CSUSB’s University Honors College welcomed 30 outstanding high school seniors to campus for the Presidential Academic Excellence Scholarship Dinner, an event designed to celebrate academic achievement and showcase the opportunities available through one of the university’s most competitive programs.
Three university-wide awards will be presented to Diana Z. Rodriguez (Distinguished Alumni Award), Miranda Lee (Emerging Leader Award) and Natalia Hale (Coyote Spirit Award) at the annual Alumni Hall of Fame Awards ceremony on April 10.
Three university-wide awards — Distinguished Alumnus, Emerging Leader and Coyote Spirit — will be presented, as well as the Paw Print Awards, which honor esteemed alumni from each of the university’s five colleges.
One of the highlights of the Nov. 5 event was the presentation by the Carvajal/Hale family, founders of Optima Family Services, who gave a $10,000 scholarship to CSUSB student Sam Martinez.
