The event will feature a reception at 5:30 p.m. followed by the conversation, including questions from the audience, from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. in the WHCC gymnasium.

Castro will engage the community in a discussion and answer questions about Fresno State and important issues affecting the San Joaquin Valley.

"Ever since Fresno State began the Community Conversations events four years ago, I have valued meeting with hundreds of community members throughout the San Joaquin Valley," said President Castro. "In the upcoming visit to Coalinga, I am looking forward to hearing from those community members, including Bulldog alumni, who live in the western side of the Valley."  

Also present will be Fresno State Director of Athletics Terry Tumey and a representative from Fresno State’s Jordan College of Agricultural Sciences and Technology. WHCC President Brenda Thames and a WHCC student will also speak.
