Last week, we celebrated our Fresno State TRIO Upward Bound graduating class! To date, more than 92% of our seniors have accepted their admission offers and will be pursuing higher education this fall. Believe me when I say: #TRIOworks !!!

Happy Pride from Victor E. Bulldog IV, the entire Fresno State community, and me. With Hope, Pride, and Love. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ 📍Pride Flag Raising at Fresno State

🚨 Unannounced ICE raids in L.A. are terrorizing our communities. This administration has gone too far. As a daughter of immigrants who were once undocumented, this is personal. We must protect our immigrant brothers and sisters—our communities depend on their contributions.

As someone who once worked the fields as a migrant farmworker & later flew amongst the stars, I stand with our immigrant community! Their goal of reaching the American dream fuels our nation’s future - & deserve respect, dignity, & opportunity. #ImmigrantsMakeAmericaStrong🚀 🇱🇷🚀

One thing about Fresno State TRIO Upward Bound is that we will manifest and prepare future doctors! As we approached the midpoint of our six-week summer program, I presented on the different levels of education and brought my regalia. My students were excited! #TRIOworks

Wonderful Sunday afternoon with our pal, Dr. Joseph I. Castro and his longtime friends from UC Berkeley, Stanford University Goldman School of Public Policy CSU @UCOP. Thanks, Lalo Alcaraz for the ink. #LegacyLiving Photo Credit: @trojandre

One of the most rewarding aspects of TRIO work is witnessing students like Alejandro grow, pursue their dreams, and reach for the stars, despite any barriers they may face. Congratulations, Alejandro. Go out there and change the world. #TRIOworks #FresnoState

As a current Fresno State employee and alumnus, thank you,Dr. Castro, for teaching us to lead with heart & for making this campus a welcoming space for ALL students. In the words of Dr. Francine Oputa "He is a good one." Sending all my love & condolences to the Castro family.
