City College Alumna Moves Equity Programs Forward

Sep 1, 2022 | By Office of Communications

Bianca Elisa Arellano, student services technician for Equity Programs at San Diego City College, is supporting students with stories just like hers to fulfill their academic and professional goals. “This feels full circle to be in the exact position that helped me as a student,” said Arellano, who went to City College from 2011 to 2015 and was a member of the Puente program. “Puente taught me about self-advocacy, my identity, and culture. You thrive in the environment that empowers you. I never imagined in high school that I would be in a Ph.D. program, and it is all because of City College.”
