Ballet Folklórico dances into the heart of culture

Health service center to open CSUF partners with city to aid lowincome youth MICAH AUGIMERI-LEE Daily Titan

Ballet Folklórico de Cal State Fullerton provides students the opprotunity to learn about Mexican culture through traditional Mexican dance. The club performs a new style of dance from different states or regions of Mexico every semester. The club, founded in 2007, hopes to teach students the importance of family as well as culture.

Dancers connect with traditional Mexican heritage KRISTIANA GUZMAN For the Daily Titan Steady vibrations travel across the floor as feet tap along its surface. Sharp, precise movements are in

full display throughout the room while upbeat music echoes in the crowded practice space. Women position their hands firmly at their hips while men keep theirs at their side. In sync with the rapidly-paced music, members of the Ballet Folklórico de Cal State University Fullerton club emit just as much passion in their movements as they do in their culture.

Ballet Folklórico, simply put, is an art. It’s an art that is expressed through traditional Mexican dance, said Joselyn Hernandez, president of the BF de CSUF club and a fourth-year member. The BF de CSUF club, founded in 2007 by Christopher Sandoval, emphasizes the rich history of Ballet Folklórico, which varies in dance styles, songs and attire depending on state and

region of Mexico. “We really pride ourselves in teaching each other the history about the states and also teaching each other the steps,” said Hernandez, a kinesiology major. BF de CSUF meets every Monday and Tuesday. Jose Vasquez, the club’s artistic director, is in charge of teaching the members Folklórico dances. He attends different workshops every

month to learn the traditional dances of various states in Mexico. “Folklórico is an ever-evolving process. It developed in the little pueblos in Mexico as a community-type event,” Vasquez said. “It evolved into something that allowed us to present our heritage to others.” SEE DANCE

The Fullerton City Council approved a partnership between the city’s Parks and Recreation Department and Cal State Fullerton at last week’s council meeting, which resulted in handing the Richman Neighborhood Center to CSUF’s Center for Healthy Neighborhoods project. The overall goal of the program is to provide the community — particularly in areas of low income — with a means to access important health services, said Jessie Jones, Interim Dean of the College of Health and Human Development. “It is a privilege and it is a duty, I think, as a public university to help lift our communities,” Jones said. “We have to give hope to those who are in the low-income communities so that they don’t continue the cycle of poverty.” Student involvement will be a major aspect of the free services provided by the center, Jones said. Students in fields such as social work, counseling, nursing and child and adolescent studies will be able to get experience in their field. SEE HEALTH

Professor embraces verbal variety Fellowship supports scholar’s unique research DANIELLE ORTENZIO Daily Titan Bonnie Farrier, Ph.D., has a youthful demeanor and an infectious laugh at 31 years old, but her age is no barrier when it comes to her research studies. She received the 2015-2016 American Postdoctoral Fellowship Award for her research entitled “Linguistic Gifts: Teaching African American Verbal Tradition to College Writers.” Farrier’s research focuses on communication in African-American cultures. She encourages verbal traditions as ways of communicating, a technique of which not all scholars approve. The widely accepted approach

is to encourage the transition of non-standard language varieties such as Ebonics or Spanglish to a more mainstream, standard type of English. “Writers from all different races, ethnicities and backgrounds use those verbal traditions and ways of communicating in their writing. It’s not something that you want to change; it’s something you want to get better at,” Farrier said. “I get a lot of resistance to that.” Farrier’s research began while in the graduate program at Michigan State University as her dissertation project in 2012. Her focus was on African-American literacy. The research consisted of fieldwork, in which she was able to teach a class of students for two weeks on the concept of verbal tradition. SEE BOOK 6

“Napalm Girl,” one of the most iconic photos taken from the Vietnam War in 1972, shows five Vietnamese children running down a road with one girl, Kim Phuc, naked and crying with her arms flinging out, according to the Guardian. Phuc was a victim of the napalm airstrike. She suffered major burns all over the back, neck and arms. Phuc, now 52, has begun a series of laser treatment to help fade the scars and relieve the pain she still suffers forty years later. She is seeking treatment by Jill Waibel, M.D., at Miami Dermatology and Laser Institute. Waibel has used lasers to treat burns, napalm burns included, for the last decade. She offered to donate her services to Phuc. - JENNIE VU

Health: Project aims to help youth 1

One of the project’s priorities is to support local children, Jones said. She stressed the importance of young people having mentors, adding that she wouldn’t be in her current position if someone hadn’t stepped up and taken on that role in her life. CSUF students supporting the program can become mentors for local children. Another major goal of the center, which is currently in development, is to provide mental and behavioral health services, Jones said. Children and adolescents could often suffer long wait times to receive these important services. “They’re killing themselves before they can get service,” Jones said. “I don’t know what’s going on in our society, exactly, but there’s a huge increase and there’s not enough services.” Because of the stigma associated with seeing a counselor or a therapist, the center will also be offering unique therapeutic

experiences to assist those seeking help, Jones said. For example, the project will be teaming up with the College of the Arts to put on plays where elementary and high school students can express social issues they may be experiencing.

Book: Researcher explores language 1

A pre-survey given to the students showed that the majority of the class had a very negative concept of certain terms such as “Ebonics.” Farrier’s goal was to see if their attitudes would change after her class. She succeeded. In a post-survey, Farrier said they learned about the tradition and history and were able to demonstrate their knowledge of that. The American Association of University Women awarded Farrier a fellowship for her to continue her research studies and manuscript, which could result in the possible publication of a book. AAUW is dedicated to supporting research and scholarships for women who are doing innovative work within the community. “To have an organization like that saying, ‘We support your research, we support you, you’re on the right track,’ that really empowered me and restored my confidence as a scholar,” Farrier said. Receiving the award benefits Farrier because it allows her to teach fewer classes for one year, which will give her time to focus on her manuscript. She hopes to have her book published a year from now. Through her research and manuscript, Farrier wants to challenge people to view African-American language in a different light, which some critics are opposed to. “Not many people want to look at it that way; they are used to the old way of doing things,” Farrier said. “They are okay with talking about

BONNIE FARRIER Assistant Professor of English, comparative literature and linguistics at CSUF professor of English, comparative literature and linguistics at CSUF, Farrier is constantly striving to encourage her students to

guage diversity and helping students see that having a non-standard language variety shouldn’t be considered a challenge,”

Farrier said. “It can also be considered a benefit. A lot of the literature we read in other classes written in different time periods--that’s a different language variety … It’s rich cultural history, so why shouldn’t their language be considered that as well?” Farrier’s teachings are beneficial in changing the way non-traditional verbal ways of communicating are perceived. Erin Woodson, a senior at CSUF, learned to “value Ebonics instead of shun it.” “(Farrier) did a presentation on it and it changed

my opinion from it being a language forming out of ignorance, to embracing the differences in English and neglecting the idea of a ‘standard English,’” she said. Because Farrier is a young teacher, she finds it easy to relate to her students. “I tell them, ‘I’m interested in the things you’re interested in; I like what you like.’ Just because I’m a professor doesn’t mean I’m not a 31-year-old woman,” Farrier said. “I’m learning how to balance being young, being a female and teaching students who are from very different backgrounds.”

Vasquez, who has been a member for five years, credits Ballet Folklórico for reconnecting him to his Mexican roots. “I am a fifth-generation Chicano and so that disconnect has always been in my life. This helps me reconnect back to my ancestral heritage and allows me to better integrate myself into my culture that I kind of lost throughout the generations,” Vasquez said. The connection to Mexican culture is a draw for club members. Fourth-year member Argelia Leon said she joined the BF de CSUF club to pay homage to her mother, who grew up in Jalisco, Mexico, and to better understand her cultural background. Leon was also

inspired to join after seeing how well the club connected as a whole. “We’re not just a club on campus. We’re not just performers. We’re a family,” Leon said.

OPINION Political correctness has gone too far

PAGE 6 OCTOBER 27, 2015 TUESDAY

Hypersensitivity to words slows down social discourse GABE ESPIRITU Daily Titan

The PC police just weighed in — the term “politically correct” is no longer politically correct. Society has finally reached a point of such immense sensitivity that it has become insulted by its

own rules. The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s (UWM) “Inclusive Excellence Center,” a program name which already screams ridiculous, has put together a “Just Words” campaign, listing out microaggressions, which are subtle comments or actions that directly offend a certain minority. These actions are often deemed as unintentional and unconscious reinforcements of stereotypes. The campaign is focused

around asking two questions to the public: “Are they just words?” and “Are they said with respect?” Saying that someone is “politically correct” has become “a way to deflect, say that people are being too ‘sensitive’ and police language,” according to “Just Words.” While it may sound crazy (which the UWM also deems as demeaning to people with mental health diagnoses), coming up with a set of rules of what people

should and shouldn’t say sounds very much like policing. Among UMW’s lengthy list of potentially hurtful microaggressions are “lame,” which they say “ridicules and (ignores) the lives of amputees,” and “illegal alien,” a statement that dehumanizes immigrants. Perhaps one of the greatest signs of “Just Words”’ ignorance comes with its association of the word “thug” as a synonym for the “N-word.” The

Merriam-Webster dictionary simply describes thug as “a brutal ruffian or assassin.” There is absolutely no connotation of such an offensive racial slur. Ironically, it was Warren Scherer, director of the Inclusive Excellence Center who, in a tweet, told Gov. Mike Huckabee, “f*** every fiber of your being.” The hypocrisy and ignorance displayed by the campaign’s own leader shows that the entire movement is nothing more than a show.

Words are extremely powerful and can cut deep, but they are also capable of inciting change. As society progresses, people complain more and more that words are losing their meanings. However, it’s society’s ignorance that causes that change. People live daily with blinders on their eyes. Once opened, perhaps then it’ll be obvious that living a politically correct lifestyle will do nothing more than fill the world with mistakes.

CSUF in desperate need of parking lot etiquette ZACK JOHNSTON Daily Titan

Common courtesy is lacking in parking lots Ask any student who regularly commutes to Cal State Fullerton and they’ll all agree: parking here sucks. Even with literally thousands of parking spots available on campus, after about 9 a.m. you’re lucky if you find a spot remotely near your destination. The ongoing battle for parking is one that is practically unavoidable; however, there are certain etiquettes and common courtesies that one should give to his or her fellow drivers to make the

process a little bit easier. These seem to be greatly lacking in CSUF’s parking lots and structures. The first etiquette is one that should come naturally to all Western drivers: stay on the right side. Too often drivers go past a row of potential parking spots driving straight through the center. This is not only annoying, but also dangerous. Driving through the center of a lane can potentially cause an accident with oncoming cars, especially when turning a corner where drivers cannot see each other. The lanes in parking lots are admittedly narrow, but when the lane permits that two cars can pass through at the same time, then stay to the side. An important thing for CSUF commuters to keep in mind is where they are and how much of a demand there is for parking. That being said, it is important that once they are done using their parking spot, they leave.

Unfortunately, what happens too often is drivers will return back to their vehicles with another driver waiting to take their spot, and they leisurely enter their vehicle and perhaps even take a few minutes to check their phone. This act is incredibly rude to the driver waiting to park because he or she has most likely been frantically searching for parking for a long time. It could be that the returning driver is just killing time between classes, but if that is the case then the considerate thing to do is inform the other driver that you’re not leaving. By far the worst offenders of parking lot etiquette are the drivers that think it’s acceptable to park their car in the middle of a lane and sit and wait for someone to come along and move their car. A seemingly harmless act, but it is flat out obnoxious, inconsiderate and dangerous. Drivers who commit this act force

other drivers approaching from behind to either sit and wait for them to move out of the way, or maneuver their car around the sitting car. This can be quite irritating considering how annoying driving through parking lots already is. This also puts other drivers at risk of getting into an accident when they have to go around other cars. There could potentially be an oncoming car on the other side of the parked vehicle, which could lead to a collision. This option may help save gas, but sitting in one particular spot and waiting for someone to leave only decreases your chances of finding parking in a timely manner. It’s a lose-lose situation. Finding parking is frustrating and time is usually of the essence, but take a second to remember that we all need a spot just as bad as you do, and do your part to make the process go as smoothly and painlessly as possible, for everyone.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

You might accomplish a lot around the house today, but it’s not the relaxing day you had in mind. Part of the problem is you have this nagging thought that you’re forgetting something important. If you can find joy in each achievement, you’ll be happy.

Titans set for Big West finish Men’s soccer preps for away games in last regular season matches AARON VALDEZ Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton men’s soccer team will complete its last two conference games as it heads to UC Irvine for a rematch this Wednesday and rounds out the Big West regular season Saturday at UC Riverside. The Titans lost ground in the Big West Conference title race as they conceded their last two games against Cal State Northridge and UC Riverside, both by a margin of 2-1. With UC Santa Barbara (5-2-1) and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo (4-1-3) emerging as the top two teams in the conference so far, the Titans have to win their remaining matches to improve their 4-3-1 record and give them a chance at defending their Big West title. Luckily for Fullerton, its first meeting with UC Irvine heavily favored the Titans, as they comfortably defeated the

Anteaters 3-0 at Titan Stadium. However, Head Coach George Kuntz still sees UC Irvine as a dangerous team, especially at Anteater Stadium where they are 3-1-2. “They’re probably one of the most misleading teams in the entire conference,” Kuntz said. “They have had some injuries and some cards which set them back, but they’re a talented team and really well coached.” Going into the game, UC Irvine has a subpar record of 3-4-1 but is also coming off two big road wins against UC Riverside and Cal State Northridge with scores of 5-1 and 2-0, respectively. The Anteaters have a deep roster of talented players that will keep the Titans’ backline busy for the full 90 minutes. Senior forward Eduardo Calzado leads the team with six goals alongside three assists, while fellow senior forward Jaime Phillips leads the way in assists with seven to go along with five goals. As of now, the Anteaters are averaging 1.4 goals per game, which coincidentally equals Fullerton’s 1.4 goal average, but at a lower shooting percentage of .095 compared

CSUF has had a difficult time keeping early leads in its past games, surrendering consecutive 2-1 defeats after striking first in the score sheet, The Titans will look to remedy their faults in their last two games of the regular season.

to the Titans’ .117. Titan midfielder Ronaldo Pineda will be suspended for at least one game as he received a red card in the last game against UC Riverside. Pineda has netted two goals on the season and has been

instrumental for the Titans’ offense all year long. Sophomore midfielder Diego Sanchez will look to continue his goal-scoring surge this Wednesday as he leads the team with six goals. Sanchez also has three assists,

tied for second most on the team. If the Titans can organize themselves better defensively much like they did in the early stages of Big West Conference play, they should return to their winning ways

against the Anteaters despite UC Irvine’s big home field advantage. The Titans’ final road trip of the conference season will kick off with a game against UC Irvine Wednesday at Anteater Stadium.

Cross-country preps for Championship race Titans get set for a big finish in last Big West tournament HAYLEY M. SLYE Daily Titan The Cal State Fullerton cross country teams will compete in the Big West Conference Championship on Saturday when they

visit the UC Riverside Ag/ Ops Course. Both the men’s and women’s teams placed fifth in last year’s conference championship. CSUF will enter nine runners in the meet on Saturday. On the women’s side, senior standout Emily Taylor will lead the team on its 6K venture. Taylor placed the highest among the CSUF female

competitors in five out of seven meets last year and placed either first or second among CSUF competitors in four out of seven meets this season. Juniors Sierra Ungerman and Stephanie Ruiz should be able to keep up with the stiff competition, as they consistently placed high throughout the year. On the men’s side, junior Jose Penaloza, senior Tim Reed and senior Jeff Little

have led the pack. Penaloza has been particularly impressive, placing first among CSUF competitors in all of the season’s meets and averaging an 8K time of 25.19. Little and Reed have been right on his heels in CSUF results. Overall, both the men’s and women’s teams have pulled out solid performances through the 2015 season. The women have consistently

placed an average of fifth in meet-by-meet results. The men’s team has not placed lower than sixth. CSUF did not score at home in the Titan Invitational last weekend. Fullerton did not enter enough student-athletes into the competition to do so, as they finished their last preparations for the conference championships this weekend. No runners on the CSUF men’s team competed.

It will be sunny in Riverside, with temperatures reaching a high of 88 degrees. It won’t reach the 80s until around noon; however, the weather shouldn’t be a huge determinant in the earlier contests. The women’s 6K race will begin at 8:30 a.m. and the men’s 8K race at 9:15 a.m. on Saturday at the University of California, Riverside Ag/Ops Course.
