Kent Holubar honored by Stanford University

Kent, who recently celebrated 30 years on the CSUS history faculty, is becoming sort of a legend for his excellent teaching. To underscore that point, Stanford University sent him a letter acknowledging his success in the classroom with an attached note from his former student, Taylor Grossman '11.

Congratulations, Kent. Well deserved.

Amanda Stone '02 marries David Heise

Mom, Amanda and David

On Friday evening the Delta View Golf Club was light up with the glorious wedding of Amanda and David followed by dinner, toasts and dancing.

When I taught Amanda Spanish, I named her "Preciosa," and she lived up to her nick name at her wedding.

Congratulations Amanda and David!

Liz Karr Pola '88 visits Crystal

Liz came to campus today for a visit and enjoyed lunch with Tom Woosnam, Kent Holubar, Deb Hunt, Wells Wadleigh, Bill Kwong and Tim Patterson. Liz and her family are back from some serious travel, and she has lots of great stories. I taught her Spanish back in the day, and she had reason to use it for real in Spain and South America. She, Mike and the three boys are all healthy and happy.
