Currently, Hyland's premier race lanes are dedicated to a private ski club. As a result, 84% of the High School racers who train with 16 teams at Hyland never get a chance to train on the steepest, best lit and best-equipped lanes. Athlete safety and development are the primary goals for all race teams. Skiers must have access to challenging and varied terrain to develop competitive and safe racing skills. Hyland is a public resource and all high school ski racers, whether they are on a private team or a public high school team, pay the same amount to train -- the cost of an annual pass. Will you join us in signing a petition to request fair allocation of Hyland's training terrain? Please visit Citz4Hyland.com for more information.

After their inspiration from Wesleyan Student Affairs and Hampshire College to create a poster spreading awareness about insensitive costumes this Halloween, we are inspired to thank them for their efforts and intentions in creation of the poster. We would like to applaud the following people for their efforts in promoting and fostering an environment that encourages respect and appreciation of students from all walks of life. We, as students, are thankful to Andrew Hanson, Dr. Juanita Hall, and Dr. Rahuldeep Gill and their respective departments that helped create a flyer challenging students to question whether or not their costumes are offensive. In a world where being "politically correct" has become a dirty word for some, we see politically correct as treating people with respect. This poster helps and encourages students to question their own costumes, as well as their friends' costumes this Halloween. This aids in helping to avoid perpetuating harmful stereotypes, misinformation, historical and cultural inaccurate so we do not mock, trivialize, reduce, or generalize any specific group. This poster and furthermore, these departments, have intentions to raise awareness and in fact, encourage campus-wide dialogue on the diverse cultures, identities, and backgrounds present on campus, in our community, and globally. These posters are in alignment with the California Lutheran University's Mission Statement in that they are educating "leaders for a global society who are strong in character and judgment, confident in their identity and vocation, and committed to service and justice." Although this poster is just a poster, it has started conversations on campus and encourages the respect for the diversity on and beyond our campus. While some may disagree with these posters, those that sign this petition encourage and support these individuals and their departments to continue to challenge and spark conversation on the topics of diversity and respect.

Recently, Residence Life circulated flyers throughout residence halls ordering students to question whether or not their costume was offensive, or if they “represent a culture that is not [their] own.” Residence Life seems to be saying that it is only acceptable for students to wear a costume that represents their own culture? For example, are only Native Americans allowed to wear Native American costumes? Are only Japanese students allowed to wear ninja costumes? Isn't it offensive to reduce such deep and historically important cultures into stereotypes that must not be perpetuated, and to confine the celebration of said cultures to themselves? Is this not cultural segregation? Why does Residence Life assume that by a student dressing in a certain costume, it means that they are mocking that culture/religion? How does Residence Life know that they are not appreciating and showing respect for that culture? This does a disservice to the students of CLU by asserting that it is better to be offended than to express yourself. Residence Life does not give enough credit to the students to make wise choices, and reverts to taking away their rights to choose whatever costume that they so choose. By posting this poster around campus, Residence Life is the one creating a negative stereotype of all students at CLU. Residence Life is making a mockery of your students by believing that we cannot make wise choices because we are only college students and that we don’t know any better, when in fact, we are adults and they should give us the credit that we deserve. The students of CLU deserve an apology for Residence Life’s offensive assumptions. The following signatories share their exclusive agreement with this position:

Most people I talk to are tired of "springing forward" and "falling back" twice a year. It is time to pick one and stick with it. Who agrees with me?

Tom Davis broke federal laws 1795 times and the following agencies are not prosecuting him: The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Colorado, who declined both civil and criminal prosecution. The State of Colorado Conejos County District Attorney’s Office also declined to file charges against Davis. To let Mr. Davis and the BLM employees commit these crimes and not be prosecuted is setting a very dangerous precedent that exterminating federally protected animals has no repercussions.

The GOP and interest groups the political pacs and lobbyists are the ones that pumps up and select a candidate They select the best bet as a puppet that will do what ever they say The candidate is own by interest groups the political pacs and lobbyists. well as long as they can spend vast amounts of money campaigns and on often false message ads and commercials aimed at influencing legislation and elections.

New York University’s Bobst Library’s Access, Delivery & Resource Sharing Services Department (ADRSS) comprises six separate units and provides a wide variety of services to library patrons, which requires an equal diversity of skills from library staff. In November 2013, NYU unilaterally changed the titles and job descriptions of the ADRSS staff members, effectively merging the six units into one, and thereby changed the terms and conditions of their employment, without regard to the work they were originally hired to perform or their ability to perform the additional duties. The Union of Clerical, Administrative & Technical Staff at NYU (UCATS), which represents these workers, as well as 1400 workers across NYU, immediately demanded bargaining over the effects of these changes. The staff members themselves have twice petitioned library management directly to bargain with UCATS. NYU has consistently and repeatedly refused to enter into good faith bargaining, even after it was ordered to do so by an administrative judge, following a trial before the National Labor Relations Board, which was adjudicated in April 2015. This case is vitally important not just to the thirty members of the Bobst ADRSS Department but to workers throughout the University who could see their jobs unilaterally transformed without an opportunity to bargain the effects of changes to their conditions of employment.

El lado oeste de la ciudad de San Bernardino no necesita otra tienda de licores en la esquina de Línea Base y Centro Médico. El distrito electoral 6 actualmente tiene la mayoría de las tiendas de licores que cualquier otro distrito electoral en San Bernardino. Y históricamente nuestro barrio ha sido el más valnurable a la delincuencia y la pobreza debido a su ubicación geográfica. Nuestra comunidad ha recorrido un largo camino; la emisión de esta licencia de licor traerá efectos negativos a nuestra comunidad. Esta es nuestra oportunidad para tomar acción directa y luchar para recuperar nuestra comunidad. The West Side of San Bernardino city does not need another liquor store on the corner of Baseline and Medical Center. Ward 6 currently has the most liquor stores than any other ward in San Bernardino. And historically our neighborhood has been the most valnurable to crime and poverty due to its geographical location. Our community has come a long way; the issuance of this liquor license will bring negative effects to our community. This is our chance to take direct action and fight to take back our community.

The death penalty should be abolished for a variety of reasons--after all, the vast majority of the world's nations have clearly found the reasons to do so. Since 2002, no year has gone by in which even 30 countries have executed someone (Amnesty International). To put that in perspective, the United Nations has 193 member states. In 2014, the United States executed 35 people, the sixth-highest total of any country. Ahead of the U.S., in order, were North Korea, China, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. Rounding out the top 10, in order, were Sudan, Yemen, Egypt, and Somalia (Amnesty International). Is this the company we want to keep? Are U.S. levels of democracy and rule of law comparable to those of these countries? Do we really want to allow our nation to kill its own citizens, especially when state institutions are willing to break the law to keep killing?

The California Coastal Commission recently decided that San Diego SeaWorld must halt the breeding of all captive orcas. But SeaWorld says it wants to continue breeding orcas in captivity and will challenge the commission's ruling. Tell SeaWorld to accept the CCC's decision and end their orca breeding program once and for all.

My mom hates James Bond. She will not listen to unimpeachable arguments like "James Bond is good" and "mom come on" and "mom seriously?? JAMES BOND!!!" Even my dad's frame-by-frame description of the cool as hell motorcycle part at the beginning of Skyfall did not soften my mom's James Bond-hating heart. We need your help. Please sign your name to help make my mom like James Bond before it's too late. God bless.
