2008 Hearst/CSU Trustees' Award Recipients

The California State University (CSU) is proud to present the 2008 recipients of the William Randolph Hearst/CSU Trustees’ Award for William Randolph Hearst/ CSU Trustees’ Award for Outstanding Achievement. The awards are given each year to those students who demonstrate superior academic performance, personal accomplishments, community service and financial need. Each of these outstanding award recipients receives a $3,000 scholarship.

The personal stories of these students are inspiring. They have each overcome tremendous life challenges to pursue a college degree. Yet while their commitment, drive and perseverance are extraordinary, these students are not unlike the many thousands of students who look to the CSU each year for high-quality, accessible, affordable educational opportunities. Without the CSU and scholar-ship programs such as the William Randolph Hearst/CSU Trustees’ Award for William Randolph Hearst/ CSU Trustees’ Award for Outstanding Achievement, many of these students would never have the chance to attend college and achieve their dreams.

The CSU is grateful to its many supporters for creating and sustaining this important award, especially the William Randolph Hearst Foundation, which established the initial endowment; members of the CSU Board of Trustees; and other supporters of the university who have made personal contributions.

The CSU congratulates this year’s winners whose talent, determination and drive will help build and sustain California’s future.

2008 award recipients include:
