University planning physical revamp Three candidates campaign to be CAPS director Position hopefuls held separate on-campus forums to gauge CSUF community. LAUREN DIAZ

Asst. Opinion Editor

The Cal State Fullerton Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) department held separate open forums over the past two weeks for three candidates applying to become the new CAPS director. The candidates are Brad Meier, counseling director and staff psychologist at University of Southern California, Carolyn O’Keefe, senior staff psychologist at University of California, Irvine, and Jaime Sheehan, the current interim director of CAPS. Sheehan said CSUF is ranked fifth in the nation for its diversity, but all the candidates expressed a shared passion and concern for the well-being of diversity among students, and maintaining leadership and partnership between CAPS staff. The candidates also emphasized the need to build stronger university relationships with better counseling programs, more online resources for students and outreach techniques that would reach the different needs of students. Meier mainly focused his talk on hypothetical outreach programs that serve specific student areas, as well as being welcoming to everybody. SEE SEARCH

The CSUF community shared its campus planning input in the form of sticky notes at the Clayes Performing Arts Center.

Final draft of the Cal State Fullerton physical master plan expected to be completed in two years. CAITLIN BARTUSICK Asst. Copy Editor

The planning process for the Cal State Fullerton campus physical master plan is currently underway with the final draft expected to be completed by 2020. Some key issues the plan may address include parking, outdated buildings and campus amenities. The physical master plan will provide the university with a guideline of needed improvements to campus framework. Mandated

by the California State University system, the plan allows the university to accommodate a growing student body and meet the academic needs of students, faculty and staff. Architects, engineers, consultants and planners held a public forum at the Clayes Performing Arts Center on Thursday to ask the campus community about their visions for the master plan. Planners encouraged visitors to take an online survey, write personalized Post-it notes or place stickers on informational poster signs to express specific concerns and proposals. “We are at the early stages of this project. We are listening, asking good questions about what works on campus and what doesn’t work on campus,” said John Gibbs, principal

at Wallace Roberts & Todd, a planning and design firm in San Francisco. “We’re trying to make sense of all that, and that’s where we need feedback from the campus community.” The last time a master plan was completed for the university was in 2003. Since then, the full-time equivalent student enrollment number has increased by about 8,000. Campus environment Most guests at the forum indicated with stickers that 24/7 access to healthy and affordable food options and other campus amenities would keep them on campus longer. SEE UPGRADES

Pitcher Andrew Quezada threw a complete game shutout for the second time in three starts as Cal State Fullerton baseball completed its sweep of UC Davis with a 5-0 win on the road Sunday.

“The attitude today was to take game three and complete the sweep. I think that’s back-toback sweeps for us so we’re happy. This eight-hour drive home is going to be a good one,” Quezada told CSUF Sports Media. Quezada struck out three batters while allowing four hits against the Aggies (15-27 overall, 7-11 in conference). The Titans improved to 12-3 in the Big West conference, maintaining their first-place seed. “I trusted the defense. I think

I only had two or three strikeouts and they put a lot of balls in play. Early on in the series, we knew that they were aggressive so I tried pounding the zone for them to get themselves out,” Quezada told CSUF Sports Media. Titans Head Coach Rick Vanderhook said Quezada was “excellent on the mound today” and credited his team for closing out the series strong. SEE SWEEP

Dancers leaped to new heights and reached hearts during Cal State Fullerton’s Spring Dance Theatre at the Little Theatre on Saturday. The night had eight choreographed routines that represented emotions like fear, sadness, romance, anger, passion and joy. The opening routine was titled “Tumultus.” As the room went pitch black and filled with eerie music, nothing could be seen until dancers strapped with white lights to their heads emerged from the darkness. The dancers swarmed around bodies that looked lifeless until suddenly their flashlights were turned on too, revealing a red light. What started off as the unknown turned into fear as the red-lighted dancers chased the white-lighted dancers around the stage. As the music intensified the red dancers took over the stage until every white light vanished into darkness. It was a terrifying way to open up a show, but was a good hook for a series of incredible dances. “Like Bread…” was a routine dedicated to choreographer Taylor-Anne Murray’s grandparents. Inside the playbill reads, “Love is like bread – it has to be remade all the time, over and over.” There were only two dancers, Brandy Factory and Chandler Davids, who did a wonderful job at portraying love. The set took the stage as a house decorated with a couch by a window. The dancers’ costumes looked like vintage attire from the ‘40s or ‘50s. The two dancers moved beautifully together through a series of lifts and twirls, and the opening felt like the honeymoon phase of a relationship. Toward the end, their movements felt more sad as they rolled around on the floor. The routine ended with Factory sitting on the couch reaching out to the audience as Davids rolled to the floor.

Upgrades: Plans underway to rework CSUF campus CONTINUED FROM

Several Post-it notes iterated the idea of expanding and integrating aspects of the arboretum into student life. Others expressed interest in replicating the recent renovation of the Titan Student Union into other campus spaces. “We really want to understand what kind of spaces — like the character and personality of a physical space on campus — that a student would want,” said Kim Swanson, Flad Architects project manager. “We have found that retention on campus is creating opportunities for people to learn and collaborate a lot more than if they go home at the end of their last class.” Facilities Founded in 1957, CSUF still has a handful of existing buildings that are about 50 to 60 years old, in poor conditions and severely overused, according to the forum’s informational displays. The Clayes Performing Arts Center, McCarthy Hall and the Pollak Library are all buildings that were constructed between 1960 and 1969. Lesley Aguirre, a CSUF student majoring in theatre arts, said she believes the quality of campus infrastructure has a direct impact on students’ academic experiences. “I feel like some of our buildings are older and they need to be updated,” Aguirre said. “They have classrooms that are very old and it doesn’t function very well with the students, and it hinders their learning abilities.” Brad Leathley, principal architect with Flad Architects, said when the campus was originally designed buildings were built with different ambitions, and as a result different learning experiences were developed. The master plan will help prioritize the need to replace or renovate existing structures, he said. “There are several places around campus that are probably really ripe for making more dense, and maybe even some buildings that are really outdated

coming down, making way for new buildings to go in,” Leathley said. “When we get that far, we’ll have a better idea of how difficult that is.”

Transportation A clothesline with note cards attached hung low for visitors to pin recommendations about improving campus transportation. Some read, “Need more parking structures” and “Trolley system from train to campus.” “Parking is always an issue. I get here at 6:30 in the morning every day before all of the other crazy parking because I don’t like dealing with that,” Aguirre said. According to the display, garage parking takes up more space than buildings and costs about $40,000 per space to build. One parking garage could accommodate 500 student housing units. “We definitely want to make parking convenient and we also need to be cognizant of the trade-offs on that,” said Lauren Mattern, principal at Nelson/ Nygaard transportation consultants. “Cars sit parked 90 percent or more of the time right now. Cars are a huge part of how we get around and they’re also pretty inefficient.” Mattern said as more driving technology develops, like self-driving vehicles and mobile delivery services, there could be an impact on overall parking demand. Ultimately, sustainable alternatives for transportation and other initiatives are being explored and considered in the process of compiling the master plan, according to the displays. The challenges ahead Once the master plan is finalized, the final draft plan will go through a lengthy process of review required by the state of California. An environmental committee will evaluate the plan’s environmental impact and finally it will go to the CSU board of trustees to get approved for funding. The CSUF community is encouraged to submit feedback

“We’re trying to give people a foundation that will help them be successful. We want our students to thrive and recognize the resources they have within and they have people here to be helpful,” Meier said. O’Keefe, a licensed clinical psychologist, centered her presentation around her relatability toward struggling students and her understanding of their need for help, even when they don’t openly ask for it. “I faced a lot of challenges that students here face. I struggled with figuring out the system, with imposter syndrome, ‘Do I belong here? Is this really the right path for me?’ I was on academic probation, I struggled with graduating,” O’Keefe said. CSUF does not have enough resources, O’Keefe said. The university has 17 counselors responsible for overseeing the

40,000 students on campus, and the recommended ratio of professional staff member to student is 1 to 1,000 to 1,500, according to the International Association of Counseling Services, Inc. “The greatest power in the world is the energy that happens between people, and we’re losing that. We’re becoming automated and relying on technology. We can’t lose compassion or empathy,” O’Keefe said. Sheehan focused her presentation on different counseling programs outside of traditional 45-minute counseling sessions. Anxiety was listed as the number one reason for college counseling center visitation nationwide, most likely due to the social media dominant culture and pressure to “be it all” and “get it right,” Sheehan said. As interim director, she said she’s been focused on increasing awareness on campus and changing the ways the counseling center can reach students before students seek counselors in a crisis. Student have been asking for workshops on sleep, hygiene and stress management techniques. The department is also looking into creating additional safe groups for students, like yoga healing and a dog therapy program, Sheehan said. She also suggested adding resources like crisis hotline numbers on class syllabi. After each forum, attendees were able to offer their feedback and thoughts on the candidate online.

Cal State Fullerton students, faculty and staff gathered in the Titan Student Union Pavilions on Thursday for the fourth annual Tuffy Awards, which recognizes student leaders and organizations on campus. Anthony Pang, associate director of Student Life and Leadership, said he and Tonantzin Oseguera, associate vice president of Student Engagement for the Division of Student Affairs, came up with the idea for the Tuffy Awards as a way to recognize “the heart and soul of the Titan experience.” The awards recognized nine different categories with over 175 nominations. Student Organization of the Year went to Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority, beating out 22 other organizations. “One of our signature events is the domestic violence awareness candlelight vigil that we host every October,” said Paola Leiva, sorority member and senior political science and philosophy major. In addition to the vigil, the sorority has collaborated with organizations like Children on the Run, Kids in Need of Defense, CSUF D.R.E.A.M. CoOp and Lambda Theta Phi to raise awareness for unaccompanied immigrant minors.

Between the announcements of the award winners, performances were put on by the Pilipino American Student Association, an acapella group called FullerTones, the Japanese Culture Club and Ballet Folklórico de CSUF.

The Garden brings ‘Vadaverse’ to Santa Ana The band delivers angst with their set at The Observatory. BREANNA BELKEN Asst. News Editor

The Observatory in Santa Ana once again became “Vadaverse” on Friday night when The Garden, an experimental rock duo, returned to close out the American leg of their Mirror Might Steal Your Charm Tour. The Garden is composed of Wyatt and Fletcher Shears, who are twin brothers based in Orange County. They released music through the Fullerton-based record label, Burger Records, before signing with Epitaph Records. The Garden’s band name refers to their music constantly growing, which is fitting for the music genre-bending duo. They refer to their style, music and essence as “Vada Vada,” a term they coined in 2011 meaning complete freedom of expression without boundaries or guidelines. Shattered Faith, Cowgirl Clue and Tijuana Panthers opened the show, and the packed crowd at The Observatory was in for a long night. Shattered Faith, an Orange County punk band, started the show off with high energy and got the crowd moshing through their set, which was angsty and seemed fitting for the crowd that was eager to start moving. Their classic punk-rock style was a refreshing contrast to the rest of the lineup, which was much more new wave. Cowgirl Clue then took the stage, bringing flowers, stuffed animals and an inflatable cherry with them. Using electronic beats and the soft vocals of lead singer Ashley Calhoun, their set was fun and danceable. The keyboards and drums were decorated with flowers, which Calhoun would dance with and throw to the crowd, much to their excitement. Originally from Long Beach, the Tijuana Panthers brought beach rock to the crowd. Their set was a bit more laid back,

The stage was shrouded with so much fog that Fletcher Shears, dummer, wasn’t visible to the crowd.

with vocal responsibilities being shared by all three band members. The crowd responded by jumping, dancing and a few even crowd surfed throughout Tijuana Panthers’ set. After the three openers, The Garden finally took the stage. Draped with a banner featuring the band’s logo and a joker, the stage slowly began to fill with smoke. The audience was filled with anticipation and the barricades began rocking moments before the Shears twins emerged. Once two shadowy figures appeared and their creepy backing track full of laughter and electronic beats began to play, the crowd was eager for the set to get started.

Opening with “U Want The Scoop?” The Garden immediately unleashed the built-up angst of the crowd. It didn’t take long before the audience responded with moshing and crowd surfers, the band seemingly carefree toward the chaos. Vocals were shared equally between the twins, when they weren’t playing bass or the drums, they were jumping around on stage, or even diving off of it. The crowd almost constantly moshing and jumping off of barricades to crowd surf. There was no change in pace from the beginning to the end of the show. They had a constant rhythm and kept their energy high from start to finish. Even when it looked and sounded like

pure chaos was everywhere, the twins reminded the crowd they were in charge. Every move they made was with purpose, and every lyric packed a punch. Their bass-filled backing track, sometimes interrupted by laughter, was eerie but fit their jokester nature. The crowd sang along with the same angst and passion the twins delivered. The band also played “Egg” and “All Smiles Over Here :),” which despite being from earlier in their career, still packed the same energetic punch that their new music has. After closing with “All Smiles Over Here :),” the crowd chanted and asked for one more song. The Garden delivered with

“Stylish Spit” as the brothers sang over an upbeat backing track and jumped around the stage to close the show. The Garden’s style is all their own and they don’t conform to any rules; they either break them all or make their own. They stand out from other duos like Twenty One Pilots, who have fallen victim to the mainstream. The band will leave its mark on many musical genres, and its memorable performances are only one aspect the band has to offer. The Garden’s music, essence and ability to adapt keep them original as they continue to test the boundaries between musical genres and keep Vada Vada alive.

“For Those Who Cannot Speak” felt angry and powerful as the dancers shook their hands toward the floor before the music had started. One dancer stood with her back to the audience for nearly the entire routine, motionless as angry dancers in red dresses fiercely moved around her. When the music finally started, it sounded like ocean waves crashing onto a shoreline. The dancers seemed more calm and fluid in their motions, but sustained passionate and angry emotions. “Eden” came off as unusual, but was definitely thought-provoking and entertaining. A boy started the routine in skintoned clothing surrounded by a blue backdrop and two trees. His movement was stiff and rigid as he walked. At one point he sat down and held his foot up to his ear before throwing it back out.

A girl also in skin-toned clothing came out on stage, which depicted Adam and Eve naked. She mimicked the movements and footwork of the boy. Eventually a group of dancers in green dresses came onto the stage and danced around the duo. The best was certainly saved for last in the final routine titled “Pas de Huit (What a Racquet!).” The dancers were dressed like badminton players in white skirts and shorts. They used racquets and birdies as their props and swung at the air in mock competition. There was humor and joy as the dancers used ballet moves and classical music to mimic the sport. Spring Dance Theatre was an interesting and bold performance that made the entire night a worthwhile experience. The show will continue its run in Little Theatre until May 13 with tickets at $14 and $12 for students.

MONDAY MAY 7, 2018

Pepper-related incidents are hot topics, not news A man being hospitalized after eating a Carolina Reaper isn’t newsworthy material.

COLE GRAVES Staff Writer

The New York Times recently took on the eccentric world of chili peppers and published an article in April about a New York man who ate a Carolina Reaper, the world’s hottest pepper according to Guinness World Records, in a pepper-eating contest. He suffered the usual symptoms of ingesting the pepper — including dry heaves and cold sweats — but it didn’t stop there. He had to be hospitalized after experiencing extreme pain in his head and neck, and doctors came to the conclusion that he was suffering from thunderclap headaches, also known as reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome. But, a man who willingly ate the world’s hottest pepper, while participating in a hot-pepper-eating competition isn’t newsworthy material. It’s something that belongs on BuzzFeed, not in the second most popular newspaper by circulation in the United States, according to Statista, a provider of market and consumer data. Usually, when hearing about people who willingly subject themselves to extreme agony for extended periods of time, people would think those suffering are standing in line at the Department of Motor Vehicles, not biting into a pepper. But it turns out some people like pain. People often compete in spicy food challenges or eat hot peppers to test their toughness based on the number of Scoville units, which is used to measure spiciness, they can tolerate. They are sometimes referred to as chileheads, chili heads or pepper heads and are a particular group of people who enjoy casual suffering with their meal. This hobby extends beyond just eating whole peppers, as spice enthusiasts create extreme hot sauces and invite others to

join them in their pain. These fiery condiments contain peppers and other pain-inducing extracts and spices, making for sauces with ridiculously high Scoville heat unit ratings. Regardless of whether the article interests a small audience of people who might find this story important, it’s not news that belongs in a national newspaper. It’s more of an informational article about really hot peppers and the effects they cause when mixed with stupidity. Articles like this are just clickbait made to cause social media hype. It turns out, the man who suffered the intense headaches

This Summer See You at

was most likely sensitive to capsaicin, the chemical in the pepper’s seeds responsible for producing an inflammatory response and often causing an intense burning or itching after ingestion. Measuring at around 1.5 million Scoville heat units, the Carolina Reaper reigns as the top pepper on the scale, despite recent claims that other peppers have surpassed it. In comparison, the average jalapeno measures from 3,500 to 8,000 units, making it around 400 times hotter than a jalapeno, according to Guinness World Records. The New York Times is one of the most

well-known newspapers in the country and has worldwide readership. Three million people subscribe to the paper and expect to receive quality news on a consistent basis. A Pulitzer-winning newspaper like The New York Times prides itself in delivering ground-breaking investigative series and detailed coverage of national stories. A newspaper of such high quality isn’t expected to fall into the same lazy and desperate patterns as places like BuzzFeed by producing lame clickbait articles, so when a prestigious publication does, it tarnishes its reputation and is disheartening for journalism.

Titans lose 10-game-conference winning streak CSUF softball suffered a shutout from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, falling 3-0 on the road Sunday. JARED EPREM Sports Editor

KATIE ALBERTSON / DAILY TITAN FILE PHOTO

Center fielder Ari Williams was left on base three times Sunday.

Cal State Fullerton softball had its Big West conference 10-game winning streak snapped on Sunday in its final road game of the regular season, falling 3-0 to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. The Titans still earned a series victory for defeating the Mustangs 3-0 and 4-0 on Saturday, making all three games of the series a shutout. CSUF (31-22 overall, 16-2 in conference) still holds a two-game lead over Long Beach State in the Big West, while Cal Poly SLO (24-23 overall, 8-10 in conference) remains tied with UC Davis for fourth place. Despite only striking out one batter, Mustangs pitcher Lindsey Chalmers (19-9) allowed five hits in her seven innings pitched. The last time the Titans recorded fewer than five hits was against Long Beach State on April 14.

Fullerton had not been shut out by an opponent since March 13 against Columbia, where the Titans lost 5-0 at home. Left fielder Sammie Vandiver finished 2-4 on Sunday and was the only Titan to log multiple hits. Third baseman Bryanna Ybarra, first baseman Zoe Richard, and catcher Julia Valenzuela recorded one hit each, while Richard extended her streak of at least one hit to 11 consecutive games. Mustangs right fielder Crimson Kaiser and center fielder Amanda Sandoval recorded two hits each. Sandoval also scored a run. Of the nine Titans left on base in the game, only two were in scoring positions. Ybarra (2), center fielder Ari Williams (3) and right fielder Brooke Clemetson (2) were stranded multiple times. Pitcher Sophie Frost suffered her seventh loss of the season. She allowed seven hits, two runs and striking out three batters in her 16th complete game. Despite the defeat, Fullerton still has a chance to clinch its third-consecutive Big West conference championship in its final series of the season. The Titans will host UC Riverside starting on Friday, May 11.

Multiple athletes take first place in Titan Twilight

Corey Gilbert broke the discus throw record for CSUF track and field. KATHRYNE PADILLA Asst. Sports Editor

Cal State Fullerton track and field junior Corey Gilbert broke his discus throw record at the Titan Twilight on Saturday at CSUF’s Titan Track & Field Complex. Gilbert originally surpassed the 44-year-old team discus record on March 24 at the UC Riverside Spring Classic Invitational after hauling 54.45 meters. But in the Titan Twilight, he set a new best at 56.09 meters. In their final nonconference meet before the primary portion of the Big West championship, the Titans secured five first-place finishes. In the men’s 4x100-meter relay, Titans quartet of Luis Matos, Thaddeus Smith, Rasaun House

and Marcel Espinoza finished in first place with a time of 40.65 seconds. In his solo event, House recorded a new personal best and took first place in the men’s 200-meter sprint, finishing at 21.39 seconds. Matos claimed second place with a time of 21.85 seconds. Junior Morgan Love placed first in the women’s 400-meter dash ending with a time of 58.11 seconds. Finishing shortly behind her for second place was sophomore Mia Franco at 58.63 seconds. In the women’s triple jump, junior Onyx Gaston landed at 11.52 meters for a first place finish. Junior Alysse McMillen won the women’s pole vault event after clearing a personal best of 3.90 meters. The Titans will enter the final two days of the Big West championships on May 11 and 12 at Cal State Northridge before the NCAA DI West Preliminary Round at the end of May.

You might feel as if you’re being unjustly singled out today when someone criticizes your performance or throws a roadblock in front of your plans.

Palindromes have been around since at least the days of ancient Greece, and our name for them comes from two Greek words, palin, meaning “back” or “again,” and dramein, meaning “to run.”

LIBRA (Sep. 23 - Oct. 22) Practicing unconditional love is easy when the other person is living up to your expectations. However, you may reach a point when the only way you can demonstrate how much you care today is by issuing an ultimatum.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21) You’re afraid of sending out more of a message than you intend today. Acting spontaneously is challenging because you must be cautious about everything you do and every thought you share now.

It feels as if you must continue to make the same decision over and over again. But acting prudently won’t automatically set you down in a stable place where your work will be appreciated.

Daily Sudoku: Wed 2-May-2018

You are so certain of a recent decision that no one is going to convince you to change your mind today. You did not reach your current conclusions in haste, nor will you set them aside without serious review.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18) You can list many reasons why you should stay out of the limelight today, but the most important one is you don’t want all the attention. You may possess information that cannot be shared with anyone else, and the best way to keep a secret now is to remain physically isolated from others. © thewordsearch.com

Sweep: Quezada logs second shutout this season CONTINUED FROM

1

“It’s great when you can get series wins on the road, but when you can get sweeps, well, that’s just hard to do. The guys did a great job of keeping their focus in a very tough place to play,” Vanderhook told CSUF Sports Media. CSUF recorded double-digit hits for the fifth consecutive game Sunday. Center fielder Mitchell Berryhill and catcher Daniel Cope led the charge for the Titans. Berryhill went 3-4 from the plate and Cope went 2-4 with a home run and 4 RBIs.

I didn’t really think it was going to be gone off the bat so I was kind of surprised, honestly.

DANIEL COPE Titans catcher

“The ball didn’t really fly out here all weekend but I put a pretty good swing on it. I didn’t really think it was going to be gone off the bat so I was kind of surprised, honestly,” Cope told CSUF Sports Media. Second baseman Hank LoForte went 2-5 and scored two runs. Five other Titans logged a hit in the game. Cope said the all-around dominance from Fullerton’s offense makes him more comfortable in his at-bats. “If I don’t do my job, the person behind me will pick me up. That’s how we’ve been rolling for the past couple of weekends, putting up a lot of runs because of that,” Cope told CSUF Sports Media. Fullerton heads back home to play its final series of the season against the last-place team in the Big West, UC Riverside, starting Friday, May 11 at 7 p.m.
