Honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 🤍

Today, we pause to reflect on the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
A legacy rooted in courage, service, equity, and the unwavering belief that progress is built through compassion and collective action.

At CSUSB, we honor Dr. King not just in words, but in our commitment to inclusion, education, and community impact—today and every day.

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is: What are you doing for others?”

On December 11, Students from the Sports and Entertainment Marketing Program, along with Dr. Ari Kim, had a great time attending the Inland Empire 66ers Business Mixer - a long-standing partner of our program. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with local business leaders and enjoy a behind-the-scenes tour of San Manuel Stadium.

Thank you to the Inland Empire 66ers for the invitation and continued partnership. We truly appreciate it!
A special congratulations to student Jadon Williams, who was a raffle winner and took home a unique art piece!

Each spring, our Advanced Sports Marketing Planning and Strategy class hosts CSUSB Night at the 66ers as a course project, and we’re already looking forward to creating another great event next spring.

Thank you to the Inland Empire 66ers for the invitation and continued partnership. We truly appreciate it!
