Cassandra was born and raised in Merced! Merced College has been a great place for Cassandra to stretch her wings.

Jose Chapa Aguirre Excels Above and Beyond All Expectations
It is an honor and joy to nominate Jose Chapa Aguirre (JC) for student of the month. Jose has been an exemplary student in all regards. Due to his extreme limitations of vision and hearing since birth, coupled with numerous surgeries, JC has excelled above and beyond all expectations of a young man's journey.
Melissa Mouanoutoua Selected as Student of the Month
My name is Melissa Mouanoutoua, I am a mother of three girls and have been a wife for fourteen years. I was born in San Jose, California and moved here with my family in 1988. My father and my grandfather were employed on the Castle Airforce Base. Merced has always been a place that I have called home. I still live in Merced with my husband and girls.
Walker Murphy is Resilient and Optimistic
Walker is a superior student, a hard worker, a caring person, and has never let his age or his disability get in the way of accomplishing his dreams. Walker is majoring in Business and plans to transfer to Brigham Young University (BYU) or UC Merced when he graduates next May 2020 from high school and Merced College at the same time.
Blanca Ceja-Salas Selected Student of the Year
The April Student of the month and Merced College Student of the Year has always loved animals and started at the College intending to study Animal Science. It was on the Merced campus where she discovered a new passion for photography. Cejas-Salas plans on combining her two loves and dreams of becoming an animal photographer for the San Diego Zoo.
Reimann Excels as a Student and an Athlete
Justin Reimann cuts a balance that student athletes across the country routinely struggle with. He’s found a way to excel both in the classroom and on the field. Merced College’s March Student of the Month has maintained a 3.46 GPA since stepping on the campus in Fall 2017. He’s achieved all that while playing linebacker and being named defensive captain on the Blue Devil football team.
