As one of the most respected
international freight service providers in the world, Dependable Global
Express (DGX) is a constant presence in the world’s shipping ports and

(MSGISci) degree, Pallav presented his idea for a local solution that
stemmed directly from his experience in the program.

Everyone knows that a bad day can
quickly improve with the appearance of a furry friend. Emotional support
pets are appearing with increasing frequency, but where is the science
to back up the necessity of these creature comforts? Questions
like that have been on the mind of Emily Craig, a 2018 graduate of
CSULB’s Master of Science in Emergency Services Administration (EMER)

anguish that first responders often experience. Without positive methods
of processing these experiences, firefighters can often fall prey to
negative behaviors including drugs, alcohol, and even suicide.
