Welcome to the CSU
Sixty-one years ago, a visionary group of women and men developed a revoluntionary plan to change the future of California by changing the future of its people through education. From that vision was born the California State University — the largest and most ethnically and economically diverse public university in the nation. The success of our students and alumni, their families and communities, and indeed this Golden State are nested in the mission, vision and values of this remarkable institution.
