Hundreds of high school girls gathered in the University Student Union Ballroom on Saturday as participants of the first Young Women's Empowerment Conference. State Senator Alan Lowenthal, a former psychology professor who taught at CSULB for 29 years, is the person responsible for this event. The conference's main goal was to inspire young women to achieve their dreams and promote a never-give-up attitude, Lowenthal said. More on this story can be found at:

This event follows last week's "Coming Out Week". Hopefully, throughout the duration of the semester The Student Union will remain a welcoming place, hosting upcoming events of positivity and outreach.
