Cal Poly becomes a

wet campus Connor McCarthy @ conr_mccarthy

With the opening of Mustang Station (formally Ciao), anyone who is 21 and older can now purchase a beer or a glass of wine in a nontraditional restaurant setting. This option is a first in Cal Poly’s history. Changes to the campus alcohol policy have allowed the university to officially be considered a wet campus, which made this kind of establishment possible. The policy change was considered nearly three years ago when public policy graduate student Jason Colombini was Associated Students, Inc (ASI) president. However, the first time he proposed the policy change was when he was on the Board of Directors two years prior. “My sophomore year when I was on the board is when I brought it up for the first time,” Colombini said. “I was thinking ‘this will never change, this is the way it is, it’s always been this way, nothing is going to happen with it.’ There wasn’t enough of a push to do it.” Before the proposal of making Cal Poly a wet campus, students were already talking about having alcohol served on campus as early as 2004, according to Colombi-

ni. That year, former ASI President Blake Bolon received approval for alcohol to be served at Krukow’s Klubhouse during baseball season. Sage Grill, which was located in the former Vista Grande dining hall, began serving wine and alcohol to the Cal Poly donation group, Stampede Club. This created a gray area for students, Colombini said. “Depending on who you talk to,” Colombini said. “It was either Cal Poly is 100 percent dry campus with special exemptions, or we are somewhat of a dry campus, or people said we serve alcohol so we are a wet campus.” To combat this debate during his term, Colombini and his cabinet conducted a survey called “Let Your Voice be Heard,” to see what the general campus climate was about several topics, alcohol being one of them. The survey asked students, “do you support the addition of an alcohol venue on campus?” There was a total of 4,004 responses. From that number, 60.1 percent of respondents said they strongly support or support the idea and 22. 3 percent said they were neutral. With these numbers, Colombini presented an alcohol policy change

proposal to administration. “We met with President Armstrong and Vice President of Administration Finance at the time, Stan Nosek, and we set up a committee,” Colombini said. “It was perfect timing because the ad-

ministration was also reviewing other campus policies. We had a discussion about it; a pretty active discussion about what this new alcohol policy would look like, what it should be and ultimately from that, campus became a wet campus. That is the policy now.” This change of policy has received

positive feedback from the campus community but some students are still unaware of the change. Art and design senior Simone Enderlin was surprised not too many people have been to Mustang Station yet. “I think it’s pretty cool,” Enderlin said. “But so far no one actually knows about it. People were asking me ‘Has it opened yet?’ There just needs to be more time for the campus to be aware of it.” But the demographics of those going to eat at Mustang Station has already began to change, according to civil engineering junior and Mustang Station employee Jacob Serpa. He had been working for Mustang Station when it was formerly called Ciao. “It brings in a lot of upperclassmen compared to the last couple of years when it has been all freshman with Plu$ Dollars,” Serpa said. “Now it’s about half and half.” Mustang Station is also seeing more faculty come into the restaurant. Statistics professor Andrew Schaffner believes Mustang Station can help promote faculty interaction amongst one another. “I think it’s good for collegiality to be able to just come and talk about work or other things,” Schaffner said. “There is also a

social component of having a beer as well.” Statistics professor Ulric Lund echoed the same feeling as Schaffner, but highlighted the convenience of having alcohol served on campus to create more social situations among faculty. “It is nice,” Lund said. “Usually we have to go off campus and it takes a lot more time for us to get together and have a beer.” Changing Cal Poly from a dry campus to a wet campus was seen as a long process that would take years to pass. The quick opening of Mustang Station was a surprise to Colombini. But he’s happy he is able to see something he helped create go into action while still studying here at the university. “It’s an amazing feeling,” Colombini said. “Especially since I can be a graduate student here and get to experience having this here. I thought it wasn’t going to be here until at least 2022, not 2016.” Colombini also wanted to stress that this change in policy was not just him. It was a team effort from within ASI, administration and the student body. “I don’t say, ‘I did this,’” Colombini said. “We did this. We were able to make this happen; something that all students will be able to enjoy.”

“Weird Al”

returns

to celebrate 100 years of student media Naba Ahmed @ nabaahmed

The Cal Poly journalism department is honoring alumni at its 100th anniversary celebration of student press. One of these alumni is Alfred “Weird Al” Yankovic. Yankovic will be at the celebration’s Spotlight Gala on Oct. 15 at the Embassy Suites Hotel in San Luis Obispo, where he will be inducted into the inaugural Mustang Media Hall of Fame. The Mustang Media Hall of Fame was created by the journalism department to honor Cal Poly students and faculty who have made major contributions to student press. “We wanted a way to recognize some of our really accomplished graduates and other people who have played a vital role as mentors,” journalism department chair Mary Glick said. “All of them in their own way are superstars and we are thrilled to be honoring them.” When the department started planning the Mustang Media Hall of Fame about a year ago, they knew they wanted to honor Yankovic.

“We asked a friend to let him know that we were hoping he would come and let him know that we think of him as an important figure in the history of our radio station,” Glick said. Yankovic’s journey to becoming “Weird Al” started in the strangest of places — a men’s bathroom at Cal Poly. As a DJ for KCPR, a song that was frequently played in 1979 was “My Sharona” by The Knack. Knowing that bathrooms have great acoustics, Yankovic decided to try his hand at singing and paired it with his sense of humor, creating the parody song “My Bologna.” When The Knack played a concert on campus, Yankovic met the Vice President of Capitol Records Rupert Perry, where he snagged a record deal before graduating in 1980. “I think it’s rather weird that he was on KCPR,” psychology senior and KCPR DJ Justine Nader said. “And I hope he comes to visit the station because I have a lot of questions about his satire.” Other honorees in the Mustang Media Hall of Fame include alumni Bruce McPher-

son, George Ramos and Robert E. Kennedy. Yankovic and McPherson will be honored in person at the event while Ramos and Kennedy will be honored posthumously. After graduation, McPherson worked on his family’s newspaper, the Santa Cruz Sentinel. After 26 years of reporting and editing, McPherson served four terms with the California State Senate before becoming California’s Secretary of State. Now McPherson is running for reelection as Santa Cruz County’s 5th District Supervisor. George Ramos — former editor-in-chief of El Mustang — fought in the Vietnam War before he furthered his journalism career as a Los Angeles Times reporter, becoming a Cal Poly journalism professor, newspaper adviser and department chair after that. Ramos was also a Pulitzer price recipient. Robert E. Kennedy, Cal Poly President from 1967 to 1979, began as a journalism professor and adviser for the student newspaper and helped create the journalism department.

The making of the leading man

MATT L AL ANNE | MUSTANG NE WS TAKING THE STAGE

| “Cosi,” which will premiere on Thursday, Nov. 10, follows Lewis — a college graduate—who is granted the task of directing a play where the actors are patients in a mental hospital.

Sabrina Thompson @ sabrinaswriting

It’s an actor’s responsibility to bring the words of a script to life. With guidance from their directors, actors can create personas that move and enchant audiences. For many shows, the lead actor is a crucial part in completing this task. “Cosi’s” leading man is math and theater sophomore Garrett Lamoureux, who plays the character of Lewis. Lewis is a college graduate granted the task of directing a play where his actors are patients in a mental hospital. Mustang News sat down with Lamoureux to talk about his passion for performing and the journey of becoming Lewis. MN: When did you start acting? GL: I started my sophomore year of high school, Rancho Buena Vista High School. We had three productions a year and I auditioned for the musical, which was “The Wedding Singer,” and got a role in the chorus. MN: How is performing at Cal Poly different from performing in high school? GL: I think the professionalism is greater here. In high school there are a lot of people who (act) because they have to; but in terms of doing it in college, everyone loves the craft. Everyone is so enthusiastic. It is like a family; everyone cares for each other.

MN: What made you want to continue acting? GL: Mostly the process. I’m a really big fan of the process. Starting with nothing, starting with the script and building from auditions, to callbacks, getting a cast, blocking. I like the interacting with people, the cast, tech and the directors. I like the starting with nothing, putting on a show, deconstructing it, and then putting it back together, picking a new one. MN: What is it like balancing two majors with the theatre work? GL: It’s a lot of work. But it doesn’t seem like it, especially because I like both of them. I’m busy, but I like to keep busy. It is difficult but manageable. In the production side there is some crossover between the majors. When they have to make sets and you have to conceptualize what is going to work with the space that we have, and with finances there is a lot of that crossover between the two majors. (Along) with “Cosi” rehearsals, I am in 20 units. The rehearsals do take up a lot of time. I had to switch my schedule around going from class to homework to “Cosi.” My schedule is radically different and something you have to adjust to, but it is definitely worth it. MN: What has your process been like for “Cosi” thus far? GL: The process so far has been

incredibly enjoyable. We have done a read-through of the show and blocking. With Al and the way he does blocking, we are starting to see these characters’ movements and how they interact. It is so fun to see it come to life. My process has been trying to find spatial relationships with other characters. It has been taking Al’s blocking and thinking about character choices and why my character would be in a certain place or talk to a certain person. It’s been really making me think of my character on a physical level.

Where do you find normalcy in this crazy environment? GARRETT LAMOUREUX ON “COSI”

MN: What has been the most difficult part of the process? GL: Definitely the play within a play. That can be very difficult. You have an audience watching actors be an audience to a different stage. The struggle comes in how you block that. How do you choose moments where an actor has their back to the audience? How do you incorporate that and

make it fluid? Al is really good at that, keeping it fluid. For me it’s a struggle of being an actor, being an actor. I am onstage as a character who then has to play another character. One minute I am in this opera and then I have to come out of this character and go seamlessly into Lewis’ character. It’s difficult to grasp it and differentiate your movements with the play within a play. MN: How do you relate to your character? GL: I think that I am very similar to Lewis in that Lewis is very calm-headed. He really is into his craft. I think that I connect with him in that way. He is trying to be a teacher. I think that the way I am different from him in some of the instances when he is on the edge of throwing in the towel. I think that I really try to work things out to the end. MN: Who is your favorite character in the show? GL: I love Roy. I love watching Daniel’s (sociology junior Daniel Cook) portrayal of Roy. He’s just such a fun character to watch. I think that him and Lewis are so contrasting in an artistic sense. Lewis is more about the production of the show within the show. Roy is very much the art and the craft. It’s everything he ever wanted and everything he ever dreamed. He’s this huge dreamer.

MATT L AL ANNE | MUSTANG NE WS LEAD ROLE

| Garrett Lamourex, left, will take the stage as Lewis.

MN: What effect will this show have on your journey as an actor? GL: This show works on a different level than the rest of the shows. I’ve never been in a show that has dealt with crazy people, asylum patients. It’s this whole idea of normalcy versus insanity. How you try to work with the patients and the char-

acters that are more grounded. Where do you find normalcy in this crazy environment? “Cosi” will premiere Thursday, Nov. 10. Lamoureux and his fellow cast members will bring to life the original script by Louis Nowra and elements of Mozart’s “Cosi Fan Tutte,” the play the mental patients scramble to put on.

The evolution of the tattoo and how our culture recreated them

Carly Quinn @ carlyquinnMN

Not every tattoo has to have a deeper meaning behind it. However, the origins of tattooing can be traced back to ancient cultures, where the process had a tad more significance than today. Going back to its roots, tattoos were given across the globe. These civilizations marked their bodies for reasons other than the aesthetic. Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, made it his mission to burn all the books in China to prevent the passing of knowledge. Anyone found with a book, generally intellectuals and scholars trying to preserve thought and history, was given a tattoo on their foreheads. “A tattoo was almost like a sex offender list you can check out online,” Cal Poly history lecturer Jason Linn said. “It’s a public remembrance of crime.” Similarly, the Romans branded their slaves, especially those who tried to run away from their master. However, in the Pacific Ocean, tattoos were being used for a much different purpose. The word “tattoo” originally comes from the Polynesians,

from their native word “tatau” meaning “to write.” Many different islander groups in the Pacific, such as the Samoans and the Maori people of New Zealand, used tattooing as a form of art. They told stories on their bodies or depicted their family lineage. Having tattoos was something to be proud of and both men and women were tattooed during their lifetime. When Europeans visited the islands, they were amazed by these people covered in unnatural markings.

Others will continue to see [tattoos] as something more positive — art. “They take back some of these islanders to France and England, and they are like the talk of the town,” Linn said. Tattoos then became popular with British sailors. The fad soon spread to sailors all over the world as ships traveled and

traditions were shared. Due to the rough nature of some of these seafaring men, tattoos were still stigmatized by the general public. This mindset has continued throughout the past 50 years, but recently people have become more open to covering their naked canvases with colorful depictions of their personalities. “People see marks on other people’s bodies as unnatural, and in doing so they look down on them,” tattoo artist of eight years Louis Campopiano said. “And that’s Western culture, for sure; but we’ve moved away from that.” According to Pew Research Center, in 2014, approximately 40 percent of people between the ages of 18 and 29 had at least one tattoo on their body. This number has surely gone up since then, and is projected to rise as the next generation fills this age slot. Though some will always see tattoos as unnatural, others will continue to see it as something more positive— art. “It is very easy to say it is artwork,” Campopiano said. “There are pieces that have a technicality but it also requires an artist’s eye.” MATT L AL ANNE | MUSTANG NE WS INKED

Demand police accountability Elias Atienza @ elias_atienza

When Alfredo Olango was shot and killed by El Cajon police last week, I was stunned. You hear about police shootings almost every week in the media. You grow accustomed to it. But you never know how hard it hits you until it happens in your own hometown. El Cajon is now racked with protests, exemplified by the 200 people who marched through Prescott Promenade Park last week. It’s hard to see something like this plague the streets near where you live. You never expect it to happen until it happens. Some people claim the shooting was a murder. Others say it was justified. “What happened to Alfred Olango shocked the world,” Shane Harris of the Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network said during a protest. “The world is watching San Diego County, and you will not get off this time.” And he’s right. San Diego County and El Cajon are being watched by the world but, more importantly, they’re being watched by Americans across the nation. The entire country is wondering, what will happen? Will the district attorney clear the police they work with? No matter the outcome in El Cajon, everyone must demand police accountability. We must demand that they be as transparent as possible when it comes to tragic cases, especially in officer-related shootings. Police officers cannot be trusted to conduct an internal investigation of themselves. As is too often the case in

police-related shootings, the officer may get sent home on paid administrative leave and return weeks later without another word. We do not trust any other agencies with conducting internal investigations and clearing themselves of wrongdoing. Why should we do so with police? We see a conflict of interest between police departments and district attorneys as well. Assemblyman Kevin McCarty observed how attorneys develop close relations with police and are often reluctant to act on officer-related shootings due to this relationship. President Obama’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing — a team of 11 investigators that was created in 2014 in an attempt to investigate the systemic issue of police-related shootings — determined that the need exists for independent investigators and prosecutors in officer-related shootings. Changes were made in some states. For instance, in Wisconsin whenever the police shoot someone — which has happened 18 times this year — investigations are conducted by an outside agency. While this didn’t necessarily prevent riots from happening, like in the city of Milwaukee after the death of an armed black man, it led to less tension and more trust in the police. Wisconsin was able to change because of the efforts of Michael Bell Sr., whose son died after being shot by a police officer during an arrest. It took him 10 years to get support for an outside agency to investigate police shootings. He ultimately gained the support of five police unions when the bill was passed by a Republican state legislature two years ago, and signed into

Breaking the right-left spectrum law by Governor Scott Walker. So far, according to the Sacramento Bee, only two states followed Wisconsin’s lead. California has a bill in the Assembly, but it has stalled. Why has it stalled? Law enforcement agencies have a tough job; there are only around 1 million police officers but over 310 million people in the United States. We have to realize that police officers’ jobs rely on the public’s trust. Their job becomes increasingly difficult when the public has no trust in them. Thomas Jefferson once said, “When a man assumes a public trust, he should consider himself as public property.” This means that when someone signs up for law enforcement, they are signing away their life in service of the public and we should honor that. But it also means that we must demand that they are held to the highest standards. We cannot lower our expectations for law enforcement. When a civilian shoots someone, they do not get to investigate themselves. They are investigated by the police

department, the district attorney and federal authorities if necessary. If I were to shoot someone, I would not be allowed to clear myself. And there is no reason that police officers should be afforded any special privileges. This does not mean that I am pro-Black Lives Matter. It does not mean that I am anti-law enforcement. It means I recognize that police shootings happen too often and the responses — riots, the burning down of shops, destruction of private property, increased violence and anti-cop rhetoric — are just as unacceptable. It also means that I recognize we need to reform the police training protocols and hold our public servants accountable. Independent investigators and prosecutors are needed to ensure fairness in the process so that shootings and deaths will not continue to occur without significant reform and scrutiny. We owe it to our country to ensure that what happened a few blocks away from my home doesn’t happen near yours.
