WHAT’S

A sluggish first half was too much for Cal State Fullerton to overcome as they fell to the USC Trojans 76-62 at the Galen Center in Los Angeles Tuesday night.

The Titans got off to a slow start against USC, turning the ball over on their first three offensive possessions, falling behind 6-0 before they could get their first shot off.

The rest of the first half wasn’t much kinder to CSUF, who fell behind 45-25 at the half, allowing USC to shoot 59 percent from the field, compared to their own 37.5 percent mark in the first 20 minutes of play.

Turnovers plagued the Ti-tan offense, who gave away the ball 10 times in the first half, while only forcing five from USC. CSUF ended the night with 17 turnovers on of-fense, leading to 14 points for the Trojans.

CSUF struggled with the size and strength of their Pac-12 Conference opponent, as 7-foot-2-inch Trojans cen-ter Omar Oraby scored 10 first-half points on 3-of-3 shooting from the field.

USC outscored Fullerton

26-10 in the paint during the opening half, while CSUF held a slight advantage with their outside shooting, hit-ting three shots from three-point land compared to the Trojans’ two.

Oraby was able to bully his way through the Titans’ de-fense for 15 points and nine rebounds. He also record-ed six of the Trojans’ seven blocks on the defensive end.

“They obviously knew they had a height advantage, and they definitely exploited it,” said CSUF Head Coach De-drique Taylor. “Having 14 foot of human to defend out there, that’s a lot to deal with.”

The Titans were paced by senior guard Michael Wil-liams, whose eight first-half points kept the CSUF offense af loat early on.

The second half started off similar to the first, as a CSUF turnover led to an easy dunk by USC senior guard Pe’Shon Howard.

However, Fullerton was able to go on a 22-13 run to start the second half, bring-ing them within 11 points of the Trojans. They were never able to fully close the gap, as USC was able to pull away in the final minutes.

Freshman Sheldon Black-well stepped in admirably for injured Titan junior guard Alex Harris, scoring 14 points in his first significant min-utes of the season.

A five-day fast is underway in front of Congressman Ed Royce’s (R-Fullerton) office to draw attention to the cause of immigration reform.

Dozens of demonstrators gathered Monday to voice their cause near Royce’s of-fice. They announced 11 of them would fast until Friday, a representation of the 11 mil-lion undocumented people living in the United States.

Royce once had a voting record that could be seen as largely opposed to immigra-tion reform. He previously voted to erect a fence along the Mexican border and end birthright citizenship.

But in the wake of the Re-publican Party’s push to reach out to Latino voters, Royce has gone from oppos-ing immigration reform to a platform of silence.

For the activists, the issue of immigration reform reach-es beyond just Latinos, allow-ing people from all different creeds and races to come to-gether and stand for some-thing that affects them.

“It’s a problem that is shared across communities,” said Dayne Lee, the lead organizer of the event. “This year it has been cross-racial and almost beyond race. Not only Latinos and Asian-Americans, but businesses, African-Amer-ican groups, clergy groups, Republicans and Democrats.”

The story of immigration

reform is not just of the strug-gle of undocumented individ-uals petitioning for citizen-ship but also a story of family separation and tragedy.

Jessica Bravo is one of the individuals fasting, and she has been personally affected by deportation. Her uncle was deported a few months ago, leaving behind his wife and two children.

“You’re literally tearing apart a family,” Bravo said. “My aunt has to work two jobs to be able to pay (for her chil-dren), her kids are struggling in school because it’s difficult when your mom is not really there for you all the time.”

Once an individual is de-ported, his or her relatives have little hope in seeing them return to the United States.

“They get a three or a 10-year ban, and what happens is they can’t come back and they can’t be petitioned for,” said Polo Morales, a represen-tative of PICO National Net-work. “Their children have to be of age; if they are young children, they have to wait 10 to 15 years and then they can go ahead and petition for the parents to come back.”

Morales also has an un-cle who has been deported, leaving behind a wife and a

3-year-old son.Once deportees are able to

petition for citizenship again, they must file a petition for a green card first and then at-tempt to gain citizenship, a process that could take years.

Deportations are on the rise under President Barack Obama’s administration. Be-fore the end of this year, the number of deported individu-als during Obama’s tenure is expected to reach 2 million, which would be almost as many deportations that have occurred in the United States between 1892 and 1997.

Dean Calvo, the second fi-nalist in the search for the new

vice president for administra-tion and finance/chief finan-cial officer, took a run around Cal State Fullerton Monday evening in preparation for a long Tuesday of meetings with campus administration and students.

He explored Titan Stadium, the Gastronome and residence

halls, surprised by the amount of students scurrying around campus.

Calvo is the second of three finalists to be presented at an open forum this week at Steven G. Mihaylo Hall.

“The level and significance of socialization I saw was really inspiring,” Calvo said.

Calvo said he is impressed by the ambitions and aspira-tions of the university’s strate-gic plan, adding that it is con-sistent with what he knows of Fullerton’s past and present, setting an ambitious agenda.

The vice president for ad-ministration and finance/chief financial officer oversees a

budget of approximately $425 million. The position also re-quires working closely with the Academic Senate, Cabinet members and students, among other responsibilities.

Calvo outlined a three-step plan for his first three months in the position, if he is chosen. He said all of these steps will

impact students and university personnel.

- Listen, so that by listening, it can lead to relationships.

- Personal homework, to find out how the university works.

- Cultivating strong relation-ships with the Cabinet.

Broadway stars will assem-ble Monday in Fullerton for a benefit concert to aid victims of Typhoon Haiyan, which has tragically affected millions in the Philippines.

The concert will be pro-duced by the Rotary Interna-tional District 5320 Charita-ble Foundation, along with the Muckenthaler Cultural Center in Fullerton.

Zoot Velasco, executive di-rector of the center, and his wife, Monette Velasco, both play major roles in planning the event.

During the second national Broadway tour of Miss Saigon, Monette Velasco was able to

meet and network with many from the Broadway world, quickly evolving the event from a small to large scale event.

Zoot Velasco said when Typhoon Haiyan happened, he suggested the idea to his wife to put on a benefit at the Muckenthaler Cultural Center.

After talking with Rae Shirer, district governor for Rotary’s Orange County Dis-trict 5320, Zoot and Monette Velasco decided to make it a district-wide event.

“What started as a small idea quickly grew,” Zoot Velas-co said.

Rotary is an international organization, including clubs in the Philippines.

Through Rotary, men and women volunteers dedicate themselves to serving their community.

Zoot Velasco said when Ro-tary holds an event to raise money for disaster relief, it dif-

fers from other major organi-zations such as the Red Cross or the United Nations when it comes to how the money gets distributed.

“When you give money to them it usually goes to claims to bring aid over,” Zoot Velasco said.

He also explained that most times, governments take in the money, but it gets lost in the process due to officials staff-ing large non-governmental organizations (NGOs).

With Rotary, on the other hand, every donation goes to the relief. The money from the benefit will directly be taken to the Rotary Club in Manila. There, they will distribute it directly to the clubs in the Philippines in the most affect-ed areas.

Zoot Velasco said they have tried contacting some clubs in the affected areas, but have had no luck due to lack of service.

“It was suggested that we do it through the Manila club, because they were not in the affected area,” he said. “They’re the largest club from the largest city in the Philip-pines, and they can distribute it to those clubs without hav-ing to worry about phone ser-vice or internet service. They can actually drive the money over there.”

The event will include Broadway stars of Miss Sai-gon, Wicked and Les Misera-bles. Performers include Kris-tine Remigio, Jon Jon Briones, Monette Velasco, Joyce Bau-tista-Nanshaw and Deedee Magno.

Magno, in particular, is said to be one of the most notable guests. She previously ap-peared on the Mickey Mouse Club, and played Nessarose in Wicked. She also appears on the soundtrack of Disney’s Aladdin: A Musical Spectacu-

lar, and is a member of the pop group The Party.

Other performers include Richard Kinsey (Javert, Les Miserables), Los Angeles Op-

era singer Teresa Brown and many more.

“This event makes me proud to work at a nonprofit,” said Allison Town, director of mar-keting for the Muckenthaler Cultural Center. “We were able to put together an amaz-ing show in a very, very short amount of time for people who are in dire need of help.”

Shirer said it is wonderful to see different community organizations come together. After Zoot Velasco talked to Shirer, they decided it was best to move to a bigger venue to accommodate a larger au-dience.

The event will be held at Plummer Auditorium at Ful-lerton Union High School. Tickets will be $50 per per-son and may be purchased through the Muckenthaler Box Office at TheMuck.org or by calling (866) 411-1212 or (714) 738-6595.

Those who are fasting wish to present these stories to Royce and hope to appeal to his heart.

“I would want to ask the rep-resentatives, ‘What would you, or how would you feel if one of your family members was deported?’” Bravo said. “You would feel that same anger,

pain and destruction in your heart as we do.”

The 39th District, which Royce represents, is 28 percent Asian and 32 percent Latino, making a slight but ever-grow-ing majority.

“We feel that the future of the party, the Republican Par-ty, really depends on how they engage minority populations and voters,” Morales said. “If they continue to avoid the issue of immigration reform, or con-

tinue to deny the existence of a growing demographic of vot-ers, especially the Asian com-munity and the Latino com-munity in this district, then the writing is already on the wall.”

The activists who are fasting are sticking to a strictly liquid diet. They were holding up well as of Tuesday afternoon.

“If there’s nothing done on immigration reform, it’s like it never happened,” Bravo said. “The reason why we’re here is

because our families are strug-gling, our families are suffer-ing, and we’re willing to do this for our families and for the families out there, for there to be justice.”

The topic of immigration reform has seen much activ-ism and advocacy in recent years, and will likely continue to shape public policy debates as immigrant populations con-tinue to grow throughout Cali-fornia and the nation overall.

The United States Supreme Court denied an emergency applica-tion to block a new Tex-as law restricting abor-tion Tuesday, according to the New York Times.

The law requires abortion doctors in the state to have admitting privileges at a hospi-tal within 30 miles of where they perform abortions.

Justice Stephen G. Breyer wrote in his dis-sent that the law may substantially reduce access to safe abortions in Texas.

The law went into ef-fect last month

The U.S. Fifth Cir-cuit of Appeals will hear new arguments about the law in Janu-ary and it can still be appealed to the Su-preme Court.

A man was found dead in a Santa Ana pool hall Tuesday morning after being shot multiple times, according to the Or-ange County Register.

The still-uniden-tified man was pro-nounced dead at the scene. He is believed to be in his 30s, said Santa Ana Police Cpl. Anthony Bertagna.

Bertagna said the man appeared to be an innocent victim. Investigators have not disclosed whether the shooting resulted from an argument or alter-cation.

Authorities have not said whether a weapon was found. No arrests have been reported.

A 74-year-old man was arrested Friday at Cal State Fullerton in response to a report that the man was fon-dling himself inside the Pollak Library, accord-ing to an informational bulletin that University Police released Tues-day.

Officers responded to the report at ap-proximately 12:06 p.m. Friday.

The man was iden-tified in the bulletin as a 6-foot-1-inch, 190-pound white male.

University Police is seeking information related to this incident or similar incidents that may have taken place in the library in-volving this man, de-spite his arrest.

It is also the vice president for administration and finance/chief financial officer’s respon-sibility to deal with communi-cation in the event of a univer-sity crisis.

“The guiding principle for crisis management is get the word out and get it out as quick-ly as possible. That’s really im-portant,” Calvo said.

His remedy prioritizes get-ting the word out as quickly as possible in a sensitive fashion to various constituencies, citing his experience working at Cal State Northridge during the 1994 Northridge earthquake.

“It’s about making the crisis as comfortable for our students, faculty and staff,” he said.

During an open forum, Calvo compared the issue of deferred maintenance at CSUF to the damage done to the CSUN campus after the 1994 earth-quake.

“I just learned that deferred maintenance is deferred $250 million at this university, that’s an interesting number,” he said. “The inf lation adjust-ment value of the recovery of the Northridge earthquake at the Northridge campus was about $580 million—think about that. Replacement of more than half of the class-room buildings, restoration of the two wings of the library,

the administration building–complete rebuild, on and on. Well, 250, think about that. It’s almost half.”

When it came to manage-ment, he said he is a little old fashioned. He would like to have reports done with 60-day goals and controls.

Calvo believes as a super-visor, it is very important to determine what an employee needs in terms of supervision.

If awarded the position, he also wants to be accessible for communication between him and students.

At CSUF, you need to “be prepared to have great conver-sations with student leadership, with students, with colleague that’s just key,” Calvo said.

If chosen, he hopes his direct effect on students is supporting the allocation of funds.

While Calvo does not have a specific division to allocate re-sources to, he said it is impor-tant to be respectful to all.

“Allocation of resources to the things that matter to student interests–that really comes down to supporting all of the diversions of the univer-sity. Student affairs, academic affairs and finding a balance that’s effective,” he said.

Calvo currently serves as the associate vice president for fi-nance and administration/as-sociate treasurer of Claremont Graduate University. There, he has led a task force executing

a new hybrid budget model to support the transformation of academic schools.

He also currently sits on the Western Association of College & University Business Officers Board of Directors.

Calvo is familiar with the CSU. Prior to joining Clare-mont Graduate University, he served at both Cal State Los Angeles and CSUN.

Calvo holds a Master of Busi-ness Administration degree from Loyola Marymount Uni-versity and a B.A. in Music from Sacramento State University.

The third and last finalist will be speaking at an open fo-rum on Wednesday at Steven G. Mihaylo Hall.

Being homeless doesn’t al-ways mean begging for money on the sidewalk, wearing tat-tered rags or sleeping outside on cardboard, anyone can be af-fected by it. It can be a student in class, or a someone who al-ready has a job.

The Hunger Coalition, a part of Cal State Fullerton’s Volun-teer and Service Center, put up a “tent city” exhibit Tuesday in the Quad to bring light to the is-sue of homelessness and hunger that many people face everyday.

“Out of sight, out of mind,” said David Morales, 21, a proj-ect director for the Hunger Co-alition. “So, that’s what we’re trying to do here, we’re trying to bring it into people’s sight.”

The exhibit is part of the Na-tional Homelessness and Hun-

ger Awareness Week meant to bring attention to the issue of homelessness around the Unit-ed States.

Morales believes homeless-ness isn’t a “game changer, it’s not the end of the world,” but it is a cause that needs a voice, he said.

Written in black marker on a piece of cardboard, the tent city exhibit voiced some of the lesser known facts about homeless-ness. Students were able to pass under the makeshift tent and read statistics about the people that so often go unseen.

“Despite everything, I’m still human,” read one of the signs. Fifteen percent of Americans in 2012 were living in poverty, read another sign. The average age of a homeless person is 9, read one more.

“I hope people will know more about what is going on (in) society,” Ngoc Dao, 22, a busi-ness major, said.

Dao is a volunteer with the Volunteer and Service Center on campus, and he wanted to help

out by collecting canned food and clothes for the homeless.

The Hunger Coalition began collecting canned food on Hal-loween when they went trick-or-

treating to collect food. With 40 volunteers, the team collected four barrels full of canned food, Mohammed Khan, 22, an elec-trical engineering major said.

“People should be motivated (by this),” Khan said. “I hope they donate.”

Barrels are set up on campus in McCarthy Hall, University Hall and in the Pollak Library for people to donate nonperish-able food items.

Morales said he hopes that this event will inspire one per-son to start volunteering, or to do one good thing. Still, he knows it can be difficult.

“We have to pay for tuition,” Morales said. “But some people can’t pay for food.”

In Orange County, 34,998 people are homeless, and 16,332 of them are children. Eighty-one percent of homeless men, women and children feel severe hunger, according to the CSUF Volunteer and Service Center.

In 2012 it was reported by the Point In Time nationwide homeless count that 633,782

people were homeless across the United States, and California alone accounted for more than one in five homeless people or 20.7 percent.

Since 2007, homelessness has declined nationwide by 5.7 per-cent, according to the Point In Time survey.

The Hunger Coalition will be hosting two more events for the Hunger and Homeless-ness Awareness Week. A “Pov-erty 101” workshop will be held Wednesday at 2 p.m. in the Ti-tan Student Union, and Thurs-day there will be a screening of the documentary Homeless-ness: The Motel Kids of Orange County.

“I want people to understand that helping isn’t hard,” Morales said. “Bringing awareness is the first step to bringing it to con-sciousness.”

For more information on the events or to get involved, visit the Volunteer and Service Cen-ter in the Titan Student Union Room 2 or contact them at (657) 278-7623.

OPINION NOVEMBER 20, 2013WEDNESDAY

Last week, more than 20 uni-versities across the United King-dom banned Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” from being played in student union spaces.

The action was taken because students felt the song promoted rape culture in addition to per-petuating the notion that it was okay to objectify women, ac-cording to The Guardian.

Although the aims of the ban are admirable, its methods are questionable.

In the eyes of the student unions, banning “Blurred Lines” should be taken as a sign that the derogatory acts toward women are unacceptable. However, there is nothing from the ban itself that will prevent sexual as-sault or sexism from happening on university campuses.

Students who want to listen to the song can continue to listen to it on their iPods or on the radio.

This is not in any way an en-dorsement of “Blurred Lines,” or the sexist behavior it aggran-dizes. It is an opportunity to ex-plore the role that Thicke’s song plays in the worldwide struggle against patriarchy.

Instead of an outright ban, the growing popularity of “Blurred Lines” should be an opportunity for faculty to engage with stu-dents about why Thicke’s song is problematic.

Right before the chorus, Thicke (speaking to a woman) says, “Okay now he was close, tried to domesticate you. But you’re an animal, baby, it’s in your nature. Just let me liber-ate you.” These lines can be con-strued to mean that a woman needs a man to become civilized. In this particular instance, the woman Thicke is speaking to is incapable of being tamed, so Thicke suggests that she should give into her innate desires and allow him to “liberate” her.

The idea that men are the ones who civilize women implies that men are the final arbiters who get to decide what is acceptable behavior and that women can-not control their own destinies.

Domestication, the process Thicke puts forth as necessary for women, involves behavior where women cannot be ex-plicit about their sexual desires, although men can. Instead of challenging patriarchy, a system of society where men hold all the power, Thicke is reaffirming it.

In the music video, Thicke is accompanied by T.I. and Phar-

rell Williams, all of whom are fully dressed. This is contrasted heavily with the women who are dancing beside them, barely wearing anything.

The nudity symbolizes the lack of privacy women are af-forded in aspects of their lives, from their thoughts to the breaths they take. All must be revealed to their masters. It also perpetuates the idea that women should not dress for the purpose of functionality, but in a way that entertains and pleases men.

The women remain silent throughout the music video as the three men do all of the talk-ing and singing. Although this may appear to be harmless, it actually normalizes the submis-sion of women. Their forced si-lence makes it appear as if they have no problem with having their lives dictated to them, sug-gesting that women who watch the music video also should not object to this type of treatment by men.

What’s more, the women in the video are adorned with jew-elry whereas the men are wear-ing none. This feature, which would normally be seen as em-powering, has been inverted to become oppressive to the wom-en in Thicke’s video.

As the balance of power is skewed towards Thicke and his two male colleagues, the jewel-ry’s purpose is to correct the im-balance created by their uneven worth. The value of women is al-ready assumed to be lower than that of men, so women need the added value of the jewelry to compensate.

Showing both the men and the women in the video without jewelry, in the paradigm that Thicke has created, would have insinuated that both sexes are equal.

The textual analysis of Thicke’s lyrics and the cultural analysis of his video, which un-derscored the sexism in his song, were only made possible by the privilege that this author has had in being marginally educat-ed on feminism.

Quite frankly, this author’s knowledge of the subject hap-pened by chance, as he came across influences who thought he should know.

It is unfortunate that society expects everyone to understand what sexism and feminism are without putting in resources and regulations into institutions of learning to make this expecta-tion a reality.

Banning “Blurred Lines” at universities closes the opportu-nity for meaningful conversa-tion by experts who can better articulate its inherent flaws.

If the 2012 presidential election was held a year later, Mitt Romney could have sat in the Oval Office.

According to an ABC News/Washington Post poll, Rom-ney would hold a slight lead in the popular vote on the presi-dent, with 49 percent versus Obama’s 45 percent.

The results are a mirror im-age of Romney’s four-point popular-vote loss in 2012, ac-cording to the poll.

President Barack Obama’s aggressive approach to the Affordable Care Act is seen as the reason for the drop in popular support. It has led to his lowest approval rating since 2008.

After being elected as the 44th President of the United States, Obama was given the reins of the country after a highly unpopular end to for-mer President George W. Bush’s foreign and economic policies. He was the Demo-cratic president to induce change after eight years of dominance by the Republican Party.

Besides all that, Obama

broke the final racial bar-rier in the country, effectively proving the childhood myth that everybody can be presi-dent. Young voters embraced him with open arms, with 66 percent of voters under 30 supporting the Democratic candidate.

However, now with his sec-ond term in full force, his leg-acy is being tainted more and more with the public debacle that is Obamacare.

Admittedly, Obama and his administration mishandled the process of its legislation. The opposition of the act by the Republican Party led to the government shutdown in early October, leading to criticism by political leaders around the world.

The technical difficulties with the federal web site, HealthCare.gov, has Ameri-cans up in arms, complain-ing they cannot access the government-monitored mar-ketplaces. Seven in 10 Ameri-cans said the federal mandate should be delayed until the problems are fixed.

Obama has been under fire before. He faced rough waters with the state of the economy, controversy over health care reform prior to the implemen-tation of Obamacare and en-vironmental concerns such as the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The difference is he

still had a favorable reputa-tion despite the issues.

All these problems seem miniscule when compared to the Obamacare fiasco.

The Affordable Care Act was supposed to be the big one. It was going to be his leg-acy, his long-lasting mark on the country. His place in his-tory was to be defined as the man who singlehandedly pro-vided every American with health care.

The president faces an up-hill battle to regain the pub-lic’s trust. Obama must find a way to rebuild a favorable rep-utation with Americans while convincing them the health care law will be successful.

Obama entered his second

term with a favorable im-pression by the majority of Americans, after ending his first term with the capture and death of al-Qaida leader, Osama bin Laden.

For the first time in his two terms, the majority of the pub-lic has an unfavorable impres-sion of him. Fifty-two percent of Americans said they have an unfavorable impression of him, while 46 percent said they have a favorable impres-sion, according to the ABC News/Washington Post poll.

Although the difference is only slight, it can foreshadow a decline for the future.

The average rating for Obama’s term as president sits at 49 percent, 5 percent less than the average presi-dent rating of 54, according to Gallup’s presidential approval ratings.

Obama still has a few years to improve his reputation among the American public. Technicians are constantly working to improve the web-site. The administration is still looking for ways to please the public, such as Obama’s announcement that people could keep their current health care plan for a year.

However, his administra-tion needs to act fast in order to restore his positive image before it plummets to an all-time low.

Inspecting Carol, a comedic play about the holiday season, will premiere at Cal State Ful-lerton’s Young Theatre on Friday Nov. 22.

Directed by Joseph Ar-nold, Ph.D., the production is based on a Russian play called The Government Inspector, in which villagers mistake a stranger for a government of-ficial and cater to his every need.

Inspecting Carol puts a holi-day spin to the satirical play

The play follows a small the-ater company in the Midwest that is expecting an evaluator from the National Endowment of the Arts to decide whether or not their grant will be renewed.

Instead, they mistake an as-piring actor as the evaluator, creating comedic consequenc-es as the company attempts to organize its annual produc-tion of A Christmas Carol.

“The play brings together an assortment of personalities and egos in the midst of trying to remount their Christmas fundraiser with only four days of rehearsal,” Arnold said.

Inspecting Carol is a play within a play, where the actors

on stage portray actors in a theater production.

Set in 1991, the same year A Christmas Carol originally de-buted on Broadway, the charac-ters dress in costumes that are very distinct to ‘90s fashion.

When the actors finally en-ter performance mode, they switch to clothing in the style of Charles Dickens.

Amanda Arbues, 27, who has a master’s in acting, plays Zorah Block, the artistic di-rector of the play’s theater company.

“I think our designers have done an amazing job of really giving it that holiday feel,” Ar-bues said.

She said her character is an extremely passionate, hot-tempered Lithuanian woman.

“I’m Argentine and Mexi-can,” Arbues said. “We have that Latin f lair and passion to us … so I found that I was able to relate.”

Arbues said she was a dra-ma queen in high school and had no problem tapping into her inner diva for this role.

“(Arnold) casted this show very well,” Arbues said. “Be-cause there are glimpses of all of us in our characters.”

The characters are pressured by situations beyond their con-trol and experience more dra-ma off-stage than in the pro-duction itself, Arnold said.

“The play is meant to en-tertain,” Arnold said. “It is a

loving, comic and sometimes fractured ‘Christmas card’ that is perfect for the end of our fall semester and the be-ginning of the holiday season.”

To embrace the holiday spir-it, Christmas music will reso-nate throughout the Young Theatre before the play and during intermission, Arbues said, who studied acting at New York University.

Inspecting Carol is also about community and coming together during the holidays, Arbues said.

“It very much has this holi-day feel,” Arbues said. “Which is great because a lot of people love the holidays.”

Arbues said she never does the same performance twice.

“I believe that every perfor-mance will be different,” Ar-bues said. “It’s really going to be a lot of fun.”

Jordan Kubat, 26, a master’s of acting student, plays Wayne Wellacre, the theater’s hope-ful who is mistaken for an in-former.

Kubat described Wellacre as an “everyman.”

“He’s just a dreamer who’s trying to pursue this crazy act-ing dream,” Kubat said. “He’s a

little bit dorky and a little bit eclectic … his humor is similar to mine.”

Before turning to acting, Kubat’s character worked in data entry, which Kubat did himself while living in New York for a year.

Inspecting Carol is defi-nitely a comedy, but its dark side and crude language also makes it a farce, Kubat said.

“Crude language is some-times necessary when you need to express your feelings,” he said. “There are also sug-gested sexual situations as well.”

It is important to gauge au-dience reaction, Kubat said. Since no audience is exactly alike, he always keeps an eye on what works and what doesn’t.

“The audience definitely has a heartbeat,” he said. “As an actor, you have to pay atten-tion to that.”

Inspecting Carol is all about pursuing your dreams and having fun, Kubat said.

Inspecting Carol runs through Dec. 15. Tickets are $11 for general admission and $10 with an advance Titan discount.

BRIAN CHESTERDaily Titan

It’s the 20th time you’ve heard “Deck the Halls” this week. It’s only Monday and you still haven’t made it past November.

The lines are getting lon-ger, your shifts end later and the customers are just a little more “grinchy” than usual. Parking is a nightmare and some employers even de-mand that you arrive to work early so you can be shuttled into the mall by the masses.

Extended holiday hours have begun and the 2013 holiday season 2013 has com-menced.

Working retail during the holiday season isn’t easy. An already a hectic work and school schedule just got a little harder to squeeze into a seven-day week.

After six years of working in retail during the holidays, I have had my fair share of Yuletide blues.

At times, it can be depress-ing to see everyone else out shopping and having a good time while you’re stuck with a neverending pile of go-backs.

Working during the holi-day can also bring in a lot of extra money students will be thankful for in January. Many students find giving up a holiday party here and there does the wallet good.

For the students who will be taking on the holiday sea-son from behind the register, here are some tips to sur-viving the holiday season, all while working retail and prepping for finals.

1. Accept the Christmas music

That’s right, just accept it. After the countless ren-ditions of “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas,” I still try to enjoy the festive music just a little.

I have even heard of some retail employees who have changed the words into anti-holiday anthems.

However for me, when it comes to Christmas music I say if you can beat them? Join ‘em!

2. Bring your own lunch Don’t even think about

dragging yourself out of your crazy store just to find your-self in an even crazier food court. That lady who was just yelling at you for not having gift boxes is now yelling at the man working the corn-dog stand for not having deli-

style mustard. Save yourself the trouble

and the money and bring your lunch for the next few weeks.

3. Save the heels for an-other day

If you’re working retail, chances are you’ve gotten some killer deals on some fabulous shoes. I may be committing a fashion sin by saying this, but leave the heels at home no matter how amazing they may make your legs look.

After a hectic nine-hour shift you will be icing your feet for hours after work. Trust me on this one, stick to f lats.

4. Be patient with your customers

Or at least try to be patient. Anyone who has worked in any kind of service industry has most likely been served a verbal beatdown by an angry customer.

While I’m not suggesting employees sit back and take all the insults lying down, I do suggest taking into con-sideration how stressful the season can be.

Rest easy knowing what-ever this out-of-control cus-tomer does, it will always be a humorous breakroom story to tell!

5. Take your breaks

By California state law you may take a 30-minute unpaid break if you’re working more than five hours. Employees are also entitled to a 10-min-ute break for every four hours worked. Take your breaks and don’t feel guilty about it.

Drink a lot of water, caf-feinate yourself throughout your shift, check out the cute cats on Instagram and get back to work.

6. Bring study guides or books to work

Even though it’s the most wonderful time of the year, it is also time for finals. Of course, the busiest times of the year at school and in re-tail must collide into one superstorm of a month we call December. Whether it’s 10 minutes on lunch or five minutes on the shuttle back to your car, have your home-work handy so you have less to do at home when 25 Days of Christmas is on.

These are just a few tips for surviving working retail this glorious season. Try to enjoy the holidays no matter how much eggnog it takes. Cheers!

THE FOODIE

Pepe’s 821 North Placentia Ave. Mexican, Fast food Distance: .4 miles from campus

What I had: Breakfast burrito Beef taco

Whoever thought up the idea of cramming every single break-fast item into a tortilla is a ge-nius.

It combines two of the best types of food, breakfast and Mexican.

There are many places around campus if you’re looking for a quick drive-through breakfast burrito. Taco Bell, Del Taco and Jack in the Box are a few of the most obvious and convenient choices, but if you’re craving something a little more than a run-of-the-mill fast food burrito, look no further than Pepe’s finest Mexican food.

Located off of Placentia Ave., near Nutwood Avenue, this small chain fast food restaurant lives up to it’s motto by serving some of the “finest” Mexican food Fullerton has to offer.

“Finest” is a very opinionated subject when it comes to Mexi-can food.

Some people love Chipotle and say it has the best Mexican food.

Others swear by taco trucks and hole-in-the-wall places with names that will make any non-Spanish speaker trip over their own tongue.

I prefer the latter, and as far as fast food restaurants go, Pepe’s is a bit more street than class.

The drive through experience isn’t the fastest or cleanest. Some of the signs are missing the pric-es, they don’t take credit cards and there is a 65 cent fee for us-ing a debit card. All of this is typ-ical for a small-scale restaurant.

But once the food is ready, it’s like heaven in a bag. Sure, Pepe’s offers other food, but their breakfast burrito is what they’re known for.

Swaddled like a newborn baby and having the heft of one, the breakfast burrito is packed to the brim with all essential parts of the first meal of the day.

Egg, potatoes, cheese, beans, a pinch of spinach and the choice of either sausage, bacon or both push the tortilla to its limit.

Covered in the right amount of taco sauce, being a hefty size and at about $5.50, the quality and the quantity of the burrito are both top notch.

The filling doesn’t come off as greasy, since the potatoes absorb most of the grease and taco sauce in a tofu-like way. Downing this beast provides the consumer with an ever-evolving experience of taste due to the sheer amount of ingredi-ents being packed in different ways.

It takes a while to down this tornado of breakfast food.

Half of the burrito left me satisfied for the rest of the day. It can’t be healthy to have half a burrito as my only form of sus-tenance for the day, but it sure was inexpensive.

There is other food at Pepe’s, and although it’s not as exqui-site as the breakfast burrito, it’s still a solid choice for a more authentic Mexican food experi-ence at a drive through.

I tried a shredded beef taco wrapped in a husky burrito that was copiously covered in diced tomatoes and shredded cheese.

The generous amount of to-matoes really helped to make the taco lighter than it would have been, and overall it was a satisfying experience.

It’s hard to break out and try other parts of the menu when the breakfast burrito is so damn good.

If it’s your first time, I’d rec-ommend to try the best and go with the breakfast burrito, but judging from the small sample size I had, the rest of the menu seems pretty safe.

To anyone who enjoys burri-tos and/or breakfast foods, this place won’t disappoint.

If you don’t, the rest of the menu is still pretty good, but there are a number of untried Mexican restaurants around Fullerton that could be even better. Tweet at us @Daily_Ti-tan if you know of any!

Kick off Thanksgiving break with classic jazz hits, brought to you by the Cal State Fullerton Jazz Singers.

The Jazz Singers will croon the night away Thursday at Meng Concert Hall.

The performance will in-clude “I’m Beginning to See the Light” by Duke Ellington, Don George, Johnny Hodges and Harry James; “Down by the Riverside,” a traditional gospel song; “Señor Blues” by Horace Silver; “Before You Know It” by John Proulx and K. Lawrence Dunham; and “Mr. P.C.” by John Coltrane.

The Jazz Singers will also be accompanied by the Don Shelton Quartet, who will play various swing, ballad and blues standards.

John Proulx, the conduct-ing professor for the Jazz Singers, is a Grammy award-winning artist, including his song “Before You Know It” which was co-written with lyricist K. Lawrence Dunham for Mary Stallings’ 2010 al-bum Dream.

In 2006, Proulx co-wrote “These Golden Years” with D. Channsin Berry on her album Turned to Blue. Again working with Dunham, Proulx helped write the song “Stuck in a Dream” for Mary Stalling’s 2005 album Re-member Love.

In addition to compos-ing, Proulx is also a talented singer and pianist, and just released his third album for the label MAXJAZZ titled The Best Thing for You, co-produced by CSUF professor Bill Cunliffe.

Cunliffe conducts CSUF’s Jazz Orchestra, the Jazz Big Band and the Latin En-semble. Proulx and Cunliffe had the honor of touring in Changsha, China at the Or-ange Island International Jazz Festival.

The Jazz Singers is a weekly class composed of 12 students, all of whom will be performing in showcase Thursday. Many will be fea-tured as soloists. These will include both rehearsed and improvised solos.

The first half of the night will feature the Jazz Singers,

accompanied by the CSUF Jazz Trio. The second half will feature the Don Shelton Quartet, accompanied by CSUF faculty members in-cluding Proulx, Paul Kreibich and Luther Hughes.

Kreibich and Hughes are both professors in jazz stud-ies and commercial music.

Hughes, who specializes in bass guitar, records with his own band Luther Hughes & the Cannonball-Coltrane Project, who received na-tional recognition for their 2011 album Things are Get-ting Better.

Hughes instructs classes on both the electric and dou-ble bass guitar.

Kreibich has toured in-ternationally as a drum-mer for jazz icons like the Ray Charles Band, the Gene Harris Quartet and Carmen McRae. Kreibich teaches the jazz drum set at Fullerton.

Don Shelton, a reed player, began his music career at the U.S. Navy School of Music in 1952.

He later moved to Los An-geles where he joined the Trends, singers for a popular radio show, and in 1959 he became a member of the a cappella group, the Hi-Lows. In addition to singing, he can play the clarinet, alto saxo-phone and f lute.

The Jazz Singers’ set cov-ers a wide range of rhythm, from medium swing, to funk, to samba.

The most recognized bal-lad they’ll be singing is “Geor-gia on my Mind,” music by Hoagy Carmichael and lyrics by Stuart Gorrell. Although this song was first recorded in 1930 by Hoagy Carmi-chael and his Orchestra, it didn’t become a hit until Ray Charles covered it in 1960 featured on his Genius Hits the Road album.

Don Shelton will be accom-panying the Jazz Singers’ ren-dition of “Georgia.”

Proulx encourages every-one to come see the perfor-mance Thursday.

“They’ve worked really hard all semester and the audience will be sure to have a good time. Plus, Don Shelton is a wonderful musician and is not to be missed,” Proulx said.

Make sure to grab tickets while you can; they’re only $8 with your Titan discount. The performance begins at 8 p.m. on Thursday at the Meng Con-cert Hall.

The Cal State Fullerton wom-en’s choir and men’s choir is gear-ing up for one of the last musical performances of the year.

The two groups will share the stage tonight in a rip-roar-ing concert.

The 80-person women’s choir will perform music from Ben-jamin Britten, Susan Borwick, Craig Hella Johnson, John Rut-ter and R. Murray Schafer.

The 43-member Men’s Cho-rus will feature music from Rachel Stenson, Jacob Handl, Mark Sirett, J. Michael Dor-ough, Joseph Jennings, Bruno Mars and the Scottish Folk Song, “Loch Lomond.”

Robert Istad and Christopher Peterson will be the conductors of the performance.

“Missa Brevis” is one of the main pieces that will be per-formed by women’s choir during the show Wednesday.

This year marks the 100th birthday of Benjamin Britten, a famous English composer who died in 1976. In celebration, CSUF will pay tribute to the mu-sician by taking part in the “Brit-ten 100,” where several venues across Los Angeles will hold a

concert dedicated to Britten. “The women have learned the

piece really well,” said Robert Is-tad, Ph.D., CSUF professor and director of the women’s choir. “It’s going to be a beautiful per-formance.”

Istad said he chose Britten because he wanted to be part of the celebration of the compos-er’s birth.

The concert will feature sev-eral themes including women’s suffrage, styles of poetry and re-ligious undertones.

The women’s performance will also include solos sung by students in the choir. Jessica Dalley, 18, a music major, and Katherine Martini are two of those solo performances.

The two will be singing a piece from Benjamin Britten’s War Requiem (1962), in the Benedictus section.

Dalley and Martini will be transitioning from one part of the musical composition to another.

She said their solo part will be “a change of pace” to the concert as they come together in the end for a duet.

Another major work that will be featured is a piece by Craig Hella Johnson. The piece of work will feature “distich po-etry,” which is a two-line verse that will combine women’s choir and piano.

“We’re singing really difficult pieces, so it will be really exciting

to share how those work with ev-eryone,” Dalley said.

The musical pieces picked out for the women’s choir to sing fits the group, she said.

“We have such a unique blend and tone quality to us,” Dalley said.

Jason Pano, a graduate stu-dent studying music, will be conducting “Gamelan,” one of the last performances sung by the women.

Dorothy poems will also be sung to inspire and move the audience.

The men’s Choir will perform a contemporary a capella ver-sion of “Just the Way You Are” by Bruno Mars, along with other musical pieces from vari-ous composers. The oldest piece that will be performed was written in 1570.

“I always try to have a variety of music,” said Chris Peterson, Ph.D., CSUF professor and direc-tor of the men’s choir. “I want old songs, new songs, fast songs, slow songs and the right mix to keep the audience listening and enjoy-ing our music.”

He said it should be interest-ing seeing how both of the choir’s pieces work together and how they contrast.

The audience should expect to be enlightened by poetry and how their repertoire focuses on them as women, Dalley said.

Also featured is a spiritual song that is about being a woman from a speech that was given during the women’s rights movement.

The men and women will not be singing together in this per-formance, but will be at CSUF’s Deck the Hall concert on Dec. 15.

The campus puts together large holiday concerts featur-ing all four of the choirs sing-ing together.

The concert is set to last about one hour and 15 minutes and will start at 8 p.m. Wednesday.

Tickets for the concert are $10 and $8 with an advance Ti-tan discount.

Michael Williams and Mar-quis Horne added 10 points each for the Titans as well.

“We definitely improved (in the second half), but we’re still trying to find our identity,” Blackwell said.

Throughout the night, the Titans seemed to be out-matched and outpaced by a bigger, more physical USC team.

Trojans guard Byron Wesley was also able to torch Fuller-ton’s defense with 22 points on 7-of-14 shooting, while How-ard added 11 on the night.

Poor free-throw shooting also hurt the Titans, who at

one point were 6-of-16 from the line. They finished shoot-ing just 7-of-18 on free throws.

On the other hand, USC was able to convert their foul shots, making 21 free throws out of 30 attempts.

CSUF fell to 2-2 on the sea-son, with both losses coming on the road this year. They will next take the court on Saturday when they visit the San Jose State Spartans.

With marquee matchups looming in the Wooden Legacy tournament, it will be impor-tant for the Titans to not over-look their upcoming Western Athletic Conference foes.

With the victory over the Titans, USC improved to 3-1 early in the 2013 season.

Going forward, the Titans

will look to find an answer for their opponents’ big men, who were able to dominate the paint and score at will in the past few games.

That will certainly be a point of emphasis for Taylor and the coaching staff as the season progresses.

“More than anything, it’s a lesson for our group,” Taylor said. “First of all, you can’t come in here and expect to win a game when you shoot 7-of-18 from the free-throw line, turn the ball over 17 times and only have nine assists. That’s the exact opposite of a winning statistic.”

Looking for their first win of 2013-2014 season, the Cal State Fullerton’s women’s basketball team will travel cross-country to the state of New York to take on the University of Albany to-day.

This will be the Titans’ first road game of the season, and it comes against the tough and undefeated Great Danes (3-0), who are coming off back-to-back America East Conference championships.

It has been tough so far for the Titans (0-2), who dropped their first two home games of the season. First-year Head Coach Daron Park and his new coaching staff are hoping to turn around the season as they lead the Titans on this extended road trip and won’t be return-ing back to Titan Gym until Dec. 4 when they face Univer-sity of San Diego.

For the Titans, they have struggled on offense as they are

still trying to find rhythm and consistency. So far in their two losses, the Titans are shooting a 41.1 total field goal percentage, an abysmal 22.6 percent from beyond the three-point line and turning the ball over at an alarming rate of 19 per game.

Leading the Titans this year has been returning starter and last season’s leading scorer, ju-nior guard Chante Miles, as she leads the team in scoring (14), assists (2.5) and steals (2.5) a game.

Miles is shooting a stellar 52.2 total field goal percentage from the field, but has struggled from beyond the three-point arc with a low 28.6 percent.

Another returning athlete and leading Titan for the team this season has been junior for-ward Kathleen Iwuoha.

Coming off the bench has been different for Iwuoha, but she has produced for the Titans scoring 11.5 per game and lead-ing the team with an outstand-ing 58.8 total field goal percent-age.

Iwuoha is also tied with junior forward Natalie Wil-liams in leading the Titans in rebounds this season with 5.5 a game.

Sophomore guard Hailey King has also shown a bright spot for the Titans, as she is third on the team with 9.5 points per game.

As for the Great Danes, they are coming off an exceptional season where they went 27-4, 16-0 in the America East Con-ference, and a berth into the NCAA Tournament, before losing in the first round to the University of North Carolina.

Albany lost four starters from last season’s team, but seven players are returning, including offensive threats Shereesha Richards and Sarah Royals.

Richards will be a tough test for the Titans’ defense. In their three wins, Richards is leading Albany in scoring with a phenomenal 22 points and 12 rebounds per game. Rich-ards leads the team in shoot-ing with a 67 total field goal percentage.

Royals is second on the Great Danes with 15.3 points per game and is setting up her teammates with a team lead-ing 6.3 assists per game. She has also been deadly from out-side, shooting 57 percent from three-point land.

Margarita Rosario is third on the Great Danes with 8.7 points per game, but she leads the team with her defensive presence and team-leading 2.7 steals a game.

As a team, the Great Danes love to pressure the ball and create turnovers. They’re causing their opponents to av-erage 14.7 turnovers per game, which could be a problem for the Titans.

After the University of Al-bany, it’s a quick turnaround trip to New York City as the Titans take on Columbia Uni-versity on Friday.

The Cal State Fullerton base-ball team gathered at Goodwin Field for their final day of fall baseball on Saturday, but not before they gave back to the community.

Family Fun Day, a free annu-al baseball clinic held by Titan players and coaches, took place Saturday morning. Participat-ing kids had the opportunity to develop skills such as pitch-ing, hitting and fielding ground balls.

Chad Baum, a volunteer as-sistant coach for the baseball team, served as the supervisor for Family Fun Day.

“Just as a community out-reach, it’s a good way for us to

promote our camps and a good way for the community to come in and watch our last day of fall practice,” Baum said.

The Family Fun Day experi-ence was enhanced with the re-turn of Titan baseball alumni.

Players who the Titans lost to the Major League Baseball draft after the 2013 season came to Goodwin Field to help out with the event and reunite with their former teammates. These players included catcher Chad Wallach, shortstop Richy Pedroza and first baseman Carlos Lopez.

“Those guys come out like three times a week. I was ac-tually talking with Richy (Pe-droza) in the dugout. He was taking ground balls yesterday,” Head Coach Rick Vanderhook said.

Wallach and Lopez were both drafted by the Miami Marlins, and Pedroza was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals.

After Family Fun Day ended, the Titans participated in an intrasquad scrimmage, mark-ing their final fall scrimmage.

Six pitchers threw on the mound in the scrimmage. Sophomore starting ace Thom-as Eshelman kicked things off for the Titans, and junior start-ing pitcher Grahamm Wiest followed suit.

Freshman prospect Phil Bickford, who was drafted 10th overall in the 2013 draft by the Toronto Blue Jays, shined in the scrimmage with three in-nings of work. He retired every batter he faced without allow-ing a hit.

“It’s a sigh of relief. Fall’s been a grind and the coaches are happy. We’re happy. During the talk they said that we’ve come a long way, and pretty much it’s a sigh of relief,” Bickford said.

The other pitchers who threw on the mound were freshman Chad Hockin, junior Tyler

Peitzmeier and freshman Max-well Gibbs.

Highlights from the Titan hitters included a home run from junior outfielder Clay Williamson, who figures to re-ceive more significant playing time than last year. The home run gave Williamson a boost of confidence.

“Yeah, (the home run) defi-nitely does (give me confi-dence). This fall’s been good for our whole team and we should be pretty good this year, defi-nitely on the offensive side of it,” Williamson said.

Junior outfielder Austin Di-emer also made significant contributions to the scrimmage from the hitters’ side with four hits.

The Titans had plenty of reason to be optimistic as they reached the NCAA Super Re-gional series before getting knocked out by eventual Col-lege World Series champion

UCLA. CSUF finished the 2013 season ranked 10th in the na-tion, according to Baseball America. The high ranking reflected their second-best re-cord in school history at 51-10.

The Titans will be returning 19 players from last year’s team, including their entire start-ing rotation, which was their strength last season. Their ro-tation consists of Eshelman, Wiest and sophomore Justin Garza. Bickford is expected to battle for playing time in the starting rotation as well, based on his fall performance.

CSUF has added 11 newcom-ers to their 2014 squad. Their recruiting class ranked 12th in an evaluation of top 25 2013

recruiting classes by Baseball America. The Titans were the only program in the Big West to be ranked in this evaluation and the highest among Califor-nia schools.

The Titans will look to keep improving from their fall scrimmage performance as they head into the 2014 season to compete for their fifth na-tional championship in school history. They will hold their alumni game at Goodwin Field on Jan. 25 before they kick off the regular season at home against Washington State on Feb. 14 at 7 p.m.
