Certificate Ceremony

Our students were awarded certificates by Dean Sharon Duffy who also talked about her visit to our university in April when UCR Chancellor White received an honorary doctorate degree from JIU. In the photo you can see students singing the JIU song and also "Sarai."

Palm Springs

We took the Palm Springs Aerial Tram so that we could have a great view of the desert and also see the vegetation they have 11,000 feet up there. The ride itself was exciting for some and scary for others, but we all enjoyed walking around the park and the temperature was just perfect. However, once we got down and went to Cabazon, the temperature was close or above 39 degrees!

Campus tour & Citrus Park

On Thursday we had a campus tour (photo: Bell Tower) and after that we went to the Citrus Park here in Riverside. A volunteer talked about the history of Riverside and how the naval orange was first grown here. We also drank the most delicious orange juice as we left the park.
