The UniversiTyLocated in Carson, just 13 miles south from LAX

and minutes from the South Bay beaches, California State University, Dominguez Hills sits on a 346-acre campus that shares space with the Home Depot

Center, home to the L.A. Galaxy and Chivas USA soccer teams.

The University boasts an environment that provides a distinct advantage for its students by embracing the surrounding community. CSUDH’s diverse demographics are shown through every possible dimension: cultural, ethnic, age, gender, religious, economic and intellectual. Serving students locally, nationally and internationally, the Carson campus allows students to pursue a higher education while being able to develop the skills necessary for the working world after graduation. By creating a balance between the desired social atmosphere of a small campus and the cultural and academic possibilities available at a larger university, ample opportunities exist to quench the desire for intellectual development.

QA

Does CSUDH have agood athleticsprogram?

Cal State Dominguez Hills is an NCAA Division II institution that competes in the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA). Although CSUDH is one of the younger schools in the conference, we are one of the most athletically competitive and honored schools in the CCAA, with 26 conference titles and five national championships to date.

The Athletics Department was founded in 1968 with the inception of the school’s first intercollegiate team in men’s golf, which was founded by the Toros’ first ever Athletics Director, Dr. John Johnson. “Dr. J,” as he’s affectionately known, continues his role to this day as the head coach of the men’s golf team and currently is the oldest active coach in the NCAA - a true living legend, indeed!

In a letter dated April 1969, Chairman of the 2nd Ad Hoc Committee on College Symbols Thomas S. Bullock announced that the CSUDH student body voted on Cardinal and Gold as the school’s colors, and a bull to replace the existing “Gypsy Dancer” as its new mascot.

The bull, since referred to as the Toro, was derived from the “Dominguez Family history of cattle ranching,” and will also “be well adapted to team symbols, etc.” Luckily for both CSUDH and our newly-adapted school mascot, the volatile nature of a bull’s temperament deterred Chairman Bullock from keeping a live example on campus.
