Our Provost, Dr. Jenny Zorn has adopted MIT's First Generation Program campaign at CSUB and we would like to share a few first generation college students with you. We think you might be surprised to learn several of CSUB's administration and faculty are first generation college students! Do you any of these stories speak to you? Are you the first in your family to attend or graduate college? In the comment section, please share your stories with us and encourage others to make education a priority!
AH is proud to announce that the CSUB student center coordinators were selected to present their proposal Decentralized Student Intervention: One Size Does Not Fit All at the NACADA 2016 Annual Conference in Atlanta, GA on October 7, 2016. The team included Dr. Anna Laven, Jennifer McCune, Yvette Morones, and Jaimi Paschal.

She explained “we are honored to represent CSUB at a national conference and demonstrate the high levels of student support professional advising brings to the campus”.
