Physics Student Wins 2022 CSU Trustees’ Award for Outstanding Achievement

When CSUDH physics major Jeisson Pulido was a child growing up in Las Cruces, an impoverished neighborhood in Bogotá, Colombia, he used to stare up at the stars in wonder. He never imagined that he would one day be working with the European Space Agency (ESA), helping to create a cutting-edge research satellite. “The resources in my neighborhood schools were very low,” he remembers. “I didn't receive a lot of education in math or physics, just the basics. I was never able to see myself studying in college or pursuing a science degree, because of the lack of funding in my schools. I was very good at math, but I didn’t even know that subjects like astronomy or physics existed.” After ... Read More

Bobbie Porter: Fighter for Equity and Diversity

August 18, 2022

Bobbie Porter's reflection in a window.

Bobbie Porter’s passion and enthusiasm for her work are evident the moment she starts speaking—and she’s ready to put that energy to work as CSUDH’s first vice president and chief diversity, equity, and inclusion officer. “Education changed my life,” she says. “If you look at the statistics, there's no way I should be where I am today. But I'm here. My mission is to help anyone that’s choosing education as that bridge, as that gateway to a better life. I want to help create the conditions so students can do that—so they don't just survive college, but they thrive in it. And then they go out and change the world!” Porter grew up in a military family—her father was in the Navy, so she ... Read More

Education Students Create Books for Local Children

August 3, 2022

Five children holding hands, a bumble bee on a sunflower, and a sheep and her lamb.

Students in the College of Education’s (COE) Early Language and Literacy LBS 310 course do more than study how children’s books contribute to early childhood literacy. By the time the course is over, students have written and illustrated their own books. It’s all part of CSUDH’s Project CYCLE: Crafting Young Children’s Literary Experiences, which brings the university and local community closer together. The goal of Project CYCLE is to provide the young children and families of CSUDH’s  Infant/Toddler Center, Child Development Center, and the surrounding community with books to read at home. It also gives the teachers-in-training hands-on experience in creating useful early literacy ... Read More
