Here’s a few of the quirks I’ve picked up on this week at CSPA: Mia has no problem lip-syncing Adele in her computer chair while writing a story on deadline, flailing her arms and saying, “CAN YOU GUESS WHAT SONG I’M LISTENING TO?!!??!?!?!?!”   Shelby & Aneesa confessed today in front of all the...

Of the two days I’ve spent at CalPoly, I’ve compiled a list of the top 5 best things about CSPA. 1. People- (this is an obvious one). With give or take 25 people here at the program, there’s more than enough conversation to go around for all the hours we’re spending together. 2. Knowledge-...
