For most college freshmen, learning to embrace, and then remedy, the “starving college student” stereotype can be difficult. For vegetarians, the mission of going from hungry to full can sometimes seem downright impossible.
In order to aid practicing vegetarians in their hunt for the perfect meat-free meal, the Mustang Daily has accumulated a list of the best places and plates to get.
Though you now have the chance to gorge on burgers, candy and soda all you want since Mom and Dad aren’t around, your body may quickly regret its newly formed fat cells. Luckily, San Luis Obispo has many options for good food that’s not only tasty but also good for your health.
Going away to college means the end of home-cooked meals and well-stocked kitchens. It may be easy to fall into the Top Ramen routine, but with some searching, Cal Poly can offer many healthy options.
Without parents directly buying food, students have the option of eating healthy or not so healthy, said Nancy Williams, the director of Campus Dining.
Any student can be a elementary school teacher in three quarters of college.
Cal Poly professor Len Davidman on Aug. 30 will hold a meeting in Building 2, room 101 from 1:30 p.m. to 3 p.m., to discuss how any one student can begin an exciting career in teaching.
The Information Technology Service Department is making changes to the way students using laptops can access the internet on campus for the upcoming fall quarter.
Beginning Sept. 9, Cal Poly students will be able to easily access wireless networks throughout campus for the first time without having to register laptops through the ITS office.
In order to combat late-night double parking issues, the San Luis Obispo Police Department has designated taxi zones throughout the downtown area.
The new taxi zones are a way of ensuring the safety of both nighttime pedestrians and taxi drivers, according to police.
Some students enjoy road trips or relaxing family vacations over their summer break. But Cal Poly student Matt Ishler has a different idea of summer traveling.
Ishler, a kinesiology junior, skateboarded from San Luis Obispo to his hometown of Santa Monica in three days, a 230-mile-long journey.
For most of us, drinking a glass of milk is just that, sipping down milk. The in-depth thoughts about the milk and its contents never really cross the mind unless that mind belongs to professor Phil Tong.
Tong, director of the Dairy Products Technology Center, has been in the dairy industry for over 20 years, and some of his recent work has earned him an International Dairy Foods Association Research Award.
The Cal Poly Floral Design Team missed first place at the National Floral Design Competition in Washington, D.C. by only two points. The team beat out 11 other campuses for the second place honor.
“(The judges) picked the team with the highest average, and Mississippi was only two points above us,” Lynch said.
It’s a vicious cycle: Local businesses depend on students to buy their products and students depend on the businesses for income. But when gas prices go up and students go home for the summer, businesses are scrambling to fill the void.
Ed Dutton Jr. and his wife Ybonne Dutton didn’t want to raise their prices at Buck Wild on Foothill Boulevard, but they had no choice.
