Over 100 students marched through the CSULB campus today taking part in the Million Student March, a wave of student protests on college campuses across the nation to demonstrate against various social and educational issues.

Over 100 campuses took part in the nationwide movement including Cal Poly, UCLA, UC San Diego, UC Irvine, UC Riverside and Santa Mon-ica College.

“Today marks a day of awakening because today we begin to break the chains that limit our futures,” said a message posted to the Students For Quality Education facebook page. “We will no longer stay silent against the injustices being committed against us the students.”

Student demands included tui-tion-free education, student debt for-giveness, and $15 minimum wage for all campus-based workers, according to the SQE facebook page. SQE orga-nizers at the rally also demanded jus-

tice for the Black Lives Matter Move-ment, Palestine and ethnic studies.

The march started at 1:30 p.m. near the quad on upper campus, paused for speakers and performers at the free speech lawn, and ended in front of Brotman Hall. A coalition of organizations made up the crowd, in-cluding Students for Quality Educa-tion, Black Student Union, La Raza, California Faculty Association, Stu-dents for Palestine and Sociology Student Association.

“They had a promise for us and there was a dream that is now lost,” Associated Student Inc. President

Jose Salazar said speaking to the crowd at the free speech lawn. “This should not end here, this should go beyond the event to let our adminis-trators, our leaders know. After all we are the future.”

Protesters carried signs with slo-gans like “Free education, no barri-ers, no business“ and “we the students of CSULB oppose tuition hikes.” Protestors chants included “college is for education, not for-profi t corpo-ration,“ “money for jobs and educa-tion, not for rich administration” and “when they cut back our education, we go into occupation,” just to name

a few. A peaceful police presence of fi ve

offi cers, including the University’s Chief of Police, met the students upon their arrival at Brotman Hall. At least two offi cers were positioned in front of the stairs leading to the president’s offi ce. Police Lieutenant Richard Goodwin when asked if the police were there to prevent students from storming the president’s offi ce said yes.

A storming of the President’s of-fi ce to garner a response would not be necessary however, as President Jane Close Conoley emerged from

her offi ce about 10 minutes after stu-dents began chanting for her to ad-dress the crowd. President Connoley would appear a total of two times to address questions from the student organizations. Specifi cally she was asked on her stance on the racial-ly charged events at Missouri State University and on potential tuition increases.

“Education is a right and black lives matter,” said Conoley. “You can count on my 100% support for mak-ing this campus safe for everyone and every voice. It’s not your job to fi x it, it is my job to fi x it, but you have to give me information.”

Terri Carbaugh, a media repre-sentative for the university, was also present during the student demon-stration.

“We respect the student’s right to assemble and voice their opinions,” Carbaugh said. “Today is an example of students voicing their opinion and that is what college campuses are all about and we are listening to what the students have to say.”

Bystander Reed Reimers, a senior business major, noted that the protest was too intense for his own involve-ment but thought that the students were addressing legitimate issues.

“It is a disturbance, but important that it is happening,” Reimers said. “It is kind of intense, but if protesting is the way to address the issues then that’s the way to do it.”

The California State University, Long Beach campus was on Sunday still trying to come to grips with the death of design student Nohemi Gonzalez, who was one of at least 129 killed in terrorist attacks carried out across Paris on Friday.

Thousands packed a campus vigil Sunday evening that spilled out from the University Student Union into the Friendship Walk. Gonzalez, a senior industrial design major, was attend-ing Strate School of Design during a semester abroad program. She was 23 years old and the first American vic-tim identified.

Students in the tight-knit commu-nity of designers were still trying to process the tragedy.

“We are a graduating class of 70 and we are still trying to process what happened,” Tanya Flores, a senior in-dustrial design major said during the vigil that CSULB hosted Sunday. “It was the weirdest feeling to recognize a name in the news.”

According to university officials, Gonzalez was with two other CSULB students in one of the two restaurants that the terrorists targeted. She was dining at La Belle Equipe, according to the Los Angeles Times. At 9:36 p.m. local time, terrorists opened gunfire on the restaurant, killing 19 people and critically wounding an-

other nine. “To the best of our understanding,

they [the students] were out at the time of the attack,” Terri Carbaugh, CSULB associate vice president for legislative & external relations, said Saturday at the CSULB press confer-ence “One of her friends did see that she was shot by the terrorists but [the friend] was able to flee.”

The friend reportedly saw Nohe-mi taken out on a stretcher, but was unable to determine her condition, Carbaugh said.

The attack on the La Belle Equi-pe was one of six separate attacks throughout Paris. The attacks in-cluded shootings at four restau-rants; bombings outside the Stade de France, where France was playing against the German soccer team; and a mass shooting at the Bataclan, a concert hall where three men killed over 100 people at a sold-out Eagles of Death Metal performance.

Nohemi’s stepfather Jose Hernan-dez said in an interview with KTLA5 that he and Nohemi’s mother Beatrez Gonzalez learned of Nohemi’s death from her boyfriend, Tim Mraz.

“We were told that she didn’t make it,” Hernandez told the station. “We don’t know if she died instantly, or if she suffered, or how did it happen. We don’t really know.”

Mraz referred to her on Instagram Saturday as his best friend and the most important person in his life. He spoke about her commitment to help-ing others; Gonzalez was a teaching assistant for the department of design.

“She was selfless and eager to show others work,” Mraz said. “She was teaching others what I taught her in

the shop. I was her T.A. Two years older than her and after me she be-came the T.A. And she ran the shop. If someone was holding a tool wrong she would be like ‘Hey, what the hell are you doing?’”

“Nohemi was super caring and loved by many,” Monique Weinapple, a senior industrial design major, said.

“She had a very buoyant, joyous personality. She was extremely live-ly, extremely energetic, no shortage of anything you couldn’t ask her to do, and she would be there for her

students, for her classmates,” said Michael LaForte, a lecturer for the department of design, during a news conference.

“We have been in close contact throughout the night with students and families and have confirmed that 16 other Long Beach State students studying in Paris are safe,” CSULB President Jane Close Conoley said.

CSULB reached out to each stu-dent individually via social media, phone calls and texts to confirm their safety, said Michael Uhlenkamp, the

CSULB executive director of news.In addition to Gonzalez, three oth-

er students were studying with her at the Strate College of Design.

CSULB also has roughly 80 stu-dents from France that are current-ly studying at CSULB. Conoley said that the university has also reached out to them.

Uhlenkamp said that students in need of counseling should contact the Office of the Dean of Students.

CSULB mourns study abroad student killed in Paris

French police have released a photo of a fugitive in the Paris attacks, saying the suspect is on the run and too dan-gerous for anyone outside law enforce-ment to engage directly.

News of the manhunt came as peo-ple gathered across France on Sunday to mark the nation’s second day of mourning following the coordinated attacks, claimed by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group.

Police on Sunday evening identified the man as Salah Abdeslam, a 26-year-old born in Brussels. He was suspect-ed of renting the car that delivered attackers to the Bataclan concert hall where dozens of people were killed.

“Do not intervene,” warns the mes-sage issued on Sunday evening.

Abdeslam is thought to be direct-ly involved in Friday’s attacks, which killed 129 people and wounded hun-dreds in the worst violence in France

in decades, French security officials told the AP news agency.

He is one of three brothers believed to be involved in the killings; one was arrested in Belgium and another died in the attack, one official said.

Abdeslam is also under an inter-national arrest warrant issued by Bel-gium.

Al Jazeera’s Paul Brennan, re-porting from Brussels, said security officials have indicated there is an ongoing search operation in the Bel-gian capital for Abdeslam and other suspects.

“This is a lot of priority being placed on this search,” he said.

In Paris, mourners lit candles and laid flowers on Sunday at the locations of the attacks across the capital, stand-ing in silence as police investigators elsewhere in the country launched a search for the attackers’ accomplices.

Stepping up their hunt for informa-tion, authorities found several AK-47 assault rifles in the back of an aban-doned SEAT car in an eastern suburb of Paris.

Witnesses said the car, found in Montreuil, was used by attackers at multiple locations on Friday night, the AFP news agency reported.

Earlier, French police identified Omar Ismail Mostefai, a 29-year-old Paris native, as one of the attackers.

Mostefai’s detached finger was found overnight at the Bataclan con-cert hall, the scene of the bloodiest attack.

The French citizen had been known to police for his alleged links to armed groups but had not been previously linked to violent activities. Police are also holding six of the man’s relatives.

French authorities believe the at-tacks were planned abroad by ISIL, but

have not yet confirmed the identities of others involved.

Belgian authorities, however, said that two of the attackers who died were Frenchmen who had lived in Brussels.

In Belgium, police said they have arrested seven people over their al-leged links to the attacks and investi-gators have found that two cars used in the operation were rented in Bel-gium, they added.

ISIL purportedly claimed responsi-bility for the attacks shortly after the incident but has also not revealed the identities of the attackers.

Greek authorities have also con-firmed that the holder of a Syrian pass-port found near the body of a gunman who died in the attacks had registered as a refugee on the island of Leros in October.

Greece identified the man as 25-year old Ahmad Almohammad, from

the northwestern Syrian city of Idlib.The attacks have intensified debate

on Europe’s response to the refugee crisis. Marie Le Pen, the leader of France’s far-right National Front par-ty, has called for a tightening of the country’s borders.

Al Jazeera’s David Chater, reporting from Paris, said security services will be concentrating on how the perpe-trators were able to get themselves and their ammunition into France without being noticed.

“The intelligence services will be looking at the blind spots in their sys-tem that allowed ISIL to get through their net - exactly where did they get their weapons, how did they get their ammunition, and has the Schengen system made the whole of Western Europe vulnerable.”

4November 16, 2015 Nous sommes Nohemi: A rememberANce

It was evident from her first day at the California State University, Long Beach: No-hemi Gonzalez was a little on the eccentric side. Jen San

Jose, who took a freshman public speaking class with Nohemi, remem-bers her brown hair was dyed with white stripes, resembling a raccoon’s tail.

However, it was Nohemi’s effer-vescent personality that most left an impression on those who encoun-tered her, including San Juan. By all accounts, her warm smile could turn a bad day good. Her family described her as “high-spirited.”

It’s this same fervor for life that Martin Herman, chair of the depart-ment of design, was struck by when he first met Nohemi, an industrial de-sign major, during a field trip.

“She viewed the world with trust, openness, imagination and playful-ness,” Herman said. “She was a flower in full bloom.”

Nohemi flourished at CSULB. She

took second place in the Biomimicry Global Design Challenge, along with three other classmates, by designing biodegradable trail mix packaging that separately contained soil and a seed that could be grown within the packaging.

CSULB was not only a place of intellectual growth for Nohemi; it was also where she found love. She met her boyfriend of four years, Tim Mraz, in the design workshop. He was two years her senior and had been a teacher’s assistant at the time.

“She wanted to do everything,” he said. “She taught me to live every day to the fullest.”

Nohemi’s work ethic was some-what legendary in the department. Fellow students would find her labor-ing over a project into the night. They would find her again in the morn-ing, still working, wearing the same clothes as the previous night.

During her junior year, Nohemi, like Tim before her, became a teach-er’s assistant for the department of design. She kept the workshop in tip-top shape and helped students with their projects.

Fellow senior industrial design major Monique Weinapple remem-bers that Nohemi was always there whenever anyone needed anything.

“She would come in on weekends to open the shop for me so I could finish my project,” Angela Hickman, a design major, said during a vigil for Nohemi.

She could also be tough. “If some-one was holding a tool wrong she

would be like ‘Hey what the hell are you doing?’” Mraz said.

During her senior year, Paris, with all its romanticism and bohemian culture, beckoned. Nohemi applied to spend a semester abroad. She would often come into the Study Abroad Office and ask, “Did I get in?” remem-bers Cecilia Fidora, the then assistant director of the Education Abroad Pro-gram.

Along with three other students, she was chosen to study at Strate College of Design in Paris. Going to France would mark her first time out of the country. She was 23 years old, an ever-expanding horizon before her.

Before she had left for Paris, Mraz said he and Nohemi built a table to-gether. After she left, he would look forward to seeing her over the holi-days in December.

Overcoming her limited French, Nohemi continued to pursue her pas-sion for renewable, environmentally conscious design while abroad.

“She was so excited to be in Paris,” Herman said.

Even in the City of Lights, she could not be outshined. In photos posted to social media from her time in France, she beams. Her smile be-trays a spark igniting into a flame.

“Mimi,” as her family knew her, grew up in Whittier and was the only daughter of Beatrez Gonzalez, who was most proud that Mimi lived life the way she wanted to and accom-plished almost everything she put her mind to.

Even before graduating, she had her sights set ahead: She dreamt of going into the aerospace industry, ac-cording to Mraz.

Unfortunately, Nohemi would never get the chance to live out her aspirations. On Nov. 13, while din-ing with friends at Parisian bistro La Belle Equipe, she became one of the at least 129 who were killed by terrorists across Paris.

But Nohemi’s passing only crys-tallizes the love and inspiration

she emitted in life. As French poet Charles Baudelaire wrote of the art-ist: “It is that Death, soaring like a new sun / Will bring to bloom the flowers of their brains.”

And so, Mimi, the first-generation Mexican-American, who had a Poca-hontas tattoo on her left arm, who loved a flighty Chihuahua named Tommy, who ran track in high school; the daughter, the niece, the girlfriend, the designer, the 49er, re-mains in full bloom.

Nohemi Gonzalez dies at 23 while studying abroad in Paris

Gonzalez was a senior majoring in industrial design at CSULB and studying at Strate College of Design.

Page 7: Daily 49er Nov 16, 2015

Holding back tears and voice quivering, he joked that Nohemi Gonzalez would have hated this vigil because she hated attention.

“See this, babe?” he rhetorically asked his deceased girlfriend as he looked up to the heavens in front of a packed room. “See all the peo-ple here for you? They’re all here for you.”

A senior industrial design stu-dent at CSULB, Gonzalez was killed in one of the terrorist attacks that rocked Paris on Friday. Her boy-friend Tim Mraz, family, friends and others from the community spoke at a memorial and candlelight vigil that California State University, Long Beach held Sunday to celebrate the life of Gonzalez. Held in the Uni-versity Student Union ballrooms, the ceremony drew a crowd of about 2,200, according to University Po-lice.

Mraz, who was in a relationship with Gonzalez for nearly four years, shared fond memories.

“She was my Pocahontas, you know,” Mraz said. “She had a Poca-hontas tattoo on her left arm because she’s left-handed. So am I. She al-ways said I was her John Smith. She liked pugs too, so I always joke that she’s in heaven with 100 pugs around her and she’s dressing them all up.”

CSULB Vice President of Student Affairs Carmen Taylor officiated the memorial portion of the vigil in the ballrooms. The crowd had gotten so large that hundreds spilled out to the Friendship Walk outside the USU, and workers posted speakers to broadcast the audio from the service.

“Cal State Long Beach may be a large urban university, located in a big city but when we lose a member of our campus community, it a� ects us all,” Taylor said. “It diminishes the whole and we are less because of this loss.”

Gonzalez was a CSULB senior design student studying abroad for the semester at Strate College of De-sign. She was one of four students in the design program in Paris, and one of 17 CSULB students studying in France. Gonzalez would have re-turned to California in December when the program finishes.

“The attacks in Paris two days ago only seem to confirm what many of us already know,” Taylor said. “That we live in a very uncertain world. Even the most innocent among us are at risk when doing nothing more than living our daily lives.

“That’s all Nohemi was doing when she found herself in the middle of a senseless act of violence that had

nothing to do with her. Still, it was an act that claimed this life, the life of a beautiful vibrant, 23-year-old student here at our university.”

University President Jane Close Conoley said that the vigil was not only for Gonzalez, but also for the city of Paris and for those who felt the impact worldwide.

“Taking the life of an innocent, and for Nohemi, an innocent with such great promise, is an assault on our hearts, to be sure,” Conoley said. “But also on our world. While to-day’s vigil is focused on Nohemi and her cherished family, friends, pro-fessors, we can’t help but experience the anguish felt by all those people of goodwill around the globe who know the one profound message of every religion is to love others as you want to be loved.”

Those who also spoke at Gonza-lez’ memorial included: CSU Chan-cellor Timothy P. White, French Consul-Generale M. Christophe Lemoine; CSULB Design Depart-ment Chair Martin Herman; CSULB ASI President Jose Salazar; Gonza-lez’ stepfather, Jose Hernandez and other family members; and design students Alex Schumacher, Angela Hickman and Tanya Flores.

After the speeches, the thousands honoring Gonzalez’ memory filed outside to light candles and place them outside on the plaza east of the USU. Members of the Bob Cole Conservatory chorus sang both during the memorial and at the can-dlelight vigil.

Tributes to Gonzalez’ memory are scattered through campus, includ-ing the plaza, the Design building and the Lymon Lough Fountain on the east side of Brotman Hall. The university requested that anyone in-terested in placing flowers or other items leaves them at the fountain. The Design Department at CSULB

will be hosting a private memorial for Gonzalez at a later date, accord-ing to the Design Department Face-book page.

A fund drive to help the Gonzalez family, “The Nohemi Gonzalez Me-morial Fund” on DonationTo, can be found at donationto.com/The-Nohe-mi-Gonzalez-Memorial-Fund.

“When you’re so far away it feels like you’re not there for your country,” she said in a broken French-English accent with a hint of regret.

Sophie Docquois, a junior English major who is studying abroad at California State University, Long Beach, and other students both international and local, faculty and staff are still grieving for the lives lost in Paris.

The world seems a little bit smaller when countries come together in solidarity after heinous attacks, like the shootings in Paris last Friday.

“It’s weird to think that I know these places, I’ve been there tons of times,” Docquois said. “It’s terrible to think that these places have changed now.”

Laura Benaderette, a junior international management major who is also studying abroad at CSULB, said that she, Sophie and their fellow Parisian schoolmate Léa Chardonneau, a junior linguistics major, were eating in the dining hall when they heard the news about the attacks in their hometown.

“We were all together when it happened. First of all we didn’t believe that it was happening; that’s not possible,” Benaderette said. “After we started to understand what was happening, we cried. It was really

horrible.”Although all the girls’ family and

friends have been accounted for, one of the most difficult experiences as a French student studying abroad in America during the attacks was contacting their friends and families.

“We just have to continue to live. We don’t have any other choice. France is a really, really safe country,” Benaderette

said. “You have to study abroad if you want to open your mind and learn about other things. There is no safe place, I mean, this is Paris, this is not like the Middle East or something.”

According to the New York Times, ISIS is responsible for killing 129 people in the Paris terrorist attacks on Friday.

“I think it’s what they want. They

attacked Paris because they wanted us to fear them,” Chardonneau said. “I think that it’s horrible, but when it’s done, it’s done, and they’re not coming back. But, I thought so in January with Charlie Hebdo, and I was wrong.”

Robert Marcus, the director of the International Studies Program and Global Studies Institute at CSULB, said that the program is adamant about

continuing their goals as a program, in spite of the attacks.

“We still want students studying abroad. We are still encouraging students to. We’ve spent a lot of time focusing on security issues and how to respond to different events,” Marcus said. “Of course in an event like this there’s no response, whether it’s Paris, London or Los Angeles. There’s no way to really prepare for such an eventuality.”

The study abroad spark has not dimmed for Laura, Lea and Sophie. As honorably demonstrated by CSULB student Nohemi Gonzalez, who was killed during the attacks, the excitement and wonder is still there.

“I think everyone who has the chance to [study abroad] should do it. When you hear about a girl who was going to spend a semester there…she was having fun. And [then] her life ended like this,” Docquois said. “I’m thinking that it could happen here. It could be me, it could be you. You cannot stop living because something has happened. It’s sad to say that.”

Luz Hernandez, whose son went to high school with Gonzalez, is troubled by the loss of life.

“It’s a cruel world right now. You guys are so young, and we shouldn’t have to be doing this,” Hernandez said. “You should all be enjoying your lives, there is no reason for so much evil to be out there. You need to enjoy your life and move forward.”

And move forward we will.

The Long Beach State women’s volleyball team rebounded from its loss to Hawaii by sweeping CSU Northridge on Friday at the Mata-dome.

Junior hitter Nele Barber sent a hard swing down for the game point in set one for LBSU, winning 25-23. In set two, Barber made an explosive swing at point 19 and again at point 22 giving LBSU a 10 point that led to a 25-16 win.

The Matadors took a 7-4 lead in set three, but the 49ers were able to roar back and take the final set 25-23.

LBSU will play Fullerton next Fri-day at 7 p.m. in the Walter Pyramid.

The Long Beach State women’s soccer team exited the NCAA Tour-nament after falling to No. 12 Santa Clara 1-0 on Saturday at Buck Shaw Field.

Broncos’ freshman forward Grace Cutler netted the only goal of the game in the 43rd minute after a failed clearance by LBSU allowed her to put the ball past junior goalie Ashton McKeown.

McKeown made her first start for the 49ers since Oct. 16. She made six saves to keep LBSU within reach of Santa Clara (14-5-2).

Junior midfielder Mimi Rangel led the 49ers with two shots; the only shots from LBSU the entire game.

The Long Beach State women’s basketball team opened its season by dominating San Diego State, 74-54, on Friday, then defeating Portland State, 89-71, on Sunday inside the Walter Pyramid.

LBSU’s full court press defense caused havoc for the Aztec offense. SDSU turned the ball over a total of 21 times on Friday.

Junior Jewelyn Sawyer scored 20 points and junior Raven Benton picked up from where she left off last season, scoring 13 points, grabbing six rebounds and three steals.

In Sunday’s win, the 49ers forced the Vikings into 30 turnovers and parlayed those into 32 points.
