BROTHER 2 BROTHER RETREAT

On Friday, September 8, until Sunday, September 10, 2017; 22 CSUF undergraduate men of color ranging from freshman to seniors, stretching a variety of ethnic and cultural backgrounds boarded a charted bus at the Gastronome and headed for the hills of Orange, California at the Irvine Ranch Outdoor Education Center (Irvine Ranch).  Some young men arrived eager, while others nervously unpacked their bags as strangers; however, as the B2B Retreat commenced a collective vulnerability became customary and a sense of brotherhood began to emerge.
