2016 CASPgrads Lunch
Greetings Chancellor's Associates Scholars,
Congratulations to our recent CASP graduates! It has been an amazing journey to see our first CASP students who helped build the community that CASP has become now graduate. Students worked as CASP Peer Mentors, CASP-OASIS Learning Community Mentors, and at CASP 101 to make incoming students feel like they have a community on campus before school even started. This group has been integral in making CASP what it is today. We hope that this is the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our graduates. We wish them the very best!
As we say farewell to one group, we are also excited to greet our newest incoming CASP scholars. Starting with CASP 101 this summer, a whole new group of amazing individuals will become part of the UC San Diego family.
In this issue you will find information on:

CASP website
