Mold mission

Mark Farrell, a carpenter from Cal State Long Beach Facilities Management, cuts into the basement walls in the Social Services and Public Administration building Tuesday morning. According to Farrell, the walls had to be dried out to prevent mold after moisture seeped into them during a rainstorm that swept through campus last weekend.

Rainy reign

Students and staff brave the rain to attend class outside the University Bookstore area and the Social Sciences and Public Administration building on Monday afternoon. Approximately 1.42 inches fell in Long Beach on Monday, according to the Los Angeles Times. City health officer Helene Calvet cautioned beachgoers to avoid beaches for 72 hours after rainfall due to high levels of bacteria entering the ocean, according to the Press-Telegram.

Slanted stop

A stop sign outside the SSPA building is slanted oddly. Based on its angle, I'm guessing that the construction crews of the Outpost had something to do with it – I can imagine some kind of dump truck going backwards and accidentally hitting the sign. I have a hard time believing a car would be driving sideways across the road to hit it like that.
