Clinton Global Initiative-University Accepts Two CSUN MPH Students
For excellence in public health, the Clinton Foundation zeroes in on CSUN.
In rather exciting news, two CSUN MPH students, Miriam Sanchez and Ryan Skaggs, were just accepted into Clinton Global Initiative-University (CGI U). The prestigious honor, announced recently, is in recognition of the tremendous work of Sanchez and Skaggs on public health and COVID-19.
Launched in 2007, CGI U is a venture – led by President Bill Clinton – to engage the next generation of leaders on college campuses around the world. Of the thousands who applied, the Clinton Foundation chose only a select few.
As participants, Sanchez and Skaggs will take part in leadership development, mentorship, skills training, and partnership building. The initiative culminates in a year-end summit, where global leaders meet to turn ideas, such as those of our students, into action.
A big congratulations to them both!
