“With what the media puts out, there should be more information on this, especially for people who have family in the military,” she said.Nilrangsri voiced her concern over not knowing whether or not the war was escalating with the support of the United States.

Citrus professor of political science Gerhard Peters said news on the conflict has decreased since the war began but that’s not out of the ordinary

The TeCS office is in some cases replacing computer hard drives to give employees a functional computer, while they work to recover the lost data using data recovery software.

A staff member at the Citrus College TeCS office accidentally deployed an operating system update to almost all computers on campus, many of which came back online unusable or with large amounts of data missing.

Citrus College’s technology operations and support supervisor, Tom Cheng, said that the reimaging issue occurred after a TeCS staff member mistakenly sent an operating system update that was meant for a small number of laptops to nearly all computers onThecampus.reimaging error has left many Citrus College employees without the files they need to carry out their jobs.

For computers that did not fully recover or are inoperable, the TeCS team asks that those affected submit a service ticket via the TeCS IT support link or call their help desk at (626) 857-4100.

The TeCS office recommends that Citrus College employees store all data on a centrally managed server to prevent data from being lost in the future.

“This shouldn’t have happened in the first place, we learned from our mistake.”

Citrus College’s chief information services officer, Bob Hughes, sent a memo to faculty staff and administrators at 1:13 pm after the incident occurred Sept. 8. The memo assured that the loss of data was not the result of ransomware or a cyber attack but was actually the result of an error made by staff at the TeCS office.

Varas blames this drop off in discussion on diminishing coverage of the story.

Communications major Jessica Nilrangsri is especially concerned with the lack of media coverage on the subject. She has a boyfriend joining the Navy.

A second memo from Hughes was sent out later on Sept. 8, revealing that the TeCS team had inspected desktops across campus

Hughes sent a third update to Citrus College employees Tuesday that said the TeCS team estimated between 75 and 100 computers had their hard drive completely wiped of all data, including an operating system needed for the computers to function. Some computers also were wiped of the software needed to connect with wireless printers on campus.

Considering the majority of states that recently banned abortion have historically been deficient at a socioeconomic level and haven’t had strong protective measures for women accessing abortions prior to Roe v. Wade being overturned, it would make an awful lot of sense for there to be a massive transition of female students from these states to places like California, Oregon or Washington, where protection is granted and even being made easier to Anotheraccess.thing that people need to consider is how having little to no access for an abortion is that if that scenario were to occur could add on to the ongoing youth mental health crisis.

The mobile app had been developed to deliver critical information to students. The daily screening is no longer necessary because the school is not following through with onsite COVID-19 testing this fall, the Citrus College website said.

Two months ago, the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade, which was a landmark decision where the court ruled that the Constitution did not confer the right to an abortion.

Opinion Tuesday, September 20, 2022 3CLARION

The impact of Roe’s overturning may not be so effective for students here in Citrus or any other college within California where access is being expanded, but this does lead most Americans into asking several questions of how many college students this will affect nationwide. We are left wondering how many students may possibly transfer here to be assured that they will be protected if a circumstance of needing access to an abortion

Aug. 2, abortion has fully been banned by 10 states. Considering that this happened a month ago, we must face the fact that many students will likely transition from one of those states to another one that has protections and accessibility to an abortion.

In theory, students were not supposed to enter the campus without weekly testing and an online daily screening. Citrus did have trouble implementing that, and many students would just answer the questions without taking a rapid test.“None of my teachers use it anymore,” math student Ryan Ayala

Mobile daily screening app is ineffective and pointless

Suicide is the third leading cause of death for people of the age 15 to 24. The concerning thing about this tying in with the overturnings two months ago is how the majority of people having abortions in the United States are in their 20s, according to the Guttmacher Institude, a research and policy whereforThoughwithbeingisrightssexualorganizationnon-governmentaimingtoimproveandreproductivehealthworldwide.Averytroublesomescenariothementalhealthofstudentsdrivendown,especiallythefallsemesterbeginning.thismaybemorestressfulpeoplewholiveinthestatestherehavebeenbanson

The screen app, developed by third-party company Ready Education, is now entirely pointless because it has students screening for COVID with no follow-through.

BY ASHTON NIEVES STAFF ANIEVESREPORTER@CCCLARION.COM

Now it feels like a paperweight that only some professors are enforcing. Without the backing of the COVID-19 testing, the daily screening feels like an optional questionnaire and not an accurate tracking unit.

With the overturning, federal protections for a woman’s right to access an abortion is now inaccessable. These laws regarding this matter have now been completely left up to the states, with 13 of them having trigger laws to come in place to banConsideringabortion. it has now been two months since its overruling, women in many states, predominantly in the south, have now found themselves in a position to have to travel far distances to seek medical attention for an abortion.

Half measures like screening with no testing are leaving students confused, and the implications of neglecting to screen are unknown now.“Ifeel like I’m going to get a notification that I haven’t been doing this (screening),” English student Jackie Garcia said. “I have not done the screening once and I feel like starting a month in is not worth my time, like it doesn’t do anything.”Iftheschool wants to make up its own guidelines like the daily screening app, it should be able to outfit and test for seasonal viruses like the flu.

that needs to be addressed and that is the executive decision made by the grand master of chicken sandwiches to order the Crispy Chicken sandwich from McDonald’s instead of the classic McChicken. That decision was made because the McChicken, although being the original, will not be a fair matchup against some of the later competition in this bracket such as the Popeyes Chicken Sandwich or the Chickfil-a Chicken Sandwich. Since the Crispy Chicken sandwich is not a deluxe version of the McChicken, It qualifies as its own competitor in this competition and gives McDonald’s a fair shot in the tournament.Withthatbeing said the McDonald’s Crispy Chicken sandwich did not fare, well in this matchupIntheindividual elements, The Cluck almost unanimously takes the cake, or the sandwich, in this

comparison.Bothcompetitors’ buns were almost identically delicious, both receiving an 8/10. The flavor of the Crispy Chicken’s bun was slightly more pronounced but was also slightly burnt, bringing the score down from a 9 to an 8. The Cluck’s bun was soft, evenly toasted and well constructed giving it a solid 8 for a tie in this category.

As for the chicken itself, the Clucks’ chicken was thick, juicy, evenly cooked and flavorful, earning a 9/10 for vastly exceeding my expectations. Unfortunately for the Crispy Chicken sandwich, the chicken was dry and overcooked, earning it a 6/10. A possible reason for this was the thinness of the Crispy Chicken’s patty, being almost half as thick as The Cluck’s chicken patty.

As for the sauce, the McDonald’s sandwich provided a mayonnaise sauce, which honestly tasted like absolutely nothing, for a score of 4/10. The Cluck’s sandwich came with a “Mystery” sauce that tasted smoky, sweet and spicy. It gave everything one could want in a fast food mystery sauce, earning a 9/10.

shined. The breading on The Clucks’ chicken served its purpose. It was thin, crispy and evenly coated, earning it a 8/10.

The McDonald’s breading was flavorful but a bit too thick, earning a 7/10.

Now for extra credit points, The Cluck deserves a chicken-to-bun ratio point as the bun was the exact size of the chicken patty, and the thickness of that chicken patty really allowed for the juiciness of the chicken to shine. The Cluck earns 2 extra credit points for size

Many students are looking forward to a hands-on learning experience, with the first field trip of the semester to the British Library having already taken place. There, students visited the treasures gallery. According to the British Library’s website, the gallery displays “some of the most significant illustrated books and manuscripts from English, European, and world history.” Housing documents from fragments of Beowulf to the personal letters of the Beatles, all students could find something in the collection to appreciate.“Iloved it. It was really cool to see historical documents and each one said who had donated it to the collection,” Stevenson said, “I only wish we had more time there, and I’m going to go back.”

The start of Citrus’ Study Abroad program also coincided with the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, whose reign spanned over 70 years. Many students became aware of the news while on the way to catch their flights.

“We got in a camera shot and some family back at home saw us on the TV,” said Rosales.

Citrus College students arrived safely in London on Sept. 9 and are settling in for a semester of learning both in and out of the classroom.

Freshman student Samuel Rosales went to Buckingham Palace with his roommate on Sept. 10 to join the crowds expressing a public outpouring of grief for the late monarch. An encounter with an MSNBC news crew there reporting live from the Palace led to an unexpected surprise.

Citrus psychology Professor Erin Tate said her past experience as a student studying abroad in London is guiding her aspirations for the semester.“London is a city that I love tremendously, and I am very excited to be back, especially during the midst of this historic change and time,” Tate said, “I’m really excited to watch the personal growth and

academic growth of my students while we’re here because I know how big of an impact being in a foreign country can have on you in terms of personal growth.”

Many Citrus students have plans to pay their respects to the late Queen Elizabeth II in person. One of these students is history major Emily Stevenson. “I want to study British and French monarchies, so to be at the funeral for a British monarch is huge because I can say I’ve witnessed a part of history,” she said.
