Murillo to lead SBCC starting Tuesday

Dr. Kindred Murillo, at right, begins her role as Santa Barbara City College’s interim superintendent/president Tuesday. She has gotten a head start the past week and a half.

By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Santa Barbara City College’s interim superintendent/president Dr. Kindred Murillo starts her year-long contract Tuesday with motivation to help the college through the transition period. “There’s been a few turbulent years at the college. In the lifecycle of the college, I think it is time for Santa Barbara to get through those years,” she told the News-Press. “I think I can help them calm down and really get into the system of governance.” She can see herself staying an additional year or two if the school deems it necessary, but she currently does not intend to apply

for the permanent superintendent/ president position. “I don’t believe I would be the most effective person eight years from now. I would like to help the college move through this time and find someone who can dedicate five to eight years here,” she said. Dr. Murillo has worked in California’s community colleges for over 24 years, and she loves it. She served as the superintendent/ president in two districts, spanning 13 years. But she’s in a stage in life now where she’d rather develop someone else as a leader. “I think my job is training my replacement, and I love doing that. I hope that they’re going to want to grow,” she said. “If I can do that, I

think I will have served the college well.” She has more in mind than filling a spot for a year. The college’s governance has been criticized in recent years as board meetings make headlines. In early 2019, discussions over the Pledge of Allegiance made national news, and community members criticized trustees’ actions when a public commenter used a racial slur. This year, the board met multiple times to consider a COVID-19 vaccination mandate, at odds with the Academic Senate who later gave some trustees a vote of no confidence.

Goleta City Council to hold public hearings Amendment under consideration that would move $190,000 from emergency rental assistance to homeless outreach By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Goleta City Council will meet at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday with a full agenda. A public hearing will seek the community’s opinion on an amendment that would shift $190,000 in federal funds from an emergency rental assistance program to homelessness outreach. The funds are part of the city’s more

than $400,000 Community Development Block Grant, a program created in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The statewide eviction moratorium is set to expire Sept. 30, which may impact the need for the funding. A public hearing will look at the appeal of the Public Works Director approval of a wireless facility encroachment permit. Crown Castle would like to install a wireless antenna atop a streetlight near

Tuscano’s Golden touch wins it for Westmont By JACOB NORLING WESTMONT COLLEGE WRITER

CLAREMONT — On Friday night in Claremont, No. 25 Westmont (1-0) found lightning in a bottle at the proper moment, winning its first match of the season 1-0 in overtime against Claremont-Mudd-Scripps in men’s soccer action. “That was some kind of game,” said Westmont head coach Dave Wolf, now in his 31st season at the helm. “We had numerous chances to win that game earlier, but regardless, to get one in the win column feels good.” In the 14th minute, the Warriors recorded the first shot on goal for either side when Braeden Pryor received a shot on top of the 18, following a quick counter. Howat’s shot was struck with great velocity, but unfortunately for Westmont, right at the hands of Claremont

keeper Kevin Box. In the19th minute, a Westmont foul gave the Stags their first legitimate scoring opportunity of the night, giving Claremont a free kick on the edge of the eighteen on the far side. Fortunately for Westmont, the shot went directly into the head of Donovan Howat, allowing the men to scatter and keep a zero on the scoreboard. The two sides continued to go back-and-forth with promising counter attacks during the first 45, but each time one got near the eighteen, the other’s defense stood tall. The two teams combined for 11 shots, and five on goal during the first half. However, none of the five on target were ever truly threats to sneak past either keeper. “It was nice to get some quality attacks put together,” said Wolf. Please see WESTMONT on A4

Interim leader plans to focus on equity SBCC

Continued from Page A1 “bridge between the college and the board.” Her key to bridging the hired staff and elected officials: listening. As soon as she was selected for the position, she began meeting with trustees and faculty to hear their concerns. She feels welcomed by the Board of Trustees and is optimistic that it will be a successful partnership, and she has a shared commitment with faculty to strive for equity. “The faculty there, they’re good at what they do, and they care about students. One of the things I like is that they’ve been voicing their opinions about equity,” she said. “That’s something I’m really excited to work with them on.”

She hopes to steer the college toward hiring staff that better reflect the diversity of the student population. She says hiring managers should screen people in, not out. She also believes in using workshops to educate staff on microaggressions and other issues that make campus less welcoming. “We have to recognize that higher education institutions are the product of structural racism, and we have to go in and do work in policies and procedures to make sure our policies are equitable,” she said. She thinks the unrestricted $20 million donation from MacKenzie Scott would be best used to bridge equity gaps and spur student success. The staff will be planning what to do with the donation in the next few months. The gift was the largest in the college’s history.

Dr. Murillo worked as the chief business official at three community college districts and helped SBCC through a successful facilities bond program. She is ready to thoughtfully budget through the uncertainty of the pandemic. Community colleges don’t receive funding from the government until “six months after we close our books,” Dr. Murillo said. The school recently received a Title V grant of $3 million to expand its service. Dr. Murillo has a lot of work planned for the next 12 months, her first contract in an interim position. Former superintendent/ president Dr. Utpal K. Goswami resigned July 12 during a special meeting of the Board of Trustees. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

“I think although we did not strike as early as we would have liked, it gave us a lot of hope and optimism not only in the back half, but also in general as we move forward.” In the second half, the Stags came out swinging against the Warriors, controlling the ball in the Westmont half of the field for a dangerous 10-plus minutes. While the ball roamed around Westmont’s box continuously, the best the Stags could get was two shots north of the high post. Westmont’s main-striker, Sam Tuscano, had multiple Stag defenders glued to him during the match. Tuscano had his presence felt for the first time in the 64th minute when a counter allowed him to have an open shot at the top of the eighteen. He received a pass and shifted the ball to his left foot before bending a shot over the hands of Box. However, it was also shot over the high post. Twenty-four more minutes came and went, and while both sides threatened, the game remained tied at zero through regulation. During the first 90 minutes, Westmont had nine shots on goal, compared to Claremont’s two. “If things didn’t go our way, that would have been a tough result to drop,” noted Wolf. “With the chances we had it would have been nice to get on the board earlier, but luckily our defense bought us time.” Three minutes into overtime, the 10th shot on goal proved to be the magic one. In the 93rd minute, Tuscano got hold of a ball 10 yards past midfield, and was the last player to touch the ball all night. Westmont’s best carried the ball past a handful of Stag defenders and once more set up his most dangerous weapon, his left foot, before launching a ball 25 yards out that soared into the upper-left corner of the net. From there, the frenzy began. “He was the best player on

He had a look of determination about him all night long and it was great to see him get one more chance.” Not lost among the celebration was the stellar play by keeper Abraham Arteaga, who tallied two saves and guided his backline to a shutout. “Abraham had himself a very

good game,” expressed Wolf. “He was brave, and he had a couple of timely saves that kept us in the game. Tovi has done a great job bringing him along and developing him, and tonight we needed him to perform. He did just that.” The club returns to action today when the athletes play their first official home match of the season down on Lovik Field against Rocky Mountain. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:15 p.m.

“Monday is going to come real fast,” said Wolf on Friday. “We are going to need the depth of our squad heading into Monday, and we had some good performances off the bench tonight. Expect a lot of those guys to feature on Monday.” Jacob Norling is a Westmont College sports information assistant. email: dmason@newspress.com

Thought for Today

By Horoscope.com Monday, September 6, 2021

With both the moon and Mars in your sector of order and selfimprovement on Monday, you’re ready to get it together, Aries. Maybe you’re becoming a gym rat ready to get those gains. Or perhaps you’re diving into that meticulous project at work.

you might be feeling like keeping to yourself this week, Libra. The new moon in Virgo is joining Mars in your sector of secrets and the unseen. Though Virgo’s aren’t known for their hysterics, all that energy in such a delicate place may have you reaching for the tissues, but don’t fret!

Scorpio

Taurus Your ruling planet, Venus, slips out of your zone of toil to your affection one on Friday, Taurus. Love may be in the air, but it’s far from a fairytale. Venus in Scorpio opposes your sign in addition to being a little on the darker side.

Gemini This week, you’re being made to contemplate what sparks joy in your home, Gemini. You’re no Marie Kondo, but the new moon in Virgo has you wondering whether your personal space is up to par.

Cancer With the new moon and Mars in Virgo—a Mercury-ruled sign— in your area of communication and thought processes, thoughts and new information are racing through your mind at breakneck speeds, Cancer. Got a problem? You’re sure to solve it in record time this week but take care not to get stuck in your head.

Leo This is the time to manifest abundance, Leo. The new moon in Virgo falls into your area of possessions and earnings, so your eyes are on the prize in more ways than one. Think Ariana Grande: “I want it. I got it.”

Virgo Who are you, Virgo? Are you satisfied with who you are or who you present yourself as? With Mars and the new moon in Virgo on Monday, these questions may be swirling around in your mind. Whether or not you’re satisfied with your current self, remember that the concept of “you” is entirely within your power to mold as you see fit.

Libra It’s a little out of character, but

Venus slides into your sign on Friday, Scorpio. Are you ready for the deluge of self-confidence? If not, the love planet’s last few days in airy Libra will give you some calm before the storm. Use this time to take stock of your emotional landscape, but there’s no need to go it alone!

Sagittarius Things may be feeling a little less lighthearted than usual this week, Sagittarius. The new moon and Mars in Virgo are posted up in your career sector. While contemplating your career path and legacy (“What is a legacy?”) is rarely a bad idea, these two planets may have your attitude at work a little on the testier side.

Capricorn Travel may be on your mind, Capricorn. This new moon in Virgo flies into your zone of longdistance travel and education. While an international flight may not be possible at the moment, a good book may satisfy your desire to travel to new worlds (of thought).

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

Here’s how glazing became crazing

on’t let this 16-inch tall orange ceramics vase with black crazing (a form of glazing) fool you. It is not Asian. It is

Hungarian. This is the work of Geza Gorka, born in 1894 in Slovakia. He studied, after choosing ceramics as his life work, in Landkirchen, Germany, with masters Paul Mann and Mas Laeuger, who taught him the chemistry and physics of the potter’s art. And there was a lot to learn: the necessary heat ratio and high firing techniques of art pottery, and the art of cracked glazes, which goes back to the Asian styles developed through thousands of years. There are at least two forms of crazing. One is to form a series of cracks inside of the pottery, called craquelure, and another forces the glaze itself to create the hairline cracks. Both techniques are difficult to learn and to accomplish because many a young potter’s pieces will end up shattered as she/he learns the art of imperfection perfected, the art of crazing! We see, on this vase a series of craquelure that is in fact an applied glaze, and not the typical crazing which is in the ceramic itself. In fact, so beloved were the accidents of a glaze (which became the art of crazing) when it chemically does not bind to the ceramic, Asian potters deliberately tweaked the chemicals used in glazing and heat processes to “crack” a glaze, sometimes forming intricate and treasured spider-web designs that took years to learn. There’s also a tradition in Japanese Wabi-sabi (an aesthetic of impermanence and imperfection) that calls for perfectly beautiful

ceramic objects to be shattered and re- worked with a certain paste to reconstitute. The beauty of the pieces, called Kintsugi, is in the natural stress patterns of the break points emphasized by the paste used to glue the piece back together. The aesthetic that a work of perfect art is not perfect is the basis for the theory of deliberate crazing on a ceramic vessel, which is usually accomplished at a very high heat upon porcelain. But the applied glaze, as we see in this vase, can be made to appear to be deep cracks. It can also be applied with a second glaze, as Gorka has done here, on pottery. Hungary in the early- to mid-20th century was a hotbed of ceramic talent, most notably the Zsolnay Manufactory, beloved by collectors of Art Nouveau pottery, but also a major manufacturer of tiles and decorative ceramics used in architecture. If anyone has visited Budapest, you have seen these features. Zsolnay was the largest company in AustroHungary in 1914, and decorative tiles and mask-from grotesques of Zsolnay ceramics are all over the early 20thcentury buildings of Budapest. The war stopped the production of highmarket decorative art ceramics, and the factory was ordered to create insulators for the war. Previous to that, two special glazes were developed that were kept secret. Artists at the factory took these secrets and expanded upon the chemicals and heat needed to create further experimentation in glazing. Geza Gorka was one of those talented artists who came out of the

experimentation. In 1946-1948 he was head of experimentation for high fired vessels at Zsolnay workshop. Mid-century modern collectors call him one of the founders of modern Hungarian ceramic art, typified by simple lines, bold colors, influenced by German Expressionist paintings and woodcuts, folk styles of Hungary, and the geometric shapes of art deco. For years, he was a seminal member of the Hungarian Design Community, serving since 1930 on the directorial board of the Association of Hungarian Designers. He made hundreds of art pottery pieces, as well as functional ceramic objects for architecture. And he was a beloved teacher of at the Zebegeny Free School in 1970. When he died in 1971, his home became The Gorka Ceramics Museum. I can remember thrift store shopping in the 1990s when I saw a lot of this Hungarian pottery, in the mid-century style, and I thought it was amateurish and too clunky to be anything worth purchasing for the $5 price tag on most of them. The colors were too strong, the forms too simple, and the designs too geometric. How things change, especially in the history of design. For the reasons I did not like the Hungarian “look,” mid-century modern collectors today love those very same design features. What I could have picked up for $5 is now worth $500 or more today, as is G.H.’s vase. Dr. Elizabeth Stewart’s “Ask the Gold Digger” column appears Mondays in the News-Press Life section. Written after her father’s COVID-19 diagnosis, Dr. Stewart’s book “My Darlin’ Quarantine: Intimate Connections Created in Chaos” is a humorous collection of five “what-if” short stories that end in personal triumphs over present-day constrictions.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 0125002110. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. For sales conducted after January 1, 2021: NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 916939-0772, or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 0125002110 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.
