CSUMB’s agricultural plant and soil science program has received a $5 million grant to expand and offer an enhanced career path to graduating students.

U.S. Rep. Jimmy Panetta (CA-19) has secured $7 million for the construction of a new office for the NOAA’s Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary at CSU Monterey Bay.

“We want any student who steps on campus who is first-generation to know that they have a strong support system at CSUMB.”

What began as a place where students could come to exercise creativity has grown into a social nexus as well.

This spring semester, 703 students worked on the CSUMB campus.

The Community Foundation for Monterey County has dispensed more than $800,000 to support students in CSUMB’s Bachelor of Science in Nursing program over the past six years. The funds were donated by the Gambord family. A lunchtime reception at the Otter Student Union on Friday, May 12, honored the Gambords and some of the 66 nursing students who have benefited from the scholarships they have made possible.

Eight students toured Post Ranch Inn, strolling in the dense forest, poking their heads into rooms.

Monterey Bay Equestrian Center brought a petting zoo with guinea pigs, rabbits, goats, miniature pigs and chickens – one of which laid an egg – to the main quad. A steady line of students waited up to 25 minutes to get a dose of fur and feathers on their fingertips.

The grant was provided by CSUMB donor Debbie Juran, who knows the kinds of struggles such students face.

The mini festival raises school spirit, promotes campus programs and athletics, and infuses fun into the campus.
