This years recipients are standouts in business, the military, and farmworkers rights.

In partnership with the Imperial Valley Regional Occupational Program, SDSU Imperial Valley opened its campus for young adults and foster care youth to learn about its diverse degree offerings.

Imperial County has one of the highest rates of childhood asthma in the entire state of California; this is likely due to its proximity to the Salton Sea.

The annual event is an opportunity for Imperial County high school students to connect with faculty, tour the campus, and learn more about the university's academic offerings and opportunities.

The visit comes on the heels of Gov. Newsoms $80 million allocation of state funds for a new STEM facility on SDSU Imperial Valleys Brawley campus.

Nine individuals across colleges and disciplines selected for their scholarship, creative activities, innovation and public impact.

Held on Feb. 28 at SDSU Imperial Valley, the event served as an opportunity to provide updates on the ongoing work behind the new STEM building in Brawley.

As an active volunteer in her community, Hortencia Armendariz saw a need to help students with basic needs, such as school and professional attire.
