Students interested in the future of sustainability shouldn’t miss the second annual Focus the Nation on campus this week from Tuesday to Thursday.
This year’s event will focus on building a sustainable economy while informing both students and faculty about an emerging industry devoted to tackling climate change.
As the week of Nov. 4 wound down, there was only one issue that made me nervous. It wasn’t the economy, it wasn’t science and it wasn’t social rights. I was scared about what may happen to our efforts in the War on Terror.
Obama was elected and, to be honest, I was unresolved about his good-natured approach to everything.
When social sciences sophomore Linda Qiu began her internship last year with online fashion blog Chictopia.com, she never imagined that she would appear in a national American Apparel clothing advertisement. The ad featuring Qiu is a testament to fashion going in a new direction: for the people, by the people.
Women’s basketball Cal Poly (12-7, 4-3) vs. CSUN (5-15, 2-5) The Mustangs are riding their first three-game winning streak this season as they take on the Matadors at 4 p.m. Saturday in the Matadome. Cal Poly faced one of their toughest non-conference games earlier this week when they beat Cal State Bakersfield (13-8) on Tuesday.
More than 100 students attended The Drinking Age Debate, ASI’s latest True Life event.
John McCardnell, left, who thinks the drinking age should be lowered, argued that raising the drinking age to 21 years old has not stopped students from drinking.
James Fell, who thinks the legal drinking age should remain at 21, said the law has saved lives.
A memorial bicycle ride will be held Saturday at Poly Canyon in honor of late Cal Poly freshman Carson Starkey by the Cal Poly Wheelmen Cycling Team.
Starkey passed away last quarter while pledging the fraternity Sigma Alpha Epilson, reportedly from alcohol poisoning.
It’s that time of year: winter quarter. During these months, many college students become ill. Not the cool, “You all’s dance crew is sick” kind of sick, but the sneezing, coughing, no one wants to come near you kind of sick.
Contracting a disease can really put a damper on students’ social lives and, less importantly, their academic careers.
The Orchesis Dance Company, Cal Poly’s oldest concert dance organization, will return to Spanos Theatre this week for their 39th annual winter dance show.
This year’s concert, entitled “Impact,” will combine the company’s unique blend of jazz, hip-hop, ballet, tap, ballroom, lyrical and modern dance styles with new visual techniques that are bound to surprise and intrigue audience members.
Cal Poly men’s basketball head coach Kevin Bromley acknowledged it was nothing short of incredible.
After being left for dead just over a week ago, sitting at 0-5 in the Big West Conference and hitting the road for two more conference games, things were looking grim for the Mustangs.
The University Police Department is holding a new type of training course for students interested in learning more about the role of police officers in throughout the county.
The course goes from March 31 to June 2 with classes held once a week. Applicants will practice live action training in traffic collision investigations, crime scene investigation, and domestic violence issues as well as tour the county jail.
It’s that time of year again, when many people would rather roll over and play dead than go through the hassle of filing taxes. Luckily, help will soon arrive for Cal Poly students and local low-income families in the form of the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program (VITA).
