CubeSats Deployed From ISS
CSUNSat1 – California State University Northridge, NASA JPL
The primary mission of CSUNSat1 is to space test an innovative low temperature-capable energy storage system, developed by JPL, raising its TRL level to 7 from 4 to 5. The success of this energy storage system will enable future missions, especially those in deep space to do more science while requiring less energy, mass and volume. This CubeSat was designed, built, programmed, and tested by a team of over 70 engineering and computer science students at California State University (CSUN). The primary source of funding for CSUNSat1 is NASA’s Small Spacecraft Technology Partnership program. For more information see http://www.csun.edu/cubesat. -- Parabolic Arc

Seize the Hollywood Sign
Danny Finegood is probably the second great genius of the Hollywood Sign, and the hero of this story. In the early morning of New Year’s Day 1976, the day decriminalization of marijuana took effect in California, he brought $50 worth of materials and a few friends up to the sign and changed it to read HOLLYWEED. He was an artist—this was a project for his environmental sculpture class at Cal State Northridge (he got an A). He did HOLYWOOD the next Easter, OLLYWOOD during the Iran-Contra hearings, and OIL WAR in 1990, in protest of the Gulf War, although that one was pulled down before the sun rose, according to his obituary. Finegood not only understood the sign as art, but understood it as a collective work—by 1976, those Machine-ish letters staggering along the hillside had accrued enough shared meaning that they could be altered and still refer to that meaning, creating something simultaneously new, familiar, and extremely delightful. (Whoever went out of their way to create PEROTWOOD in both 1992 and 1996 probably had a less nuanced theory.) -- LA Curbed
Job interview: how to dress to be successful
The choice of clothing, among other things, is not without consequences for itself. As a study by Northridge's 'Columbia University' and 'California State University' shows, formal dresses promote cognitive abilities and abstract thinking, casual ones focus on thinking about practical problems. -- Italy Journal (in Italian)
