Chronicle Page 7 Features Tuesday, November 13, 2012 World Vegan Month kicks off, will you make the switch?

By MARISSA MOONEY Asst. A&E Editor

he Presidential election isn’t the only thing to be aware of this November. Since 1994, World Vegan Day, Nov. 1, has been recog- Tnized as a vegan holiday and is celebrated all throughout the month. Veganism is the decision to not contribute to any ex- ploitation of animals, meaning staying clear of any ani- mal-tested products, clothing such as leather, fur or wool, skipping those trips to the zoo or SeaWorld. The biggest challenge potential vegans face on a daily basis, however, is their diets. Vegan diets means no meat, fi sh, dairy, eggs, products like gelatin and even honey. At CSUSB, there aren’t many food options for vegan students. The food trucks sometimes carry options like tofu burritos, and there are cucumber avocado veggie sushi available, but vegan students often make their own food, often including plenty of fruits and vegetables.

Chronicle Page 8 Features Tuesday, November 13, 2012 Career center prepares students for graduation By JOCELYN COLBERT Staff Writer

any college students are worried about not be- ing able to continue on Mto their desired career when they graduate. The CSU system provides many re- sources to ensure students graduate with their bachelors degree. Here’s where the problem occurs: Now that I have my bachelor’s degree, what do I do now? How do I apply for a job in my career fi eld? This is the dilemma most post-grads are facing. Yes, the CSU system ensures that one will receive their bachelor’s de- gree, but what about ensuring that a student will be able to work in their career fi eld, actually using their degree? Porsha Bracey, CSUSB graduate of the class of 2011, fi ts this exact scenario. She majored in Mass Communications, gradu- ated with a 3.1 GPA thinking this would be enough to ensure a job in her major. Sadly this was not the case. “I’m cur- rently working for Verizon selling home services such as Internet and cable.
