Breaking News: Plane crash kills five Aircraft goes down into a Yorba Linda home and sets it ablaze. KAITLIN MARTINEZ News Editor

A small plane crashed into a Yorba Linda residence on Sunday Feb. 3, killing the pilot and four of the people inside the home on Canyon Drive. Two others were injured and taken to the hospital for treatment. The plane, a twin-engine Cessna 414A, traveled 15 miles from Fullerton Municipal Airport before it crashed into the home. At around 1:35 p.m.

authorities received the pilot’s emergency signal, according to KABC-TV. The Orange County Sheriff’s Department was first notified of the event when residents dialed 911 at 1:45 p.m. According to footage that Carrie Braun, public information officer for the Orange County Sheriff’s Department, viewed, at some point the plane started falling apart before crashing into the Yorba Linda home. The house then caught on fire. Law enforcement set up a command center at Glenknoll Elementary School. Due to the circumstances, the school will be closed on Monday.

Over 70 firefighters responded to the crash. Debris littered the area, littering the street with potholes. Officials said that they hope all the debris spanning the four-block area is collected on Monday, according to the OC Register. A portion of the main cabin area of the plane landed in another home’s backyard, according to KTLA. Though not confirmed, there were eye witness reports to police dispatch that the plane was on fire before hitting the house. The National Transportation Safety Board will investigate the nature and cause of the crash, Braun said.

Vacant city council position filled In a 3-1 decision, Jan Flory was chosen to serve through Dec. 2020. ADAM MALDONADO Asst. News Editor

MIGUEL HIDALGO Staff Writer

Fullerton City Council appointed Jan Flory to fill the vacant city council seat on Tuesday, Jan. 29. Flory has served on the Fullerton City Council four previous terms and will sit on the council until December 2020. Applicants and audience members had mixed feelings on the unwritten appointment process that involved discussion on whether to pull straws or use scraps of paper, a “write four, choose three” method of reducing the applicants, and a long second-round of questioning. Angela Lindstrom, a resident of Fullerton since 1999, advocated for an election during public comments to keep things open and fair. “I’m not saying that they are bad people or that they did this intentionally, but I do question their biases as human beings,” Lindstrom said. “It’s not only not fair to the voters, it’s not fair to those people who apply for this.” The appointment followed

City council candidates are anticipating sharing with the council why they should be chosen for the position.

after the council announced on Jan. 15 that they would begin accepting applications for the vacant position. This past election was the first to use a district election

system instead of the old atlarge system. Flory will be taking Mayor Jesus Silva’s old atlarge seat, which he vacated after winning the new election in the 3rd District. The at-large

seats, including Flory’s seat, will be up for election in 2020, at which point all the council seats will be under the new system. Twenty-six candidates

initially applied for the position but three candidates dropped out of the race before Tuesday’s meeting. Candidates who applied to run for the city council vacancy included former councilman Greg Sebourn, city attorney Sonia Carvalho, Fullerton Planning Commission Chair Chris Gaarder and plenty of candidates from other walks of life. Each candidate was given three minutes to present their campaign in front of the council on Tuesday evening. From the 23 candidates who appeared, each council member chose three candidates they wanted to be further interviewed. Three of the four voting council members had both Flory and Carvalho on their list, except for city council member Bruce Whitaker. Each council member then formulated one question to be asked to the remaining candidates following their nominations. Silva nominated Jan Flory following the second round of speeches. Jennifer Fitzgerald, Mayor Pro Tem for the city council, seconded the motion. Council member Ahmad Zahra nominated Carvalho through a substitute motion SEE FULLERTON

Cal States to receive more funding Gov. Newsom announces new budget goals and commitment. ANGELINA DEQUINA Asst. Opinion Editor

In light of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s 2019-2020 budget proposal, the chancellor of the California State University, Timothy White, declared that a tuition increase is “off the table” during his State of the California State University address last Tuesday. The “California for All” budget will allocate an ongoing funding increase of $300 million to the California State University system. The funds

will be designated towards operational costs, increased enrollment and the Graduation Initiative of 2025, according to the California government website. A press release from the CSUs on Jan. 10 stated that Gov. Newsom’s budget is the largest investment by any governor in the history of the university, according to the CSU system website. Mike Uhlenkamp, a spokesperson for the California State University Chancellor’s office, said that Gov. Newsom has recognized the fact that the CSUs have had successful graduation rates and decided to supply the system with extra funds. “He believes in our mission.

He believes in the trustees and the chancellor and the campus president to use the funds that are available for the benefit of our students, which is really for the benefit of California,” said Uhlenkamp. Uhlenkamp also said that Gov. Newsom has proposed an additional $262 million in onetime funds for the CSUs, which would be used to finance students’ basic needs and the renovation of academic buildings over 40 years old. “The budget proposal isn’t necessarily about saving money, but rather investing more into the programs that the CSU currently has,” Uhlenkamp said. “What we’re trying to do is seek additional funds because

we want to grow. We want to expand course offerings. We want to hire more people.” For Cal State Fullerton, the budget could mean extra funding for overall student quality of life and education. CSUF President Framroze Virjee stated that Gov. Newsom also proposed an increase in Cal Grant funding and financial aid separate from the budget. This, he said, would benefit about a third of the students at CSUF who pay for their education using such aid. The budget itself would allow CSUF to improve campus technologies, update facilities, hire more tenure track faculty and continue to support programs like Project Rebound and

Tuffy’s Basic Needs. “Our goal is to increase access for students to come to Cal State Fullerton while maintaining a high, rigorous academic program here so they’re prepared when they graduate,” Virjee said. Another program supported by the new budget proposal will be the Graduation Initiative of 2025, a project that aims to nurture the growth of graduation rates within six years. The initiative helped 105,431 students earn their degree in the 2017-2018 school year. However, Virjee said it utilizes resources that can often strain the CSU’s budget because it enables students to take SEE AID

The Republicans set a 3:30 p.m. deadline on Jan. 28 which they needed to know for sure whether or not Rubin would be coming, but since no one answered their email in time, they were forced to cancel the event. “There were some last minute issues that arose relating to costs and they had considered a cancellation,” said Brooke Paz,

More money will come to the university with new CSU budget. CONTINUED FROM 1 In Gov. Newsom’s budget proposal the initiative will be allotted an extra $45 million to expand course sections for students across the CSUs, according to Uhlenkamp. Associate Vice President of Government and Community Relations at CSUF, Tami Bui, said that the budget will allow the CSUs to enroll 7,000 more eligible students. This head count is equivalent to a two percent increase in enrollment. Virjee said that while the budget has the potential to

provide funds for many important elements at CSUF, it first needs to be approved by the legislature. After it is approved, the budget is then sent to the central office of the CSUs and from there, it is decided how the money will be dispersed among all 23 campuses. The final decision for the budget will be revealed in July. “There’s lots of discussions and hearings and negotiations between the governor and the legislature regarding what the eventual budget will be,” Virjee said. “But it is a wonderful first start for the CSU.” VISIT US AT: DAILYTITAN.COM

Forum provides city council candidates a platform There were 18 candidates being interviewed to fill the vacancy. ANDRE SALAZAR Asst. News Editor

City of Fullerton residents had the opportunity to hear candidates’ qualifications and reasons of why they should be appointed as the new member of City Council last week. Neighbors United For Fullerton hosted the Fullerton City Council Vacancy Applicant Forum event in the conference center of the Fullerton Public Library. Neighbors United For Fullerton (NUFF) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit community organization that provides information about local issues, concerns and government activities. The group also offers free public forums to discuss subjects related to community interest and civic involvement. The event was broken down into two phases, the first of which gave the applicants 90 seconds to introduce themselves and their qualifications. The second phase was described by NUFF Chair Josh Newman as a “lightning round of questions” that were deliberately framed to get short distinct answers. The applicants answered questions involving issues such as approval and location of a home for the homeless, city sales tax and whether or not to allow development on the West Coyote Hills land. Of the 26 applicants for the open seat, 18 were present for the evening and had backgrounds that ranged from law and the city’s planning commission to teaching and even former members of city council. Applicant Omar Siddiqui

listed a number of qualifications that included his career as a trial lawyer fighting for Coyote Hills to remain undeveloped, helping the city save millions of dollars by suggesting to put clay pellets in Laguna Lake and working as an advisor to the FBI on national security and counterterrorism. “I think naturally by my background and trade, I’m a problem solver, and I think that’s what our city needs right now is to get great backgrounds,” Siddiqui said. “Background in law, background in engineering, background in national security and law enforcement and bring

those problem solving skills to council.” Chris Gaarder, Chairman of the Fullerton Planning Commission and policy advisor for Orange County, said he feels that his position as chair helps his argument for why he should be appointed to the open seat. He emphasized his knowledge of the city’s issues such as roads, the budget and economic development. “I would say we need more housing in general, particularly for students near Cal State Fullerton, so we can get them close to class so they’re not trying to

come in early and sleep to get a parking spot,” Gaarder said. Arnel Dino, a business consultant and 36-year resident of Fullerton, said that one of the issues he would address if appointed to the seat would be to rebuild the trust between the city of Fullerton and its residents. “We’ve been through too many things and we have issues like infrastructure, like homelessness that definitely need to be issued, but I think first off is regaining the trust of our residents and our neighbors,” Dino said. Fullerton resident Donald

Kinda said that all of the candidates sounded interested and dedicated to the community. Kinda pointed out Siddiqui as someone he was impressed by among the candidates. “I was very impressed with his credentials,” Kinda said. “He’s involved in law, engineering and he’s fighting for Coyote Hills.” The city council decided to appoint Jan Flory at their Jan. 29th meeting, but the 25 other applicants could be potential candidates in 2020.

Fullerton city council candidates wait to share their stances with residents. CONTINUED FROM 1 For the city of Fullerton, holding a special election would have cost the city more than $428,000. If a new council member was not appointed by Feb. 2, Fullerton would have had to hold a special election in November 2019, which would leave the council without a member for the better part of a year. “I think this was a fair process, as fair as it could be. I do think it’s in the best interest for the city to have an appointment at this stage because I don’t really think we have half a million dollars to throw around on an election for a one year term,” candidate Chris Gaarder said. Despite opposition, Silva stood by the council’s appointment process and said their decision was in the best interest of the city. “I think it went pretty well given the short time we had from opening up applications then doing the turnaround, it VISIT US AT: DAILYTITAN.COM

wasn’t going to be an easy decision,” Silva said. “I think right now having someone to help us and knowing that they’re not going to run in two years, I think that gives everyone else a fair chance to run in 2020.” Flory will serve as on the council until 2020 and stated several times that she will not seek re-election. The council also heavily considered Carvahlo for the open seat, but her plans to run for council again swayed the opinion for Flory. Flory, who will now be at the focal point of 2019’s decisions due to her appointed status, has plans for handling Fullerton’s main issues such as infrastructure, affordable housing, alleviating homelessness. “I am gratified and honored that the council had the confidence to name me as an appointee but I think I’ve got a long track record with the city and I think they felt I would be a steady hand on the matter,” Flory said.

Review: James Blake’s solo comeback ‘Assume Form’ is his first album since 2016 and includes myriad genres. ALEX BOSSERMAN Illustrator

A lone piano flourishes out into the darkness — then a click, a bass hit and then James Blake. His voice, heavy and soulful, rests upon the light and airy strokes of the piano. “I hope this is the first day, that I connect motion to feeling,” he sings. “Assume Form,” released Jan. 18, is both the title and opening track for Blake’s newest album. It’s the first time hearing from Blake in some time. His last solo effort was in 2016. Since then, Blake has become a popular collaborator and producer, working with the likes of Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar on “Lemonade” and the soundtrack to “Black Panther,” respectively. “Assume Form” is aptly titled with respect to Blake’s past collaborations and works that are now culminating into this solo career. As such, Blake rings in Travis Scott to go “sicko mode” on a new beat. “Mile High” is the second track that introduces just the right amount of energy. It’s chill and laid back, a late night track that flows right out of the title track’s newfound confidence. Scott’s melodies are addictive as ever. Another trap-flavored song immediately follows, with “Tell Them” continuing to deliver on the nocturnal vibes. The mood switches up in the next portion of the album. Samples that sound as if they’re lifted from a Disney movie glide in and out of the instrumentation, surrounding lyrics of infatuation and carefree love. “I’ll Come Too” is honeymoon stage incarnate, with a nostalgic sample and Blake singing “I don’t

wanna go home, shall we drive from zone to zone?” In “Barefoot in the Park,” Rosalía accompanies Blake, which results in what sounds like a modern-day duet on the Moroccan coast — at dusk. An ethereal loop cocoons the pair, with the flamenco claps that appeared in “Tell Them” also appearing on this track; it’s a home away from home for the featured flamenco-pop singer. For non-Spanish speaking fans of Rosalía, it is a treat to hear her sing in English. The heavy beats return on “Where’s the Catch?,” a song in which Blake’s earlier confessions of love turn paranoid. André 3000 rips through his verse, then sings along with Blake that “everything’s rose.” Every rose has its thorn, though, and perhaps Blake feels his love is too good to be true. Perhaps his desire to “assume form” and accept love is constantly distracted by his own heady anxieties. This is something that is brutally acknowledged in “Don’t Miss It.” A hauntingly beautiful vocal melody cries out as Blake mockingly states “Everything is about me / I am the most important thing.” He goes on to list all he missed in life, whether it was due to depression or his own ego. He warns the listener, “Don’t miss it, don’t miss it like I did.” In the more intimate, “Lullaby for My Insomniac,” Blake reverses the perspective. “Sleep happens to you, it’s not a failure if you can’t.” Though he is literally singing his lover to sleep, he is also assuring himself that some things are out of his control, that the ebb and flow of life is natural. For the instrumentation, strings and pianos sound plucked from several musical cultures and featured artists come from all walks of life. Yet, it all feels

ALEX BOSSERMAN / DAILY TITAN

connected. The perspective is what really sells “Assume Form.” It has a global but intimate atmosphere, like drifting in and out of sleep on an international flight,

peering down at the veins of cities below. Topics broached aren’t just relatable and impactful, they are decidedly modern. Ultimately, Blake is seeking connection, something that has become

more and more complicated in the internet age. For those who are interested in downtempo, hip-hop, electronic or pop, “Assume Form” is a must-listen.

2019 Super Bowl’s best and worst ads Just like the game, these commercials also have winners and losers. NATHAN NGUYEN Lifestyle Editor

Millions of viewers tuned in to watch football during the 2019 Super Bowl but the real attraction was the commercials. Advertisements that play during the break draw in a much broader audience as non-sports enthusiasts can enjoy the humor without knowing anything about football. Each second of airtime during the Super Bowl cost $175,000 and each 30-second advertisement cost over $5 million, according to AL.com. While some Super Bowls deliver a goldmine of meme-worthy content, this year’s game was one to forget as the Los Angeles Rams lost to the New England Patriots 13-3. Not even the commercials could have saved the NFL from the drudge match that took place, but a few good ones left a memorable impression. The most interesting thing that happened before halftime was when Steve Carell, Cardi B and Lil Jon collaborated on the “Pepsi is OK” commercial in a rendition of Cardi B’s song “I Like It.” Michael Bublé stole the show in Bubly’s Sparkling Water ad that poked fun at the pronunciation of his peculiar last name. Amazon and Bud Light together spent over $20 million to air their commercials. While most of the Super Bowl advertisements had 30 seconds to a minute of screen time, both Amazon and Bud Light had over a minute total. VISIT US AT: DAILYTITAN.COM

It’s no surprise that the bigger brands had longer and better commercials. Some of the best advertisements came from Google, Microsoft and Toyota. Microsoft’s two-minute commercial tugged at heartstrings while promoting its new adaptive controller using anecdotal stories from young gamers with disabilities. “We all win” serves as a memorable slogan that showed Microsoft’s initiative to create accessible technology to increase opportunity. Both of Google’s commercials, “Job Search for Veterans” and “100 Billion Words”, used ethos as an appeal. With

the first ad featuring the site’s utility in job search and the latter eliminating language barriers to create unity, Google successfully captured the diverse audience that watched the game. Out of the four auto commercials that aired during the Super Bowl, Toyota took the trophy for having the most noteworthy idea by ingeniously paralleling Antoinette “Toni” Harris, the first woman to play collegiate football on a scholarship, with the strength of the RAV4 hybrid. That being said, Mercedes-Benz is definitely runner-up in the automobile commercial department for

effectively highlighting the voice command function of their A-class sedan through hilarious and amusing exaggerations of other non-vehicle related commands. While there were many memorable moments, there were also commercials that no one will remember at all. Luke Wilson’s role as a “close talker” in Colgate’s ad made for a very unnerving 30 seconds. The only thing memorable about this commercial was how uncomfortable it undoubtedly made everyone feel. On the subject of bad memories, the Bon & Viv Spiked Seltzer ad kicked off the

Super Bowl with too much CGI and women who are too grown to play mermaids. For an ad directed toward adults, it’s premature. The Washington Post’s Democracy Dies in Darkness message closed out the commercials on a more serious tone, advocating for the justice of journalists lost in the line of duty. The Post emphasized that journalists are a part of democracy as they hold the government accountable while safeguarding the interests of readers. Ultimately, the 2019 Super Bowl wasn’t very memorable and neither were the commercials.

Dip into culture through LA museums These exhibits explore Latinx, African-American and Western culture. KRISTINA GARCIA Lifestyle Editor

SoCal Museum’s Annual FreeFor-All Day was Saturday and Sunday, where 45 Southern California museums offered free general admission to the public. But for those who missed out — don’t panic. Most Southern California museums offer free general admission certain days throughout the year, so here are a few to explore if you want a change of pace. LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes Located on North Main Street in Los Angeles, LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes is devoted to Mexican and Mexican-American culture/ influences in Southern California and Los Angeles. A couple of its exhibits include “¡Ya Basta! The East L.A. Walkouts and the Power of Protest” and “LA Starts Here!” “¡Ya Basta! The East L.A. Walkouts and the Power of Protest” revolves around the civil rights Chicano student movement in East Los Angeles. The exhibit features photographs, memorabilia, music, documents and other elements on display to tell the story of the East L.A. walkouts and Latinx activism. This exhibit will be available until Feb. 25. In the 50th anniversary

commemoration of the walkouts, learn how those students fought to change the unequal conditions in their high schools. “LA Starts Here!,” an ongoing bilingual exhibit, is centered around Mexican-American culture and how it has shaped Los Angeles. Take a dive into Los Angeles history through a Mexican-American lens at LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes, and see the influence Spanish colonization and the Chicano movement had on the city. California African American Museum This museum, found on the corner of Exposition Boulevard and Figueroa Street, features

African-American culture, art and history in California. A couple of its exhibits include “Los Angeles Freedom Rally, 1963” and “California Bound: Slavery on the New Frontier, 1848–1865.” “Los Angeles Freedom Rally, 1963” is primarily focused on Martin Luther King Jr.’s address to 40,000 people in South Los Angeles. This historical event was named one of the largest civil rights rallies in the country. Visitors will be able to view photographs and other memorabilia in this exhibit, and discover the reason why Wrigley Field played a crucial role in this rally. This exhibit will be on display until March 3. The “California Bound: Slavery on the New Frontier, 1848–1865”

exhibit takes its visitors through the 19th century when California was undergoing an “underrecognized involvement with slavery,” according to the museum’s website. Historical documents and photographs from this exhibit will be open to the public until April 28. Autry Museum of the American West Across from the L.A. Zoo, visitors can find this museum on Western Heritage Way in Los Angeles at Griffith Park. The Autry Museum brings attention to the American West as it connects the past and present through artifacts, art, film and memorabilia. Some of the museum’s exhibits include “LA RAZA” and “California

Road Trip.”“LA RAZA,” which will be open through Feb. 10, highlights a 1970s bilingual newspaper by the same name that had a lasting impact on the Chicano movement. Visitors will be able to view the archives and learn how photographers and journalists at the publication paved the way for Chicano activism. “California Road Trip” is an ongoing exhibit that is perfect for those wanting to experience the beautiful views of Joshua Tree National Park or the airy desert of Death Valley all from the comfort of a single room.

Asst. Social Media Editor

From the “Astronaut” and “Hendrix,” to “Fire Marshal” and “Pluto,” hip-hop artist Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn, best known as Future, has taken on multiple identities, yet has made it clear that there are meanings behind the different titles. The Atlanta artist has evolved through his different albums and identities to create another persona he proclaims to be the wizard of hip-hop. This leads us to his seventh studio album, “The WIZRD.” Days before the album released, Future gave fans a little taste of the music by putting snippets of different songs on his Instagram stories and pairing them with pictures of various villains such as the Wizard from “The Wizard of Oz,” Saruman from “Lord of the Rings” series and Lord Voldemort from the “Harry Potter” series. The 20-track album runs for an hour, a typical duration time for a Future album. It also

ly sitting at number one on Billboard’s top 200 albums, this puts Future at six number one albums that have made the famous chart. Future has managed to collect these accolades in less than a four-year period. Billboard compares this to English music icon Elton John’s success, as he was the last artist to have that same amount of success in that short amount of time. The length of the album may seem long, but with smooth transitional flows from one song to the next, listeners can easily immerse themselves in the storyline within each song. Future takes listeners through a journey of his life, explaining who he is and the decisions behind his actions. The rapper starts the album off with “Never Stop,” a song that displays his pride and highlights how far he’s come as a musician. Throughout the song, it becomes clear to the listener how thankful he is for the milestones he’s achieved, and that he has no intention of stopping.

in his lyrics: “Came by myself, I’ma leave with your friends I can promise you that.” “Temptation” takes a different, but not uncommon, route for Future, as the song gives listeners a glimpse into his dark past. The artist divulges the different demons he has faced throughout his life: “It’s so hard, it’s so hard these perkies keep me sane/Well I can’t love her like she need me, that’s what you get when you thinkin’ I’m average.” For those who are not familiar with Future and want to know what song to listen to from “The WIZRD,” check out “First Off,” featuring Travis Scott. Right when the song starts, Scott’s style is apparent as it is mixed into Future’s slower beats, giving a more universal taste for multiple audiences. Another track new fans might appreciate is “Unicorn Purp,” featuring Young Thug and Gunna. It came to no surprise that Future and Young Thug, two well-known trap/hip-hop artists, would join in on a song together for the new album.

Audrey Hepburn creates lasting influence A lifelong role model sets a path that many can follow.

ANGELINA DEQUINA Asst. Opinion Editor

Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe were two women who had substantial influence on the world of beauty, but when it comes down to who exhibited beauty both inside and out, Hepburn was unparalleled. Hepburn’s defiance of social norms makes her stand out from other role models of her time. Monroe was largely regarded as a sex symbol and personified this in many of her films. While it is not necessarily a bad thing to be viewed as a sex symbol, Monroe’s sexual persona didn’t challenge societal standards in the way that Hepburn did. Hepburn’s role in the 1957 film “Funny Face” is a good example of how she challenged societal standards. In the movie, she portrayed an intellectual bookstore clerk who is persuaded to become a model even though she felt that the modeling industry was “chichi” and “unrealistic.” Both Hepburn and Monroe’s stardom peaked in the 1950s. This was a time where men and women still strictly adhered to traditional gender roles, according to the Khan Academy website. In America, the idea of the nuclear family kept most women at home.

In the United Kingdom, where Hepburn was raised, circumstances were similar. English women often married young and were expected to fulfill housewife duties in lieu of a career, according to Historic UK’s website. It could be argued that Monroe’s open sexuality defied social norms. Her confident and alluring personality in movies like “Niagara” taught women to embrace their sexuality and served as a precursor to the American sexual revolution of the 1960s. Yet amid all these things, Monroe lacked originality. She still represented the ideal

American woman of the 1950s with her platinum blonde hair, cherry-colored lips and ditzy attitude. Hepburn was unconventional even in the way she looked. She was renowned for her classy sense of style and her unique makeup routine, which included her iconic squared eyebrows. Her eyebrows may seem irrelevant but they represented a significant part of her overall charm. By sporting thick, straight brows, Hepburn redefined the classic laws of beauty and blurred the line between traditionally masculine and feminine features.

She embodied who the average woman was, rather than what they ought to be, which earned her a place in many magazines’ rankings of top movie stars. Hepburn’s career in acting wasn’t the only thing that made her a good role model. She also spent five years doing humanitarian work in Africa and Latin America and served as a special ambassador to the United Nations. She started her humanitarian work in 1988 and completed it in 1993, according to IMDb. Her work as a

humanitarian was something that showcased her inner beauty because it demonstrated she could be a role model in the United States and abroad. Though some of her films were similar to Monroe’s, Hepburn didn’t let the world define her, making her a lasting inspiration to many. Her legacy is best exemplified by her quote, “Happy girls are the prettiest.” This, combined with her forward-thinking personality, set Hepburn ahead of her time.

Super Bowl disappoints Titans comeback bid stuffed by rivals The New England Patriots defeat the Los Angeles Rams 13-3 in the 2019 Super Bowl for their sixth title in franchise history. JULIUS CHOI JORDAN MENDOZA ARNULFO GONZALEZ DEMETRIOUS HERRERA Sports Desk

The New England Patriots defeated the Los Angeles Rams 13-3 in the 2019 Super Bowl to capture their sixth Super Bowl victory, tying the Steelers for the most in league history. All six championships have come with quarterback Tom Brady and head coach Bill Belichick at the helm. The 16 points is the lowest combined score in NFL history. The lone touchdown was scored by Patriots running back Sony Mitchel with seven minutes left in the fourth quarter. The Daily Titan sports desk weighed in on what happened Sunday night. Julius Choi, Sports Editor: I have not seen a Super Bowl this boring since 2014 when the Seattle Seahawks defeated the Denver Broncos by 35 points. Considering how both teams were ranked in the top four in points per game in the regular season and top three among playoff teams, this year’s Super Bowl was not supposed to be this low scoring. No performance was more underwhelming than Todd Gurley’s 10 carries for 35 yards. After leading the team and placing third in the NFL in rushing yards (1,251) in the regular season, Gurley was nowhere to be found in the postseason. I’m officially dubbing this the Disappointment Bowl. Jordan Mendoza, Sports Editor: This year’s Super Bowl was supposed to be an

offensive thriller. The great Tom Brady was set to face the upstart Los Angeles Rams and the offensive guru Sean McVay, but instead, we got 133. While both offenses struggled from the start, the Rams looked beat early on in the game. Each of their six first-half drives went no more than five plays, and four of them were three-and-outs. Sixty-seven7 of the 69 yards on the lone touchdown drive were by Brady, showing why many consider him the greatest of all time, coming in clutch when he needs to. Jared Goff’s late interception showed he still has a lot of time before he is ready for the big stage, but the Patriots outplayed Los Angeles, and earned their sixth Super Bowl. Arnie Gonzalez, Assistant Sports Editor: The Patriots looked as if they were going to have a rough start when Brady threw an interception with his first pass. This was not the case as the Rams were forced to punt after the offense only managed to get 2 yards. The 2019 Super Bowl MVP Julian Edelman was deserving of the award as he managed to get 10 receptions that piled up to 141 yards. Demetri Herrera, Assistant Sports Editor: That’s it, the last vestige of Brady’s foreseeable career as a professional football player is over. “Brady went out on top,” the beginning of his hypothetical ANITA HUOR/ DAILY TITAN obituary might read, “hailed by many as the greatest of all time,” it might continue. What that imaginary piece of paper might not emphasize, however, is the fact that when Brady leaves, one of the team’s best receivers will be a free agent after 2019 (Rob Gronkowski), and the famed Bill Belichick has nothing left to prove in New England. So here’s to looking ahead, Patriots fans — you may have won tonight, but the future is grim and Brady-less.

Men’s basketball player departs team Guard Landon Kirkwood no longer plays for CSUF basketball. HARRISON FAIGEN Freelancer

Titans guard Landon Kirkwood has left the CSUF men’s basketball team, the athletics department confirmed to the Daily Titan after removing Kirkwood from its public roster page. Kirkwood’s removal comes on the heels of the team quietly suspending him for over a month amid domestic violence allegations, and only confirming the suspension when made aware of the Daily Titan’s investigation. Kirkwood could not be reached for comment on this story. The Orange County Superior Court issued an emergency protective order to Kirkwood’s then-girlfriend Alexis Renea Barkley on Oct. 28, 2018, followed by a domestic violence restraining order on Nov. 2, 2018, court records show. Both of those orders expired

when neither Barkley nor Kirkwood appeared at a court hearing on Nov. 21, which in Barkley’s case she had already left the state. According to the emergency order, Barkley accused Kirkwood of grabbing and throwing her to the ground to prevent her from leaving his apartment, then pulling her out of her vehicle and throwing her down again to take her phone on Oct. 28. The University police officer who signed the emergency protective order for Barkley said that there were “visible injuries on Barkley.” Barkley posted photos of her injuries on Facebook on Oct. 30 as part of a 1,330-word post. It is Daily Titan’s policy to omit the names of people who are reported to be victims of domestic violence, but Barkley widely publicized her account on Facebook and spoke freely to the Daily Titan. One month before Barkley obtained her restraining order against Kirkwood, University Police arrested her on suspicion of domestic violence, according to University Police Capt. Scot Willey. A spokesperson for the Orange

County District Attorney’s office said that the September case against Barkley was not pursued due to “lack of sufficient evidence.” Kirkwood did not play in any games for the Titans this season following the suspension. At the time of the original report of Kirkwood’s suspension, the CSUF Dean of Students Hallie Hunt declined to comment on the situation, citing FERPA despite it not applying in this case due to an exception in the law. FERPA states, “an institution may disclose to anyone — not just the victim — the final results of a disciplinary proceeding, if it determines that the student is an alleged perpetrator of a crime of violence or non-forcible sex offense, and with respect to the allegation made against him or her, the student has committed a violation of the institution’s rules or policies.” Hunt said the school was “still unable to comment on this situation.”

CSUF Women’s Basketball Drops Third in a Row to Rivals Cal State Fullerton women’s basketball came up short against Long Beach State 59-53, after nearly erasing a 22-point deficit but was still dealt their third consecutive loss. The Titans’ slow start proved to be the deciding factor as the team missed its first 17 shot attempts from the field to start the game. Sophomore forward Carolyn Gill credited their poor shooting to settling for jump shots instead of taking the ball to the rim. “I think honestly we could have gotten to the rim a lot more and either gotten fouled and got to the free throw line, and then used those free throws to get our shots right,” Gill said. The 49ers were able to jump out to a 16-2 lead by the end of the first quarter, as CSUF’s only points came from the free throw line. The first field goal for the Titans, came on a 3-pointer by Hannah Thompson with 6:19 left in the second quarter. This kickstarted the Titans’ offense, as they added another nine by the end of the quarter to total 15 points. Heading into the locker room at the half, the Titans trailed by 19 with a score of 34-15. Head coach Jeff Harada was able to motivate his team as their second half proved much better than the first.

“It was time to just play with some pride and do the little things to chip away,” Harada said. “We were embarrassing ourselves out there.” Titans outscored Long Beach State in each of the final two quarters, including a 10 point margin in the fourth as the Titans scored 21 points as opposed to the 49ers’ 11. This final push in the fourth quarter brought the Titans within three points with eight seconds left to play after Hannah Thompson found Daeja Smith for a layup. Smith recorded her seventh double-double of the season, scoring 10 points and grabbing 11 rebounds. Gill served as another top performer as she was just one rebound shy of a double-double with 13 points and nine rebounds. Although the Titans fell short, this game provided them with valuable lessons and Gill was proud of her team. “Tonight we showed how good of a team we actually are regardless of the score. We battled and I’m proud of my team for that,” Gill said. Despite being upset about the first two and a half quarters, coach Harada was pleased with how the team finished the game and believe this will help them moving forward. “We erased a 20-plus point lead and gave ourselves a chance with under a minute left. I think that shows some grit, some toughness, just some desire,” Harada said. “Hopefully the lesson learned is we start the game the way we finished it and we will be much better off the next time we play them.”
