For the fifth consecutive year, CSUMB sponsors the annual Student Success Auction. Dubbed the "Big Fat Greek Auction," this year's gala event-held February 13 at University Center-features both a silent and a live auction. After guests enjoy a wine-tasting, a festive family-style dinner is served by members of the faculty. Greek dancers also provide some lively entertainment.

The auction raises funds to assist students who have significant financial needs, with the proceeds benefiting the following programs:

  • Presidential Access Computer Loan Program ~ provides computers for students who need a computer for school work
  • Ron Cisneros Vision Student Scholarship ~ supports high-achieving, first-generation, low-income, and historically underserved students
  • Future Scholars Program ~ supports first-year students who have overcome major obstacles to attend CSUMB
  • Emergency short-term loans for needy students
