  • LIT at the Beach S1E2: "Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Atwood

    In this series, Daily Forty-Niner staff will introduce a variety of books that are written by female authors in celebration of Women’s History Month.

    For this episode, Isabel Silagy, community engagement editor at Daily Forty-drNiner, dives into "Handmaid's Tale" by Margaret Atwood and the significance of the book and how prevalent it is to today.

    Originally published in 1985, "The Handmaid's Tale" is set in dystopian New England which is ruled by an oppressive Christian regime which forces women to live under their rule. Women no longer have jobs money or independence and are forced to be wives, housekeepers and handmaids. Handmaids are fertile women who are assigned to families of powerful men in government and are forced to carry children for families unable to conceive.

    This book is an award winning book but is at the center of controversy and has been banned for graphic content and the critique of Christianity. This story is similar to the period America is in where women's rights and voices are being stripped all in the name of governmental control.

    This book is available currently at the University Library and can be purchased on Amazon as well.

    This special series will continue throughout the month of March and new episodes will drop every Tuesday.

  • Beach Weekly S8E6: The Nugget is hiring, PRSSA and AMA Beach Cleanup, Stronger Wi-Fi Available

    The Nugget Bar & Grill has postponed their planned opening date due to staff shortages. They are hiring for hosts, chefs and department leads and offer competitive pay and flexible hours.

    The American Marketing Association on campus and the Public Relations Student Society of America linked up to clean the beach in Long Beach and shared how exciting it is to create events for students to participate in person after being virtually distanced for so long.

    Students have complained about poor Wi-Fi connection on BeachNet+ but tech support at CSULB says Eduroam is the safer, more reliable option that requires a sign on and ensures a stronger connection.

    Also, meet three students who began a petition for graduating students who were disappointed at CSULB commencement committee's abrupt decision to not give students a chance to walk on stage.

    In an ASI meeting this week, CSULB seniors voiced their thoughts on the commencement committee's biased survey for graduating students, in which they seemed to want to discourage a traditional ceremony.

    And a healthier food option arrives to CSULB. Shake Smart, the new shake and smoothie location at the Student Wellness Recreation Center, provides protein shakes and healthy breakfast options for students on campus.
