CSUSB and NIMS University, India, have agreed to a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to foster academic excellence and support cross-cultural understanding.
Three friends of Cal State San Bernardino – Shelby Obershaw, Ingeborg Schuler and Terrance L. Stone – were honored at the annual event for their contributions to the university and the community.
“America’s prosperity is intrinsically tied to the ability of our collective work as public institutions of higher education to deliver on America’s promise,” Tomás D. Morales said in his President-to-Presidents Lecture at the American Association of State Colleges and Universities national conference.
Nathan Brunet (psychology) and Zachary Powell (criminal justice) published a study on whether “an individual’s trust in law enforcement affects their perception of the emotional facial expressions displayed by police officers,” and Mike Stull (entrepreneurship) was quoted in articles about the Entrepreneurial Resource Center in downtown San Bernardino.
The university was selected by American Association of State Colleges and Universities’ awards committee for its CSUSB President’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Board initiative and “its outstanding results and potential to influence and serve as a model for other institutions.”
The Entrepreneurial Resource Center, a partnership between the city of San Bernardino and Cal State San Bernardino, is designed to be an easily accessible hub for small business services, centrally located in the city’s downtown.
The university is a 2023 Equity Champion of Higher Education for Black Students, one of five California State Universities that are being honored “for working with intentionality to support Black students via the Associate Degree for Transfer” by the Campaign for College Opportunity.
Cross-cultural understanding and academic excellence is the foundation on which the academic exchange agreement between the two educational institutions is built.
The center, an initiative developed by the city of San Bernardino and Cal State San Bernardino, makes its home in Studio D, located on the fifth floor of the Chase Building, 330 North D St., next to City Hall.
