Rekhi Singh - Made at Sac State - Subtitled

Rekhi Singh ’88 (M.B.A.) wants Sacramento State students to be happy. He first became interested in the science of happiness about four years ago, eventually establishing a research center on the topic at his undergraduate alma mater in India. In his personal life, he practices gratitude daily. Before going to sleep, he thinks about the things for which he is grateful, no matter how small.Now, the businessman, entrepreneur and Hornet alumnus is bringing that mind-set to Sacramento State, making a gift to the University that will establish the campus’s very first endowed professorship, the Rekhi Singh Endowed Professor in Happiness. Housed within the Department of Psychology, the position is aimed at promoting happiness through academic research, curriculum development, cross-campus partnerships and other activities.For our story: csus.edu/news/articles/2019/3/27/Alum's-gift-to-put-focus-on-the-importance-of-happiness.shtml

Rock Auction 2018-19

Sacramento State's Rock Auction, sponsored by the Geology Club, is 6-9:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 22, at the Leslie and Anita Harper Alumni Center on campus. Admission is free. The 15th edition of the auction includes more than 200 pieces available in silent and live auctions, plus catering and family-friendly features. To commemorate the 15th anniversary, a special "surprise" piece, donated by the Geology Club, will be revealed on auction day and made available for bidding. The auction originally was scheduled for Nov. 16 but was postponed when the Camp Fire necessitated the campus be closed. Geology students at Sac State are working to provide gear or monetary donations to their Chico State counterparts affected by the Camp Fire.
