Fullerton City Councilman Jesus Silva held an informal meeting at Panera Bread to give citizens a chance to talk with him one-on-one about issues they feel most prominently affect the city without having to do so in front of the entire city council.

Accompanied by coffee and pastries, Fullerton residents sat beside Fullerton Councilman Jesus Silva as he prepared his notepad, ready for their questions. For the public, it was an opportunity to have the

councilman’s attention all to themselves. For Silva, it was an opportunity to address constituents in person, instead of a faceless list of emails. The Panera Bread at the

corner of Chapman Avenue and State College Boulevard hosted the informal meeting, which was a part of Silva’s efforts to be more approachable to citizens. “The goal is to do some outreach to have the community members come to a spot closer to where they live so they can express their concerns,” Silva said. “Sometimes it’s a little intimidating speaking before the city council with everyone watching you.” The councilman addressed each citizen’s individual

concerns, including street repairs, which was a key point of discussion. “One of the big problems is that we don’t know what is the criteria for selecting the streets that get priority and repair. For example, the street I’ve lived on is a small cul-de-sac, but I’ve lived on it for 15 years ... We still don’t make the cut, even though our street is crumbling,” said Fullerton resident Ahmad Zahra. SEE SILVA

The California State University system announced Tuesday that it will raise wages for employees throughout the organization in a statement released by the CSU Office of the Chancellor. Faculty will see a 3.5 percent increase in their salaries as soon as Nov. 1, 2018. In 2019, salaries will be raised further by 2.5 percent. According to the Memorandum of Understanding between the CSU system and the California Faculty Association (CFA), which “represents 28,000 professors, lecturers, librarians, counselors and coaches” throughout the system, the collective bargaining agreement between the two groups will also be extended until June 30, 2020. “Collective bargaining agreements establish terms of employment (benefits, compensation, etc.) between employee

Titans streak into Big West CSUF hasn’t lost in four games as it prepares for conference play. YARESLY SANCHEZ-AGUILERA Sports Editor

Cal State Fullerton men’s soccer will begin conference play Thursday as it hits the road to face the UC Santa Barbara Gauchos. The Titans were able to take back the season after struggling with a twogame losing streak in early September, and have been able to achieve shutout wins. Freshman midfielder and defender Alex Juarez said that it’s due to the team’s newfound bond. “In preseason, there were a lot of new faces, so everything wasn’t clicking,” Juarez said. “But now, you can tell that everyone is getting closer and just bonding together.” The matches that the Titans found themselves falling in happened to be against some of the top-performing NCAA Division I teams.

Members of Cal State Fullerton and off-campus organizations participated in CSUF fraternity Pi Kappa Alpha’s cycling event to raise money for their philanthropic partner, the Taylor Trudeau Cycle for Life Foundation.

Biking a path for leukemia cure PIKE hosts a threeday fundraiser for cancer research. KATHERINE ABANDO Asst. Social Media Editor

Cycling side-by-side to the pulsing beat of music with racing hearts, breathing heavily and dripping in sweat, participants at BIKE with PIKE were motivated by a common fight against cancer.

The Pi Kappa Alpha (PIKE) fraternity at Cal State Fullerton hosted BIKE with PIKE, a threeday event in the spin room at the Student Recreation Center. PIKE chapters across the nation have hosted these events in the past, but CSUF hosted it for the first time last week. “(PIKE) is trying to engage with the Fullerton community more than ever,” said PIKE philanthropy chair John Good. “The reason why I wanted

to do philanthropy was because my grandfather actually passed away of blood cancer back in the ‘70s. So that was something that really affected my dad at the time, and it still does.” Participants pedaled on stationary bikes for their preferred amount of time, pledging to donate $5 for 10 minutes and $10 for 30 minutes of cycling. Those who didn’t want to cycle could still pledge a donation through a sponsored rider or purchase a t-shirt

in support. For four hours each day, the PIKE brothers motivated the 26 cyclists with hiphop and electronic dance music. On the second day, the Fullerton Fire Department brought their pink fire engine to campus to promote their sixth annual PINKtober event for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The Taylor Trudeau Cycle for Life Foundation was established after Taylor Trudeau, a PIKE alumnus from New Hampshire, died

from leukemia in 2008. In the past, the philanthropy donated $250,000 to the University of Texas to fund a clinical trial that treated a leukemia patient. For the past three years, the CSUF PIKE Mu Epsilon chapter raised the most funds across the nation for the foundation. By the end of this academic year, PIKE is hoping to raise over $20,000 for their national philanthropy. SEE BIKE

One of the chief questions residents asked Fullerton City Councilman Jesus Silva was how streets are prioritized when they need repaired. Silva told the Fullerton resident that SB-1 will provide more money to allocate for more road repairs.

Silva: Official hears concerns CONTINUED FROM

The councilman mentioned some potential relief on the horizon for the persistent problem of Fullerton road quality. “With that new bill, SB-1, we’re going to be getting, not this year but next year, about $3 million a year specifically for road repairs,” Silva said. Another citizen brought up the North Basin groundwater contamination underneath parts of Fullerton and Anaheim. “The (Orange County Water District) test drilled all around the property and they said it would probably cost $100 million to clean up,” one Fullerton resident said.

Silva said the city has been monitoring the issue with OCWD’s help, and was able to provide an update regarding the cost. “That’s the reason we in-

vited the EPA to come in and help us with that, so we can get some of these polluters, or people that we think caused the issue, to help pay for the cleanup,” Silva said.

“I read a couple different articles in several different newspapers about Angelo’s and Vinci’s being torn down,” said one Fullerton resident. Silva informed attendees

that no agreement had been reached with the owner of Angelo’s and Vinci’s Ristorante to sell their property, and that the property would only be developed if the owner was a willing partner. “We’re not going to take it from (the owner). We’re not doing imminent domain. This would only be a business deal,” Silva said. The councilman hopes that the city will be able to address the citizens’ concerns. “I think (the city of Fullerton) can make some progress on all of them or get them some information where they can look elsewhere or manage it,” Silva said.

Pollak Library faculty fellow and ‘Boom’ editor Jason Sexton said Tijuana was chosen for next Thursday’s event because physically crossing the border into Mexico expresses solidarity and commitment to undocumented immigrants.

‘Boom California’ event coming to Tijuana Publication focuses on undocumented immigration. RAYMOND PELAYO Staff Writer

“Boom California” will leave its usual space in the Pollak Library next Thursday to visit Tijuana and ruminate on Californian identity and undocumented immigrants. Co-sponsored by the California Historical Society, “Boom” will host an evening of live readings and music at the movie theater Cine Tonalá as part of its ongoing fall series

Undocumented California. “It’s a celebratory, reflective time thinking about our transnational identity as Californians,” said Pollak Library faculty fellow and “Boom” editor Jason Sexton. Contributors like University of California, Irvine associate professor Ana Rosas will share new pieces that will be published in “Boom .” Rosas’ article focuses on the emotional perspective of students dealing with the ambiguous fate of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. “I hope my piece energizes people to understand that we cannot be too worn down or too exhausted or

paralyzed by the emotional weight of it all,” Rosas said. Throughout the night attendees will have the chance to speak to “Boom” writers like Rosas. Following the speakers will be a collaborative performance with musician Ceci Bastida and Haitian refugees living in Tijuana. With the issues surrounding the future DACA and its recipients, this event aims to motivate both policymakers and individuals to take on new perspectives when thinking about immigration. “We want people to be inspired by this event and encouraged. We want people to

hope, to continue to dream,” Sexton said. For Sexton, Tijuana has always been part of the Californian consciousness and experience, but the location was chosen for the event primarily because he feels the physical act of crossing the border into Mexico expresses solidarity and commitment to undocumented immigrants. Students who care about these immigrants’ diverse experiences may “potentially find ways they might be able to become more aware,” Sexton said. “You can look at the last 40 years of history of Latin America and California. Students have changed the

world in many ways,” Sexton said. “So I very much hope students from Cal State Fullerton and elsewhere will come along to this event.” Rosas said because traveling to Tijuana is a big investment, going to the event shows that attendees care about the issues, which could make it a deeply rewarding experience for students. “When there is investment of this sort involved, there’s a lot to be gained. People listen differently. They participate differently. They’re more willing to ask questions. They’re more willing to give feedback,” Rosas said. As a first-generation American, CSUF alumnus

Omar Chavez said that he wants to attend the upcoming “Boom” event because he wants to show support for undocumented immigrants. “This is about an issue that we have right now that’s a really big part of our California culture,” Chavez said. Due to the position the White House has taken regarding immigration, Chavez said that unity is important, now more than ever. “It’s a time to stand together, and I think this event kind of reflects that,” Chavez said. The event will take place Oct. 5 from 7 to 9 p.m.

Friends and families of the PIKE fraternity have personally been affected by cancer. The brotherhood spent three four-hour sessions biking to help raise money toward their philanthropy partner in hopes of donating more than $20,000 this academic year.

Bike: Raising money for cancer research 1

BIKE with PIKE collaborated with multiple on-campus and off-campus organizations and individuals including: Professional cyclist John Janneck, Fullerton fireman Brian Seymour, Inter-fraternity Council President Colin Eacobellis and President of the Titan lacrosse team Jason Chin, some of whom were PIKE alumni.

As senior Angel Cortez cycled next to his PIKE brother whose father died from leukemia, he pushed himself and felt a sense of achievement at the end of the hourlong exercise. “Knowing what this means to him and what it means to everyone else, why not put my 100 percent in it?” Cortez said. As a sponsored rider, Seymour was motivated to cycle for four hours, keeping in

to both beginners and regular cyclists. Twomey felt great about being able to support

another fraternity’s philanthropy through the event. PIKE reached their goal for the event, raising $3,765. The fraternity has two upcoming philanthropy projects, the PIKE Auction, a bachelor auction, and Jurassic PIKE, a themed social event, both of which will take place later in the fall semester. Eacobellis’ participation in the event raised about $710, which was the most raised by a featured cyclist through

sponsorships and donations. He felt the hard work and pain of cycling during the event was well worth the cause. “Our goal is to shape how fraternity life is looked at here at Cal State Fullerton by making it more (of) a central point of leadership. Students have the chance to grow their college experience by getting involved in fraternity life with the opportunities that it promotes,” Eacobellis said.

OPINION 5 For Trump, it’s self-image over people THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 28, 2017

The president ought to consider the people of Puerto Rico.

RICK PIÑON

Asst. Opinion Editor

When President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he will visit Puerto Rico, it sounded more like an excuse to look good for the camera than an attempt to help the U.S. territory. During his announcement to provide disaster relief for Puerto Rico, Trump sounded very unenthusiastic, lacking empathy and emotion while promising a vaguely defined action. If President Trump does not want to go and provide support, he needs to instead take lead by lending actual aid rather than being disingenuous. Unfortunately, the president is not focusing on real issues like providing hurricane relief for Puerto Rico. While Trump should be thinking of ways to arrange aid for a battered county, he is too busy mindlessly tweeting about the NFL. The controversy surrounding the NFL is by no means more important than the disaster in Puerto Rico. Prioritizing a tweet opening his stance on an entertainment network over a natural crisis is not the job of the president. Trump can still save what remains of his reputation by leading the charge of the relief programs. By sending more services and resources to give

to the Puerto Rican people, Trump can prevent his own personal disaster. After Hurricane Maria first hit last Wednesday, it took Trump almost a week to respond with plans to visit the country. If Trump’s plan to visit Puerto Rico as a PR stunt is true, it is truly selfish and would reveal his true characteristic. If this is true, he probably felt the need to publicize his support after not responding right away, possibly leading to the insincere promise to visit the disaster.

Trump could have used the impact of these numbers to open the eyes of those on Twitter to show that he actually cares, but he used his time to call out the NFL and demand that they change their policies on standing for the national anthem. The president needs to work and bring Congress together to see what else the U.S can do to help Puerto Rico. Trump’s true characteristics and intentions were apparent when he announced his visit. Yes, he will head to Puerto Rico, but he needs to do so intending to provide help, not boost his public image.

6 SPORTS Conference: Titans begin Big West play

THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 28, 2017

The Titans’ first defeat was against the University of Clemson Tigers, who ranked sixth in the United Soccer Coaches poll and shut out the Titans 2-0. The Tigers took the top spot in the NCAA RPI ranking in 2016 and finished with a record of 14-4-5. Despite the Titans holding the Tigers to two points, they were not as successful against the University of Portland Pilots, as they suffered a 5-0 shutout loss. The Pilots are also among the best teams in their conference, ranking number four in the West Coast Conference. CSUF’s final loss was also the one to give it its first losing streak in the season. Their match against the Utah Valley University Wolverines left the Titans scoreless once again, as the Wolverines shut out Fullerton 2-0. Despite the rough patches that CSUF has faced in its nonconference schedule, Juarez said that facing these difficult teams early in the season might be the Titans’ ticket to the top spot in conference. “I think the coaches did a very good job picking our schedule. We didn’t have an

easy schedule,” Juarez said. “We played some of the top teams in the country, so I’m pretty sure that helped us a lot.” The Titans plan to look beyond their losses and take conference play into their

Volleyball aims to break losing streak CSUF will have a chance to improve their record against Hawaii. KATHRYNE PADILLA Sports Editor

Cal State Fullerton volleyball will attempt to record its first win of the season against the University of Hawaii Rainbow Wahines. The 2017 season has been a rough one for the Titans, who are winless in conference play. Their match against Hawaii, who holds a strong grip on a sixgame winning streak, may give CSUF the fuel it is looking for. Fullerton has an overall record of 4-11 and 0-3 in the conference. Cal Poly, who took a 3-0 sweep over CSUF, is in the top spot in the Big West. Hawaii follows in a three-way tie for second and carries an overall 8-5 record. Ranking fourth in digs at 220 and fifth in service aces with 0.33 average, libero Savahna Costello, also a Big West honoree, is the only Titan placing in

the top five across the Big West leaderboards. Fellow Titans fall just a few ranks behind the top five positions as Madeline Schneider ranks seventh in the Big West with 168 kills and Shimen Fayad trails in the 21st spot with 104. Fullerton setter Nastassja Bowman holds the seventh spot in conference with 393 assists, but still holds the leading position on the CSUF team. The Rainbow Wahine rank first in blocks per set and service aces, with players in the top five in all stat categories except for digs. In the 2016 season, the Titans were shut down 3-0 by the Rainbow Wahine by roughly 10 points in each set. Fullerton’s outside hitters Schneider and Fayad led the team in kills (11-9) and points (11.5-11). Hawaii not only dominated Fullerton last season, but took the Big West title that same year with a 15-1 record, its only loss being to Long Beach State. The Titans are set to face the Rainbow Wahine for the fourth match of conference play Friday at 7 p.m. in Titan Gym.

8 SPORTS Titans begin conference play against CSUN

THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 28, 2017

CSUF will attempt to keep its shutout streak against the Matadors. MARIANA VERA Asst. Sports Editor

Cal State Fullerton women’s soccer will head into conference play with a 7-22 record, that has launched them into first place in the Big West. Titans goalkeeper Morgan Bertsch — the reigning Big West Defensive Player of the Week — said the team’s strategy for success has been simple. “(We’re) making every game that we have the most important game,” Bertsch said. Last season, Fullerton finished nonconference play with a 3-7 record. All of their losses were shutouts, but the Titans have been able to improve their scoring ability this time around. This season, CSUF’s roster has several names with spots on the Big West leaderboard. Three of the topfive scorers in the Big West are Titans. Midfielder Samantha Koemans, forward Atlanta Primus and forward Sarah Fajnor are tied in second place with five goals each, right behind UC Santa Barbara’s Amanda Ball with eight. Koemans is also in a three-way tie for third-most assists (3) in the Big West and is in fifth place for most shots taken (29). Morgan Bertsch is in a three-way tie for third place for fewest goals scored against in the Big West with nine. Titans defender Kaycee Hoover was also named Big West Offensive Player of the Week after scoring two game-winning goals in

matches against Iowa State and Utah Valley. In the match against San Diego Friday, Fajnor scored two goals – the first of the game and the game-winner. Bertsch saved San Diego’s only shot on goal of the match. In the last game of nonconference play, Fajnor assisted Koemans in scoring the Titans’ second goal of the match and finished with a total of three shots, two of

which were shots on goal. On the other hand, Bertsch saved all five shots fired her way, allowing the Titans to finish with a shutout. Those individual stars have allowed CSUF to shine as a unit. The Titans rank first in the Big West in goals (24), assists (18) and points (66) despite only ranking third in shots per game (13.4). The Titans have been staunch on defense as well, tying with UC Irvine to

allow the fewest goals (9) of any Big West team in nonconference play. “I think we had a really successful nonconference,” Bertsch said. “In the games that we didn’t win, our two draws and two losses, it was very much things that we can solve so looking forward, we just keep building, keep building and just fix all the little things.” The Titans are set to face Cal State Northridge (4-3-4)

for the first match of conference play Sunday at 5 p.m. In 2016 conference play, Fullerton fell to CSUN 1-0. The most recent loss CSUN suffered was a 2-0 shutout delivered by San Diego, a team Fullerton dominated 3-0 Friday. As CSUF enters its first conference game of the season, Fajnor will do so for the last time as a Titan and she’s determined to leave her

mark on the field with the help of her team. “I don’t get a next year, so this really is my last ride. I’m really excited to go out there and give it my all for each game and leave my impression for each team,” Fajnor said. “When we play like us, no one can stop us.” Kathryne Padilla and Kaila Cruz contributed to this report.
