SEXUAL ASSAULT INVESTIGATIONS Cal Poly is investigating multiple sexual assault allegations involving the same person Gina Randazzo, Erica Hudson & Cara Benson @ CPMustangNews

Cal Poly officials are in the midst of investigations involving multiple sexual assault accusations against the same individual, according to numerous sources with direct knowledge of the cases. At least seven complaints have been

brought forward to Safer. At least one Title IX investigation will conclude Oct. 6, according to a written document shown to Mustang News. There is at least one other ongoing Title IX investigation. University spokesperson Matt Lazier said because of privacy concerns, the university cannot acknowledge or comment on any specific Title IX investigations. Safer Coordinator Kara Samaniego ad-

dressed Kappa Kappa Gamma (KKG) sorority at a chapter meeting May 14, telling the chapter that Safer had received multiple complaints about a repeat sexual assailant. Mustang News reporters talked to eight individuals present at the meeting. The individuals asked for anonymity, saying they were concerned that speaking publicly could damage either open investigations or their relationship with their sorority.

Free feminine hygiene products now available in UU and Recreation Center Caroline Ster @ CPMustangNews

Feminine hygiene products are free in the Julian A. McPhee University Union (UU) and the Recreation Center bathrooms starting 12 p.m. Sept. 29. This will be funded through the Associated Students, Inc. (ASI) University Union budget. Last May, the ASI Board of Directors approved a resolution to provide free feminine hygiene products campuswide. The purpose

of this resolution was to support low-income students by providing a basic necessity and support overall student success. ASI President Riley Nilsen said this is something that the University Union Advisory Board (UUAB) has been working on all summer. “I think it’s a really positive change and I’m excited to see how it rolls out,” agricultural science senior Nilsen said. Approximately 75 percent of participants in a student survey answered that they had to leave

an academic activity due to menstruation. ASI’s resolution is aimed at lowering that statistic. “I think it’s really important because I’ve heard stories of students going home from class because they didn’t have these products on them,” UUAB Chair and biomedical engineering senior Kaelan Sobouti said. “I think that by providing feminine hygiene products we are promoting academic success and overall success.” The UUAB will revisit the project annually to track its success.

On Sept. 17, Week of Welcome (WOW) Club Showcase was held on Cal Poly’s campus and while all clubs are welcome, the event is very important to smaller clubs who want to grow in numbers. The 2017 WOW Club Showcase involved over 300 different student-run organizations trying to recruit a crowd of mostly freshman. While many fraternities and social clubs are out recruiting new freshman, newer clubs are just trying to get started. One of these new clubs, Cal Poly’s Ad Club, focuses on creating advertisements. The club was founded in February 2017. Despite there being other marketing clubs on campus, founding member Katie Hardisty wanted something more. “We thought there wasn’t really any clubs like it on campus. There were other marketing clubs but we wanted to do more advertising,” Hardisty said. Before the showcase, Ad Club had around 10 members, which was only two people above the requirement to be recognized by

the school. However, at Club Showcase — where they gave out pens and information about the competitions they hope to attend — they received over 100 signatures of people interested in joining the club. Hardisty believes that one of the main selling points that will draw in new members is that they are keeping a lot of leadership positions open, which they tried to emphasize at the showcase. While other clubs already have vice presidents or treasurer positions filled, Ad Club hopes that new members will want to fill those positions and help get the club off the ground. Another club that participated in the showcase was SLO Breakers, a club that centers around breakdancing. Before Club Showcase they focused on recruiting via word of mouth, asking around their circles of friends and trying to recruit members of other organizations they took part in. The club was started by several members of different dance clubs around campus who hoped to create a break dancing community at Cal Poly. “For a while I was the only break dancer at Cal Poly for like two and a half years,” SLO Breakers president John Duch said. “And so

BREAK IT DOWN

Duch, an art and design senior, believes their first meeting had a successful turnout, with over 30 people attending. At first, Duch and other experienced members had concerns about too many people turning out and not being able to control the crowd. However, the meeting was productive and under control. “If I could give some advice for any smaller club that’s just starting out—because I know a few—go to any event that gives you an opportunity to booth,” Duch said. “It gives you an opportunity to sell food, to perform, because that’s just going to get your promotion out there. And if you’re not there, then people just aren’t going to know about you.”

ASI President Riley Nilsen charges into fall quarter Sydney Harder @ CPMustangNews

From greeting each SLO Days group to flipping pancakes for WOWies during Week of Welcome, Associated Students Inc. (ASI) president Riley Nilsen has kicked off her presidency for the 2017-2018 school year. Wowing the WOWies Though the conversation was “nonstop,” agricultural science senior Nilsen said she enjoyed talking with new Mustangs about student life and emphasizing her open communication platform. “[SLO Days] was really fun and really exciting,” Nilsen said. “[The freshmen] had all the nerves and excitement and emotions.” As part of her welcome, Nilsen talked to the incoming students about tips for success as they start their academic endeavors at Cal Poly. According to Nilsen, ASI also registered approximately 200 WOWies for voting. Pushing for stronger student voter education is an item on Nilsen’s agenda, considering that next year will be an election year in San Luis Obispo County.

The remaining eight weeks of fall quarter will bring many events Nilsen has planned with her cabinet, the first of which is entirely new. Celebrating diversity on campus On Monday, Oct. 9, student government will be supporting Indigenous People’s Day in place of Columbus Day. “We will be respecting [indigenous groups] for being here first, acknowledging them and celebrating with them,” Nilsen said. Diversity roundtables will continue to be hosted on the third Thursday of each month. Nilsen hopes that the discussions will spur positive change because “this is the year it will happen.” Buck the Stigma will return, more powerful than before The following week brings “Buck the Stigma” back to campus, which is centered around mental health awareness. Nilsen notes that this year’s “Buck the Stigma” will take on a much more serious and reflective tone. Rather than interacting with students through the use of mechanical bulls, ball

pits and booths arranged in the University Union (UU) plaza, the information regarding mental health will be conveyed to students via visual displays around Dexter Lawn and other locations on campus throughout the week. “It is definitely more self-involved, and self-initiated rather than [student government] forcing information down people’s throats,” Nilsen said. An open mic night will be held on Wednesday evening in the UU Plaza, where students will be invited to share their experiences with mental health “through poems, song, or dance”, Nilsen said. “Buck the Stigma” will culminate on Thursday, Oct. 19 with a memorial recognizing the 17 Cal Poly students that have committed suicide over the past 25 years. 17 backpacks will be arranged in the shape of a semi-colon — a manifestation of the suicide prevention message, “your story isn’t over”— and an explanation of the significance of the number “17” will accompany this visual display. “A semi-colon marks a pause in a sentence,” Nilsen said. “[This symbol] teaches people that your story isn’t over yet, just like

the sentence isn’t over.” Maintaining transparency and trust Nilsen has been working to build relationships among the student body since the beginning of her presidency, maximizing engagement with students both in-person and across social media. Snapchat stands as a popular platform for connecting with students; Nilsen has over 3,000 followers, and often gathers student feedback via her Snapchat story. This information is then relayed to fellow cabinet members and Cal Poly administrators. One of Nilsen’s primary goals this year is to inform students that they hold great power in determining the future of Cal Poly, and to teach them how to wield this influence. “Students feel their voices aren’t heard or acknowledged, but there are so many avenues for them to use and capitalize on that,” Nilsen said. From attending ASI Board of Directors meetings to connecting with the appropriate resources, there are many opportunities for students to pioneer change. “This year, I’m here for the students. I’m not here for my agenda,” Nilsen said.

WOW Club Showcase gives smaller clubs a chance to shine

I’ve been sitting on this interest and passion, so I just waited for more people with this interest and then we came together.” One of the concerns that the members of SLO Breakers had was that students may gravitate towards larger clubs that do hiphop dancing. However, they believe that hip-hop is a wide enough umbrella with many unique styles and that SLO Breakers, which focuses solely on breakdancing, will be individualised enough to attract members. At Club Showcase the few members of SLO Breakers performed over cardboard boxes to draw in crowds. They ran out of the 60 flyers they had printed, having to ask those interested in the club to take a photo of the one remaining flyer.

SEXUAL ASSAULT continued from page 1

Samaniego discouraged those present at the meeting from naming the alleged assailant, saying that doing so could interfere with investigations. Instead, she said they should speak to professionals on campus, such as University Police Department (UPD), the Office of Equal Opportunity and Safer. Safer is Cal Poly’s on-campus, confidential sexual violence resource center. It provides students with tools for addressing sexual assault, sexual misconduct, dating violence and stalking through education, advocacy and support. In the interview, Samaniego said her office had received “troubling patterns” regarding an individual. “When you have a number like this, it’s troubling to me as a person,” Samaniego said.

Gamma Phi Beta, Alpha Gamma Delta and Alpha Epsilon Phi said Safer did not address their chapters spring quarter regarding a repeat sexual assailant. Alpha Phi, Sigma Kappa, Alpha Chi Omega, Kappa Alpha Theta and Alpha Omicron Pi declined to comment. UPD Deputy Chief Brenda Trobaugh said UPD is not aware of any individual that poses a threat to campus. She declined to comment on any ongoing investigations. San Luis Obispo Police Department Sgt. Chad Pfarr said he knew of “a couple” different sexual assault cases involving Cal Poly students. Pfarr declined to comment on any specific investigations. Title IX Title IX investigations are different from criminal investigations. For example, they can’t result in criminal convictions and do not require the same procedural protections and

legal standards. According to the U.S. Department of Education, “a school has a duty under Title IX to resolve complaints promptly and equitably and to provide a safe and nondiscriminatory environment for all students, free from sexual harassment and sexual violence.” The CSU’s Title IX investigation process can take up to 120 days to complete. If the alleged conduct is found to have occurred, sanctions can be placed on the perpetrator. These sanctions that are directly related to the complainant “include, but are not limited to, requiring that the perpetrator stay away from the complainant until both parties graduate, prohibiting the perpetrator from attending school for a period of time, or transferring the perpetrator to another residence hall, other classes, or another school.” On Sept. 22, U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights (OCR) rescind-

ed guidance on how schools should handle sexual assault under Title IX federal law. The revoked guidance includes two documents: the “Dear Colleagues Letter” issued in 2011 and “Questions and Answers on Title IX and Sexual Violence” issued in 2014. California State University (CSU) Chancellor Timothy White said the CSU’s existing policies comply with federal and state laws and regulations and will remain in full effect. As of Jan. 25, 2017, there were 225 postsecondary institutions under investigation by the OCR for issues relating to Title IX campus sexual violence, including Cal Poly. There are 306 sexual violence cases under investigation, according to a list compiled by the OCR for the U.S. Department of Education. Cal Poly has one case under investigation that began in December 2015 and the case is currently ongoing, according to university spokesperson Matt Lazier.

A push away from parking

RAISED | Parking meter prices increased for the first time in 12 years, at $2 per hour. Sydney Brandt @ syd_brandtt

Parking can be a struggle for Cal Poly studetns, but for Cal Poly University Police Department (UPD) Associate Director Marlene Cramer, it’s an opportunity for students to explore alternate forms of transportation. With more than 7,000 parking spaces on campus, it’s difficult to make decisions for the greater good of all individuals coming to campus, Cramer said. “Our focus is to invest in alternative transportation, to encourage people to not bring their cars to campus, but it’s going to take some time,” Cramer said. Parking permit availability was a big issue at the beginning of this quarter. When annual and fall quarter parking permits sold out Sept. 13, students struggled to find places to park their cars. Transportation and Parking Services observed this issue, as well as commuter parking patterns and decided to sell more Orange Lot permits Sept. 27 until Sept. 29 for $138. The Orange Lots include lots H12, H14 and H16. To help solve the problem, freshmen no longer have the option to bring their cars to campus. In the past, less than 15 percent of freshman

residents brought cars to campus, according to Transportation and Parking Services. During the 2016-2017 school year, about 500 freshmen parked on campus. The university made the decision to allocate for increased general commuter parking. Students living off campus do not have many options to get to campus, and driving can be both convenient and reasonable. Cramer explained that some students do not have another option. “We do have a lot of students who live out of the San Luis Obispo area, as far as Gilroy,” Cramer said. “I would hope that students who do live nearby campus don’t bring their cars to campus and would use alternative forms of transportation.” This year, parking meter prices have also increased for the first time in 12 years. In 2005, they increased from $1 to $1.50 per hour. Now the rate is $2 per hour which is the same as the hourly rate at the pay stations. “The reason that we have metered parking is to encourage short term use. With the demand on the meters, we felt it necessary to increase the rate to keep up with demand. Parking is a self-support entity,” Cramer said. As Cal Poly strives to remain a sustainable, environmentally-friendly campus, the university

encourages students to find alternative modes of transportation to commute. Students who live in the general vicinity of campus — 10-20 minutes walking — can get to campus by walking, biking or even busing. Cal Poly’s campus will be continuously developing and updating in the next 20 years with President Jeffrey Armstrong’s Master Plan. With the plan in place, many areas of campus will be redesigned and reconfigured, ultimately changing the layout of buildings, parking structures, etc. Associated Students, Inc. (ASI) President Riley Nilsen expressed her concern with parking on campus, especially with limited space and funds to expand parking facilities. “My biggest concern is the more demand that we’re creating for parking passes, we’re gonna need to have that infrastructure to support more parking spots, which ultimately, right now in the Master Plan, is projected to be our agricultural land,” agricultural science senior Nilsen said. “I’ve heard that from a lot of constituents in my college that they don’t want to give up that ag land.” Students should take advantage of alternative modes of transportation, Nilsen said. “I’m very passionate about reducing the need of parking passes in general, just because San Luis Obispo is such a a small town and it is fairly easy to walk or bike to campus,” Nilsen said. Alternative Forms of Transportation This summer, ASI created an alternative transportation survey to gauge the Cal Poly community’s knowledge of the availability of other forms of transportation available to students. The questions were prompted to induce some sense of ownership about the options for alternative modes of transportation and in essence induce some guilt, according to Nilsen. Zipcar has been an option on campus for the past five years and is trying to expand, according to Cramer, however, only about 18 percent

of students are aware of the service. “You can make a trip out of the area, if you’re under 25, you can actually rent a car,” Cramer said. Biking options are very present at Cal Poly and in the San Luis Obispo area. The bikeshare program is coming to campus to help students get to downtown San Luis Obispo. The bike storage on campus recently increased. Last year, ASI Board of Directors allocated funding for more bike racks and fronted $24,000. UPD partnered with them and matched those funds in total, providing 800 new spots. Cal Poly is in the process of installing spots in front of Mott Athletics Center, along Mustang Way and in between the Health Center and the Recreation Center. Cramer added that Parking Services has been removing parking spaces to put in bike spaces. “We are really showing that we are committed to reducing our carbon footprint by reducing those parking spaces,” Cramer said. BoltAbout is an electric bike company that costs about $30 a month for students to lease a bike. “You can easily bike now to campus without fear of being late because it’s motorized,” Nilsen said. Another transportation option is electric vehicles. They are encouraged, as they are environmentally friendly and not as harmful to the environment. There are 12 spots dedicated to electric vehicle charging on campus for students who choose to use this option. Amtrak is also encouraged for students to use as transportation for longer routes. Cal Poly students can receive a 15 percent discount through the Amtrak Student Discount Program and can be picked up right on campus. Finally, Cal Poly students are able to ride the SLO Transit bus for free, both to and from campus, and around the town as well.

World renowned pilot Captain Chelsey “Sully” Sullenberger will speak at Cal Poly Nov. 30 to raise funds for the Cal Poly Center for Leadership. “We are honored to have Captain Sullenberger share with the community his compelling story about leadership under pressure. His talk in support of the Cal Poly Center for Leadership will allow us to expand our programming and develop student leaders into the future,” Director of Leadership and Service Jason Mockford said in a press release. Sullenberger will speak about the values that helped him lead a successful emergency landing on the Hudson River in 2009, saving the lives of all 155 passengers and crew aboard his plane. Leadership Under Pressure “I’ve been able to demonstrate to the world in the most dramatic way possible, in a very public way, that all the things that I’ve worked on and become expert at and cared about my entire professional life — leadership, core values, effective culture, human skills to build and lead teams well — really work in the real world, even in the most extreme challenges,” Sullenberger said. Although his values accumulated over years of flight experience, Sullenberger said that leadership and hard work ethic can be applied to everyone. Sullenberger said it is a person’s civic duty to constantly learn and strive to better themselves. By doing so his whole life, Sullenberger unknowingly prepared himself for success under immensely challenging circumstances. Realistic Optimist “If I had to give my [college-aged] self a little bit of advice, I think it would be to always remember to be, what I call, a realistic optimist,” Sullenberger said. According to Sullenberger, a realistic opimist is someone who is confident in their ability because they have worked hard to gain that confidence and are sure of their capabilities. “Ultimately, you will succeed if you continue to learn and grow and work as hard as you can,” Sullenberger said. Sullenberger said if he had been able to tell himself this advice, he would have looked at the world from a different perspective. “An Evening with Captain ‘Sully’ Sullenberger” Sullenberger’s success led to instantaneous notoriety and labeled him a hero. “I didn’t feel like I was a hero, I felt like I

had done my job, but done it extraordinarily well under very difficult circumstances — done it probably better than might have been expected under those conditions — and that’s true for everyone who participated in saving every life — the rescuers, the crew, the first responders that day,” Sullenberger said.

Sullenberger did not stop there. He has used his notoriety to advocate for the safety of air travelers on Capitol Hill and raise money for programs such as the Center for Leadership.

| New to Smile and Nod, Trotta and Sigmund are preparing to showcase their classic comedy at the “Noob Show” at the end of fall quarter. Pictured right to left: Grace Trotta, Jade Sigmund.

Smile and Nod adds two new members to its team Kayla Berenson @ kayla_berenson

Smile and Nod, Cal Poly’s comedy improvisation team, watched over 70 students audition for new spots on their team Sept. 22 and 23. Despite a sprained ankle and a first-time audition, Jade Sigmund and Grace Trotta made the final cut. Sigmund and Trotta had different experiences in terms of their auditions. Communication studies sophomore Sigmund auditioned three times during her first year at Cal Poly before making the team her fourth time around. Trotta, on the other hand, a communication studies freshman, is one of the few students who gained a spot after just one audition. Sigmund said she participated in drama in high school and joined an improv club. Though she didn’t make the team her first year at Cal Poly, she attended the workshops members offer throughout the year to improve at improvisation. During her audition for Smile and Nod this quarter, she tripped off of the stage and sprained

her ankle, and thought this would prevent her from pantomiming at the callbacks the next day. “I went to callbacks in crutches,” Sigmund said laughing. “I just made do and I think I just showed them I wanted to be there. Like, I was not about to miss callbacks. I guess I had to get injured before I got on the team.” Trotta knew about Smile and Nod through a friend who was on the team before graduating from Cal Poly last quarter. She said she was on a similar comedy improvisation team in high school and managed the team for two years. She was comfortable with improvising and wasn’t very nervous for her audition, even though she knew that most students don’t make it on the team after their first audition. “It feels awesome,” Trotta said. “I’m so glad I auditioned and I’m so blessed that I’m able to do this for all four years, but I definitely don’t take advantage of that. I’m very grateful. Like they said, first years don’t usually get on, so I was at peace with not getting on the team, but then when they called me I was really excited. I cried.”

Tattoos with a feminist flare Emma Kumagawa @ emma_kumagawa

When food science sophomore Fionna Fahey flexes her right bicep, she displays strength in more ways than one. Inked inside of her arm is the image of a woman with roses growing on her bare body where smaller, younger girls are watering them. Initially, Fahey wanted the tattoo for two main reasons: the drawing was by the artist Valfré, who’s known for creating “badass women,” and she simply thought it was cute. It wasn’t until

after getting the tattoo did Fahey realize that it conveyed a deeper meaning. “It’s something like women building and helping women,” Fahey said. Although getting a tattoo resembled a sense of empowerment to Fahey, the symbol of feminism added a stronger, more personal aspect to the art. Fahey’s tattoo was done by a woman artist at The Hideaway Tattoo, female-owned-and-operated tattoo parlor in San Diego. Fahey said that she felt more comfortable getting her tattoo done by a woman and their connection made the experience even more special.

Sigmund said she felt nervous at her first audition, but now that she has experience, it’s more fun than it is nerve-wracking. “I go there for fun and I know if I can’t make it, I always have the workshops and I can hang out with friends I met through it,” Sigmund said. “Improv auditions aren’t like how you audition for a play, where you prepare a monologue and it’s very serious and you go one at a time. It’s like a big fun party, and you all hang out and you all watch each other audition.” Smile and Nod Vice President John Chapman explained the audition and callback process. “The audition process is all about seeing how people perform in front of an audience,” biology senior Chapman said. “At auditions, we play various improv games in order to see how comfortable people are on stage and how good they are forming scenes with their partners. And of course, being funny. At callbacks, we do longer forms of improv to see how people are when they improv with people already on the team.” Chapman also said the team looks for certain qualities in potential new additions to their group. “We hope to find people who can work well with other people, have good energy, are funny, are having fun and creativity,” Chapman said. “We also look for people that can help elevate the quality of our shows. Ultimately, we hope to find people that love improv.” According to Chapman, Sigmund and Trotta had all of the characteristics that the team was looking for and more.

Trotta also said that the team members told her they liked her confidence after the audition, which made her stand out from the rest of the people who auditioned. “Even if you’re not confident, just showing confidence is a really good thing,” Trotta said. The two new members are already excited to start their journey with Smile and Nod. “I already really love the people on it,” Trotta said. “They’re already super supportive and I can already tell that we’re going to be friends. I also really love performing, but I’m most excited for the team community.” While both of them made the team, they won’t perform in front of an audience until the end of the quarter for the groups traditional “Noob Show,” where new members perform for the first time. Sigmund said she’s most excited for the opportunity to perform at the end of the quarter, and looks forward to learning how to put on the best possible show. “We have to put on a really good show since we charge people for it,” Sigmund said. “It has to be a genuine thing they would want to pay for.” Sigmund’s biggest pieces of advice to those who want to audition is to attend the workshops to get better at improvisation techniques and to keep auditioning until they can get in. “Don’t be discouraged if you don’t get in after your first audition,” Sigmund said. “I auditioned four times and I’m glad I took my time with it.”

“Today, women are allowed to define what it means to them to be their own woman,” Fahey said. “Women embrace their own sexuality, femininity or even lack thereof; women are able to turn away from traditional female roles and redefine feminism by empowering each other.” The tattoo culture has changed over the years, evolving with social and political movements. “Twenty years ago, women weren’t really seen in the tattoo industry because it was so male-dominated,” Traditional Tattoo manager Michelle Perlich said. The tattoo industry’s female presence has slowly but surely progressed.

“Now, I’d say that about sixty percent of people getting tattoos today are female,” Perlich said. “In the past, women have been looked down upon, so they need to have thick skin when they come up against guys who think they’re so tough. They have to keep their heads up and stay true to what they know.” English senior Laura Horst got a tattoo depicting a crown on her chest at Traditional Tattoo to honor her inherent right to femininity and her body. “It reminds me that I have power,” Horst said. “Even though I live with the fear that it could be violated. I have a right to these things, by virtue of being born, being human, and being a woman.”

Keeping authentici Local vintage shop brings community and vendors together Tabata Gordillo @ tabatagordillo

If there’s one word that Ruby Rose owner, Stephanie Hendry, lives by, it’s “authentic.” To be authentic means to be genuine in nature. To be authentic means to be true to the core, regardless of any obstacles that may arise. From the apparel on mannequins to paintings on the walls, Ruby Rose is the purest essence of authenticity. The quaint vintage shop, located on Monterey street, displays one-of-a-kind garments, decor and artifacts. Every corner of the shop embodies different places and stories. The Roots of Authenticity Ruby Rose was inspired by the cross-country road trips Hendry and her family took in the sixties. She fondly recalls stopping at gift shops as her favorite part of every trip. Even at a young age, Hendry had an eye for objects that were out of the ordinary. Because of this, she opened her first store about fifteen years ago. “I want everyone who walks through the front door or that leaves to feel like they’ve got to get back to the gift shop,” Hendry said. Following the latest trend does not concern her. Hendry would rather sell items that make her truly happy. Hendry said she falls in love

with something, someone else will too. “If you’re a purist or if you’re looking for something timeless, this may not be your store,” Hendry said. Because of its original aesthetic, Ruby Rose became a fan favorite for local artists who wanted to sell their crafts at the shop. However, because of lack of space at the store, Hendry was not able to provide this service to everyone. “It never felt good to say ‘no’ because all of their products were amazing,” Hendry said. “So, we thought, ‘what could we do to give them a front door?’” Coming Together After showcasing different vendors in the store for some time, Hendry decided to start an event that allowed several vendors to come together and share their products with the community. This event started two and a half years ago, and came to be what is known as The MoJo Flea + Makers Market. According to Hendry, this event has allowed local businesses to take off. A lot of vendors want a booth in the show, so choosing what vendors to showcase can be difficult. Artists must apply online and are chosen based on how well their products fit the market Ruby Rose aims for. There are two flea markets per year and this

year’s second sale took place Sept. 23, where different booths displayed jewelry, clothing, skincare products and more. Leta G. owner Nisan McLeod, shared her western vintage and antique finds at MoJo Flea + Makers Market. Like Hendry, she takes pride in finding items that are recycled. McLeod travels to Arizona and along the California coast to find merchandise in estate sales and antique auctions. “When they first started the MoJo, I went as a customer and I just had to be in it,” McLeod said. “I was lucky enough to get in the show.” Liberal studies senior and owner of Jenna Bee Handmade Jenna Cady also expressed how excited she was to be a part of this season’s event for the first time. “[My favorite part is] just meeting everyone and talking to people,” Cady said. “Everyone in the community is so supportive and the energy is so good here.” The flea market proved its success yet again as vendors, students and families came together to celebrate the old and the new. Like with her store, Hendry emphasized the importance of making events available because they make “authentic” items constantly available to the public. “We need to keep that alive or else we’re always going to look like yesterday,” Hendry said.

During the team’s early meetings, Boyal said his team is looking to get everyone healthy because some members are still recovering from injuries. His personal goal is to be in the top five or 10 in regionals and to finish in the top 40 in nationals, which is all-American status. Hutchins, who came in second place last season in the 5,000 meters at the Big West Track and Field Championships, is returning from an injury and is “looking to surprise himself ” this season. He finished 67th in his season debut in last Friday’s Bill Dellinger Invitational with a time of 24:43:8. Hutchins said he is also excited about his team’s experience and noted that Jake Ritter, a freshman from Citrus Heights, California, is “looking very strong.” From runners one to seven, Hutchins wants his team to “keep their time as close as possible.”

Men’s Cross Country — a deep lineup Both Swarnjit Boyal and Clayton Hutchins, two seniors on the men’s team, both have the same goal for their team this year: go to nationals. Last year in regionals, the Mustangs were four points away from making nationals. According to Boyal, that’s the difference between a few runners finishing a few seconds faster. “It’s not every year that we have the chance to go to nationals. It takes years of development and dedication,” Boyal said. "Sometimes you don’t get it right as a freshman, a sophomore. For us, we have a lot of upperclassmen and we all have the same goals.” Boyal, who was named the Big West Cross Women’s Cross Country- rebuilding Country Athlete of the week after winning yet confident the UC Santa Barbara Lagoon open Sept. 2, is thrilled about his team’s depth. The women’s cross country team “We’re returning our top seven is rebuilding, but that won't that we took to regionals. stop head coach PriscilWe’re pretty much rela Bayley from saying turning a full squad, her team won’t reach plus we had a great their goals.

He said, “I in the NCAA Cross remember coming Country Championin here as a youngster ships last season and PRISCILLA BAYLEY trying to be the best one qualified for the NCAA day.

OFF TO THE RACES | The Mustangs look poised to make another strong run at the Big West Title.

“Sometimes when you have a lot of success, it extends your season. With the team being very young, we felt like it would be good to redshirt Peyton now. We only have four seasons of Peyton. We want to make sure the team is in a position where we can best utilize her when we need her.” Losing Bilo and other runners to graduation created a lot of openings on the team. “Last year was an unprecedented year for the women’s program,” Bayley said. We won the conference championships by one of the largest margins of victory. We were pretty dominant.” The team’s top spot now belongs to Miranda Daschian, a redshirt sophomore transfer from Cuesta College. “Being a local, I already had an idea to what the team was like,” Daschian said. “I never wanted to leave San Luis [Obispo] because I grew up here. With my success at Cuesta I am thankful for this opportunity.” Daschian is looking to improve her times and stay healthy because this is her first time competing at the division one level. Juniors Julia Vasquez and Hannah Hull were on last year’s conference team and are returning this season. Vasquez is the team’s number two runner behind Daschian, and according to Coach Bayley, was discovered by the team when they were out for a run and spotted Vasquez running very fast on the trail as well. Even though Vasquez never ran in high school, she was asked to join the team. “We are very lucky to find a hidden gem on our own campus,” Bayley said. Hull, according to Bayley, has “started to

embrace longer distances” and is “improving her training.” She also managed to stay healthy so far this season. Redshirt junior Maddie McDonald was a walk-on and redshirted her freshman year and also contributed to the track and field team. Sophomore Bryanna Fuller redshirted last season and is traveling with the team for the first time. "The lifeblood of our program is taking successful California runners and making them better,” Bayley said. “Not all of those runners were big-scholarship athletes. Some were recruited because of their potential. They came in, stuck their nose down, and grinded it out, and now they are reaping the benefits of all that hard work.” The Mustangs will have seven new runners as they try to win another Big West title. Looking ahead The Mustangs do not have a light schedule on their way to regionals. In Friday’s Bill Dellinger Cross Country Invitational in Oregon, the Mustangs faced eight teamed ranked in the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association National Top 25. Boyal and Daschian both led their teams; Boyal finished 21st and Daschian 24th. Cal Poly’s next meet will be at the Under Armour Wisconsin Invitational Oct. 13, which according to Boyal, is the biggest Cross Country Invitational besides nationals. The Big West Conference Championship is Oct. 28 in Riverside, California.

Men’s soccer winning streak ends at five Jay Serrano & Kenny Campbell @CPMustangNews

Cal Poly men’s soccer opened conference play this week, splitting their first two matches in Big West play at Alex G. Spanos Stadium. The Mustangs tied their program record with five straight wins after defeating UC Riverside 3-1 Thursday night, but broke the streak Saturday night against CSU Fullerton. Ultimately, they fell 1-0 after the Titans scored on a controversial penalty kick. UC Riverside Cal Poly broke through early against the Highlanders, scoring in the 15th minute. Senior midfielder Tyler Savitsky evaded a UC Riverside defender with a brilliant half turn and then lofted a ball onto the chest of fellow senior forward Kaba Alkebulan, who slotted it into the left-hand corner of the goal. “I looked up and, you know, the run dictates the pass,” Savitsky said. “He was making a great run so I just hit it and hoped for the best and he did a great job in finishing it.” The lead was short-lived for the Mustangs as a miscommunication on defense led to an equalizing goal for the Highlanders in the 34th minute by sophomore forward Anthony Lopez. At halftime, the score was deadlocked at one a piece. “That the only real opportunity we gave up was a mistake by us,” Head Coach Steve Sampson said. The Mustangs came out in the second

half in a 4-4-2 formation with a diamond in the midfield and went out pressing the Highlanders according to Coach Sampson. This led to a lot of chances for the Mustangs as they tallied ten shots in the second half alone. Just as it seemed the game might go to overtime, the pressure applied by the Mustangs finally paid off with a goal in the 80th minute by junior midfielder Jose Rivera. “It caused [UC Riverside] to play under pressure, and I don’t think they could handle the speed of play,” Sampson said. A mere six and a half minutes later, Savitsky scored his first goal as a Mustang to put the game away for Cal Poly. “It was a great feeling,” Savitsky said. CSU Fullerton The Mustangs were in a good position to push their win streak to six games but a controversial penalty kick awarded the Titans a game-winning free kick. The loss stopped the Mustang’s win streak just short of breaking the program record. The game-deciding goal came after the referees whistled Cal Poly for a foul and granted Cal State Fullerton a free kick that managed to escape junior goalkeeper Simon Boehme for the score. “I don’t think it was a penalty,” Coach Sampson said. “I think it was a very soft call. I don’t like to be critical of referees, but I think referees sometimes have poor games just like players. I think that was a mistake. I think the video will show it.” The penalty kick was the only point in the game that Cal State Fullerton managed to put pressure on Cal Poly. The Mustang’s

SERIES SPLIT | The Mustangs opened conference play 1-1 after splitting their road series. defense held the Titans to just three shots on goal, two of which were saved by Boehme. All of the Titans’ shots on goal came within the first 30 minutes of the game. “I think we managed pretty well to keep them at bay,” Boehme said. “We did our job. I thought we were the better team today and it was just unfortunate it didn’t go our way today.” The Mustangs’ offense started slowly, recording only three shots in the first half. “The lines, when they stay organized, are very hard to penetrate,” junior forward Sean Goode said. “I think we did alright going forward, but its just about finishing chances.” Near the 72-minute mark, the Mustangs’ offense came to life, attempting four shots on goal during the next ten minutes. Goode

attempted three shots on goal and Alkebulan attempted one. However, the Titans’ goalie saved three of the shots and Titan defender Sam Moltz managed a last-minute sliding deflection of a shot by Goode. “I think we just upped the pressure,” Goode said. “There’s no fault in effort, there’s no fault in opportunity. I think we just had to finish our chances and not much else.” C a l Poly pl aye rs and c o a che s said this loss won’t define the team going forward. “I think we’ll be just fine,” Boehme said. “It’s one of these we’ve just got to move on from. I thought we were the better team without a doubt. So it’s unlucky, it’s unfortunate, but we’ll be just fine. We’ll move on and we’ll be stronger next time.”

The Cal Poly football team lost their sixth straight game after falling to Idaho State 3834 at Holt Arena in Pocatello, Idaho. This marks the team’s worst start since 2002 when they also started 0-5. The Mustangs took a 14-point lead with three-and-a-half minutes left in the third quarter, but were outscored 21-3 for the remainder of the game. Idaho State (3-2, 1-1 Big Sky) scored touchdowns on three straight drives after the Mustangs took their lead. The Mustangs dominated time of possession, holding the ball for 17 minutes longer than the Bengals. However, they were not able to hold onto the ball when it mattered most. After the Cal Poly lead was cut to three, the Mustangs were forced to punt after three plays. After a quick Idaho State touchdown strike gave the Bengals a lead on their ensuing drive, Cal Poly posted another three-and-out. Idaho State held the ball for the remaining five minutes for the win. Quarterback Khaleel Jenkins was the bright spot once again for the Mustangs,

breaking the school record for rushing yards in a single game by a quarterback with 202 yards on 25 carries. Jenkins found the endzone four times, twice through the air and twice by himself on the ground. The Mustangs saw themselves down by 10 points early, but then forced a fumble and a couple short possessions on defense. Jenkins scored two rushing touchdowns and Cal Poly suddenly found themselves up 17-10. The Mustangs were poised to hold that lead going into the half, but an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty against the Cal Poly defense after a third down stop kept the Bengals’ drive alive. On the next play, Idaho State quarterback Tanner Gueller scrambled for a 30-yard touchdown run. Gueller accounted for 341 yards and three more touchdowns through the air. Each of his touchdowns went for at least 26 yards, one of which was a 70-yard bomb. Cal Poly scored on their first three drives of the second half, two of which lasted more than five-and-a-half minutes. They were held silent while Idaho State’s offense picked apart the Mustangs’ lead. Cal Poly will play at Southern Utah (2-2, 0-1 Big Sky) next Saturday, Oct. 7.
