Poems from World War II Japanese American incarceration focus of panel presentation
Nancy Matsumoto, who translated the poems of her grandparents, Tomiko and Ryokuyō Matsumoto, and Eri Yasuhara, dean emerita of CSUSB’s College of Arts and Letters, will be among the panelists for the program, “By the Shore of Lake Michigan,” presented by the CSUSB Libraries at 2 p.m. Tuesday, April 29.

The university and the high school district, through a memorandum of understanding, will launch the High School University Program (HSUP), which allows qualified students to begin their college education before they graduate from high school.

The immersive program, which took place during their spring break in April, was designed to provide students with firsthand exposure to the vibrant hospitality industry of Italy and offered participants hands-on learning and professional development opportunities.

CCGI, in partnership with CSUSB’s Division of Strategic Enrollment Management and Marketing Communications, led interactive sessions throughout the day during which participants learned how to maximize CCGI’s capabilities to support college and career readiness efforts in schools across the region.
