Beach Connection Fall 2009

COVER STORY: Beach Family Pride!

Did you know that there are more than 245,000 graduates from CSULB living around the world and that 24,000 of those are related. For many graduates coming to CSULB, taking part in The Beach Experience has become a family affair. In this edition of The Beach Connection, we feature and highlight some of these proud families.

Here's just a snippet of what you can find in the latest issue:

Q: What Does Beach Pride Mean To You?

The Sears Family

A: "Beach Pride is our feeling of greatness and fulfillment that stems from the knowledge that we are a part of a tradition of excellence. It is our sense of
strength, unity and achievement that extends beyond the Long Beach State campus and into the entire Long Beach community. Beach Pride is our appreciation for the entire 49er family." - Constance Sears
