The day was planned specifically to bring awareness to issues surrounding education in light of this fall's midterm election season. CSUSM held its own rally in defense of public education during U-hour in the free speech plaza. As students gathered for the event, protest-themed music was played over loudspeakers to inspire emotion and unrest. Students were served free pizza and heard speeches from CSUSM Student Body President Susana Figueroa, CSUSM professor Heidi Breuer, and California State University Employees Union CSUSM Chapter President Mike Geek. The microphone was then open for students at the rally to come and share their opinions. Figueroa appealed to her fellow students in her speech, reminding them that they have a responsibility to hold state leaders accountable for the promises they make. Students can make a difference and form a legacy by choosing to step up and vote. "As college students, we are often devalued although we work so hard for our education," she said. "Voting is so easy to do—investigating the issues is the hardest part, but also the most essential." Breuer opened her speech by mentioning the millions of dollars in federal stimulus funds that were recently granted to the UC and CSU systems and pointing out that professors are no longer complaining about furlough days. "It may seem like everything is fine now," she said to the students, "but all is not good!" She compared the present state of public education to the eye of a hurricane. "We are in the eye of our storm, the storm of public education. We are in the middle of a huge attack. .. the chaos is coming." Breuer said that the most pressing issue in the IILIZE coming elec- tion is whether education should be a privilege, privatized so that only those with money can attend school, or a right. "Education doesn't just benefit you, it benefits the entire community," she said, "so tell a friend, register to vote, and go vote in the Nov. election!"

California politicians made repeated drastic cuts to the CSU educational system budget for many years. Recently, Governor Schwarzenegger proposed restoring $305 million to the CSU system. If the California legislature enacts the proposed budget, there will be a new influx of students attending CSUSM this Januaiy. Last year, over 17,000 prospective students applied for enrollment in CSUSM during the priority-filing period. This statistic was up 22 percent from student applications for the fall 2009 semester. According to official school statistics, the number of transfer applicants has increased 48 percent compared to the transfer applicant rate from fall 2009. CSUSM is only welcoming certain students for spring 2011. The first students to be admitted will come from local community colleges such as Palomar College, Mount San Jacinto College (MSJC), and MiraCosta College. Students transferring from the community colleges must be ready to start their upper division coursework. Prospective students should have . consecutively attended Palomar, MSJC or MiraCosta before applying to CSUSM. Students looking to be readmitted into CSUSM also have first priority admissions status. International or foreign exchange students are also allowed to apply for the spring 2 0tl semester. Students from countries outside the United States need a valid F1 visa to be considered for admission. CSUSM will not receive students aspiring to accomplish a second bachelor's degree. They will also not be accepting first time freshmen or lower division applicants. CSUSM will know how many transfer students they can afford to accept after the California education budget is finalized. Therefore, offers of admission into CSUSM will not be dispatched immediately. If students are not accepted for spring 2011, they have two options for the fate of their applications. Transfer or international students may use the spring 2011 applications for the prospect of getting in during fall 2011, or they may request to have their applications rescinded and their money returned to their pockets. The deadline for transcripts to be delivered to academic admission is this Friday, Oct. 15.

"We will either repair what's wrong in the state and move it in the right direction with Jerry Brown, or follow [opposing candidate] Meg Whitman into an abyss, widening the gap between rich and poor, leaving students without education and heading towards a bleak future." One student got up to speak, wanting to present a bipartisan view of the issues facing higher education. He spoke positively of California Governor 2010 candidate Meg Whitman, citing her plan to give PHOTO COURTESY OF CSUSM.EDU billions of dollars back to the CSU system and completely reform the budget, devoting recovered funds to education. Whether college students decide to vote for Whitman or Brown, the overall goal of the Day to Defend Public Education was to inspire people to research the issues facing the public education system and realizes how their vote can help change state policies to change California's schools for the better.

PHOTO PROVIDED BY CHRIS GIANCAMILLI The college survival guide Roomates 101: c ommunication, cleanliness, a nd c onsideration BY DEVONNE EDORA PRIDE STAFF WRITER Fall semester is kicking into high gear. Our college years have begun and many new and different experiences are yet to come. Do you live in the University Village Apartments (UVA) or off-campus housing? Then there is high chance that at some point you will be living with roommates. Having a roommate is a big responsibility, filled with challenges and disagreements. Yet it can also be a great and rewarding adventure. So listen up and take notes, Cougars. Next time "roomie" issues come up, remind yourself of these helpful tips. #1 Communication is essential. Whether you're living with friends or not, being able to talk and communicate openly provides an honest environment. Things can be great in the beginning, but can get ugly really fast. Make sure to address any issues right away. Roommates who reach a mutual understanding of each other's needs are able to form better relationships. Brian Dawson, housing director at UVA, encourages students to "walk in each other's shoes," when people come to college. "All they know is what they've lived at home, so everyone has different routines." Living with roommates isn't easy, but try to be openminded about each other to avoid any future conflicts. #2 Figure out what is "clean." Everyone grew up in various types of households. Having spilt oatmeal on the counter might be considered spotless to some, but filthy to others. Discuss with one another what "cleanliness" means to each person. Does the carpet need to be vacuumed once a week or once a month? If necessary, come up with a chore list. Just make sure everyone participates. Defining what cleanliness means will greatly reduce any problems and and Post-It notes saying, "Whose dishes are these?" #3 Be considerate. Try to be aware of each other's lifestyles and values. Coming to college places students in unfamiliar places, so being polite to others can go a long way. "People need to lower their expectations for what the other person is doing, and to raise their expectations for themselves," advises Dawson. Chances are some roommates will be blaring Lil' Wayne through paper-thin walls. Some will always bring guests over (especially when you're studying). Some will be coming home at the wee hours of the morning, waking everyone up five hours earlier than they need to. No matter how irritating all that can be, have respect for your roommates. You need to be willing to listen and receptive to change. Figure out a policy on study schedules, noise levels, and privacy. In this way, it is helpful to see what everyone agrees on and eases the living situation. Handling these issues in an adult manner is a great skill that proves to be useful even beyond college. Be patient and respectful to your roommates. Students should be stressing about 10 page papers, not unwashed dishes. Don't expect to become best friends, but implementing these tips can at least open that up as a possibility.

When Sheri Jennum talks about passion, you can feel it. Jennum, the new women's basketball coach, gestures emphatically, explaining how much she loves her well-lit office, how excited she is to be on the CSUSM campus, and why she has been so successful in other positions. "When it comes to [basketball], I am extremely competitive—it's about having passion." When you look at her story, you understand. Jennum has never been anything but a winner. She's a member of the Napa High School hall of fame, once leading Napa High to a Bay Valley Conference championship. At Fullerton College, she was the Most Valuable Player of the Southern California Tournament after an undefeated season. After transferring to Cai Poly Pomona, she lead the 1985 team to an NCAA Division II championship, earning all-tournament team honors. Her coaching history is no different. She enjoyed success at several assistant and head coaching jobs at various levels before leaving the sport in 2000 to become a lawyer. Men's golf finishes 9th in first tournament of fall But the taste for money and security only lasts for so long when you love the game like Jennum. In 2004, she accepted an assistant job at her Community College Alma Mater, Fullerton. A year later she moved on to an assistant job across town from CSUSM at Palomar College, where she became the head coach full-time in 2007. Over the last three years, her teams compiled a record of 74-18, with an astonishing record in the Pacific Coast Conference of 40-2. It is no wonder the administration chose Jennum to lead the Lady Cougars. Jennum said the feeling was mutual. "I've had my eye on the [CSUSM athletic] program for a long time," she said, "and it was exciting when the soccer, softball and baseball teams got started." When it's built, the new CSUSM basketball and volleyball arena will be visible from Jennum's office window. But as she gazes at the spot, she notes that it probably won't be built for "as we understand it at least a year, if not two." When asked about the possibility of the Cougars playing home games in the Dome at Palomar College, Jennum almost seems to have not considered the significance of coaching at her old stomping grounds. My main focus is on day to day use, on practice sites...but if [Palomar] will have us, I 'm more than happy to play anywhere." Once the first season begins in 2011, will the women's team play any games on the same night as the men, as is traditional in established programs? Jennum isn't sure. "It's tough to schedule doubleheaders as an independent. [The Cougars will compete as an NAIA independent . in 2011.] Teams don't want to play you in January or February, because they don't want to play outside their conference. And it's difficult without a home site. But I have been talking with [Men's coach] Jim [Saia] about it, and we'd like to. I know it's exciting for the fans." Jennum mentions her focus on graduation with academic success and community service. She also knows Cougar fans expect winning. There's plenty of pressure, and she'sfinewith it. She recites a quote by tennis legend Billy Jean King: "Pressure is privilege." "I believe that." she said with a nod. "Because when you are under pressure, you've put yourself in a situation where you can win...our first year, we're going for a championship." ' "There's s ome talk about that, about a c ouple other s ites.

Competing in afieldwith eight NCAA teams, the Cougars stayed competitive with a three-round total of 921. The tournament was won by the host school's "B" team, who shot 865 to defeat the "A" team by two strokes. Leading the way for the Cougars was Robert Nicanor, who got his season off to a fantastic start. Nicanor shot 74 on Tuesday after rounds of 74 and 77 on Monday, giving him a three-round total of 225, good for 25th place. Not far behind was sophomore Adam Loran, who tied for 31st with a score of 229. He shot rounds of 73, 77, and 79. Kevin Rubyfinishedoff a solid performance in his first tournament as a Cougar, shooting 7580-79 to tie for 38th with a score of 234.

CSUSM will be back in action on October 2526 at CSU Northridge. CSUSM women's soccer ended their goal-scoring drought today, earning a 6-0 victory over Soka University. The lady Cougars, who had not played a game in two weeks, dominated in the attack taking 30 shots and putting 13 on goal. #16-ranked CSUSM improves to 5-1-5 this season. Soka is currently 2-8-1. The Cougars controlled possession of the game, and maintained a solid back line that did not allow Soka any opportunities. CSUSM played an offensive game, creating numerous chances on net. CSUSM controlled play from the kickoff, but were unable to finish a chance until late in the first half. The first goal of the game came in the 41st minute from Arielle Cohen, who received a pass from Shannon Cox and fired a shot to the back of the net from 25 yards out. But once the secondhalf began, CSUSM opened the floodgates.

The #16-ranked Cougars improve to 6-1-5 on the season. Chapman, a member of NCAA Division HI, drops to 7-4. CSUSM came out absolutely onfireon Saturday, and the team's first 20 minutes was very likely the best stretch of soccer that the home fans have seen this season. The Cougars got to every loose ball, won every 50/50 chance, and played with a tenacity that overwhelmed their opponent. As the team has learned this season though, it's one thing to dominate play, but it takes something else to translate that into goals. Today the Cougars did just that, thanks largely to Johnson. In thE ninth minute, Taylor Schurman, who was among the many Cougars that had a fantastic game, hit a dangerous ball into the box. It ricocheted off the crossbar, and was eventually poked home by Johnson to put CSUSM up 1-0. Not long after, Schurman once again carried the ball down the right flank, hitting another excellent cross into the box. This time it found Johnson cleanly, who crushed a shot into the back of the net to make it 2-0. Johnson wasted little time in making it a hat trick - the first of the season for CSUSM - taking advantage of a Taylor Ziencina cross and punching it home to make it 3-0. That would end the first half scoring, and Chapman came out with renewed motivation in the second half, controlling play for a stretch that result- ed in a goal by Aimee Evans. But CSUSM would regain control and put the contest away late. In the 71st minute, Ziencina and Breanna Brenton combined for a corner kick goal for the second straight game, with Brenton using her height and aerial skills to get a clean header off past the Chapman keeper. And finally, with just 16 seconds left to play, Kelsey Gunion hit a nice through ball that found Arielle Cohen, who •dribbled in one-on-one with the keeper and slid it by for her third goal in two games. Since a two-week mid-season break, CSUSM has now scored 11 goals in its two games. Prior to that, the Cougars had scored 3 goals in their previous 6 matches. The Cougars will be back in action this Wednesday at San Diego Christian.

CSUSM improves to 6-22 on the season. Soka drops to 7-5. Both teams' records also benefitted from the recent decision of #5-ranked Vanguard University to forfeit its first six games of the season. Playing in front of the loud home crowd on Thursday, the Cougars controlled play from the opening whistle, not allowing a single shot while tallying 28 of their own and putting 12 on net. Kevin Ernst earned the shutout in net for CSUSM, with a huge assist from his midfield and back line, who were stout for all 90 minutes. The Cougars wasted little time shaking off the rust, taking a 1-0 lead in the second minute. Max Blumenshine played a long ball behind the defense, and Warren Ashcroft ran under it and drove a solid strike past the keeper and into the roof of the net. That score would persist through the first half, before CSUSM added the clincher early in the second. In the 60th minute, Jordan Shadeed collected a ball in the attacking zone, and dribbled his way around defenders to the side of the net. Shooting from a sharp angle, Shadeed hit a rocket into the back of the net to put his team up 2-0 and ultimately finish the game. CSUSM will be back in action at San Diego Christian this Wednesday. �C S U S M THEATER PREVIEW: CHELA, A CTOS, A ND A THEATER FEST HEAT U P THE HOLIDAYS O N CAMPUS BY JENNA JAUREGUI DIGITAL MEDIA MANAGER The theater department at CSUSM is hard at work preparing for its upcoming productions, anticipating an exciting semester of fresh, original performances. Keeping with CSUSM's celebration of cultural diversity, many of the productions contain a multicultural point of view—exploring the adversity and achievements of Hispanic culture. "Given the mounting anti-immigrant propaganda now being felt by many of Hispanic descent, this is a time to bring theatre of consciousness to the public," Visual and Performing Arts professor Marcos Martinez said of the upcoming shows. •"As the premier educational institution in North County, CSUSM is taking the lead in offering theatre that speaks to issues affecting our community and our region." The two main performances this fall are "Chela," a one-woman show by comedienne/actress Dulce Maria Solis, and "Actos," a collection of satirical one-act plays by renowned director/playwright/ social rights activist Luis Valdez. "Chela" is a biographical performance that tells the poignant true story of a young Mexican woman and the shocking challenges she faces as an immigrant trapped in a loveless marriage, struggling to regain her sexuality. Performed and written by CSUSM theater alumnus and rising actress Dulce Maria Solis, this inspiring production is based on the life of Solis's own mother. Its powerful messages are laced with comedy and sorrow, culminating in a captivating, emotional narrative. "Actos" portrays the identity struggle, psychological trauma, and abuse endured by Mexican-American farmworkers. The production is based on Valdez's experiences with migrant workers when he joined Cesar Chavez in his efforts to educate and organize farmworkers in the 1960s. Shown through a satirical lens, these short sketches use bits of humor to illuminate powerful social and political critique. Known as "the father of Chicano theatre in the United States," Luis Valdez is renowned for his work in Hollywood whose credits include the movies "La Bamba" and "Zoot Suit." Come December, the theater department will host a student festival of plays and per- formances written and acted entirely by CSUSM students. Theater student Tricia Bowen said the plays are "so funny... it's a great chance to support your friends and peers, and see some really entertaining shows." The student festival includes a monologue festival, and a play festival. The p lay festival will feature two one-act plays written by students from last semester's play and screenwriting class— "Just Passing Through" by Matt Chewiwie and "The Overnights" by Samantha Carr—and a capstone project by graduating theater/VPA major Mary Relator, titled "S-t-a-u-n-c-h Women"— a cabaret-style show portraying iconic, fictional, and historical women and the issues they face. For more information about upcoming theater events at CSUSM or for advanced reservations, call (760) 750-4137 or visit http://www.csusm. edu/vpa/art-e vents/index .html. If you are looking for some culture, entertainment, and thoughtprovoking drama, mark your calendars and support your fellow students.

The festival first got its start in 2000 at the University of San Diego, and since has grown into an event that has highlighted and honored over 1,000 independent films from all over the world. Taking place in Mission Valley at the Hazard Center UltraStar Cinema (7510 Hazard Center Drive, San Diego), this year's festival will include over 140 movie screenings from 20 different countries, and will be attended by over 100 filmmakers and actors, including John Cho ("Harold and Kumar" and "Star Trek"), Danny Pudi ("Community"), Ellen Wong ("Scott Pilgrim VS The World"), and Daniel Dae Kim ("Lost"). With panels, workshops, live music, and the opportunity to meet filmmakers, The San Diego Asian Film Festival is the perfect chance for you to be adventurous and see some films that maybe you wouldn't normally try out. Kicking off the festival will be the West Coast premiere of the ambitious martial arts film "Legend of the Fist," by filmmaker Andrew Lau. Set during the Second Sino-Japanese War, it is a story of vengeance and resistance, displaying a dynamic visual style and incredible martial arts. Closing the festival is the romantic comedy "Au Revoir Taipei," written and directed by Arvin Chen. Spanning just one night, it tells the story of Kai and Susie as they find excitement (including an Asian Four Tops cover band) and love together in Taipei. Produced by Wim Wenders ("Wings of Desire"), "Au Revoir Taipei" promises to be the perfect ending of what is surer to be an amazing festival. Currently tickets in packs of four ($34) and ten ($86) can be purchased online at www.sdaff. org, and starting Oct. 19, tickets can be bought at the Mission Valley UltraStar theater's box office. There are many perks of buying your tickets online, including cheaper costs and a special line that allows you inside before those who bought at the box office.

PHOTO COURTESY OF POPCULTURESHOCK.COM �HOT O FF THE REEL: R.E.D. by mila p a n t o vich pride s t a f f w r i t e r A movie about retired CIA agents may not seem appealing to a younger generation, but "Red" certainly succeeds in proving any naysayers wrong. Filled with a high-caliber cast, copious amounts of gunfire, fantastic action sequences, and perfectly timed jokes, "Red" manages to set itself apart from any other film at the theater right now, making it the perfect film to catch with a group of friends. Frank Moses is a CIA blackops retiree living a life of calm repetition. He fills his days with a routine that includes watching after an avocado pit and finding excuses to call Sarah (Mary-Louise Parker), a telephone operator who escapes her dull life through reading trashy romance novels. However, when a group of heavily armed assassins shoots their way into his house, Frank quickly discovers that he, and all of the agents he worked with, are targets due to their knowledge of top-secret information. After snatching Sarah, who was in danger due to her contact with him, Frank begins reassembling his old team, Joe (Morgan Freeman), Marvin (John Malkovich), and Victoria (Helen Mirren). Together, the team makes their way to an ex- citing climax, with a government cover-up involving the Vice President (Julian McMahon), which will leave a smile on your face. It's incredibly hard to pull off a good action comedy without giving the audience the overwhelming feeling that you're trying too hard. Thankfully, Robert Schwentke has an incredible cast that revel in their characters. Bruce Willis plays a ruthless killer who is, as Mirren's character explains, "gooey on the inside." It's a role that Willis has done countless times but it works because delivering fun action scenes (including a scene in which he calmly steps out of a car that's doing a 360 degree spin) is what Wilis does best. x While Willis is good, his fellow retired black-ops agents make the movie truly worth seeing. Playing a cancer patient living in a retirement home, Morgan Freeman is disappointingly underused but uses his screen time with a charming and effortless ease. Playing a paranoid conspiracy theorist, John Malkovich only gets more fascinating and hypnotizing with age. Even when barely in the frame, he steals nearly every scene that he is in, reveling in Marvin's neurosis and entertaining with merely the raise of an eyebrow. Matching Malkovich for laughs is Helen Mirren, who is absolutely stunning as the polished and lethal weapon's expert, Victoria. Mirren effortlessly proves that, at 65 years old, she is far sexier behind a high-powered machine gun than any young starlet could ever be. Also delivering great performances are MaryLouise Parker, Karl Urban as the conflicted agent tasked with killing the group, Richard Dreyfuss, Brian Cox, and an adored appearance by Ernest Borgnine. While a PG-13 rating is often a detriment to action films, rest assured that the rating hasn't dulled the explosive fun one bit. "Red" renders the low rating unnoticeable by employing excellent ac. tion scenes and a plethora of gunfire. With bodies being blown to bits, Schwentke turned to stylized sequences without resorting to unnecessary moments of excessive blood. For fans of the original graphic novel of the same name by Warren Ellis and Cully Hammer, don't expect a faithful adaptation. After all, the Frank of the book would never be called "gooey." However, as a standalone action film, "Red" makes the right' choice in letting its incredible cast have fun with their roles, which in turn makes the film a complete joy to watch. With its predictability and bloated length that drags in the middle, "Red" doesn't reinvent the action comedy genre by any means. Nevertheless, by providing constant laughs and delivering scenes like Malkovich's attack on a woman in the airport and Mirren's command of a rocket launcher, "Red" will probably be the most fun you've had in a movie theater in a while.

Although some may not take their food preferences to such extremesf there is no denying the warm pleasure of a bowl of fragrant, steaming soup on a chilly autumn evening. Soup can serve as a light lunch or, when paired with a sandwich or pasta dish, a filling dinner. It may be easy to break out the can opener and heat some pre-packaged chowder or broth, but with only a few more minutes of preparation, you can enjoy a bowl of homemade soup custom designed to suit your taste. A little time on the stove and your soup will be ready for slurping. Full of nutritious ingredients and vitamins, soups are a scrumptious way to stave off winter cold and flu season. There is a reason why people recommend eating chicken soup when you get sick! Here is a recipe to get you started. Chicken Tortilla Soup 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed 1 cup chopped cooked chicken Vi avocado, diced VA cup fresh cilantro leaves 1 can diced tomatoes 1 chopped poblano pepper * Vegetable or chicken stock Handful of corn tortilla chips Shredded cheese Pour all ingredients except the stock and chips into a pot and heat on the stove until warmed. Add stock until desired consistency. Crumble tortilla chips into a bowl and ladle soup over the top. Add shredded cheese over the top and enjoy! The avocados and black beans in this soup are nutritional powerhouses. CSUSM health educator Cathy Nguyen said, "Good sources of nutrients found in avocados include: beta carotene, magnesium, Vitamin E, and potassium to name a few." Regarding the health benefits of black beans, she said, "according to a research study from Michigan State University in 2003, black beans have the most antioxidant activity of all flavonoids when compared to 12 other varieties of dry beans. Black beans are also an excellent source of dietary fiber and help with digestive disorders." This soup proves that eating healthy can be delicious! Ciao, my soup chefs! THE COOKIN' COUGAR DRAWING BY CHELSEA JAUREGUI �OCTOBER 12TH, 2010 A&E THE PRIDE S treet a rt t hrive/ in BY MILA PANTOVICH PRIDE STAFF WRITER If you've been to downtown San Diego within the past two months, you've probably noticed the more recent insurgence of inspired street art to hit our urban landscape. If you have yet to make a trip to the downtown area, take a day off and make the short drive as quickly as possible. On July 18, 2010, the "Museum of Contemporary Art" opened its most recent art exhibition, "Viva la Revolución: A Dialogue with the Urban Landscape" within the Jacobs Building on Kettner Boulevard. Curated by Pedro Alonzo and MCASD Associate Curator Lucía Sanromán, the exhibit features twenty of the most well known street artists from ten different countries (including the likes of Shepard Fairey, Banksy, VHILS, and Barry McGee). The exhibit succeeds in opening dialogue to the nature of street art and its place in society by removing the art from its urban context and placing it within the white walls of a museum. The risk was well taken and incredibly successful due to the sheer weight and overwhelming beauty of the pieces shown. With thoughtprovoking installations, the exhibit succeeds in integrating the chaos of urban artwork with the pristine, and often outdated, setting of an art museum. One of the largest pieces in the exhibit is by Swoon, the only female artist featured in the exhibit. The enormous installation utilizes recycled materials, such as wood slabs and glass bottles, to assemble a tower of forgotten waste that gives attention to industrialization and the humanity that is lost in the process. Also featured in the exhibit is a stunning use of crumbling urban walls as art by VHILS, Stephan Doitschinoff's thought-provoking religious alter, and reactionary prints by the infamous Banksy (the largest collection of his prints to be shown at once). Open until Jan. 2, 2011, the exhibit bravely embraces the unique and risky nature of the ever-changing street art scene, allowing the movement the respect it deserves from the community of art museums. Unique and entirely fitting Of the exhibit's theme, "Viva la Revolución" doesn't limit itself to an indoor setting and includes public commissions throughout downtown San Diego, as well as un-commissioned works on locations secured by the museum. Included in the public displays is a photomural by JR and large-scale murals by OS Gemeos, Stephan Doitschinoff, Shepard Fairey, Invader, and Barry McGee. One can either hit the exhibit first, picking up a street map there (also available at http://wwwjncasandiego. org) to engage in their art treasure hunt, or take two days to explore the two very different art viewing experiences. Many works are within walking distance of the exhibit, two are on the same block, but there are many gorgeous pieces that one would need a car to see, especially Shepard Fairey's beautiful piece in South Park and Stephen Doitschinoff's comparison of Jesus to the inhuman neg- ligence of livestock that appears off of 16th Street in downtown. What the scavenger hunt manages to do, within our clean streets, is create an awareness of all the surrounding art that one may never notice. Instead of traveling through San Diego streets blindly, the public displays cause people to engage with the constant presence of art. While some may go completely unrealized, like Invader's small-scale work with tiles that don't appear on the map, each one causes people to appreciate areas that they may never have noticed before, giving them new landmarks to know their city by and opening a surging dialogue regarding the nature, power, and necessity to the growing of culture that urban art brings.
