Today’s newsletter is presented by Frazier Farms.
Good morning, San Diego.
I blinked, and then we were nearly at the holidays. It’s almost Thanksgiving during an upside-down year.
This year, however, instead of thinking about the traditional feasts, I’m thinking about my friends and neighbors who have been going hungry. SNAP benefits may have been restored (for now), but food insecurity is here to stay.
That’s why our top story is about a group of San Diego State students who are running a campaign through the end of the month to combat hunger and food insecurity for other students with a series of on-campus events. The Aztecs Rock Hunger campaign is now in its fifteenth year.
We’ve also got a poignant look at a Veterans Day event at a memory and elder care center, University of California students campaigning to have more 0f a presence on the Board of Regents, and much more.
Stay safe out there, friends.

Today’s opinion column
Opinion: San Onofre waste vaults may be ‘dry as a tomb’ — but for how long?
Until the San Onofre nuclear waste is moved, repackaged and secured, Southern California will live beneath a silent shadow: a radioactive inheritance we can ill afford to ignore.
