Matt Finegood Launches Indiegogo Crowdsourcing Campaign for HOLLYWeeD T-Shirts

As it turns out, Finegood used the feat as a project submission for an art course at Cal State Northridge and he received an "A" for the daring project. He and his friends altered the sign three other times. That same year on Easter Sunday, he was responsible for changing the sign to read "HOLYWOOD". In 1987, Finegood changed it to read "OLLYWOOD" in light of Oliver North and the Iran-Contra Affair. Then in 1992, he altered the sign to read "OIL WAR" during the Persian Gulf War. -- WFMJ

Is a two-year college sometimes the best path to a four-year degree?

California State University, Northridge is one of most diverse schools in the nation. But roughly half of its students don’t graduate in six years, and many never receive a degree. To remedy this problem, California State University, which consists of 23 schools and is the largest university system in the country, has launched an initiative to double its four-year graduation rate in 10 years. Working with The Hechinger Report for this series, three students from a Northridge journalism class write about what has held them back, and what they think needs to change. -- Hechinger Report
