The San Bernardino Valley College Foundation is proud to announce the establishment of the Berglas-Libran Theatre Scholarship, created by SBVC alumnus Devon Libran in honor of Professor Ron Berglas and the lasting impact of his mentorship and teaching.

After taking a course with Professor Berglas, Devon discovered a deeper appreciation for theatre and the arts. Now, he is giving back to help future SBVC students discover creative paths of their own. The scholarship will support students who demonstrate a commitment to the arts and encourage them to explore, grow, and contribute to the creative community.

We are grateful to alumni like Devon who return to Valley to honor the people and experiences that shaped their journeys while creating opportunities for the next generation of Wolverines. 💙

Catholic Charities San Bernardino & Riverside Counties presented a $10,000 gift to establish the Catholic Charities Nicholas and Sophia Kosta Education Scholarship.

Made possible through the generosity of a donor committed to expanding educational opportunities, this endowed scholarship will provide tuition assistance to SBVC students for generations to come.

What a wonderful evening welcoming Wolverines back home! 💙💛

Last Thursday’s Alumni & Chamber Mixer brought together alumni, local business leaders, and community members for an evening of networking, reconnecting, and celebrating the SBVC community.

A heartfelt thank you to all of our Chamber partners for participating and encouraging your members to attend. It was especially exciting to discover how many of them are proud SBVC alumni! There is something truly special about seeing Wolverines return to the campus where their journeys began.

From great conversations and new connections to fun raffle prizes, the evening was filled with community, laughter, and school pride. Thank you to everyone who joined us—we can’t wait to see you back on campus again soon!
