Another senior from Cal State Northridge named Miguel Paredes noted that “Yo quiero Taco Bell” was not the first offensive campaign by the popular restaurant. “People, particularly Chicanos, find this advertisement offensive because Taco Bell has a history of commercials that were insensitive to the struggle of Mexicans in the United States,” he said. “The previous emblem with the Mexican with the sombrero taking a nap and the ‘Run For the Border’ campaign were very offensive.” -- mitu

Student Wellness Unbounded: Recreation and Wellness Taking New Forms
California State University Northridge (CSUN) is creating a new Basic Needs Suite on its campus. In 2019, CSUN conducted a food security survey and found 48% of their students had low or very low food security. However, many students hadn’t used the campus food pantry due to barriers of stigma, lack of information, etc. The revitalization of the CSUN student union created an exciting opportunity to resolve these issues in the form of the Basic Needs Suite which not only provides students with the resources they need, but does so with an imbued sense of care and dignity. -- Campus Rec Magazine
