Washington Women’s Center Book Club Provides a Forum for Exploring the Novel Still Alice offers a compelling portrayal of the devastating toll that Alzheimer’s disease can take on its victims and their loved ones. This debut novel by Lisa Genova tells the story of a 50-year-old woman’s sudden descent into early onset Alzheimer’s. Dr. Alice Howland is a psychology professor at Harvard, living a comfortable life in Cambridge with her husband John. When she first begins forgetting things, she thinks it might be due to menopause. But when she gets lost jogging on a familiar route near her house, she knows something more serious is happening. But she is completely unprepared for the diagnosis of early onset Alzheimer’s.

The bestselling novel “Still Alice” will be discussed at the next Washington Women’s Center Book Club meeting on Wednesday, September 11, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. The Book Club is open to anyone in the community who wants to read the book and dis- cuss it with others. Patty Chadwell, a registered nurse and breast care navigator at Washington Hospital will lead the group with a set of discussion questions and help guide the talk.

CSU campuses to use ‘Aware Awake Alive’ program

SUBMITTED BY STEPHANIE THARA

California State University (CSU) Chancellor Timothy P. White is committed to roll-out the Aware Awake Alive peer-to-peer program to all 23 campuses as another tool for identifying and acting on the symptoms of alcohol poisoning. The chancellor also said that program materials would be translated into Spanish and student leaders would receive training from a team at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. These commitments were made during the CSU Board of Trustees meeting on July 23, as the chancellor and trustees reviewed the sixth biennial report on Campus Alcohol Education and Prevention Pro- grams. The board, students, faculty, staff, alumni and members of the pub- lic heard from Scott and Julia Starkey, the parents of Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo freshman Carson Starkey who died of alcohol poisoning in 2008 at 18 years old. The parents co-founded the Aware Awake Alive nonprofit to ensure the prevention of needless alcohol-related tragedy becomes a lasting legacy of their son. Aware Awake Alive communicates to high school and college stu- dents directly with a “Drunk or dying?” message that is simple, action- able and non-judgmental. Web-based tools are designed to be intuitive and simple to use for young people and those who influence them, like parents and teachers. Learn more and get involved at www.awareawakealive.org.

Agenda Item – Facilities Mitigation and Financing Options: Superintendent James Morris explained that although it is great that Fremont has a burgeoning population, it is also problematic in that as school enrollment grows rapidly each year, the district’s schools are becoming more saturated. Morris stated that due to the improving economy, many housing developments are being built, but nevertheless, FUSD is still required to decrease class size by 24:1, over the next four years. “How do we mitigate the impact on the community?” he added. Attorney Marilyn Cleveland of Dannis Wolliver presented a variety of options to be considered. These ranged from possible increased de- veloper fees, voluntary mitigation agreements by developers, special taxes, general obligation bonds (GOB), or even the Mello-Roos Facili- ties Act (which allows cities to approve of a bond measure on a poten- tial area to be developed with a tax imposed later on those residents). More information will need to be gathered by the Board and Staff re- garding the best option to pursue.

Larry O Car Show a big hit August 20, 2013 WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE Page 36 Your pre-college checklist SUBMITTED BY DOTTIE DEHART

Three million students will be starting college this fall. If you’re one of them, it’s a good idea to do some things right now to make the transi- tion as easy as possible. College pro- fessors Lynn F. Jacobs and Jeremy S. Hyman share ten things you can do this summer that will set you up for success once your first semester of college begins. “If you start preparing for your first semester now, you’ll save yourself a lot of stress once you’re on campus,” says Jeremy S. Hyman, coauthor along with Lynn F. Jacobs of The Secrets of Col- lege Success: Over 800 Tips, Tech- niques, and Strategies Revealed, 2nd Edition. “Setting yourself up to hit the ground running is one of the best ways to ensure that you make the most of your entire college career.” Jacobs and Hyman—professors who have taught at eight different col- leges and universities—know what they’re talking about as they share decades’ worth of their observations and advice. Here, they share ten things you should do this summer to get ready for college: Get to orientation—early. At your school’s orientation, you’ll not only learn your way around campus and find out about various college services, you’ll also probably actually pick your courses. And, like airplane seats, once the places are gone, they’re gone. Get some hardware—and software. Though iPads and other tablets are quite the rage, Jacobs and Hyman be- lieve that a laptop is a much better choice for college. It’s easier to take notes in class with a regular keyboard, and when writing papers you’ll want a device that uses Word and Excel. Mi- There are neighbors, then there is crosoft has special college pricing: Do a a neighbor who is there Google search for “Microsoft academic discounts” for details. THINK MELLO INSURANCE Surf the college website. Here you’ll #OB84518 find not only the campus calendar and 510-790-1118 the college’s rules and regulations, but www.insurancemsm.com also actual course syllabuses that will help you learn more about what each class entails before you choose your schedule. And while you’re at it, check out the majors and career information. Get the books. While most stu- dents’ natural inclination is to buy books at the college bookstore, you can often get a much better deal on web- sites such as www.cheapesttextbooks.com, www.big- words.com, and www.textbooks.com. Be sure to consider all book “modali- ties”: e-books, semester-long book rentals, and used copies are all ways to save on the $600-$800 amount that students routinely pay for each semes- ter’s books. Reach out to your roommate. Sum- mer’s a great time to friend your room- mate on Facebook or email. You can learn about his or her interests, hobbies, and interior decorating ideas, and you can also set dorm or apartment rules. Have “the talk.” Talk about finances with your parents so that you’re all on the same page: Are you expected to have a part-time job? Are you expected to contribute your own savings?
