Intimate class sizes. A nationally recognized service learning program. A football team that’s still undefeated. These are just a few things that make CSUMB an exceptional school. Built right into the green trees and gentle hills of the former Fort Ord Army base, CSUMB’s campus is an inspiring environment for students and professors alike. Extra credit: The scenic disc golf course, state-of-the-art Tanimura & Antle Family Memorial Library and concerts at the Black Box Cabaret are all open to the public, for any interested locals to enjoy.
