Welcome

back, poets

August 18, 2023 The voice of WhiTTier college since 1914 Volume 22 — Issue 1 SAGE AMDAHL / QUAKER CAMPUS

A New QC: A Letter from the Editors

Another year is upon us Poets, and The Quaker Campus has got your back! The QC is excited to be the voice of the Whittier College community; once again representing its concerns, frustrations, and hopes.

The last year has been tumultuous for many. With the cancellation of three athletic programs, changes in leadership, and the cafeteria workers’ strike, many

felt anxious about the state of the College. But the QC is proud to have been an outlet for the people of Whittier with our extensive coverage of all three topics– and much, much more! And we hope that this will continue for the upcoming year, exceeding your expectations of what a college newspaper can do. However, if you notice any gaps in our reporting, please let us know at qc@ poets.whittier.edu . Our main duty is to represent you. We are excited to introduce variety to your reading experience. Keeping up with a consistent bi-weekly printing sched-

ule along with regular uploads to our Medium page (and soon to be updated website) we will be adding a plethora of new columns to the paper, ranging from advice, local restaurant reviews, and recommendations from our own staff. We will also be keeping an updated list of the upcoming campus events and sports games happening. Alongside our newspaper, we are working on future collaborations with our friends over at KPOET and the Video Production Studios

The Quaker Campus prides itself on being made entirely of Whittier College students. Our

Editor-in-Chief is fourthyear English and Film student, Emily Henderson. She joined the QC in the Fall of 2021, and is excited to make the paper the best it can be. She is also the President of Media Council and Vice President of the English Honors Society Sigma Tau Delta. She also was the Editor-in-Chief of the annual literary publication–The Greenleaf Review– last year. Her future plans consist of working as a television or film writer, or working in the entertainment journalism industry.

The Deputy Editor this year is fourth-year Psychology major and Business minor Alissa Portillo. She is currently interning at the Center of Career and Professional Development, and is a part of the Honors Psychology Society Psi Chi. Her future plans include taking a year or two off to work full time and potentially move out of state, then in time pursue a graduate program. She eventually wants to work in adolescent theory and pursue her own practice.

The Managing Editor this year is fourth-year Graphic Design and History student Sage Amdahl. She has been working at the Quaker Campus as a

Photos Editor and Graphic Designer since the pandemic year of 2020. Her future plans include studying abroad this Fall Semester in England and returning to campus for spring semester! But, ultimately she plans to enter a graduate program in the future and pursue professorship.

But above anything else, we are making a promise to the College community. We promise to represent you. We are independent of Whittier College, and we plan to stay that way. The Quaker Campus is celebrating 110 years, and we want to keep the tradition of serving the community alive. We want to make sure the voice of change can be heard here at Whittier College.

If you like the promises we are making, and want to be a part of the action, consider joining The Quaker Campus! Email us at qc@poets.whittier.edu , and we will get back to you.

We are excited for a new year Poets! And we are excited to have you all join us on the journey!

Thank you.

Tips from the QC Team!

Entering the college experience can be scary. We have all been there at some point and we understand that you may want advice from students on campus! To help you out, our staff members want to share with you some handy tips on surviving Whittier!

Emily Henderson

(Editor-in-Chief & Features Editor)

“Get involved early. Don’t wait until your senior year to join a club or an organization. Join one today!”

Alissa Portillo

(Deputy Editor & Opinions Editor & Social Media Manager)

“Don’t forget to live a little! Yes, classes and grades are important but your mental health matters more…so get out of your dorm or home and enjoy life with others!”

Sage Amdahl (Managing

Editor)

“Try the curly fries at the Spot (located on the second floor of the Campus Center next to the Student Lounge), they are incredible! Also buy ant traps the second you move into your dorm. I would recommend buying Windex as it kills ants and is cheapter than bug spray. Lastly, take advantage of open swim days in the pool!”

Sarah Licon (News Editor)

“Really get involved with something you’re passionate about. You’ll be able to surround yourself with like-minded people and it will brighten your college experience. Also beware of power outages on campus, they are frequent.”

Meylina Tran (Campus Life Editor)

“Don’t use the elevator in the Science and Learning Center (SLC) because the chances of it breaking down while you’re in it are not zero.”

Julia Centeno (Art & Photos Editor)

“Join clubs! It’s the easiest way to make friends - you already have something in common!”

Sean Frank (Staff Writer)

“Don’t neglect your relationships with your professors. They are interesting individuals, potential mentors, and

can possibly provide you with professional opportunities.”

Matt Enriquez (Staff Writer)

“It’s best to talk to and meet faculty and advisors, they are your best friends and they will help you find/meet the goal you are hoping to achieve. They really do want what’s best for you.”

Alejandra Ortega (Staff Writer)

“My best tip for surviving Whittier is to take advantage of the Poet Pantry for a quick snack! It’s totally free!”

We hope these tips are helpful for you Poets!

Live Life, Don’t Let College Kill You

Undoubtedly, the college experience brings high stress as students learn to manage their school life, which is fueled by studying, classes almost daily, and heavy exams. Unfortunately, students as a result, are prone to developing mental health disorders. And if a student has already been pre-diagnosed with a mental health disorder, they may find themselves struggling even more.

The National Library of Medicine conducted research that surveyed college students and their levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. It was found that the frequency of depression among university students was 75 percent, 88.4 percent for anxiety, and 84.4 percent for stress. It is not surprising that these percentages are high given the struggles that college students endure trying to maintain their GPA, friendships, financial stability, and more. Some causes of student stress include, “increased responsibilities, a lack of good time management, changes in eating and sleeping habits, and not taking enough breaks for self-care.” This makes sense especially for incoming freshmen as they transition from high school and embark on a new campus with new people. It is also noted that first-year students who leave their homes and reside on campus tend to experience “Feelings of depression, isolation, homesickness, and loneliness…. Research shows that as many as 75 percent of college freshmen reported feelings of loneliness their first two weeks of school.” Like a domino effect, “Loneliness can lead to depression, which can hinder a student’s chance to

excel in the classroom.”

There are several reasons why students must learn to manage their school, work, and personal life. It is relatively easier said than done but as I entered my first year at Whittier during COVID-19, I stayed awake to study and complete assignments until 3 A.M. due to poor time management and changes in my food and sleep schedule. I would prioritize my school work and felt I had no time to complete all that I needed and could not afford to have a life outside of school. My mental health took a major toll as a result.

But, what if I told you that I am now on a path to graduating a semester early by putting my mental health first and then schoolwork second? See, after many trials and errors with learning and unlearning my priorities, I realized that mental health and self-care go a long way to achieving my greatest.

With much happiness, I am proud to say that I do not stay up past 1 A.M. to study; I eat meals that fuel me with energy instead of binge and stress eating. I workout and practice yoga along with meditation, go enjoy a weekend with loved ones, and (when needed) I skip a class to rest my brain. I do this while managing coursework and my multiple jobs. It is all possible.

But, there are tips I use to help prioritize my mental health. First thing’s first, quality sleep is crucial for great performance when awake. Recent studies have shown that “adequate sleep is essential to feeling awake and alert, maintaining good health and working at peak performance…After two weeks of sleeping six hours or less a night, students feel as bad and perform as poorly as someone who has gone without sleep for 48 hours.” I can confirm this to be true. As I expressed earlier, I would stay awake until 3 A.M. to

study and cram writing papers which affected my ability to remain aware and present during lectures, leading to poor memorization skills. The effects of poor sleep and memory are highlighted with new research which states, that “students getting adequate amounts of sleep performed better on memory and motor tasks than did students deprived of sleep.” It is recommended that students sleep for an average of seven to nine hours per night and the hours vary per person.

With longer hours of sleep comes the need to manage your time wisely. It is important to plan your day or week ahead of time depending on your top priorities, like spending more time on a paper or studying for an exam– versus spending time completing an assignment that is not due that week. It is also important to learn what time during the day you are most productive for studying and completing assignments.

Some students attend classes in the day then have long shifts and find themselves only studying at night. Meanwhile, others may have more flexibility to study both in the morning and at night. Experiment with different days and times to study and see which works best for you!

Next, wellness and self-care aid in reducing stress. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention explains the importance of physical activity, as it helps, “...improve your brain health, help manage weight, reduce the risk of disease, strengthen bones and muscles, and improve your ability to do everyday activities.” Whether you decide to join a gym, engage in pilates, go on runs, practice yoga, or are part of a sports team, the physical benefits can strengthen your brain activity and allow you to approach your lectures or studying sessions with a fresh perspective.

While physical activity can act as a form of self-care, taking a day or two off to do nothing is also a form of selfcare! Engaging in any activity that can reduce your stress is something that should be prioritized to achieve better success with your courses and mental health.

Lastly, I will be the one to advise you to go live life! Yes, your grades, GPA, sports team, and assignments are important. But, college does not need to take over your whole life or identity. Build friendships and create memories with those around you and with loved ones! Your assignments will still be there awaiting your return but, if you learn early on what works best for you and to manage your time, you will not feel guilty for choosing to go out or stay in and just have fun! Have a great year, Poets!

Neon-colored art, Reggaeton, and Banda music to sing along and dance to, and drinks, drinks, drinks! Oh, and Mexican and seafood dining dishes!

Already intrigued? You can find this wonderful ambiance and more at the King and Queen Cantina.

King and Queen Cantina is owned by Jorge Cueva who is commonly known as “Mr. Tempo”. Think of Cueva as the ultimate father of King and Queen Cantina. Cueva is an entrepreneur and restaurateur developing multiple King and Queen locations throughout the Los Angeles and San Diego areas, with more openings in the future. You might be wondering: why am I highlighting the restaurant now? Well, Mr. Tempo has opened a new location here in Whittier at the corner of Penn Street and Painter Avenue. Simply put, it is just at the corner on the next block!

On Friday, July 28th, Mr. Tempo and King and Queen Cantina posted on their Instagram the exciting announcement regarding the opening of their new Whittier location inviting people to, “...come try our mezcal, our tequila…we hope to see you guys all here. The party’s gonna start! Mas chingón!” They posted a follow-up invitation on Saturday, July 29th, where a worker excitedly announces in Spanish

(which is translated to English), “Hey what’s up! We’re open! Come to Whittier. Here you will find your boyfriend, girlfriend, margaritas, and everything you can think of! Come and enjoy!”

As you can tell King and Queen Cantina continue to highlight their drinks for a fun time. But if you are not 21 years old, you can still enjoy a night out with friends and visit the restaurant to enjoy their dining dishes! Their menu is a mix -

you can sit in a space that is full of neon colors, and loud Reggaeton and Banda music to sing and dance to! If you have visited any Kalaveras location you will notice a similar atmosphere that is enjoyable.

Now, if you are new to campus/ new to the city of Whittier, Penn Street has residency homes on one side and a police station on the other side of Painter Avenue. Returning students are aware of how awful parking is on Penn Street, which results

busy nights this raises the question as to whether people who seek to visit the restaurant will attempt to park on campus in the Campus Inn (CI) Parking Lot which is located, off the corner of Earlham Drive and Painter Avenue. The CI Parking lot is strictly used for student and faculty parking, yet it is the most accessible for people to use at night to park sneakily if they wish to visit the restaurant.

The new restaurant offers

ture of Mexican and Seafood plates. One interesting platter choice that you do not see often is their Hot Cheeto taco which consists of flour tortilla filled asada and is topped with Flamin Hot Cheeto crumbles, pico chipotle aioli, lime crema and more. However, there are many other dishes you can find to eat on their menu. Not only can you enjoy their food but

in limited parking. Another area where you can park that is within walking distance of the corner, however, also has limited street parking– this being in front of Hoover Hall. With all this in mind, this means that sadly, the parking available around the new restaurant is horrifying. The restaurant does have a small parking lot behind their building however, for

of the Department of Campus Safety has expressed that Campus Safety is aware of the new opening of the restaurant, and when asked if they would enforce more parking patrol or security as a result he expressed that, “the College will be ordering additional signage [and] increase patrols to ensure we enforce our parking policies. Our hope is that the establish -

ment management communicates this to their customers, and we are able to have a line of communication similar to the California Grill.” The California Grill is a modern Californian restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The Grill is located on the corner of Painter Avenue and Philadelphia Street which is across the street from the Ruth B. Shannon Center for Performing Arts on campus.

Padilla states that they have “not observed any spillover from the establishment”, and have “ reached out to the management and are awaiting a response.” For now, we can just hope that Campus Safety and the College will put further measurements needed should they not receive a response back from King and Queen Cantina.

If you should witness a driver park in the CI Lot and walk towards the restaurant inform Campus Safety through their main line, 562.907.4211. With this restaurant also comes people drinking. Remember to drive safely when returning back to your dorms and if you know you will be drinking do not drink and drive. Furthermore, if you feel unsafe, contact Campus Safety’s emergency line at 562.907.4911.

Nevertheless, you can experience nights you will always remember (or if you drink too much you might just forget!) Enjoy your days or nights with lively music, good food, and great drinks! Like they say at the Cantina, Mas Chingón!

New Cantina Brings Royalty to Uptown Recommendations Around Uptown

Finding good, affordable food within reasonable proximity to campus is the tantalizing dream of incoming college students everywhere. If Yelp doesn’t prove helpful, look no further because I’ll give you the complete guide to restaurants in Uptown Whittier fitting for a hungry Poet, all within a 15 minute walking distance from campus. Let’s go eat!

Mimo’s Cafe

Balling on a budget? Mimo’s Cafe on Greenleaf Avenue is the perfect cheap, fast, and filling place. They have a variety of food, including stereotypical American breakfasts, sandwiches, Mexican cuisine, burgers, and coffee. They are open from 8 A.M. to 7 P.M. everyday., And don’t forget to bring your student ID for a Poet discount!

Hungover and hungry? Crepes and Grapes can feed you the most incredible breakfast and lunch for under 20 dollars. With a Parisian theme, Crepes and Grapes is the perfect brunch spot for anyone craving a delicious, filling meal. I suggest getting their Eggs Florentine and the Fig and Brie Sandwich, both of which have been my go-to Sunday morning eats for the past year. It’s a popular brunch spot, so get there early, because the wait can get long by noon, and they close at 3 P.M.!

La Monarca

Thirsty and tired? La Monarca has the cheapest lattes in Uptown, with “the sweet flavor of Mexico” mixed in. Don’t miss out on their delicious pastries, made fresh every day. As a non-dairy milk lover, I love any business that keeps the alternative milk price small, and La Monarca is the only coffee shop in Uptown with only a 50 cent upcharge. Honorable mentions are the Oatchata Cold Brew

(add one pump of vanilla for some extra flavor) and the Cajeta Croissant. Delicious!

Bark Coffee

Of course, we can’t forget the other local coffee shops located in Uptown. Bark Coffee is the closest to Whittier College campus, with adorable coffee cups and a beautiful, peaceful interior. Feel free to mosy on in with your laptop, wallet, and headphones to crank out some school work while enjoying a fresh cup of coffee.

Chillin’

While we’re on the topic of beverages, the most popular bubble tea spot in Uptown Whittier is none other than the cult favorite Chillin’. With an assortment of milk teas, smoothies, sweets, and accessories, Chillin’ has successfully made themselves the go-to place for a sugary fix. Open from noon to 10 P.M. everyday, Chillin’ is the perfect spot for some boba.

Tacos N Miches

Circling back to food, the options are endless, so we’ll condense them a bit. Tacos N Miches is arguably the best Mexican joint in Uptown, with great prices and even better food. Their carne asada fries never miss, and neither do their burritos.

La Sexy Michelada

However, if you’re looking for a late night meal, La Sexy Michelada is going to be your go-to. Open until 1 A.M. Friday and Saturday and 12 A.M. Sunday through Thursday, La Sexy Michelada is a bit pricier but great for satisfying undeniable cravings.

RustyTheMonk

If you’re searching for gastropub food, look no further than The Rusty Monk. With a “distressed industrial” in -

terior, The Rusty Monk provides excellent atmosphere and food. Honorable mention goes out to their fries and Monk Grilled Cheese.

Guildhall

If you’re 21 years or older, or simply a big fan of games and soda, then Guildhall is for you. With a plethora of board games, bar food, and alcoholic beverages, Guildhall is a great spot to nerd out with your friends.

Winchells

Finally, my last mention is the ultimate drunk-collegekid spot, Winchells. Open 24/7, Winchells has a variety of pastries like donuts, croissants, and muffins, as well as savory foods like sandwiches, bagel breakfasts, and wraps. It is the ultimate 3 A.M. food spot.

There are tons of great food options around Uptown Whittier for every college student! Happy eating!
