Many Coyotes do not like the price, quality, or vari- ety of foods offered on campus. “We are proud to offer a dining program complete with signature brands and menu selections that entail just about every item you can imagine,” according to the CSUSB Dining Services’ homepage. On the Sodexo CSUSB Facebook page, 13 students have rated the campus’ food and service, averaging a 3.3 out of 5 stars. All of the fi ve, four, three, and two star reviews are not accompanied with comments, however a few one star reviews are elaborated. “Extremely slow service and some workers need to retake their food safety class to learn about cleanliness,” stated Yousef Ar on the Sodexo CSUSB Facebook page. Marcos Ordaz described his dining experience on the Sodexo CSUSB Facebook page as “overpriced and cheap food, terrible.” Depending on the location of where a student con- sumes his or her meal on campus, either at the Blue Coyote Pub and Eatery, the Coyote Cafe in the Student Union or the Commons, opinions are mixed and vary greatly from one individual establishment to another.

1. Pilot (Season 1, Episode 1): Simply because, if the fi rst episode doesn’t catch your attention, then why continue watch- ing, right? The fi rst episode showcases beautifully how the rela- tionship between the show’s two main characters will grow, not to mention sci-fi in all it’s glory.

2. Clyde Bruckman’s Final Response (Season 3, Episode 4): In my opinion, this is the best stand-alone episode. No gov- ernment conspiracies or aliens in sight, but rather an episode about a clairvoyant (played by Peter Boyle who won an Emmy Award for this performance) who can predict the way a person will die. This is defi nitely the episode you will fi nd yourself most emotionally invested in.

3. Bad Blood (Season 5, Episode 12): Possibly the funniest epi- sode in the series, it centers around a small town with a supposed vampire problem. The episode explains the story fi rst from Scully’s point of view, then from Mulder’s. This episode does a great job of explaining the frustration Mulder and Scully sometimes feel to- wards each other.

4. X-Cops (Season 7, Episode 12): A skillfully made cross-over by producer Vince Gilligan (creator of Breaking Bad), X-Cops brought together X-Files and Cops, two of Fox’s most successful shows. Filmed like an episode of Cops with hand held cameras, Mulder and Scully partner with local police offi cers to fi nd the “monster of the week.” This is undoubtedly the most creative episode in the series.

5. The Truth (Season 9, Episodes 19 and 20): The fi nale of the series was a two-part spectacle that was the perfect ending to the show. The episodes brought back Mulder who is found to be on trial for murder and must race to prove his innocence. It does a great job of tying together many of the lingering loose ends, while also leaving room for more questions, which are hopefully to be answered in the upcoming revival.
