Favorite Place on Campus: Hepner Hall – It reminds me of my time as a student at SDSU. I had many classes in the College of Professional Studies and Fine Arts (PSFA) building and I walked through Hepner Hall almost daily. Beautiful memories!
Favorite Campus Eatery: Starbucks by the Conrad Prebys Aztec Student Union – I love the great view of campus and the outdoor seating is very nice.

There is so much history and beauty to explore and it’s only a few minutes away from campus.
