the first of three candidates ERICA BUESA Daily Titan After a full day of interviews, Evaon Wong-Kim, Ph.D., spoke at an open forum Tuesday as part of the hiring process to fill the position of dean for the College of Health and Human Development at Cal State Fullerton.

Wong-Kim currently serves as chair of the Department of Social Work at California State University, East Bay. She specializes in breast cancer research, especially in the Asian immigrant population.

Wong-Kim prepared a detailed presentation that outlined her accomplishments,

her current projects at CSU East Bay and what she plans to bring to CSUF should she be hired for the position.

The professor has been the recipient of over $200,000 worth of grants for her work since 1999. These grants have helped to fund research dealing with cancer, diabetes and other health problems and their effect on Asian immigrants and other minorities in the United States. The grants have also funded training and research here and in Asia to raise awareness about breast cancer screening and treatment.

Wong-Kim said that one challenge that health programs face today is the increasing demand for training despite decreasing resources.

Grants have become more difficult to acquire, she said. A grant she applied for last year, for example, was denied.

The grant, which she said

was worth over $3 million, was for gerontology training. She worked with nursing and kinesiology faculty to submit a proposal for the grant, which she ultimately was unable to secure. However, Wong-Kim said she found this grant particularly interesting because it showed a trend in a potential availability of resources from the federal government.

“The problem, though, is it takes a lot to create those kind of grants,” Wong-Kim said. “To do a multidisciplinary (project) is not easy.

You’ve got to know people.”

Training grants could be a new way to access money because of the diversity among students, particularly at CSUF. Diversity works to the university’s advantage when seeking funding, she said.

CSUF to partake in ‘shakeout’ Over 10 million to participate in ‘Great California Shakeout’ WOARIA RASHID Daily Titan

MARISELA GONZALEZ / DAILY TITAN STOCK PHOTO

The classic three-step survival technique was displayed on a sign outside the “Earthquake Cottage” at last year’s shakeout.

Cal State Fullerton students, staff and faculty will participate today and Thursday in the “Great California Shakeout.” Over 10.4 million people in California are expected to take part in this year’s statewide earthquake drill. The annual drill, held since 2008, is designed for people to practice earthquake preparedness in their homes or schools, according to the Great California Shakeout website.

Sue Fisher, CSUF emergency management

coordinator, said the emergency drills are important to participate in so students and faculty know the appropriate thing to do if an earthquake strikes. Wednesday’s drill will commence at 7:10 p.m. and Thursday’s drill will take place at 10:10 a.m.

“I hope that everyone participates,” Fisher said. “It’s important that everyone knows how to ‘drop, cover and hold on.’”

Titans can experience a simulated earthquake with the “8.0 Earthquake Cottage” located in the quad Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The earthquake simulation will be available to students for a longer time than last year Fisher hopes it will enable more students to experience the simulated earthquake.

DTBRIEFS

Cal State Fullerton’s Great Shakeout 2015 website offers a few tips to keep in mind during an earthquake: never run while a building is shaking to prevent injury, wait for the shaking to stop before evacuating and move 50 feet away from buildings. Also, for every earthquake in which things are falling or moving, remember to “drop, cover and hold on.”

The simulations serve as a reminder so that everyone can prepare for an earthquake or any other natural disaster, Fisher said.

A campus-wide message will be sent five minutes before the drill at 10:10 a.m, Thursday to remind students to implement the “drop, cover and hold on” procedure to survive an earthquake.

Periscope helps bust DUI suspect A 23-year-old Florida woman was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after she live streamed herself on the video app Periscope, where she admitted she was driving drunk while slurring in the video, according to CNN. Whitney Marie Beall was arrested by police in Lakeland, Florida on suspicion of DUI. Police began to receive calls from viewers of her live stream about Beall driving drunk in their area on Saturday night.

Beall hit a curb when police stopped her. The police said that she was driving on a flat tire.

“She was out of it.

And it’s obvious from watching that live streaming video how bad she was,” Lakeland police Sgt. Gary Gross said.

“We have diverse students. That’s one thing I think funders like to see,” she said. “The students are from a very diverse background and are very disadvantaged. It makes our proposals stronger.”

Noting that Funding initiatives from the chancellor’s office and the provost’s office can be taken advantage of and invested, she said.

“Resources are ample, even in the CSU system.

Sometimes a little money can go a long way,” WongKim said.

Wong-Kim put a great emphasis on how happy her work makes her.

“In my case, I really enjoy what I do,” she said.

“Even though it’s three different areas — research, teaching and services — I think I was able to do all of them together.”

The forum ended with questions from the audience. Kinesiology Department Chair Bill Beam asked Wong-Kim about student success metrics.

“

We don’t know why they leave.

Nobody collects data on why students don’t want to continue.

EVAON WONG-KIM Finalist, CSUF Health and Human Development Dean search “If you had a choice, what would be those metrics that you would define for students in our college?” he asked.

Wong-Kim noted that while the university collects a lot of data on students when they enter the university, it does not have data on when students leave.

“We don’t know why they leave. Nobody collects data on why students don’t want to continue,” she said. “That could be a metric to say how well we’re doing.”

If students leave because of family issues or external issues, those situations would not reflect poorly on the school, Wong-Kim said.

However, she said, if students feel that faculty are uncaring or unhelpful, that would be a “red flag.”

“We can then look for the resources to prevent that kind of problem,” she said.

“In the long run, that would be a good thing to think about.”

The open forum was followed by a private question and answer session open only to officials of the College of Health and Human Development. The open forum was the first of three that will take place this week in the search for a new dean.

After a student protest at Aliso Niguel High School on Tuesday, school officials said that they will allow hip-hop artists Macklemore and Ryan Lewis to appear on campus, according to the OC Register.

The protest followed student outrage Monday night when school officials said they also declined the $10,000 donation to the music program that came with the appearance of the two artists.

Students at the high school won the prize through a contest held by the book rental website Chegg.

Students said that Principal Deni Christensen told them Monday that the school had declined the donation and appearance because of some parents’ concerns over Macklemore’s lyrics.

Man breaks gasline in Anaheim A motorcycle wreck punctured a gas line in Anaheim Tuesday morning, causing nearly 60 people to be evacuated from three buildings, according to the OC Register.

Around 8:30 a.m., a motorcyclist crashed into a gas line near the intersection of La Palma Avenue and Kraemer Boulevard, Anaheim police Sgt. Daron Wyatt said. The man was riding his friend’s motorcycle through a commercial complex when he wrecked it.

The man was taken to the hospital in critical condition with major head injuries.

The gas company turned the gas off by 9:30 a.m. Shortly before 10 a.m., the 60 evacuees were allowed to return to their buildings.

Resources for senior citizens mapped Issues of the elderly community examined through data mapping CONNIE LEE Daily Titan Students of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at Cal State Fullerton learned how to integrate maps and social data in order to help the elderly find services they need.

Dennis Kao, an assistant professor of social work at CSUF, spoke in a free class hosted by OLLI on Tuesday about his expertise in Geographic Information Systems (GIS).

Kao showed the crowd that maps are more than just tools to find ways around the crowded freeways. Maps can be integrated with social research data in studies to find trends and research solutions to major problems facing the elderly.

After earning a graduate certificate in GIS from the University of Southern California and performing social work and studies, Kao dedicated his career to discovering ways of improving health care for elderly in the United States.

“My interest is around how we locate services. And in Orange County, I think, as people age, it can be particularly challenging,” Kao said.

Orange County is not efficiently set up for the elderly; elderly housing communities are often too far away from essentials like shops and social services,

CONNIE LEE / DAILY TITAN

Cal State Fullerton assistant professor of social work Dennis Kao explains how data mapping in Geographic Information Systems can help identify elderly community issues. Kao said that the data can help Orange County because elderly communities are often too far away from needed resources like shops and social services.

he said.

“Mapping is useful for the planning of social services and particularly with where they’re located,” Kao said. “If we have a better understanding of where people live and issues they’re facing in their communities, we can have a better idea of how to more effectively

and efficiently target our services.”

GIS and mapping have been used for everything from delving into demographics, to examining neighborhood diversity, to counting how many homeless people populate a specific area by age.

Due to Orange County’s sprawling geographic area,

it has been challenging to support the elderly community with the essential infrastructure of services the community needs, Kao said. GIS helps accurately identify elderly communities that need certain services around the county.

OLLI offers classes throughout the semester that focus on giving local seniors

learning experiences.

“It’s pertinent to our audience,” said Janice Jeng, OLLI Vice President of Programs, noting how useful the lecture topic is to the institute. “We can illustrate to our members and board to where our audience is coming from so we can determine our marketing efforts from it.”

At the presentation, OLLI members were visibly thrilled to learn about what map data tracking offers for the future.

“We just did a bootcamp for retirees and we collected data on zip codes and it’s a nice way to illustrate where we’re coming from,” said Joyce Ono, OLLI Vice President of Communication.

After the tour, Mathews began a Kickstarter campaign, raising $26,000 to record his first full-length album and another $10,000 for a YouTube project to build two recording studios in Los Angeles, California and Nashville, Tennessee.

He used the $10,000 to learn about videography and photography.

“I think it’s cool because the fans allowed me to learn,” he said. “I never went to college, so I was never able to be in a position to learn.”

Rather than spending the $26,000 on something luxurious, like a car, Mathews decided to give back to his fans for their support.

His first tour was called “The House Show Tour,” where Mathews traveled to the homes of about 130 different fans across the United States and Canada and put on private performances in their backyards and living rooms.

He wanted a way to connect with his fans, and playing these intimate shows was a great way to interact with them.

Mathews is not currently on tour but is traveling to perform at university campuses and other events around the country.

He brought along his outgoing personality and started his set with an upbeat song to get the vibe going. His entire performance was acoustic.

Mathews said his father tried to teach him how to play guitar when he was a young boy, but he had a stubborn desire to learn on his own.

He taught himself how to play guitar in his room by placing his fingers “where

it made sense.”

During the performance, he was very interactive and had a lot of fun with the audience.

Before he performed his song, “Little Mama,” he asked the audience to participate, telling them what to say, how to say it and when to sing along.

Mathews introduced each song by talking about it and its inspiration.

His songs ranged from

“

It’s just so great to see performers whoa re so involved and so passionate about their work that they can make other people happy just doing it.

“

CHLOE OKURA CSUF Business Major motivational and fun, covering everything from his childhood to important life lessons he learned.

He described his genre as “conversational pop.”

“Whenever I write my verses, it’s a little more storytelling,” Mathews said. “It’s kind of like Taylor Swift, but without the breakup stuff.”

While performing, Mathews closed his eyes, getting lost in the music.

He jumped back and forth between personal and fun, motivational songs.

One minute he’s strumming with his eyes closed as he laments about a breakup, the next he’s dancing around the stage urging the audience to sing along.

His style is similar to artists such as Ed Sheeran and Jason Mraz, both

of whom have inspired him greatly. He also cited OneRepublic and Ben Rector as being sources of inspiration.

For the final song, Mathews performed a cover of Walk The Moon’s, “Shut Up and Dance.”

The audience sang along cheerfully.

Two girls arrived just in time to see the last song and jumped straight into the sing-along.

Mathews noticed one of the girls, Chloe Okura,

and asked her to join him onstage.

Together, the two put on a great performance of the cover.

Okura, 17, is a CSUF business major who is also in a band called Desiah.

Okura said her classes had just ended, and she had decided to come in to see the last 10 minutes of the performance.

Surprised by Mathew’s invitation, she went onstage anyways, saying she appreciated his enthusiasm.

“He was so involved with his audience and you can easily tell he’s having fun onstage,” Okura said.

When Mathews finished his show, he told the audience they were welcome to talk to him afterward.

A few people went over to check out his merchandise table and speak with him. Some even took pictures and got his autograph.

His next event will be a fundraiser in Florida this November.

Until then, Mathews will be traveling back and forth from LA to his home in Nashville while working on his next record and planning a tour for 2016.

In his performance, Mathews showcased his talent and outgoing personality.

“It’s just so great to see performers who are so involved and so passionate about their work that they can make other people happy just by doing it,” Okura said.

CSUF College of the Arts will perform an adaptation of Stephen King’s novel “Carrie.” The musical will bring attention to the impact of bullying while promoting individuality.

‘Carrie: the Musical’ raises questions on social issues Unique twist to the musical will focus on impact of bullying ERICA SHARP Daily Titan Cal State Fullerton’s College of the Arts will perform “Carrie: the Musical,” an adaptation of Stephen King’s novel, on Friday Oct. 16 in the Little Theater.

The Stephen King novel is about 17-year-old Carrie White, who is shunned by her high school peers. Carrie’s only comfort is her mother, Margaret White, who is overly protective of her daughter. She is played by alumna Brooke Aston,.

Carries schoolmates bully her due to her devout, religious life. As Carrie matures, she discovers she has telekinetic powers and uses them to seek revenge on the kids who bullied her.

The script was written by Lawrence D. Cohen, with music by Michael Gore and lyrics

by Dean Pitchford.

Although the subject of Carrie has been used in two movie versions, as well as an earlier musical, CSUF will bring a unique performance mainly through the students’ production design, said Jim Taulli, theater and dance professor and director of “Carrie: the Musical.”

“It’s our version of the telling of the story,” he said.

The legendary prom scene has proved to be the most complicated sequence, trying to make it convincing without being comical was a struggle, Taulli said.

“It’s a very serious topic … and while I don’t expect that it will be frightening, I want it to be taken seriously,” Taulli said.

“We don’t have the capacity to throw people in the air like on Broadway and make people vanish … so we have to find tricks that we can do that that will still be effective.”

Music direction is provided

by Mitchell Hanlon, musical theater and voice instructor, and musical director Hyejin Kim. The play is choreographed by William F. Lett, dance professor.

In order to compensate for the play’s difficulty and keep students safe, the department hired a professional fight choreographer to help stage the scene through donations from the MAMM Alliance for the Performing Arts, a performing arts support group at CSUF. Although the play is known for its horror, it is truly about the immorality of bullying and ultimately raises the question, “what does it cost to be kind?”

Taulli said.

“It reminds us that we are all humans,” Taulli said “We are all human people and we are unique human people and we have to be open the uniqueness of each other.”

“Carrie: The Musical” runs from Oct. 16 to Nov. 1. Tickets are on sale now, and can be purchased at the Clayes Performing Arts Center box office or online at the CSUF College of the Arts website.

General admission is $24, and students and faculty can purchase tickets for $22 with the advance Titan discount.

“Carrie: The Musical” will contain adult content.

Gypsy Den offers peaceful retreat JENNIE VU Daily Titan The Gypsy Den is a quaint eatery that serves healthy, vegan dishes.

A majority of students go to fast food restaurants to grab a quick bite before returning to their studies.

Students are so involved with studying that they don’t always have the time to choose a healthy meal.

Luckily for students, there’s the Gypsy Den, located just a 15 minute drive away in Center Street Promenade in Anaheim.

The Gypsy Den has only three locations and all of them are in Southern California: Costa Mesa, Santa Ana and Anaheim.

The first Gypsy Den opened in Costa Mesa over 20 years ago.

The current owner, Ryan Shuck, was a regular customer who decided to buy the franchise and expand the enterprise.

He wanted to open the restaurants in an area where it seems homey and relaxing.

All locations have a similar interior: various style of paintings hung on dark colored walls, eclectic, wooden furniture and dim lights that give it a vintage style.

The Gypsy Den also has a unique setup in terms of seating.

One half of the dining area has tables and chairs, while the other half has a big couch, cozy chairs and a shelf full of books.

The Gypsy Den perfects the homey ambiance by replicating the feel of a living room.

Each restaurant also has an outdoor patio where patrons can sit and enjoy the weather.

The Gypsy Den in Anaheim has a TV in its dining room, allowing patrons to change the channel as they please.

Right now, the restaurant is decked out for Halloween.

A lot of people come to the Gypsy Den for its hot drinks, which include a chai latte, a hot mocha, teas and cappuccinos.

The casual eatery brings in more customers during the winter because of the cold weather.

There’s even a full bar at the Anaheim restaurant.

The patio isn’t decorated for the holiday, but its yearround decorations are as cozy as ever: white string lights hang above the trees, small red candle votives flicker on every table and a large, wooden fish decorates the wall.

Students often come to the Gypsy Den to study and do homework.

Some sit in a corner of the dining room, while others choose to sit out on the patio because it’s a more peaceful and quiet environment.

Silvia McBee, one of restaurant’s managers and bartenders, described the menu items as “comfort food.”

They serve sandwiches, soups, appetizers and vegan cuisine.

McBee said that some customers’ favorite dishes are the chicken Waldorf

The Santa Ana location plans to open one soon, but the original Gypsy Den in Costa Mesa will not.

It’s a great place to grab a healthy bite, study, hang out and chat with the friendly employees. On select nights, customers can even enjoy performances from local musicians.

Since it’s located in the Center Street Promenade, people can walk up and down the street to check out and enjoy other nearby attractions.

Visitors can check out various restaurants, shops and even the Anaheim Skating Rink.

October is here and it’s the perfect time to come by and enjoy one of their delicious tea or lattes.

The restaurant opens every day at 8 a.m.

It closes at 10 p.m. Sunday through Tuesday, 11 p.m. on Wednesdays and Thursdays and 2 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.

NATALIE GOLDSTEIN / DAILY TITAN

CNN hosted the first round of the Democratic Presidential Debates on Tuesday night. The debate consisted of questions mainly aimed at the two front-runners, Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, and little attention was given to the other candidates. The debate’s entertainment value paled in comparison to the Republican debates.

CNN debate fails to spark interest Democratic debate does not compare to those of the GOP DAVID LEOS Daily Titan Even with a lead-in from President Obama asking for allegiance to the Democratic Party, and a rendition of the U.S. national anthem performed by none other than pop star Sheryl Crow, the first Democratic debates fell well short of the prime-time

entertainment value that the GOP debates offered.

Debates are interesting when there’s an array of candidates talking over each other, when they vehemently disagree via awkward exchanges, engage in personal attacks and take cheap shots at each other, prompting one of the candidates to utter, “stop this childish back-andforth,” as New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie did in the first GOP debate.

The Republican debates had all of these. The sparring match between Rand Paul

and Chris Christie on NRA spying made its own headlines the next day.

Donald Trump and ex-Florida Gov. Jeb Bush had an entertaining exchange about casino gambling, which led Bush to suggest that the GOP front-runner should apologize for a snide comment he had previously made about Bush’s wife.

Trump refused.

Then there was the legendary shootout between Trump and Fox News anchor and debate moderator Megyn Kelly, where Trump said

Kelly had “blood coming out of her wherever,” a comment that referred to her eyes in the beginning and led to other body parts unknown.

Some recalled his statements as sexist and misogynistic.

It was exchanges like these that kept potential voters, even non-Republicans, glued to their TVs, computers and smartphones.

Last night’s Democratic debate was about as interesting as watching a spelling bee on prime time. The answers to Anderson Cooper’s questions, which were

mainly directed at Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton, sounded rehearsed and robotic. When candidates Gov. Martin O’Malley, Gov. Lincoln Chafee and Sen. Jim Webb were asked to explain their views on particular topics, Cooper quickly switched gears and redirected those same questions back to the Sanders and Clintons side of the stage, signaling that the other candidates’ opinions were less relevant.

The five participants

quickly became two, which was further demonstrated when Sanders came to Clinton’s defense when the subject of her email scandal was brought up. They even shook hands.

Despite her email controversy, gaffes, missteps and accusations of her repeated flip-flopping, Hillary Clinton still won this debate. Her real competition, Vice President Joe Biden, was present at the Wynn Hotel and Casino last night, which prompts the on going question: Will he finally run?

Gun control debates need more nuance

Mother of mass shooter has right ideas on gun safety

properly use them.

“When I’m at the range, I cringe every time the ‘wannabes’ show up,” Harper wrote. She appeared to take gun ownership seriously, not flippantly.

In addition to all of this, Harper’s forum posts dealt heavily with another aspect of her life: her son’s mental health issues.

The recent Umpqua College shooting has reignited the debate over gun control. Unfortunately, the delicate debate has had little nuanced discussion, adding to the already hostile political climate, and potentially costing lives.

Given the incredibly sensitive nature of the topic, it is now a wonder that both sides of the argument fall victim to generalizations.

It’s no secret that many gun supporters see stricter laws as a gradual attempt to seize weapons. However, it’s just as easy for proponents of stricter laws to see gun enthusiasts as irrational, even fundamentally bad people.

Laurel Harper, mother of Umpqua College shooter Christopher Harper-Mercer, made several posts online throughout the years — most prominently on Yahoo Answers — expressing her pro-gun sentiments.

In one post, she talks about the loaded Glock and assault rifles she keeps ready.

“No one will be ‘dropping’ by my house uninvited without acknowledgement,” she wrote.

However, just reading through Harper-Mercer’s online posts reveals more about her and the larger gun community. She did not mindlessly advocate guns for all, but rather posted about how to

“

She did not mindlessly advocate guns for all, but rather posted about how to properly use them.

MEGAN TAMBIO For the Daily Titan

That being said, all proponents of gun control are not trying to take away everyone’s firearms. Upon arriving in Oregon to meet with the grieving community, President Obama was greeted by hundreds of pro-gun protesters standing at the airport with signs reading, “Go back to Kenya,” among other things.

All of this because of the perceived threat to their gun ownership.

Even if this were true, it would be a horrifically inappropriate response.

Obama’s now infamous plan for gun reform following the Sandy Hook Ele-

autism spectrum.

She consoled one parent, saying that despite past difficulties, both she and her son had come a long way.

“I was in your shoes and now my son’s in college,” Harper wrote.

In hindsight, this could be seen as Harper’s detriment. She knew her son had issues, but she still advocated for gun rights.

Considering, though, that perhaps this was a person with her own history, beliefs and life, she comes off less as a reason for the Umpqua tragedy, and more so as a well-meaning, perhaps flawed, mother who loved her son.

Gun owners are sometimes painted as uninformed or even callous, and that’s part of the problem that plagues our dichotomous political culture.

mentary shootings actually proposes a strengthening of background checks, incentives for states to make criminal and mental health records more widely available and focuses on more police forces directed towards gun violence and crimes.

Understanding that it is possible to be a passionate gun owner and to still be responsible and good-hearted is part of the overall solution. It is something else completely in understanding that tightening up certain gun ownership regulations does not undermine this lifestyle.

Perhaps with more empathy, gun control can be seen as an issue of a tightly held culture and a sincere effort to safely enjoy it, rather than two opposing sides.

The Titans have improved after starting their season with two losses, managing a 2-1-1 record so far in the Big West Conference. Now Fullerton’s young unit needs to earn its spot in the tournament, starting with its games against Cal State Northridge and UC Irvine.

Titans prep for division games Men’s soccer enters last stretch before the Big West Tournament HAYLEY M. SLYE Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton men’s soccer team will take on two Big West South Division opponents this weekend when they face the Cal State Northridge Matadors and the UC Irvine Anteaters.

The Titans have been strong this year and will look to continue their success the closer they get to the playoffs. More than halfway into the season, the Titans are 7-5-1 overall, and first in the Big West South.

The Titans will face a tough opponent in the Big West Conference Defensive Player of the Week, Northridge senior

goalkeeper Adam Hobbs.

Hobbs has had 15 saves in his last two games. Hobbs’ excellent play is in stride with the Matadors’ strong defensive line, another obstacle for the Titans.

The Matadors overall have been solid, with a 5-52 record to show for it.

Offensively, senior midfielder Carlos Gonzalez and sophomore forward Dean Wright have the best numbers for the Matadors, having scored six goals between them. Wright is doing well to score his goals, while also leading Northridge with four assists.

The Anteaters will be a different story. Going into Saturday’s matchup, Irvine has lost its last two games in overtime, and tied the one before that. They are 2-8-3 on the season, and last in the Big West South.

The Anteaters have yet to win a game against a

CSUF will have to play its best to stay at the top of the Big West South Division. Coming off a loss and a tie, the Titans will have to get into their winning form again to make an impact in the Big West.

Hall of Fame will induct its sixth class of honorees CSUF and Fullerton Athletics are set for its bi-annual ceremony HAYLEY M. SLYE Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton Athletics Hall of Fame will induct its sixth class of honorees Thursday in its biannual event to recognize those who have contributed to improving CSUF. The Hall of Fame inducts new classes of alumni, people and organizations for their major contributions to the Titan legacy. This year’s inductees are Neale Stoner, Jenny Topping, Ted Silva, Mark Covert, Paul Folino and Associated Students Inc. They will join over 20 other former Titan students and administrators who have been recognized for their success on and off the field.

Among the inductees, three have had considerable success on the field. Topping earned four major offensive records during her three years with the CSUF softball team. She won multiple All-American awards during that time, and went on to play for the U.S. national team and win a gold medal with the 2004 U.S. Olympic team.

ELEONOR SEGURA / DAILY TITAN STOCK PHOTO

Cal State Fullerton will celebrate the accomplishments and contributions of its valued benefactors.

Silva is a two-time All-American and was the ace for the 1995 championship CSUF baseball team, which was inducted to the Hall of Fame as a team in 2013. Silva had a 2.92 career earned run average and is third in all-time saves for Fullerton.

Covert, for whom the Mark Covert Classic cross-country event is named after, was a track star for Fullerton in the ‘70s. He earned national recognition for a streak in which he ran at least one mile a day for 16,437 days.

The other three inductees are being honored for their off-the-field success. During Stoner’s term as athletic director from 1972-1979, certain athletic programs earned Division I status. It was also under his reign that the baseball team won six consecutive conference championships, along

with fellow Hall-of-Famer Augie Garrido at the helm.

Folino will be honored for his financial construction of CSUF’s golf program, as well as his significant donations to the Mihaylo College of Business and Economics and his overall philanthropy in Orange County.

ASI will be recognized for its organizational contributions to the CSUF athletics department. It has consistently supported athletic initiatives, including the Student Success Initiative, which provides the department with funding for scholarships and facility improvements.

The event will take place at the Phoenix Club in Anaheim at 6 p.m. on Oct. 15. Tickets are $90 each and attendees should register at the Fullertontitans website.
