Message from President Vernon B. Harper, Jr.
The Black Student Life community here at CSUB is a model of unity, integrity and action in service to this university's highest ideals as an antiracist, inclusive and nuturing home to each and every student. We affirm all cultures, for we believe that diversity makes us stronger and that by reflecting the world around us, we are living our mission to uplift and serve.
As Black students, you are providing an example of excellence to your friends, family and neighborhoods that the pursuit of higher education is a noble and attainable goal, and where you lead, many others will follow. I thank you for choosing CSUB, and I look forward to working alongside you to launch our Black Student Excellence initiative, which is designed to offer unprecedented support, motivation and cultural pride.
