SQE denounces tuition raise Titans

Activist group advocates for fully funded CSU. BRANDON PHO Daily Titan

“This is what democracy looks like,” a crowd of students chanted at Becker Amphitheater Tuesday during a Students for Quality Education (SQE) rally protesting the CSU tuition increase.

“The message we got from the board of trustees is that students don’t matter and that they can continue to pass the bill off on the students, and we’re not going to accept that,” said SQE President Jon Schreiber.

Schreiber stressed the need for a long-term solution to the “mess.”

“The university faces a critical juncture where additional revenue is needed if we are to continue the trajectory that has seen campuses reach all-time highs in graduation rates,” said Steve Relyea, CSU executive vice chancellor and chief financial officer in a March press release.

The trustees are hoping to get the additional funding from the state legislature, calling the matter “not a course of action that is taken lightly,” Relyea said.

FULLERTON – Following its 2-1 series victory over UC Irvine, Cal State Fullerton’s position on Baseball America’s top-25 stayed at No. 14 in the country.

CSUF rival Long Beach State moved up to No. 8 in the country after its series sweep of UC Davis over the weekend. CSUF now sits 3.5 games behind the Dirtbags in the Big West standings, with Long Beach having played in more conference series than the Titans. “ “We’re not really focused on Long Beach at all. We’re just focused on next series and just playing hard and focusing on us, we don’t really need to focus on anybody else,” said center fielder Scott Hurst.

Resident-only parking approved Council votes for 24-hour permits on streets near CSUF. KEVIN LEY Daily Titan In a 3-1 vote, Fullerton City Council approved a 24hour resident-only parking permit area near Cal State Fullerton. The parking restrictions came after a petition from local residents who were frustrated with students parking in their neighborhood.

The permit parking affects an area close to Chapman Park, less than a mile away from school. The newly permitted streets are on Santa Ysabel Avenue and Clark Avenue.

“I think we as a community have to deal with the complicated problem ... We are a college town,” said Council member Jennifer

Fitzgerald. “Because this city provides free parking, why are students going to pay to park on campus when they can park in front of your house?”

Most Fullerton areas with permit parking are enforced between 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

However, due to the consistency of students parking in the area after 7 p.m., the council made the restrictions 24-hour.

Mayor Bruce Whitaker was the only member who voted against the permits, citing unforeseen consequences with more exemptions made to restrict parking. Council member Greg Sebourn was absent and did not vote.

“If you impose any form of restrictions, you are creating a new hazard where none exists. You are creating the ability for people to be cited or towed,” Whitaker said.

SQE member Liz Sanchez encourages onlookers to join SQE’s movement and spread their message Tuesday. The group invited speakers to come up and share messages of inclusivity and dissatisfaction with the cost of public education.

SQE: Rally advocates for social justice, immigrants CONTINUED FROM

The bandanas are to celebrate migrant workers and immigrants, Schreiber said.

“We’re not going to listen to the rhetoric that’s coming out of the presidential administration,” Schreiber said.

Laila Dadabhoy, incoming ASI president for the 2017-2018 school year, also

showed her support for both sides at the event.

“I have to remember that I don’t just represent one group on campus, I do represent all 42,000 students here,” Dadabhoy said. “An important aspect of that is being able to understand that there are so many different voices being present when all of them want to speak, and this is one of those times.”

Dadabhoy spoke to

members of the CSUF College Republicans, who also attended.

“Fortunately, I’ve had exposure to a lot of these people,” Dadabhoy said. “When people do come in with resolutions and complaints, I do kind of recognize them on a day-to-day basis. I did want to make sure that every group of students here currently felt welcome and comfortable expressing

their opinion.”

Carrying a flag that read “Power to the students,” the SQE crowd began a procession down Titan Walk that ended between Pollak Library and McCarthy Hall, near ASI Lobby Corps’ tuition-themed event.

“Spread the message,” said SQE member Liz Sanchez at the rally. “Spread this movement. Figure out a way we can all work together.”

Jerry Brown and remember the promise that you made many years ago,’” said ASI Lobby Corps Chief Officer Amanda Martinez.

When the CSU began drafting the budget for the upcoming year, the initial budget it proposed was $324.9 million to fund all CSUs across the state.

However, Brown decided to give the CSUs $157.2 million, leaving the CSU system short $167.7 million. It is because of this shortage that tuition increased.

“I think it’s not fair,” said freshman Kimberly Palominos. “The education is an investment not an expense, that’s the way it should be.”

The tuition increase was “not a course of action that is taken lightly,” said Steve Relyea, CSU executive vice chancellor and chief financial officer, in a press release in March.

“Through the

university’s robust financial aid program, we will ensure that students who require the most financial assistance will not face any additional burden associated with the tuition increase,” Relyea said.

If the state does not fund the trustees’ budget request, the tuition increase will help “add faculty, courses, advisors and other resources to improve students opportunities for success,” Relyea said.

Signs at the event detailed that if students are able to apply pressure on legislators to get complete funding, 3,600 more “qualified students” will be able to attend a CSU and 400 new faculty members will be added.

A huge chalkboard which read “Why Choose the CSU” was displayed in the Quad at Tuesday’s event.

Students were given the opportunity to

create a poster with personal reasons they chose to attend a CSU for higher education.

Students wrote reasons including “cost efficiency” and “1/10 of graduates are CSU graduates” on the chalkboard for others on campus to see.

“It’s already hard as it is. A lot of people are already taking out loans,” said freshman Carlo Villicana. “Just to increase it more, is going to make it difficult for them.”

Although Cal State Fullerton and other CSUs made efforts to make their students aware of laws that are directly affecting them, there still needs to be a fight every year to ensure legislators make public higher education a priority, Martinez said.

“The only reason it hasn’t been is because students don’t vote, so we’re the easiest targets to forget about,” Martinez said.

ASI Lobby Corps event calls for state funding CSU-wide tuition increase sparks outcry from students.

JADE LOVE Daily Titan Associated Students Inc. (ASI) and ASI Lobby Corps combined their last “Taco Tuesday” with “Advocacy Day” to raise awareness about the recently approved tuition increase and to advocate for complete funding of all CSUs.

Researcher examines collaboration between Dutch printmakers.

JORIAN GOLDBACH Daily Titan

In a Humanities-Social Sciences Building room filled with history majors and professors, Matthew Lincoln, Ph.D., showed the audience complex graphs and algorithms to explain his research on networking between artists in the 1600s.

Lincoln focused on computer-aided analysis of the social relation between Dutch artists and the people they collaborated with.

“It knows what people are in there, when they’re alive, during their life dates. This is complicated because you can also have influence after you’re dead,” Lincoln said. “And we make a connection when we know there is an artwork connecting the two of them.”

Lincoln is a data research specialist at the Getty Research Institute who uses “computer-aided analysis of cultural datasets to help model long-term trends in iconography, art markets, and the social relation between artists,” according to his website.

His talk: “Continuity/Discontinuity: A Networked Approach to the Golden Age of Dutch Printmaking” was the final speech in the “Digital Humanities Spring Colloquium” series.

Lincoln explained printmaking was not usually done by one person.

While one artist may draw the design, another who specializes in cutting metal would engrave it and a third party would publish it, he said.

To evaluate these networks, Lincoln used the programming language “R,” a “library of code that scholars, statisticians, and mathematicians have written” to break up the large networks into hundreds of

Getty Research Institute data research specialist Matthew Lincoln, Ph.D., gave the final keynote speech for the “Digital Humanities Spring Colloquium” series. He spoke about how he created models tracing how Dutch artists in the 1600s worked together to make prints.

much smaller networks.

Lincoln explained the connections can be measured with the dynamic network analysis graph, which resembled a web connecting everyone. He was the one who chose which metrics would make sense for the art research question.

“The math is done by the computer, according to rules specified by mathematicians, but you have to understand what’s going on with it. As far as programming it and coding it, I definitely did that myself and had to learn how to do that,” Lincoln said.

Sometimes when looking at data, you need to look from a different perspective, said history major and audience member Jonathan Davenport.

“It’s always going to give you a number, that’s just what it’s going to do,” Davenport said. “Make sure you look at it with comparing it to other contexts or what you would think it should look like and what other programs would say it should look like.”

History major and audience member Patrick Guarte found it interesting that a program can be used to find the missing connection in art. “(These) connections, you wouldn’t have necessarily been able to check out without realizing these digital techniques because it’s just impossible to see these relationships on paper. You actually have to plot it out in programs,” Guarte said.

Lincoln’s speech addressed how multiple artists often worked together on printmaking projects, with one drawing the design, one engraving metal and another publishing the piece.

Permit: Residents split on student parking CONTINUED FROM

Residents were divided on the issue during public comment. Out of the eight residents that spoke at the city council meeting, three were against permit parking.

One resident, who lives on Santa Ysabel and

Mission, said despite living in the neighborhood for over 20 years, some of her neighbors won’t talk to her because she chose not to sign.

“It was with great sadness in my heart that this petition was passed around these streets indicating to stop Cal State

Fullerton, Hope University and all students from parking in the streets,” she said.

Others supported passing the petition due to the increase in traffic, parked cars causing blind spots when residents pull out of their driveways and trash they believe students

leave behind.

“Some of the problems are just more trash. Our trash cans are moved and put up on the curb, driveways are partially blocked and a lot more vehicle traffic.” said resident Scott Heffaern.

Council members and residents on both sides

of the argument agreed the parking issue are the schools’ problem and should be their responsibility to fix.

Fullerton resident Katrina Chase said while there are repercussions for students parking in the neighborhood near campus, there are no repercussions

for the school.

“I’m actually here tonight to ask for you, city council members and staff of Fullerton, to start putting pressure on Cal State Fullerton to be good neighbors and add an adequate number of parking spaces for these students,” Chase said.

Soundtrack hooks fans on ‘Guardians’ “Awesome Mix Vol. 1” was a soundtrack game changer.

SARAH EL-MAHMOUD Daily Titan There are few movies defined by their soundtracks alone. “Saturday Night Fever,” “Flashdance,” and “Dirty Dancing” are among the best-selling records of all time. Music in these movies defined the era of the film by using current and original songs.

“Guardians of the Galaxy: Awesome Mix Vol. 1” is a compilation of the classic tracks used in the film, the first No. 1 movie soundtrack to be entirely comprised of old tunes.

“Guardians of the Galaxy” brought the alien worlds and its little-known sci-fi comic lore to screen.

It owes a great deal of its success by featuring a mixtape in the center of its story. “Awesome Mix Vol. 1” juxtaposed ‘60s and ‘70s tracks against beautiful spacescapes and action sequences in the first film.

If you can learn a lot about a person by his or her playlist, the music in the 2014 film paints a picture of a tight grip on Peter

Quill’s childhood and his roots on Earth. His “Awesome Mix” serves as a guide to the melodies of the past, which the character struggles with moving forward from as he plays it over and over throughout the adventure.

Chris Pratt as Peter Quill opens the film while dancing to the 1973 rock classic by Redbone, “Come and Get Your Love.” He uses a Walkman from his childhood, the only thing left from his short time on Earth.

The soundtrack is a character in and of itself, expressing much of the unsaid emotion between main character Peter Quill and his mother, whom the movie didn’t have the time to expand in any other way.

The music serves as a voice for their relationship throughout the movie, being the closest connection he has to a normal life.

A song such as “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough”

by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell contextualizes a mother’s assurance to her orphaned son, as StarLord reminisces about her and their shared passion for music throughout the film.

The most memorable scenes are the rare mix between this soundtrack and the movie itself. The humorous tune, “Escape (the Pina Colada Song)” by Rupert Holmes, plays while Quill attempts to steal his cassette tape back from a prison guard who kept it when they got arrested.

COURTESY OF HOLLYWOOD RECORDS

In “Guardians of the Galaxy,” Peter Quill’s mixtape soundtracks the sci-fi film with completely ‘60s and ‘70s tracks, creating a unique atmosphere that defines the movie’s success.

Scenes like these enable moments of pop-culture absurdity that catch audiences by surprise, especially those who are used to more typical space adventure films. It fittingly reflects Quill’s quirky personality by having comical music counteract the film’s more serious elements.

“Awesome Mix Vol. 1” serves two purposes as the viewer watches it for the first time. First: as a connection to the past for those familiar with the songs and

might have grown up with them. Second: as a means of discovery for a younger audience who may have never been caught listening to the “Jackson 5” or “The Runaways” before.

Without the carefully placed music in “Guardians of the Galaxy,” the movie wouldn’t hold up the same way and certainly wouldn’t have been as uniquely likable among audiences. All of its songs were just as accessible before the film’s release. However, this specific

compilation of music is original as a whole by creating its own vintage feel.

Music is often disconnected when watching a movie, but in “Guardians of the Galaxy,” it’s usually coming from a physical source that the characters can hear as well. The franchise brings an oddly authentic touch to its “superhero” by giving him a playlist composed of songs that make the audience feel closer to the vast Marvel Cinematic Universe.

As “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” travels across theaters this Friday, fans are especially excited to hear the new soundtrack that accompanies the film.

“Vol. 2” includes songs by Fleetwood Mac, George Harrison and Cat Stevens, which adds a different mood to the music in another predominantly classic rock collection. Only time will tell what emotional story it will leave audiences and if it will provide the same impact as the prior collection.

SPORTS Pitching: Workman puts in work for Titans

PAGE 5 WEDNESDAY MAY 3, 2017

CONTINUED FROM

The Titans still have time to make a late-season push in hopes of claiming their third straight Big West title as long as they can keep their record close to Long Beach. Fullerton finishes off the season with a three-game series at Goodwin Field against Long Beach that will likely decide who will take home the conference crown.

Fullerton’s offense is coming alive heading down the final stretch of the season.

Throughout the 18 games in March, the Titans posted a .256 batting average, .334 on-base percentage with 77 RBIs and 83 runs. In April the team improved in every category, hitting at a clip of .301 with a .411 on-base percentage while driving in 116 runs on 105 RBIs. While the batting has improved over the past month, the Titans have had a lack of power hitting throughout the entire season.

Hurst leads the team with

four home runs on the year, tied for 16th in the Big West Conference. All the teams in the conference other than Cal Poly and UC Irvine have two players ranked ahead of Hurst.

Fullerton has never been a program to win with power hitting but a lack of it may hurt the Titans down the stretch and going into the postseason.

In 2016, Timmy Richards led the Titans with nine home runs whereas this season, he has two.

Pitching has been an issue for CSUF in April. The Titans finished the month with an 11-5 record while giving up double-digit runs in four of their five losses, including a season-high 13 runs allowed against both USC and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.

Workman honored Reliever Blake Workman stepped on the mound in the seventh inning of Saturday night’s 3-2 victory over UCI

and pitched a career-high six innings. Workman gave up just two hits while allowing zero runs.

“He had some grind in there.

It wasn’t an easy outing for him, but he was right in the thick of things,” said Titans Head Coach Rick Vanderhook.

Workman told the Daily Titan after the game that Vanderhook said he was done after the ninth inning. Workman responded to Vanderhook by saying he was going to have to “wrestle the ball out of his hands” for him to come out of the game.

Workman’s faith in himself was rewarded with both a win and a Big West Pitcher of the Week honor.

It is the first time in his career Workman has received the award and is the fourth Titan pitcher to be awarded the honor this season.

Fullerton is back on the diamond Friday in Hawaii at 9:35 p.m. when they take on the Rainbow Warriors.

Scott Hurst ranks second on the Titans in RBIs (24), third in walks (19) and third in stolen bases (4).

Hurst is one of two players to play in all 41 games and has the most at-bats on the team.

OPINION Yiannopoulos back as free-speech crusader

PAGE 6 MAY 3, 2017 WEDNESDAY

Milo Inc. aims to uphold First Amendment on college campuses.

RISHU BHARDWAJ Daily Titan

I

t’s not easy being a troll. That’s why Milo Yiannopoulos, former Breitbart senior editor and professional provocateur, is reportedly receiving $12 million in investments for proving his troll powers.

Yiannopoulos’ venture aims to revitalize free speech around the nation in the form of his new brand, Milo Inc. “Berkeley is going to become the free speech capital of the United States once again. I will make sure of it,” Yiannopoulos said in a Facebook post in a response to the recent cancellation of Ann Coulter’s speech at UC Berkeley.

Like a phoenix rising from its ashes, his first target is Berkeley campus, with the intention of running a “Free Speech Week” event through his new company.

After his own appearance at Berkeley being canceled due to protests that resulted in over $100,000 in damage, the professional troll

has found his niche. He has become the unofficial crusader for free speech.

Yiannopoulos’ passion for the First Amendment might just be what America is in need of.

After being permanently banned from Twitter for racially harassing actress Leslie Jones, some seemingly pro-pedophelia comments on a podcast, causing violent protests at UC Berkeley, losing a coveted book deal, then tanking on the Bill Maher show, Yiannopoulos is cashing in on his knack for getting a rise out of heated college students through debate.

While some of Yiannopoulos’ comments are objectively vile, bordering on hate speech, he is no gentle teddy bear looking to create peace among students, his intentions to use the First Amendment to its fullest extent are vital to keep free speech alive as the easily offended masses actively voice against his inflammatory opinions.

Hopefully, bringing the First Amendment back to Berkeley will be a beacon of hope as it’s clear that, nationwide, people look to the school as a stamp for cultural narrative despite its recent misguidings.

Although it seems that the riots and cancellations in Berkeley are having an effect on the stability of free speech in the U.S. today, thankfully some states are upholding the values that free speech poses.

In response to the events in Berkeley, Colorado has

moved to ban all freespeech zones on university campuses, according to the Colorado Independent.

Where previously those looking to spread some sort of message were confined to specific areas, speakers are now allowed to go wherever they please.

“You look at some of the things happening in Berkeley and other areas, there seems to be no balance and people are being denied free speech and you’re seeing the frustration and frankly, violence,” said State Senator Tim Neville, who co-sponsored the bill and explained the reasoning in an interview with local news outlet Western Slope Now. It’s no secret that the best and only way to come to any sort of consensus is to be able to have discussion.

Although, Yiannopoulos is aiming for a sort of discussion that fuels some fires, it seems that his tactics are in response to polarizing attitudes in political and social dialogue.

Despite his controversial methods, free speech in America is in need of some shock and awe, and who better a crusader.

The important thing to take away from all of Yiannopoulos’ inflammatory speech–and don’t get me wrong, it definitely is inflammatory–is that in it lies the hope for free expression. He just goes at it in the same rugged way a father teaches his son to be a man by not helping him up when he falls.

CATHRYN EDWARDS / DAILY TITAN

As Yiannopoulos prepares to come back from the Berkeley University riots like a phoenix rising from the ashes, his new media venture is gaining funds to help him spread free speech.

Yiannopoulos plans his comeback during “Free Speech Week,” and according to an interview with the Washington Post,

he plans to do whatever it takes to let his message be heard, claiming he has enough money to fund himself even if the university

refuses to help.

Hopefully, with $12 million, this troll can find the bridge everyone can speak freely under.
