Educational Opportunity Program
The Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) serves as a primary vehicle for the CSU in increasing the access, academic excellence and retention of California's educationally and economically disadvantaged students, thus working in the spirit and abiding by the legislative intent that originally established the program in 1969.
Asian, Desi, Pacific, and Islander Center (ADPIC)
The Asian, Desi, & Pacific Islander Collective seeks to enhance the overall Asian American Experience at Humboldt by celebrating and embracing the diverse ADPI cultures through events, workshops, seminars. The Collective challenges perspectives and narratives of self and the various institutions/systems that continue to oppress people today. Our ultimate goal is to establish a Center for Academic Excellence for Asian, Desi, & Pacific Islander Students.
