Prepare for Launch: Join us for Cosmic Party in the Park!
Our signature event will return to CSUB Alumni Park on Oct. 16, 2025 for Cosmic Party in the Park!
It's an opportunity for alumni and friends to gather among the cosmos and celebrate the 29th anniversary of this community-favorite extravaganza. It will be full of out-of-this-world fun and stellar vibes.
Most importantly, we will raise vital support for scholarships that help `Runners chase their graduate school dreams and mentoring programs that give students the tools to thrive in a competitive job market. Thanks to your support, the Alumni Association recently awarded $10,000 in scholarships to alumni pursuing advanced degrees at CSUB for the 2026–2027 academic year.
Our `RunnerBridge Community on LinkedIn connects CSUB students, alumni, faculty and staff—near and far—for informal mentoring and networking. And our `Runner Alumni Mentor Program builds even stronger, long-lasting bonds between students seeking professional guidance and alumni eager to give back to their alma mater.
*This event is 21 and over
