The sweeping undercover drug operation that traced more than $100,000 worth of drugs and cash to fraternity and student houses on and around San Diego State campus Tuesday may have been linked to the Tijuana cartel through pre-health science student Omar Castaneda, a member of the South Side Pomona gang.
Members of San Diego State's Students for a Sensible Drug Policy held a conference to share their feelings on the ongoing drug bust today in front of Hepner Hall. The group advocates a more rehabilitation-focused process for student drug users. Randy Hencken, a graduate student in the School of Communication and former president of the SDSU SSDP chapter, was the main speaker.

There are festivals - and then, there is Coachella. Exhaustion. Dehydration. Crowds. Comfort isn't what cements Coachella as California's best music festival. It's like running a marathon: After the blood, sweat and tears are showered off, a sense of accomplishment is left engraved in your mind's photo book.
If the San Diego State baseball team was an analogy for life, Stephen Strasburg would be death and taxes. If it was based on "Die Hard," he would be SDSU's equivalent to Sgt. Al Powell. And if he was a truck, he would be a Chevy (if you believe the commercials).
Imagine being able to regrow your leg the same way a lizard regrows its tail. The same people who brought us the Internet and GPS satellites are providing the military - and later the public - with technology to regrow body parts.
