A.S.I. President
touts Beach Pride
Dear community members,
Welcome to our
home at Cal State Long Beach. As the Associated Students Inc.
president, let me commend you on your choice to visit our
campus today, or any day.
We have many physical attractions a motivation to visit the
campus. Our land is like a park with many green areas for
picnicking and flowering trees for shade. Many art pieces
within the University Site-Specific Sculpture Collection can
be seen around the campus. The architecture is thoughtfully
designed to fit together in a common theme. The campus has
an interesting population of cats and sometimes rabbits can
be seen scurrying from one bush to another. And if you like
beautiful things, check out the Earl Burns Miller Japanese
Garden, where carefully maintained bonsai trees compliment
more than a hundred Koi fish in the pond.
The atmosphere within CSULB is another reason for visiting
campus. Members of campus -- students, faculty, staff, administration
and alumni (Yes, our alumni love the campus so much, they
keep coming back for activities such as Homecoming and the
Concert in the Grove series) -- have a deep sense of pride
based on their experiences at CSULB, appropriately called
"Beach Pride."
Anyone who stays on the campus for long will go away with
very fond memories.
CSULB is committed to fulfilling the mission of the California
State University system: To provide education to students.
Inside the classroom, our professors provide the best teaching
in America. Outside the classroom, the administration and
staff enhance student life through a framework of opportunities
to participate in organizations and services. CSULB is the
happiest place on earth for a student because we have everything
(CSULB President Robert Maxson even gives better hugs than
Mickey Mouse).
We have become a mecca of higher learning, especially in the
areas of ethical leadership development. In every program
and department, our people are learning how to lead in their
fields, and do so with the best of intentions.
When you leave the campus today, please keep us in your heart.
There is an open invitation for you to come back at anytime
and enjoy the many things we have to offer.
If you are a prospective student, talk to any student you
pass or take a tour through the University Outreach Office.
The most impacting experience in my life has been my stay
at CSULB.
GO BEACH!

A.S.I. president
