Director of the Office of Education Abroad Matthew Yates first began at California Lutheran University three years ago, in 2021. He has since then implemented a variety of programs at Cal Lutheran to promote study abroad programs. Yates says he has dedicated a good portion of his adult life to continuing to enlighten himself and others on the subject of education.

Before being named the Director of the Office of Education Abroad at Cal Lutheran University in July 2021, Yates earned his Bachelor of Arts in History and International Studies from Indiana University Bloomington.

As far as Yates’ work experience, he was Assistant Director of Education Abroad at Kansas State University and most recently served as Director of Education Abroad at the University of Connecticut, Yates said

Director of the Mariachi Ensemble Rocio Marron has been teaching and getting students prepared for the concerts for nearly five years.

According to the Cal Lutheran Music Department website, Mariachi is a rich musical tradition that came from Mexico, with instruments used including trumpet, violin, guitar, and voice.

Marron said the group picks out songs throughout the semester. Singers pick the songs they want to perform, and then Marron will either make suggestions or changes if necessary.

Karsten Lundring, otherwise known as “The Candy Man,” was a member of the first graduating class of California Lutheran University in 1965. He was also among the first students to enroll at Cal Lutheran in 1961. Three generations of Lundrings have graduated from Cal Lutheran, Lundring said, including his son in 1994 and his grandson in 2024.

Lundring was first given his nickname 57 years ago. The Cal Lutheran football team was playing an away game against the University of San Diego. Lundring said he had a family business picnic in Long Beach that day, but he moved the picnic time forward so that he could make it on time to the Cal Lutheran game at night.

The candy was initially meant for kids attending his family picnic; however, when he got to San Diego for the game, Lundring realized he had forgotten to throw the candy at the picnic. So, Lundring said he brought the candy into the stands and threw it whenever Cal Lutheran would make a good play. Ever since that day, Lundring said he always brings candy to Cal Lutheran athletic games.

La Universidad Luterana de California realizó un evento el 6 de noviembre, titulado “Uniendo Fronteras: Entendiendo el Panorama Político de Venezuela y su Impacto en Colombia”. Este evento es parte de la serie “Colombia @ CLU exchange”, dirigido por la Profesora y Decana Asociada de Equidad, Inclusión y Pertenencia, Lorena Muñoz.

Un tema sumamente importante, según Muñoz, fue la discusión de la situación de las mujeres migrantes fuera de Venezuela y los estereotipos alrededor de ellas. Alexandra Choconta, investigadora académica y presentadora del evento, dijo que su trabajo es eliminar y combatir estos estereotipos, no seguir reproduciendo estas lógicas en los medios de comunicación.

“En nuestra exposición Bridging Venezuela en Colombia, lo que intentamos hacer fue traer una perspectiva histórica desde nuestra posición como académicos colombianos”, dijo Choconta. “Y de la situación en Venezuela y cómo ha impactado especialmente la migración a Colombia. Lo que intentamos fue como dar varios puntos de vista histórico de situaciones históricas importantes y cuáles han sido como las mayores repercusiones para las mujeres migrantes venezolanas en Colombia”.

There is little to no information regarding California Lutheran University’s stance on its environmental impact. Only information on the university’s Environmental Science and Studies degrees as well as an article about sustainability projects from over a decade ago can be found online. The Echo was also able to find a 2009 Cal Lutheran Sustainability Action Plan, yet no updates or statements have followed since the release of it.

In comparison to Cal Lutheran, both Pepperdine University and Chapman University, two local private institutions, have Offices of Sustainability on their campus - according to their respective websites.

According to the Academic Affairs page on Cal Lutheran’s website, there is a sustainability committee at the university. Associate Professor and Chair of the Earth and Environmental Sciences Department Robert Dull said the sustainability committee has not met since before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down the academic school year in early 2020.

Junior Elizabeth Marquez said that events like these are important because they provide the opportunity to connect with one another and meet new people.

California Lutheran University’s Theatre and Dance Department performed “No Exit,” a student-directed play by senior Riley Herbert. The play features three students trying to figure out why they are brought together in Hell.

The show ran from Thursday, Oct. 17 to Sunday, Oct. 20. The original play was written by French playwright Jean-Paul Sartre in 1944. Herbert said the inspiration for choosing this play was based on her work in the Cal Lutheran’s Political Science Department.

Herbert said she is currently doing an honors thesis on restorative justice, focusing largely on rehabilitation and figuring out why people commit crimes.

California Lutheran University’s Kingsmen football team faced the Redlands Bulldogs in the annual Smudge Pot game on Saturday, Oct. 19 at William Rolland Stadium. The Kingsmen lost to the Bulldogs 17-15, two points short of beating the team for the first time since 2012.

This matchup also took place during Homecoming Weekend and senior wide receiver Cade Cadam said that the energy could be felt coming from the crowd.

“Awesome, awesome atmosphere, this is my second Smudge Pot game. Last year was at Redlands and so I never got to experience here at Cal Lutheran,” Cadam said. “It was an awesome turnout, just one play, we just didn’t get it done today.”

California Lutheran University’s women’s soccer team tied with the University of California Santa Cruz on the Regals’ Senior Day on Sunday.

“Our goals for the season, despite today’s tie, is just to continue to grow our chemistry as a team. Every team is going to come at us with a lot of intensity cause they wanna knock down the champs but I think for us it’s just, continuing to stay stuck in and continuing to get better every half of every game, and getting some more goals and times to celebrate with our team,” senior defender Avery West said.

Before the match, the Regals took time to honor and celebrate the seniors on the team.

Last Wednesday, California Lutheran University Career Services held its annual Graduate School Fair, inviting students to learn more about various graduate school programs. According to the Cal Lutheran website, students who attended the fair could learn about graduate programs, admission processes, and how to stand out in applications.

Senior Riley Herbert said the importance of events like the Grad Fair is the opportunity that they provide to meet people face-to-face.

“I think with a lot of graduate programs there are a lot of webinars and a lot of online events which are really great, but it’s just kind of a strain,” Herbert said. “It’s really nice to get to meet people in person and have some of your fears about applying to grad school alleviated, and just really get to talk with them and ask them your actual questions.”

California Lutheran University’s Women’s Volleyball team swept the Whittier Poets this past Friday in the Regals’ first Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference match of the season.

Before the match, Head Coach Kellee Roesel and Assistant Coach Alec Bennett established a game plan of how the Regals could win based on past matches with the Poets.

“Coming into today we were really thinking about containing their outside hitters,” Bennett said. “Whoever they were gonna throw in on that outside position, and then making their bigger players move quick, so we were trying to establish pretty quick offense to catch them off guard.”

Each fall semester, a select number of California Lutheran University students embark on the Oxford Study Abroad program. The first half is spent in Oxford and the second half is spent in London.

Compared to the other study abroad programs offered at Cal Lutheran, the application process for the program is considered “very competitive,” per the OEA’s website. Students are to apply one year in advance and fill out the Office of Education Abroad’s questions section.

This year, only eight students were accepted to the Oxford program. Dru Pagliassotti, a professor in the Communication Department, is the faculty leader for the current program.
