Paris Hilton, Donald Trump or Michael Jackson? I was embarrassed by Tylor Middlestadt’s “ridiculous” argument in the Mustang Daily regarding this week’s ASI presidential election. Anne Giapapas is much prettier than Paris Hilton and the only thing Todd Maki has in common with Donald Trump is a bad haircut. The Toddler Makistadt’s of ASI are […]
Todd why?
David Bailey a good choice for CP Board of Directors
In my four years at Cal Poly, I have never had a compelling enough reason to write to the Mustang Daily opinion section. However, it looks like I will not be graduating without having written at least one letter since David Bailey is running for the College of Science and Mathematics Board of Directors position. […]
Quality of experience over quantity of experience
After being exposed for my shopping spree agenda I had to think of new legitimate reasons why I am running for ASI president. We’ve lost Mardi Gras, Wildflower might never be the same, Safe Ride is gone and Oracle doesn’t work. If you vote for the same people with the same stale perspective, then you […]
Todd Maki: a qualified leader
With the upcoming elections this week, I believe it is important for students to understand what they will be voting for. When it comes to deciding who will be our next ASI president, we need to choose the person who will be the most qualified to be our leader. When electing a president, we should […]
Vote Todd because …
The cookie cutter response as to why you should vote for Todd Maki for ASI President is experience. My reasoning has to do with the byproducts of experience, knowledge and connections. Todd knows the position, it’s responsibilities, it’s role in the organization and the university, as well as the proper channels to influence change. Todd […]
Coachella: scenes from the cultural oasis
Paul Bittick I was somewhere around Indio, in the apex of the desert, when Tommy Lee kicked in. As I walked through the manicured grass, happily eating corn on the cob, the thin and dust-caked Motley Crue drummer ran up to me, weaving his arms and torso in a spastic model of the Axl Rose […]
ASI president passes the torch
Tyler Middlestadt With the end of my term within sight, it is time for me to prepare to pass the torch. It’s a bittersweet time of reflecting on this year’s success and challenges, looking ahead to next year’s potential and most importantly preparing our next ASI president to tackle the most important issues facing students. […]
Poly Players With Carol Erickson
Kendra Deutsche Carol Erickson has helped pull the Cal Poly women’s tennis team to an 11-9 record overall this season, with a 5-2 Big West record. She has a 19-8 individual record. Erickson, a business junior, consistently helps lead the team to victory. This season, Erickson was acknowledged for her play at the Northwest Regional […]
Gauchos out-duel Cal Poly track
A shorthanded Cal Poly men’s and women’s track and field squad lost dual meets to Central Coast rival UC Santa Barbara on Saturday. However, warm weather and a competitive atmosphere contributed to several top-notch performances. Three Mustang men, including Chris White (shot put), Joe Gatel (1500) and Luke Llamas (1500) qualified for the NCAA Regionals […]
The Immigration Nation
Julianne Byer So I’m sifting through newspapers and editorial clippings arguing about the Immigration Issue. Since when is it an issue? America is not suffering from an immigration problem- America IS Immigration. But our mindset has changed. We as the red, white and blue collectively, have decided that the borders have been permanently drawn and […]
