In elementary school, María Angélica Hernández was used to tagging along on all of her brother’s Cub Scout field trips. The day they visited the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, though, was different. There, space exploration and NASA’s rover, Opportunity, captured her imagination, turning into a lifelong passion.
“Ever since then, I’ve always wondered what we’re doing out in space and how NASA is changing the world with technology,” the Class of 2021 graduate shared.
Hernández arrived at CSUF as a transfer student, eager to be part of the university’s well-regarded communications program. Her desire to tell stories led her to focus on public relations and corporate communications. However, as the first person in her immediate family to attend college, it wasn’t always easy.

A team of four WSU students are awaiting their score sheets after their public relations campaign won an honorable mention for the 2021 Bateman Case Study Competition.
Emily Harris, Bateman competition team leader and senior public relations major, said it was amazing to get recognized, especially because there were 54 teams nationwide.
Sherwin Francies, writing and research director for the Bateman competition and senior public relations major, said he was still sleeping when he received a call from another team member, Steffi Ludahl, social media coordinator for the competition and senior public relations major.
“The first thing she said was, ‘We didn’t place, but we got honorable mention,’” Francies said. “And it was bittersweet because we were really expecting to place, but we still received an honorable mention, which is huge.”
