Fall, 1973 marked the end of one era and the start of another.  Wayne Overbeck, the first Daily Titan adviser, left CSUF for a few years and Rick Pullen arrived to take over as faculty adviser.  Pullen, shown here teaching a Communications Law class in 1974, was adviser until 1977 and served as head of the Journalism Sequence until 1991, when he became associate dean and then dean of the College of Communications.



At a staff Christmas party in 1970, CSUF journalists decide to form a human Christmas tree...
 


The tree grows to five people...
 


Now the tree is six people high.  From the top down, they are Paula Schulte, Christine Torres, Richard Staley, John O'Dell, Catherine Reade and Mike Gibb.
