College of San Mateo (CSM) celebrated the remarkable achievements of its Fire Academy graduates at a heartfelt ceremony held on Thursday, December 12, in the CSM Theater. This milestone event recognized the hard work, dedication, and resilience of the 21 graduates who have completed the rigorous 16-week academy, a cornerstone of CSM’s Fire Technology program.

College of San Mateo head football coach Tim Tulloch is all about earning things on the field and for the second time in three years, the Bulldogs earned the 3C2A state championship. But there is one thing Tulloch and the Bulldogs can’t control — the rankings, which is why Tulloch doesn’t pay attention to them until after the season. So less than a week after CSM dismantled previously undefeated Mt. San Antonio College, 43-11 to win the state title, the Bulldogs (12-1) were named community college national champions by JCgridiron.com, which has been ranking community college programs and naming national champions for 20 years.

The Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement (MESA) program at College of San Mateo (CSM) recently brought students to the 2024 National Diversity in STEM (NDiSTEM) Conference hosted by the Society for the Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS) in Phoenix, Arizona.

Once the game clock ticked down and the College of San Mateo Bulldogs began a long and vibrant postgame celebration after Saturday’s state championship victory, sophomore Soa Takeifanga scooped up a game ball and made a bee line for the College Heights Stadium grandstands.

With a year of its free college initiative underway, the San Mateo County Community College District is celebrating significant increases in enrollment and equity as it looks to its sustainability going forward. 

The California community college football title will be at stake when College of San Mateo hosts unbeaten Mt. San Antonio College (12-0) in the 3C2A championship game at noon Saturday at College Heights Stadium on the CSM campus.

College of San Mateo (CSM) is pleased to announce the selection of Alex Guiriba (he/him/siya) as its next Vice President of Student Services.

The College of San Mateo women’s water polo team closed out the 2024 season with a win, a 12-3 victory at the Coast Conference tournament. The Bulldogs continued to improve as the season progressed. CSM won two of its final four games and outscored its opponents by a 48-29 margin over that span.

In just the second season back since relaunching the men’s water polo program, College of San Mateo head coach Andrew Silva continues to be impressed by the improvements made by his student-athletes.

When it comes to this time of the season, the only thing that matters is: win and advance. So it doesn’t matter that the College of San Mateo offense scored the least amount of points since a 27-14 win at Diablo Valley Oct. 18, and the defense gave up the most points since a 49-14 win over Foothill Oct. 26.
