Sacramento State is making good on its goal of becoming a more energy-efficient campus. Last week, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger announced California State University's partnership with SunEdison, a company that specializes in solar energy solutions. Staples, Whole Foods, Kohl's and CalTrans also use SunEdison's services. Sac State is a relative late-bloomer when it comes to dealing with SunEdison. CSU Chico, San Luis Obispo and Dominguez Hills each partnered with the company in 2006. CSU San Bernardino joined in 2007. The Hornet is excited for the green energy initiative, even though it believes this should have been accomplished sooner. (0) comments

Simply put, Charles Postel, assistant history professor, is one of the best things that has ever happened to Sacramento State. In a time in which we struggle for a positive image, we have a faculty member that Ivy League colleges would love to have. (1) comment
There's a peculiar calm settling across the quad. The entire campus seems somewhat reafflicted by this epidemic of indifference. (0) comments
Oh-bama. I sat there with you on Tuesday with millions of Americans, our eyes filled with tears as you finally were crowned Miss Teen USA. Or, wait, president-elect. But doesn't it feel like that? A pageant? (2) comments
