Tuesday February 4, 2020 The Student Voice of California State University, Fullerton Volume 107 Issue 4 Winston Duke shows off heroism Security cameras updated Campus surveillance is in the process of being adjusted and added to.

JESSICA BENDA Editor

Following a turbulent semes- ter that sparked questions about the safety of Cal State Fullerton, University Police continues to add and improve security camer- as on campus. One of several ongoing proj- ects was the hiring of the public safety consultant firm Mission Critical Partners, which has been analyzing on-campus cameras DANIEL VENEGAS / DAILY TITAN and its effectiveness.

TREVOR VERNOLA Staf Writer

Thirty-two years is how long fans of the Los Angeles Dodg- ers have been waiting to watch their team lift the World Se- ries trophy on a cool October night. Ever since Orel Hershiser and Kirk Gibson led the team to vic- tory over the Oakland Athletics in 1988, Dodger supporters have felt a World Series drought that a city as large and profound as Los Angeles should never be forced to feel. In 2017 and 2018, the team returned to the Fall Classic but came up short each time, ending both seasons in a gut-wrenching fashion, right in their own stadium. On Jan. 13, the Houston As- tros, who defeated the Dodgers in the 2017 World Series, were confirmed guilty of electroni- cally stealing signs during the course of the title run by the MLB. The Boston Red Sox, who beat the Dodgers in the World Series the following year, have been rumored to illegally steal signs, but that case is still under investigation by the MLB, and the league has not yet assigned punishment.

Low self-esteem can also affect the smaller things in our lives that we don’t real- ize. We might avoid doing cer- tain things because we feel like we’re being judged, and it becomes harder to cope with stressful situations. Conversations about body acceptance need to start at a young age. Our childhood is the time we should be taught how to love ourselves and about the consequences that come with body shaming.
