Access Denied
Parking • Students
were confused and late to class
Tuesday when they found portions
of Lot 11A and Lot 12 blocked
off and around 200 parking spaces
were inaccessible. A sign notified
students the walkway between
Lot 12 and George Allen Field
would be closed as of May 1 due
to construction. Another sign
at the entrance to Lot 11 on
Palo Verde Street had the same
notification about the lot. There
are a number of walkways and
parking spaces blocked off by
fences in the two lots. Tracey

- Veterans
get support from Sacramento
Gov. Arnold
Schwarzenegger announced his
plans to work with California

the intention of increasing veteran enrollment in California colleges.
- Minorities
education rates climb
The enrollment
of under-represented populations,
traditionally called minorities,
in graduate school has slowly increased at Cal State Long Beach, and in the California
State University system as a whole, with non-white students comprising 41.6 percent
of master’s degrees awarded in 2002-03, compared to 32.4 percent in 1996-97,
according to the official CSU Web site.
- Our
View: Student involvement absent,
voting needed
It
was extremely disappointing to find
out last week only 679 students voted
during the 49er and Dig Referendum
elections last week. We are not
complaining because the referendum
did not pass, but it must be said that
at a school that brags about being
the third largest university in the
West, with over 34,000 students, that
is one sad little number.
- Global
warming no cause for alarm,
SVUs ok
Now,
I’ve never claimed to be
the brightest guy in the world,
but I’ve noticed some weird
stuff
with the weather lately. I mean, I know Florida has never been the best
place to live, but how many hurricanes
could hit one place in a year?

Thank you for the
article, “Women’s

the April 24 issue of the Daily Forty-Niner

Health
Summit. I would like to correct and clarify a statement I made in regards
to the summit. The quote in the article reads,“There were no agencies
or corporations hosting it.”

- Draft
disappoints NFL fans
Houston
you have a problem. There’s
a reason why the fans at the
sold-out Radio Music City Hall
chanted “overrated’’ and
booed profusely at the beginning
of Saturday’s NFL Draft.
So, please explain to me and
the millions of fans watching
all over the globe what was going
through your thought process
when you spent the number No.
1 pick and the dreams of your
franchise on North Carolina State
defensive end Mario Williams,
over Heisman trophy winner Reggie
Bush.
