Iveth Estrada Reyes |
Cuyamaca College student Iveth Estrada Reyes was honored at the March 26 Cesar E.
Chavez Community Breakfast in Downtown San Diego with the top prize in a
community college essay competition – a $1,000 scholarship and a new laptop
computer.
“It was an awesome experience,” said Estrada, a sociology
major who has been accepted to several of the University of California and
California State University campuses she’s applied to for this fall. “I’ve
never entered anything like this in the past, but it’s been very motivating and
I’m going to have to pursue similar opportunities in the future.”
Fellow Cuyamaca College student Likaa Mohamad took Honorable
Mention in the essay competition; Estrada and Mohamad were the only two
community college students who were honored.
