CSM Employees News

College of San Mateo (CSM) proudly announces that seven outstanding faculty members have achieved tenure. This significant milestone is a testament to their dedication to teaching and student engagement excellence.

College of San Mateo is featured in the season 10 of The College Tour, a groundbreaking series from Emmy-nominated producers Alex Boylan, Lisa Hennessy, and Burton Roberts, which is now streaming on Amazon Prime Video.

Earlier this month, the CSM Dual Enrollment team hosted a 2-day summer experience, “Strategies for Successful Teaching in Dual Enrollment” for the college’s new and returning faculty who will be teaching dual enrollment courses in the new academic year.

Before CSM’s fall semester kicked off for students, CSM’s Vice President of Instruction Office welcomed seven new full-time faculty members during the New Faculty Orientation and Luncheon. This event facilitated interactions with VPI Dr. Carla Grandy, department mentors, and student services.

Following the announcement of Dr. Jennifer Taylor-Mendoza’s departure from College of San Mateo (CSM), Dr. Richard Storti was appointed as CSM’s Acting President by San Mateo County Community College District (SMCCCD) Interim Chancellor Melissa Moreno.

Five days of filming during finals week in May will provide a glimpse into the CSM student experience.

As a special closing for CSM’s Centennial Celebration, please join us for our President’s Advocacy Council Fundraising Dinner, an evening filled with art, jazz, culture, and soul, featuring Grammy Award-winner Tony Lindsay, benefitting student support and increasing innovation on the CSM campus! Please RSVP by March 31, 2023.

Here’s what has been accomplished since our last update in January, and what’s on the horizon for the next few months
