Super Sunday is a phenomenal way to bring the church and the CSU System together. As an alumni and person of faith I believe this partnership will prove to be the tool that is needed to bridge the gap between institutions of higher learning and the African American community. The fact that the Chancellor Reed and the various CSU President’s are out in the community reveals thier genuine desire to see that minorities are presented with opportunities for success. I am truly grateful for the education I received from the CSU System.
