Testing Testing...Tunk Tunk Tunk Hello?

This thing still working? Y'all dead or something? I miss Humboldt (in a very sick way). Does the logging trail still exist? Does the Jolly Giant still seve fried cheese? Were the 80's really that long ago? Has it stopped raining yet? C'mom people... I need news! WAKE UP!

Housing for Mellow Student with FULL FINANCIAL AIDE

Michael — Wed, 20 Dec 2006 23:48:05 GMT

To the Humboldt Community,

I’ll be arriving in Arcata January 11 and attending HSU starting January 16.

I HAVE FULL FINANCIAL AIDE.

I need a house that will allow me 4-7 days of grace period so I can move in and subsequently receive my funds.

About me: I’m 26, going for a BA in Theatre Arts…very mellow and flexible, love animals, and I’ve lived in cooperative housing for several years in Berkeley. I’ve cooked bomb meals, cleaned mad house, and lived in harmony with folks from all backgrounds.

Will someone take a sure-shot chance on me and offer me housing?

I’m grateful for your good faith.

Thanks,

Michael

Transferring to HSU & would love recommendations!

ninjaberry — Tue, 24 Oct 2006 04:01:36 GMT

Hi Fellow Humboldt Muffins,

First -- the fun stuff which can be asked of any HSU students & graduates:
would you recommend any extracurricular classes? how about specific teachers? Fencing, yoga, stilting, mask making, etc.. I'd love to take something fun/artistic/exercise related.

Second -- for english majors & minors:
i'm thinking about retaking a course in english theory (can be any course -- as long as its theory) & i'd really appreciate any recommendations as far as professors & courses go. I looked at the HSU schedule & to make it easier, here's what is being offered with theory officially in the title (as i don't have a catalogue, i cannot find out what officially counts as as theory course):

ENGL 406 - Theory of Composition with Stacey, David E.
ENGL 406 L Technology in English with Stacey, David E
ENGL 420 Critical Theory with Creadon, Mary A.

If you know of anything else that counts as an upper division english theory course that is being offered in the spring, i'd be so happy if you could share any thoughts & knowledge with me. I'm planning on speaking to my dean & the dean of liberal arts at HSU as well, but if there's someone very helpful in the department, i'd appreciate a referrral. Sometimes departments can be a wee bit difficult to navigate.

Thanks again!
~Mary Bee

Speak Out - Local Rape, Sexual Assault and Sexual Violence

cerulean_moon — Sun, 16 Apr 2006 04:25:48 GMT

Hopefully you have heard a lot about sexual violence during the past couple of weeks. For most, this was probably due to the recently publicized rape at HSU or Take Back the Night activities. Other friends of mine have recently been accosted by individuals spewing sexual slander or had those close to them experience the most common types of rape – those by perpetrators who are known by their victims. Unlike allusion of the comments made by the Vice President of Student Affairs in response to the recent knife-wielding stranger rape, one category of rape is not better or worse than another – rape is rape.

Rape is also not a once in a great while occurrence in Humboldt County. It is the silence about these frequently occurring rapes that allows women to continue to feel both victimized and alone. Women who are raped by people they know often deal with victimization not only of their person, but also in their extended emotional and relational interactions. They are also more likely to feel like it was their fault, or that they could’ve done something to prevent it.

If you have a story to share, anonymously or otherwise, about yourself or someone close to you who has experienced sexual violence, I urge you to do so here or in another public arena where you feel comfortable. Hearing the stories of other women and seeing the common threads that run through them helped me to deal with emotions associated with rape and to see that my victimization was not rare and was not my fault. Men, please feel free to post your stories as well. Thanks for sharing: Silence perpetuates violence and victimization.

700,000 women are raped and/or sexually assaulted in the US each year – that is over 50 million during the lifespan of the average American. Unless you live in a bubble, you know many female victims of sexual violence.

Local Stats:
2,096 – Number of first-time callers to the North Coast Rape Crisis Team last year
1 in 12 – Men claim to have raped a woman
5% (or less) – Rape survivors who report the rape
84% - of rape victims know their attackers
1 in 4 – the number of women who will be raped in her lifetime
3,000 – number of call made last year to Humboldt Domestic Violence Services from abuse victims

HSU Orientation and Shelter

Michael — Thu, 30 Jun 2005 00:40:25 GMT

To the Tribe –

I’ll be going to HSU for their orientation from Friday 7/8 until Sunday 7/10. They have a masters program in social work that I’ve been checking out (I’m graduating Cal this summer) and it feels like the best fit. The faculty returns emails THE SAME DAY, which is unheard of at other schools. Plus, two weeks ago was my first visit to Arcata and I LOVED IT. The nature, the mellowness, the more intimate community… Never before have I met so many friendly folk that strike up conversations on the street.

So next weekend I have the option of staying in the student dorms for $62/night. They provide meals and linens and all the amenities which I don’t need and can’t afford. I'd much rather camp out on the quad.

Does anyone know of a student cooperative house in the area that would let me stay in exchange for work/cooking/cleaning and a fair donation? I’ve been living in the University Students Cooperative Association for the past 4 years and my last home was Lothlorien (the vegetarian naked one).

Also, somebody on the Greyhound mentioned The Endeavor to shower, eat, and do laundry. Are there any other places for travelers/vagabonds/prospective HSU students on a budget?

I’m grateful for the help.

Michael
