Saying Sayonara to 2017

Looking back at my 2016 end-of-the-year post before starting this one off was a pretty interesting little experience. Mostly because I reflected on the fact that last year was a pretty universally divisive time with a lot of personal accomplishment that made things worth it all in the end. This year, I have essentially the …

Don't know what it is exactly about this semester that has led to me posting about all these fairly important things I've been working on later than I should... But in this case it's probably safe to assume my statistics exam had something to do with it. Anyway, that's not important. What is important is …

October 2 & 3 Articles Published

I think it's probably pretty needless to say that the last few days have been rather hectic to be a journalist. The mass shooting that happened Sunday in Las Vegas was a truly horrific event that frankly threw everything for a loop. The most recent estimates for what I was working with last night were …

I had the opportunity to sit down with Cal State Fullerton's President Mildred García yesterday alongside my co-editor Brandon, our Managing Editor Harrison and our Editor-in-Chief Zack. While it has been an event I've been invited to take part in throughout my last few semesters as a News Editor, time constraints have always inhibited my …

So technically this article does not have my byline, and I'm not looking to take credit for it by any means, but the story is important enough that I definitely feel like it's worth sharing here. Yesterday, the White House announced their plans to eliminate the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program and sent …

I'm pretty exhausted. Between adjusting to new classes, a couple doctor's visits for things like physicals and working on the Daily Titan, I already feel like I could use a break. It wouldn't be exaggeration to say that this one week alone has felt like a month in its own right. At least watching people …

Happy solar eclipse day everyone! For those of you who are somehow unaware, a total solar eclipse is happening in North America today, which NASA says will leave 14 states in the U.S. totally dark for two minutes in the middle of the day. Unfortunately California is not one of those totally dark states. We …

Last Thursday was a busy day for me. I alluded to most of what happened that day in my post about the CFA Lobby Day story I published, but didn't go into too much detail about it there. On the one hand, I went to the first annual University Honors Program banquet, and had a …

You may be wondering to yourself, "Jason, how do you find the time to do all of your homework with all of the articles you've been involved with writing so far this month?" If you are, I first of all just have to say thank you for being so concerned, I really appreciate it. However, …

An exciting first day as a News Editor on a college newspaper

If you saw my last post about the article I had published today, you'll know that the fall 2016 semester has started for me, the first semester that I'm serving as one of the editors for the News page for Cal State Fullerton's Daily Titan newspaper. Toward the end of the summer there was a …
