President Saúl Jiménez-Sandoval introduced a new meet-and-greet space on campus on March 16, when he connected with students, faculty and staff, answered questions and listened to ideas and concerns.
The booth, constructed by three students for the Lyles College of Engineering, now stands alongside the booths of student-run organizations on the main path that leads to the Fresno State Library, between the University Student Union and University Center.
“I want to reach the students in a very direct way and connect on a more personal level, which is why I went with a booth,” Jiménez-Sandoval said. “The goal is to establish a culture where students know who their president is and that the president cares about them.”
Jiménez-Sandoval plans to visit the booth about twice each month, and will also invite deans and other administrators to answer questions and build a stronger connection with the campus community through direct lines of communication.
