The Fall Semester was quite the introduction to life as a college student. My whole life I had been told that college would be much easier than high school. Of course, all good things take a little effort to absorb. While college has been stressful, I look forward to many things, including graduation!
The Peralta Community College District Marketing team was thrilled to participate in Welcome Week activities, visiting Berkeley City College, College of Alameda, Laney College, and Merritt College to hand out free college-branded hoodies and t-shirts to students who then modeled them. We had an outstanding turnout, including many returning students from last semester's event. Thank you so much to the 200+ students who modeled for us!

Being in high school or a freshman in college, all you hear about is what major you are considering. It is a daunting thing for most as this is what dictates what will come out on your diploma and what classes you will be taking. For others, they already have a few choices or one set choice in mind as they have a pretty clear idea of their dream career. For a concerning minority, they choose a random major they believe will be the “easiest” or genuinely don’t have anything in mind. Whatever the situation students may be in, at some point they will need to declare a major.
Welcome to the Peralta Colleges – we're glad you’re here! Here's some info that might be useful in your first week of the Spring Semester.

Many people go to universities for the “college experience” when programs such as UMOJA can provide just as rich experiences along with opening up new doors and connections to cultures and opportunities. UMOJA, like any other student support system, aims to assist the students who join its program. Where UMOJA stands out though is in the experiences they give to their scholars who join and how deeply connected they are to the African Diaspora community.
