The CSUSM Alumni Advisory Council and chapter leadership were honored to tour Black Oak Hall and Kwíila Dining yesterday.

The seven-story residence hall – which includes a 10,000-square-foot dining facility – has 555 beds, providing affordable housing for underserved, low-income students.

Opening in the Fall 2026 semester, the project will expand access to affordable, on-campus housing while reflecting the university’s ongoing commitment to student success.
