>> You know, when I first came to Cal State Long Beach, I attended a teamwork event,
and I can't recall what the name of it was,
but it was a three-day overnight event, and I didn't know anybody.
And when I went there I was nervous and I wasn't quite sure that's really what I wanted to do,
but after being there those few days, when I left,
I really felt like that was the right choice, and it just made me have a sense
of belonging here at Cal State Long Beach.
And going forward I just felt like it was a great place to be;
the diversity, I never felt like I stood out.
I loved it.
