Being a CSU president has its benefits

A car allowance is among the perks given to university executives. KRISTINE JARANILLA Staff Writer

The salaries of most California State University presidents may not be as competitive as similar public universities across the nation, but the job comes with a few perks that compensate for the high cost of living in California. Housing The 2018 CSU Executive Compensation Summary details housing benefits for presidents. Twelve university presidents are compensated with an annual housing allowance ranging from $50,000 to $60,000, according the CSU Chancellor’s Office. Ten presidents have housing provided for them, including CSUF President Fram Virjee. His residence, El Dorado Ranch, is about three miles from the main campus. San Diego State’s interim President Sally Roush was the only president to waive the housing perk.

The low pay of CSU presidents compared to those across the nation by the CSU Chancellor’s Office is reflective of the system’s funding struggles.

CSUF President Fram Virjee’s salary among the lowest in the nation “ SARAH EL-MAHMOUD Managing Editor

JACOB TATHAM Staff Writer

Cal State Fullerton President Fram Virjee said he didn’t start working for the CSU because of the paycheck. After a 30-year career as a lawyer, he was planning to retire and move to Rwanda with his wife, Julie, for their nonprofit, then he received a call from Chancellor Timothy P. White who convinced him to take the job. When Virjee started at the CSU as vice chancellor and general counsel in January 2014, he earned $310,000. In November 2017, he accepted the position of CSUF president just one month after former CSUF President Mildred García left CSUF mid-academic year. As president, Virjee earns a salary of $356,431, which is on the low end of the pay scale when compared to eight universities across the United States with similar high

enrollment, according to the CSU Chancellor’s Office. Among the eight peer universities, Florida International University is at the top, with its president earning $600,653 in 2016, according to the Chronicle of Higher Education. “There is no question that the Cal State University presidents get paid less than other public and private universities across the nation. But everybody in the CSU gets paid less than everybody in most universities,” Virjee said. Out of the 23 CSU presidents, Virjee is the fifth highest paid, according to the chancellor’s office. During a January 2018 CSU Board of Trustees meeting, trustee Silas Abrego pointed out an unequal pay problem among the presidents, due to current policies. When new presidents take office at the CSU, their salaries may either match the pay of the previous president or may only exceed it by up to 10 percent. “I think we discourage applicants from applying,” Abrego said in a April 12 interview. “For potential candidates, making the same or perhaps more money, why would you apply if you couldn’t increase your current salary?”

There is no question that the Cal State University presidents get paid less than other public and private universities across the nation. But everybody in the CSU gets paid less than everybody in most universities.

“

The lack of funding for the CSU system is exemplified by the incomparable payment of its leadership.

FRAM VIRJEE Cal State Fullerton president Abrego recommended that the chancellor hire presidents based on a pay scale that correlates to the presidents’ skills and experience, and reflects each university’s specific characteristics. Virjee, who is receiving an identical salary to García, agrees the current salary structure could create problems for the CSU in attracting quality presidents down the line, particularly with the continually growing market. “You don’t want people to just dismiss us out of hand. It’s almost like if you’re not willing to pay that much, then it must not be very important,” Virjee said. SEE PAYGRADE

Transportation Another presidential benefit is a car allowance. According to the CSU, 21 presidents receive an annual $12,000 car allowance. Horace Mitchell of CSU Bakersfield and Karen S. Haynes of Cal State San Marcos receive a car allowance of $9,000 a year. Spouse/Partner Travel Benefits Twenty-one CSU presidents with spouses or partners are allowed to take them along for university business using state funds, according to the CSU. SEE PERKS 2

Baseball drops game to UCLA on the road The Titans were unable to come back after giving up four runs in the fifth inning. MATTHEW MENDOZA Staff Writer

Cal State Fullerton baseball gave up multiple runs in four innings on the way to a 12-4 loss on the road against No. 9 UCLA. The loss put the Titans under .500 with a record of 19-20. Fullerton used six pitchers in the loss. They combined to surrender 18 hits and struggled to put away the Bruins, allowing five two-out hits in the game. Second baseman Hank LaForte’s sacrifice fly put CSUF on the board in the fifth inning, which was followed by center fielder Mitchell Berryhill’s RBI single to cut the Bruins lead to one. The Bruins added four more runs in the bottom of the fifth, elongating their lead to 7-2 and putting the game out of Fullerton’s reach. After a disastrous fifth inning, the Titans added two more runs in the contest. Shortstop Sahid Valenzuela’s groundout in the sixth inning brought left fielder Chris Prescott home. Prescott again crossed home plate following first baseman Jake Pavletich’s single to left field in the eighth inning. SEE DEFEAT

Shortstop Sahid Valenzuela (4) recorded no hits and one RBI against UCLA on Tuesday.

The low pay of presidents in comparison to the rest of the U.S. is reflective of the CSU system’s struggle with funding resources trickling down to both faculty and staff. Abrego said funding from both the state and student tuition isn’t enough to keep CSUs competitive. Dan Bauman, a data reporter for the Chronicle of Higher Education, said this disparity within the CSU might be due to the way the California State Legislature handles the funding of its university presidents. “Some states choose not to legislate who as opposed to California, who has put restrictions on presidents getting money from university foundations,” Bauman said. The CSU used to supplement a portion of presidential salaries with foundation funds, which are donations used to boost salaries. Because presidents also sit on foundation boards, the CSU board of trustees acknowledged

The way for us to stay competitive is to find people who the most important thing for them is the mission of what we do, and it is important enough that the marginal additional compensation won’t make the difference.

FRAM VIRJEE Cal State Fullerton president that it was a conflict of interest and voted to eliminate foundation funds from all presidential salaries as of January 2018. By comparison, Bauman said Texas has an abundance of money from oil and outside donations, allowing it to fund universities without heavily imposing on taxpayers. “We’re stuck in the middle. We get about half of our funding from tuition and about half of our funding from the state. And if the state doesn’t fund us, it is a crisis. We’re looking at freezing programs, not hiring tenured faculty. And still we won’t be able to pay our bills and CSUF is not any different than the other

CSUs,” Virjee said. He is expected to continue at CSUF until June 2019 and the national search for the next permanent president begins fall 2018. Virjee said he wanted to become CSUF president because he wanted to make a direct impact on students at the university, which is what the CSU looks for when recruiting its leadership. “The way for us to stay competitive is to find people who the most important thing for them is the mission of what we do, and it is important enough that the marginal additional compensation won’t make the difference,” Virjee said.

Perks: Advantages extend to spouses CONTINUED FROM

The spouses/partners are also covered for workers’ compensation. To make this work, spouses and partners are designated as university “volunteers.” Tenure According to the CSU, 16 of the 23 presidents have academic tenure in their contracts, which would allow them to return to

the classroom after serving as president. Elizabeth Chapin, public affairs director at the CSU, said it’s common for presidents, after they’re done fulfilling their duties, to return to teaching under academic tenure. “It’s a way to retain that knowledge and that expertise as a resource for the university,” Chapin said.

She said every April, the trio aims to have nationally-renowned poets come to campus and share their work with students.

As someone who comes from a different culture and as a migrant, I feel that poetry carries our cultural memories and personal stories.

“

On Monday, an open mic stood in Pollak Library, available for Cal State Fullerton poets, guests and the community to step up and share words that transcended paper and fear. “As someone who comes from a different culture and as an immigrant, I feel that poetry carries our cultural memories and personal stories,” said Jie Tian, event organizer and research librarian at the Pollak Library. Tian said she grew up in China and learned to read and write through poetry, which was embedded within her culture. Natalie Graham, featured poet and African-American studies associate professor, began the open mic with a reading from another poet’s work and finished the segment with her own. “Usually, it’s a female poet. It’s always important for me to bring another woman into the room with me when I’m reading,” Graham said. The event is a part of National Poetry Month, which was inaugurated by the Academy of American Poets in 1996. Tian said she has been a part of organizing the campus’ own poetry month since its inception over a decade ago. She said she began at CSUF as the library’s reference and research coordinator for book displays, which were routinely outfitted for honorary months like Women’s and African-American History Month. During her time as coordinator, Tian said she wanted to see the campus honor National Poetry Month as well. Tian said she has collaborated for 14 years with Irena Pratis, literature of the Americas professor, for 14 years, organizing events and inviting published poets to read on campus. On Monday and Tuesday, “Lifting Together: Poetry and the Rising Imagination,” was a series of poetry events in the library, and included readings by poets Victoria Chang and April Ossmann. It concluded with the community open mic where guests were able to walk up to

of each other that maybe other types of medium or art hasn’t allowed us to do,” Graham said. Tian said she encourages poets that are nervous about open mics to fight their fears by facing them and walking up to the mic. “In order to break that fear, step up to the mic. Even when you hear your voice tremble, it’s not that bad,” she said. “There are so many voices. Every voice is beautiful. One doesn’t have to be perfect to go up.”

The Duo’s taste buds take on the heat of Howlin’ Ray’s Nashvillestyle hot fried chicken.

HANNAH MILLER Lifestyle Editor

TRACY HOANG Layout Editor

Tucked away in a plaza in Chinatown, Howlin’ Ray’s serves up Nashville-style hot fried chicken to an L.A. audience. It’s so coveted that lines stretch for hours on a daily basis. We’ve had problems with lines in the past, but this time we were ready and anxious to see if Howlin’ Ray’s would live up to its social media hype. Bringing along the Daily Titan sports editor Jared Eprem (well, he was our placeholder as we showed up late), we prepared ourselves for either disappointment or elation. As we weaved through L.A. traffic, our lives were continuously flashing before our eyes; we were certain death was chasing us. Finally finding parking after circling the plaza (what felt like 20 times), we trekked in. We got there just after 11 a.m., its opening time, and the line already stretched far enough to the point where we couldn’t see the restaurant. Mostly covered in shade, some spots in the line allowed us to momentarily sunbathe. The line itself acted like a paradox. What seemed like a handful of minutes also gave us time to contemplate mortality, some of us battling the fear that time had stopped completely. As we got closer to the front, people began passing us, their prizes in hand. Some carried multiple large bags of aromatic fried chicken, smiling ear to ear and inspiring us to continue.

WEDNESDAY APRIL 25, 2018

We hit the 1-hour mark when we first saw customers actually eating. Some indulged causally, savoring each bite of their sandwich or chicken piece. Others, however, chose the more risky option. Slipping on gloves, these thrill-seekers tenderly handled the blazing red, famous Howlin’ chicken. Made with a mix of fiery hot peppers like the Carolina Reaper and scorpion peppers (two of the world’s hottest peppers) the color alone seemed to warn of danger. We heeded its warning as we discussed what we would eat. The second hour seemed to pass by more quickly as we watched patrons eat. We reached the front of the line just after 1 p.m. Our mouths watered as we tried to order. The venue was tiny compared to the line, and they had everyone order at the door. The host gladly explained everything about Howlin’ Ray’s to us because we told him it was our first time. We ordered the mild chicken sando (basically a sandwich), which is explained as a “brush of heat,” the medium chicken sandos and a half bird (a breast, wing, leg and thigh) labeled “feel the burn,” and one country style chicken sando with no heat (for the tall dumpling who can’t brave any spice) with fries all around. Jared tried sacrificing himself by ordering the Howlin’ chicken sando for the sake of quality reporting, but the host advised against it, warning the chicken would be too hot to enjoy in sandwich form. Jared continued to press, but the host was firm. Instead, he suggested for Jared to order a Howlin’ chicken wing on the side. After we ordered, space opened up inside and we were one of the lucky ones who were able to file in. We sat along the bar, absorbing the abnormally-high energy levels of the staff. They entertained as they worked, simultaneously holding conversation with us, roaring orders and belting along with songs. While waiting for our food and watching in awe as the staff bust out tons of orders of hot chicken, the cooks in front of us called our attention as they set up an order of waffles. On Saturdays and Sundays only, Howlin’ Ray’s serves fresh waffles that you can order with your chicken. After giving them the final

touches, which included a drizzle of heavenly maple syrup, they pushed the waffles toward us. Our cook Julian said they were “on the house.” Their hospitality amazed us (can you beat free food?). The waffle was fresh off the griddle and topped with tons of butter, powdered sugar and maple syrup. Sweet, fluffy and divine are only a few adjectives we’d throw at them. Waffle House who? At this point, we were buzzing with excitement for our hot chicken. Our numbers were called and one by one we were all gracefully handed our chicken sandos, as if it were a sacred ceremony. Jared was also given his special Howlin’ wing with a side of blue latex gloves as a safety precaution. We all began to grub, uttering sounds of disbelief. The piece of chicken was larger than life, barely covered by the bun and coleslaw. Topped with copious amounts of pickles, coleslaw and its special “comeback sauce.” However, as a fair warning, there’s a good amount of pickles in the sando, so if you’re not really a pickle person (like our little dumpling), feel free to pick them out. For those

who love pickles, they offer extra on the side. After finishing his meal, Jared slipped on the blue latex gloves and braved the Howlin’ wing. Drenched in dark red powder, the wing looked intimidating. He took the first bite. “It started fine,” Jared said. “Then my body started getting warm. I started sweating. My mouth started burning. There were sharp pains in my chest. I lost all sense of taste.” His lips turned pink from the contact with the chili powder. One bite was all it took. He couldn’t bear to take another, and decided to save it for the next day to share with our fellow newsroom colleagues (though no one dared to touch it). Stomachs stuffed with fried chicken sandos, fries and waffles, we were sad to leave. The cooks and hosts of Howlin’ Ray’s opened their arms to us and made us feel welcomed. Was it worth the hype and the wait? We definitely think so. But maybe not Jared. “It gave me nightmares,” Jared said.

WEDNESDAY APRIL 25, 2018

The stigmas around STDs are harmful Annual testing lowers health risks for everyone involved.

TREVA FLORES Staff Writer

Getting tested for sexually transmitted diseases/infections is easier than ever, but most people under the age of 25 are not taking advantage of its benefits. In 2016, less than 12 percent of adolescents and young adults were tested for a sexually transmitted infection, but those who were sexually active contributed to over half of all reported STI cases, according to a study in the Journal of Adolescent Health. But getting tested doesn’t have to be embarrassing or costly for college students. It’s the right thing to do, not just for a person’s own health, but for their potential sexual partners’ health as well. Although there isn’t a single reason why people aren’t getting tested, it may be due to the social stigma surrounding STDs, like the assumption that people with STDs are promiscuous or will be infected for the rest of their lives. It only takes one sexual encounter to obtain an STD and can even happen to people who are in long-term monogamous relationships. The only definitive way for sexually-active people to know if they have an STD is to be tested annually. In 2017, the Cal State Fullerton student health center reported 81 percent of students who were tested for STDs were also positive for either syphilis, gonorrhea or chlamydia. However, only slightly more than 17 percent of the school’s students were tested. Common STDs like chlamydia and gonorrhea often show no symptoms, making it harder for people to know if they have them unless they’re tested annually. The student wellness center on campus offers free condoms as well as free testing for sexually transmitted infections through Family PACT, a California health benefits program focused on family planning.

ANDREW LOPEZ / DAILY TITAN

Places like Student Wellness and Planned Parenthood offer free STD testing, which is important for the health of sexually active students.

On the chance that walking into the Student Wellness center is still nerve-wracking, Planned Parenthood also offers STD testing for free through Family PACT. So for those who live off-campus, it’s relatively easy to book an appointment at a local health center. Getting an STD test shouldn’t be shameful. Instead, getting regular STD tests should be normalized as part of health culture, similar to an annual health checkup at the doctor. Of course, getting tested isn’t the only way to prevent spreading STDs. It’s also important to practice safe sex with new partners, whether in a fling or a

committed relationship. Anytime a person has contact with their partners’ body fluids there’s a risk for transferring an STD, so barrier methods like male or female condoms, as well as dental dams, are the best preventative measures, according to Planned Parenthood. Correct condom usage has also been proven to be effective in limiting the risk of obtaining STDs, although they don’t provide complete protection, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Another preventative action is simply talking to your partner. Although conversations can feel awkward, it’s better to ask if

your partner has been tested than to assume your partner is STD free. Students are particularly at risk because they are often at the stage of life where they are exploring their sexuality. Although it is an influential stage, practicing safe sex and getting tested can save lives and prevent permanent damage. STDs that are left untreated may lead to an increased risk of obtaining HIV, long-term abdominal pain and infertility, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The plus side of people knowing whether or not they’ve contracted an STD is that most are

easily cured with medicine. STDs that aren’t curable often have medications that can reduce symptoms as well as the risk of transferring the disease to another partner. STDs don’t have to be scary or taboo to talk about. They are a normal part of life and have the potential to affect anyone who is sexually active, which makes it even more important to keep having conversations and destroy the stigma that people with STDs are “dirty.” Through annual testing, education and safe sex practices, college campuses can prevent the spread of STDs rather than contribute to their ongoing rise.

Defeat: Bruins sweep season series against the Titans 2-0 CONTINUED FROM

Fullerton’s bats went cold despite advancing the leadoff batter to first in four innings. The Titans only logged three hits with runners on base in the contest. Bruins second baseman Chase Strumpf had a strong game, going 3-5 with three doubles, an RBI and two runs scored. Titans pitcher Tanner Bibee struggled early on, giving up three runs on seven hits in three innings.

Timothy Josten came in to relieve Bibee in the third. Josten went on to give up two hits and two earned runs in his 2.1 innings pitched. Bruins pitcher Jack Ralston struggled with his command too, throwing only 41 strikes in his 81 pitches. However, he managed to shutout the Titans offense for four innings. This is the second time this season UCLA has scored 12 runs against Fullerton. CSUF will hit the road again this weekend for a Big West conference series against UC Irvine.
