Get equipped for the future by finding a mentor

January 29, 2019 by Emily Tucker 1 Comment

Students can invest in their current studies and future careers by pursuing and interacting with mentors. Jonathan Miranda Jr., a Communication Studies student at CSUSB, was able to simplify a mentor’s role in the student’s life. In 2014, the Gallup-Purdue Index was created. According to their website, it is the largest representative study of college graduates in U.S. history. In this study, they focus on several things including quality of life and happiness once a student graduates. Mitch Daniels, President of Purdue University explained, “Our survey clearly indicated that it wasn’t where you go to college as much as it is how you go to college—what you extract from the … [Read more...] about Get equipped for the future by finding a mentor

SOAR leader says ‘Yes’ to CSUSB sweetheart

December 3, 2018 by Dusty Alexander Leave a Comment

Bubbles and applause erupted as Tierra Roman said ‘yes’ to her CSUSB sweetheart Thomas Robles’ marriage proposal. The proposal took place at 5 p.m. at the Murillo Family Observatory, as Robles, CSUSB alumni, diligently organized the elaborate surprise event. Robles got the idea to propose at CSUSB because the school meant so much to both of them. “This is the place where we met, this is the place where we had our first kiss,” Robles said, “This is where I want to start our life together, CSUSB.” Since the engagement, the couple has been enjoying the start of their new lives together. "This has been the happiest time in both of our lives," Robles said, "I love that we are … [Read more...] about SOAR leader says ‘Yes’ to CSUSB sweetheart

Finding your way at a post-graduation crossroads

May 22, 2018 by Crystal Harrell Leave a Comment

Since the very start of freshman year, every college student anticipates the moment they will walk across the stage at graduation with a degree to show for their efforts in pursuing a higher education. It's a Hallmark moment filled with smiling farewells, inspirational speeches, and group pictures to capture that feeling of accomplishment forever. What often gets overlooked in the afterglow of alumnal bliss, however, is the question that lurks in the back of a recent graduate's mind: what's next? There are several paths one can follow after receiving their bachelor's degree. Some take a year off to embark on a journey of self-discovery (and well-deserved rest) while others prepare to … [Read more...] about Finding your way at a post-graduation crossroads

Students discuss graduation plans

January 30, 2017 by Amber Childress Leave a Comment

By Amber Childress |Staff Writer| Although college is supposed to be a four year plan intended for all students, not every student agrees. Some students see college as a process that every student has to go through at their own pace in order to advance. “The process of graduating is everything you’ve done to get you to finish," stated student Jackie Barajas. "It’s the hard work you put in for years, the long hours of studying, the stress, and everything else that comes with it,” added Barajas. Other students consider requirements that must be fulfilled as a determining factor in one's graduation plan. “Before you start taking classes for your major you have to go … [Read more...] about Students discuss graduation plans

Are you ready for the “real world”?

May 12, 2016 by Israel Ramirez Leave a Comment

By Israel Ramirez |Staff writer| Many students who obtain a degree do not necessarily know what to do with it. This can only mean they are not prepared for what we call the "real world." When I refer to the "real world," I am speaking about the job industry and what it will take for us to compete with others in order to land a job after graduation. As students, we must be prepared to perform to our full potential. "If I could go back and do something differently it would have to be networking with other individuals and attending school events in order to meet new faces who could later be an influence when attempting to obtain a job," said library service specialist Manuel Veron.

Pursuing Higher Degree Education

March 7, 2016 by Steffanie Martinez Leave a Comment

By Steffanie Martinez |Staff Writer| Tough choices have to be made after obtaining your college degree—a huge one in particular: choosing between attending graduate school or going straight into the workforce. This is not always the easiest decision to make, as there are many factors to take into consideration. Graduate school is not an extension of your college life—there are big differences. “From studying to socializing, you’re entering a new world. But if you choose to go to grad school to study something you’re passionate about, you’ll likely find it much more rewarding than college," stated Dr. Melissa Boone Brown of Columbia University. Speaking to recent grad school … [Read more...] about Pursuing Higher Degree Education

“California Promise” bill promises to help students

March 7, 2016 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Joel Cruz |Staff Writer| A new bill designed to increase graduation rates was introduced to California’s legislature by Sen. Steve Glazer.   SB-1450, or the “California Promise,” aims to provide a new pathway for incoming college freshmen students to graduate in four years.   “One thing that we fall short on is the issue of student success, being able to complete your degree in four years, and unfortunately California State University ranks near the bottom,” stated Glazer in a video of a press conference at Cal State Sacramento.   Only one out of five, or 19 percent of Cal State students, who enter college as full-time freshmen graduate within four years, … [Read more...] about “California Promise” bill promises to help students

With their college days nearing an end, some students are experiencing a wave of mixed emotions, from excitement and pride, to fear and uncertainty. Graduation can evoke a number of questions, and perhaps the most prominent question of them all is “What will I do next?” “It’s kind of scary to think about life after graduation,” stated CSUSB communications senior Cecilia Beccera. “I want to travel.
