Cosmetology in a new light

I have looked at the list of services the Cosmetology Department has to offer but never considered going here to get a haircut.

Considering a haircut at SuperCuts is about $15, a $5 haircut at Cerritos doesn't seem so bad.

It sounds great, actually.

The department should explain on its fliers how it operates.

How many students really know that advisers watch over students to make sure everyone is comfortable?

That has to be the main concern of everyone that doesn't want their hair cut by a student.

The department's hours aren't great, but a lot of students should be able to squeeze in a visit between classes.

The hours are:
• Monday and Wednesday, 11:30 to 3:30 p.m.,
• Tuesday and Thursday, noon to 3:30 p.m. and
• Friday and Saturday, 8:45 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Maps for the campus

Discussions took place at this week's ASCC Cabinet meeting to put up signs throughout the Cerritos College campus with maps on them.

The reason for this is because the signs with arrows now aren't very helpful.

That's true, they're not. They provide a guide to let you know you're heading in the right direction, but they're not very detailed.

Maps around campus are a good idea.

Maps are already on the Talon Marks newsstands, however.

They need to be updated, but they're already there.

Plus, they're black and white drawings. If they are to be updated, they could use come color to attract the eye and be more noticeable for people that are lost.

There's an alternative for the ASCC instead of spending money on new signs.
