In October 2023 SDSU President Adela de la Torre was informed by a donor of a call to gather at her house published in the student-run newspaper “The Koala.”

Adela responded by saying she was aware of the post and that campus police were “engaged proactively.” The Koala’s editor-in-chief, remaining anonymous, stated this was an overreaction and misuse of campus resources, saying the published message was submitted by students outside the organization. When The Daily Aztec attempted to investigate the campus police communications on the matter, the request for records was denied.

“The Black Parade” by American rock band My Chemical Romance has come to be regarded as a defining album of the emo subgenre. The rock opera’s dramatic story and distinct sound paralleled the alternative music and aesthetics of the 2000s.

The band, currently consisting of vocalist Gerard Way, bassist Michael “Mikey” Way and guitarists Ray Toro and Frank Iero, marched into Petco Park on Aug. 30 with “The Black Parade 2026,” reimagining the album’s story through themes of authoritarianism and resistance.
