Remarks at 2012 Convocation:

Fullerton College Sociology Professor Angie Andrus has been an inspiration to me. I first met Professor Andrus when she put textbooks on reserve and after we spoke, she encouraged me to enroll in her marriage and family class.

I enjoyed Professor Andrus' teaching style and learned so much that I enrolled in her Sociology of Women class the next semester. In that class I learned about "herstory", not history.

I next enrolled in Professor Andrus' Gerontology class. As part of a classroom assignment, I visited a rest home in Yorba Linda where I met several elderly people diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease. This was a life-changing event for me; my respect for the elderly grew even more. 

Professor Angie Andrus' mentoring has changed my life for the better, making me a better student, colleague, father, and person.

Circulation Library Assistant James Duran is thrilled to announce the publication of his first book: Rocky's Miracle.

Rocky’s Miracle is a story about a baby’s struggle and fights for his life. Through our family’s faith and trust in God’s divine power we prayed night and day for Rocky’s miracle for healing. Through this tragic event in Rocky’s life our family learns how to grow in faith and trust God, the Hospital’s, the doctors, and each other for strength.
