This last Saturday, this year's Puente students as well as two phase 3 students and the Puente team, attended the Puente Motivational conference held at UC Davis. Students listened to motivational speeches from transfer students and the keynote speaker, Dr. Francisco Rodriguez, President of Cosumnes River College.
The students also enjoyed a talent show and attended transfer and general topic workshops.
