Padillaappeals speaks at to CSUF millennials Voter Registration Concert

PRISCILLA BUI Daily Titan

Cal State Fullerton’s political organizations and California’s political leaders united Tuesday afternoon to celebrate National Voter Registration Day at the Stu- dent Housing piazza. The “Rock the Vote” concert partnered with the Or- ange County Registrar of Voters in an effort to get more students to register to vote for the upcoming election. The concert was the first of many events that will be hosted in collab- oration with the campus community through organizations such as CSUF Re- publicans, College Dem- ocrats of CSUF and the Orange County Registrar of Voters. Both the Orange Coun- ty Registrar of Voters and CSUF’s political clubs were present to encourage students to vote, and help some of them to fill out voter registration forms. During introductory re- marks, Neal Kelley, whose role in the Orange Coun- ty Registrar of Voters con- cerns voter registration and elections throughout the county, said that student voices needed to be heard in this election, regardless of who they were voting for.

A student living in one of the University’s resident halls has a suspected case of chicken pox and has been escorted off campus until he or she is no longer contageous. The medical staff at the Student Health Center (SHC) diagnosed the student on Sept. 26, and he or she may have exposed students, faculty and staff over the week prior. The student ate at the Gastronome on Sept. 23 and Sept. 26. Chicken pox is an airborne virus that causes itching, blister-like rashes, tiredness and a fever.

JACQUELINE LINDENBERG Daily Titan

Honors Student Advisory Council (HSAC), a new re- source within the University Honors Program, strives to not only improve and support students in their academic careers, but also show Cal State Fullerton in a positive and inspirational light. The honors council hopes to “build a strong community between all honors students and faculty while also raising awareness of the honors program at Cal State Fullerton,” according to the program website. President of HSAC and biochemistry major, Kaitlynn Kim, and Vice President and biochemistry major, Meagan Phelan, have created a mentor-mentee program to devel- op members’ skills, assist in their senior honors projects and offer support in any academic adversity they may face. “Our goal is to open up to all honors students and just make people more aware of the resources available to them here,” Phelan said.

JACQUELINE LINDENBERG Daily Titan

With Hollywood running out of original ideas, pick- ing up books and adapting them into movies seems to be done without hesitation. With authors like Jane Aus- ten, Sophie Kinsella and J.K. Rowling having their works turned into block- busters, it feels like most of the movies that make it to the big-screen are adaptations of novels. However, books are interpreted dif- ferently by each reader, and that specific vision created in a reader’s mind can never be compared with a typical Hollywood movie. In 2015 alone, over 40 books were turned into movies. That’s a lot of books for studios to be spending their valuable time and money on, especially considering all of the elements of production necessary for a Hollywood adaptation. Some highly anticipated releases coming out this year based on novels are “The Girl on the Train,” based on a book of the same name by KATIE ALBERTSON/ DAILY TITAN Paula Hawkins and “Miss Hollywood is a business and typically picks books that they know will make them a lot of money, regardless of whether they intend to honor the material or not.
