University offices, the library and bookstore will remain open." For complete coverage, follow our "wildfire" tag by clicking here.

What picture is that? A girl sitting in a chair is the best picture we could do with the headline "CSUN Cancels Classes Due to Fires"

Ehhh.

 

CSUN's webiste crashed or is overwhelmed when I was looking for logos. So I searched for CSUN class photos, that's what came up, gotta move fast! Fire news coming in fast. No time to perfect thumbnail photos.

 

I for one dig the photo.

:)

 

+1 for the photo

 

best photo... reason i clicked this article in my RSS feed

 

Same here, but I was hoping for larger image size after I clicked.

 

The commenters have spoken and i was in the wrong. Bring on the irrelevent photos of questionably attractive women!

 

I teach at CSUN and rather annoyingly the president won't commit to canceling classes for tomorrow. The earliest they will "know" will be 5:00 in the Motherf***ing AM! Meanwhile, I have students writing to me saying they can't/won't make it to class tomorrow.

The website is up and down today. You could do a cache search at google if you're looking for logos, etc.

 

Damn, I hope they cancel tomorrow. As a part time grad student, I only have class at night. Unfortunately, not on Monday, but I could totally use a night off tomorrow.

Funny how the school ended up being closed Columbus Day, even though it's not an observed holiday.

 

Whoever the girl is in the picture, she is cute.
No point in this comment, but I figured what the heck.

 

msmerymac, check with your instructor. He/she may cancel their own classes if the president isn't willing to commit.

I went ahead and my classes "optional" for Tuesday. It is a little tricky as it is midterm week but if freeways are closed and folks are having asthma attacks... I'm frankly surprised they are keeping the campus open. I would have to guess, given current conditions, they will do what they did yesterday and pull the plug on afternoon and evening classes.

 

JBourne - let's start a flyering Los Angeles campaign to find out who this girl is so we can get her to go out on a date with you. And then we could sell the story to someone writing a romantic comedy movie.
