Kimberly Collins, CSUSB professor of public administration, was quoted in an article about the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians awarding the university a $25,000 grant for its Pathways to Logistics program. Pathways prepares high school students in San Bernardino and Riverside counties for careers in managerial and professional positions in the logistics industry.
“We are honored to have the support of the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians,” said Collins, who is the executive director of CSUSB’s William and Barbara Leonard Transportation Center (LTC), which oversees the program. “Through their generosity, we will be able to hire California State University San Bernardino student ambassadors and a program manager to move forward on the Pathway to Logistics program goals. These goals were set by a group of community members to make a difference in young people’s lives and impact the future development of the Inland Empire. We truly look forward to working closely with representatives of San Manuel over the next year on the Pathway and thank them for their trust and support.”

An article about the Asian American and Pacific Islander community in the Dallas-Fort Worth region fighting back against acts of anti-Asian hate included mention of CSUSB criminal justice professor Brian Levin’s testimony at a U.S. Senate hearing in August.
Levin, director for the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism at California State University, San Bernardino, said a survey that the center conducted of major U.S. metropolitan police departments that showed a 189% increase in anti-Asian hate crimes in the first quarter of 2021 compared with the same period last year.
The article explains that the rise in anti-Asian hate coincided with the coronavirus pandemic of the last 18 months, when the AAPI community was unfairly and erroneously blamed for it.
