Student Testimonials

Rowan Rajani '25 Psychology

When I was a freshman, CAPISE was not established, and I felt very isolated and alone in my experience. CAPISE gave me a place to explore not only my cultural identity, but how my other identities inform and influence my experiences and time here at San Jose State. I feel more connected to myself, my peers, and my community.

Student Affairs does a great job of empowering students to be innovators and create your own path to success. And I think that the Student Affairs' Student Involvement department is the #1 resource for students on campus.

One of the best decisions I made while being a student at 菠菜网lol正规平台 is making the decision to be a Peer Educator for 3 years. I took on different roles to support and guide my fellow students. As an S.I. Leader for the first 2 years, I facilitated group tutoring sessions in Biology and Chemistry. These interactive sessions allowed my peers to grasp high-yield topics and enhance their academic success, which was very rewarding for me to witness. Thank you to Student Affairs and the Peer Connections team!

    This March marks the fifth anniversary of the COVID-19 lockdown and the official start of the pandemic. The SJSU NewsCenter asked members of the SJSU community to recall the early days of the lockdown.

    “While no one was here, we still had to take care of a campus with more than seven million square feet of space; you cannot just turn everything off and leave to ensure the environment would be safe when people would finally be allowed back,” remembers Traci Ferdolage, senior associate vice president for Facilities, Development and Operations at SJSU.

    “It was absolutely exhausting as there was no down time, but all of the work and effort we took on was worth it to keep our campus community as safe as possible during this time. I am proud to have been part of the SJSU community and on the front lines in the response effort.”
