Aztec of the Month

Brenda Arteaga I am Single-Subject student in the teaching credential program. I

transferred out of IVC to SDSU-IV during the fall of 2016 to work on

my B.A in History. My time at SDSU-IV has been incredibly eye-

opening and educational experience. Not just in terms of academics,

but lifelong knowledge. This campus is where I came into myself as a

person. It's where I realized what my true calling was. It's where I met

people that changed my life for the better. It's the place where I

matured the most. And it's the place where I found my true love:

traveling. While in the Undergrad program, I was involved with Aztecs

Around the World and studied abroad in Ireland during the summer of

2018. I also got to travel through the United Kingdom and France. This

was one of the most enriching experiences I've ever had, despite how

awful my sunburns were. I'm absolutely positive none of this would

have happened without the help of SDSU-IV, its wonderful instructors,

or my amazing classmates. I also maintained a 4.0 GPA for the entirety

of my program. At the time of my graduation, I was chosen as the

Outstanding Graduate Senior in History (2018). I chose to come to

SDSU-IV because I feel that our small campus exemplifies some of the

values that I hold very dear. SDSU-IV has a tight-knit sense of

community, smaller class sizes, value for money, and the opportunities

to create bonds with both my classmates and professors. I hope to

become a history teacher at a middle or high school level. I plan to

continue my education by earning a master's or even a doctorate's

degree in my field, so I can then teach at a college level. If all goes

well, I may even find myself working at this wonderful campus as a

history professor.
