For the first time, Stanislaus State in collaboration with the California State University celebrated and recognized Juneteenth as a federal holiday.
Posters in the Warrior Cross Cultural Center commemorating the promise of the historical event of June 19, 1865, were on display for a week leading up to the Monday, June 20, holiday, when a campus forum led by Disability Resource Director Marvin Williams, some 30 students, faculty, staff and administrators heard what it means to be Black at Stan State and discussed ways to make the experience better.
