Sam Enriquez

Sam Enriquez
Above the Fold at the Wall Street Journal

Just a month after his promotion to national news editor of the Wall Street Journal in 2008, Sam Enriquez found himself reaching back more than two decades to his courses in economics from California State University, Dominguez Hills.

That fall, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc., a global financial services firm and then the fourth-largest investment bank in the U.S., declared bankruptcy, ushering in a historic autumn of frozen credit markets and government bailouts as the national and global economy teetered on the brink of collapse. After years of reporting and editing general news, Enriquez said, with understatement, that what he learned in his macroeconomics classes would ”prove immensely important” in helping him understand, interpret and help edit the daily onslaught of news that evolved into the biggest story of the decade.

Once a Toro, Always A Toro

The 2013 Senior Gift is a magnificent stepping stone. This program allows seniors to join together for the last time as a class and leave a lasting impression on campus. This fundraising campaign will challenge the Class of 2013 to make a leadership gift that represents their class year. All proceeds will go towards the University Library! All seniors are encouraged to participate to ensure the success of this program while making a difference for tomorrow’s students.

  • Live up to the Challenge. The Class of 2012 left their legacy by donating two scholarships to the winners of ASI Toro Tuesdays.
  • The Class of 2013 has voted and this year’s iGave campaign will support the University Library so that additional iPads can be purchased and meet the demands of the laptop loan program.

What Is Senior Gift?

  • It's a fundraising campaign among the Class of 2013 seniors that raises money to support undergraduate financial aid, student group and community center funding, and academic programs.
  • Senior Gift is a class milestone. One that will have an immediate and lasting impact on the next generation of CSUDH students.
  • This money does not go to the endowment. It will be spent immediately and used to help current students.
  • By making a gift of $20.13 or more to the Igave campaign, you will help CSUDH continue to meet the needs of students by adding value to the University library.
