President Haynes To Deliver Final Report to the Community

San Marcos, CA — Cal State San Marcos President Karen Haynes will deliver her 15th and final Report to the Community on Thursday, Feb. 7.

More than 600 individuals representing a broad cross section of regional business, nonprofit, education and government leadership are expected to attend the sold-out event where President Haynes will highlight CSUSM accomplishments, trends and the 29-year-old institution’s role in advancing the public good.

During the event, President Haynes will announce the final fundraising total of Forward Together, the university’s first comprehensive campaign, a seven-year initiative that officially ended on Dec. 31. The goal for the campaign was $50 million.

This will be the final Report to the Community for President Haynes, who announced in September that she will be retiring at the end of the current academic year.
