Broken system, breaks students’ spirit

Recently, Del Mar College came up with a new system to allow students to easily access registration on the DMC website and allow students to register online more quickly than before by accessing just one page rather than multiple pages, as in the past. Unfortunately, this system is anything but perfect and is a total headache. One student reported that it took her three days just to find out from the Help Desk personnel that she needed to speak to her advisor because she had not been in school for a couple of years. After all the heartache the student went through to simply get to the login page, she received a very heated “hell no” and was sent back to square one, waiting in line for a long time and listening to the screaming children in line next to her.

Living your college life at home can be an interesting experience; you have your parents to help you in any they can. They help provide you with guidance, monetary aid, and an occasional criticism of your living conditions in your room. Full story

‘Earth Day’ should be every day not one day

Every year, holidays come and go. With each holiday, we tend to make promises to do better, and to create a lifestyle that befits the holiday. Although Earth Day is not a religious or political holiday, it falls under the days that we make a promise to do better for ourselves, our children and for the future. Like many people around the world, I try to make sure that I litter less or become more Earth-conscious. Full story
