Safety Information
As we honor our students and their loved ones today, we also ask you to take a moment to note the nearest walkways and exits around your seating area. In the unlikely event of an emergency, please remain calm, move away from the area of concern, and follow instructions from College staff, Public Safety personnel, and emergency responders. You may evacuate toward open areas or return to your vehicle. The emergency access and evacuation route for this event is Perimeter Road, which must remain clear at all times.
Please also keep the front walkways in front of Building 36, and the corridors in the seating sections open and free of obstructions.
A First Aid Station with medical staff is located in Building 36, directly behind the audience seating area.
College of San Mateo and the San Mateo County Community College District honor the right to peaceful, nonviolent expression. The fountain area in the middle of campus is the designated Free Speech Area. To ensure a safe and respectful ceremony, we ask that all demonstrations remain in that space and do not interfere with walkways, or the view of our guests.
Foreword
It was 104 years ago that residents of San Mateo and Burlingame voted to establish the very first institution of higher education in San Mateo County—San Mateo Junior College. Known today as College of San Mateo, the college has cultivated a rich history which has grown with the communities it serves. In 1922, the college welcomed the inaugural class of 30 students to a “campus” that consisted of several classrooms at San Mateo High School, then located on Baldwin Avenue. Over the next forty years, as additional space was needed for the growing student population, the college would move to the Kohl Estate (in what is now part of Central Park), the Delaware Campus, the Coyote Point Campus and finally, the College Heights Campus.
Much has changed since 1922: CSM has experienced growth, both in size and diversity. Our programs and services have evolved to support the needs of the changing student population and employers, and most recently, our current campus has been transformed. Today we serve more than 16,000 students each year. Moreover, in the past 104 years, CSM has educated more than 800,000 students!
What has not changed is CSM’s commitment to meeting the educational and workforce training needs of the community and contributing to the economic vitality of the county and beyond. As stated in Class Act: College of San Mateo - A History*, “For thousands, College of San Mateo has been a springboard to success.” Our alumni have gone on to meaningful careers and have become leaders in education, business, science and technology, medicine, entertainment, athletics, government and public service.

Student Speaker: Jane Seymour Heu I Fale Lilo Taufa
Jane Seymour Heu I Fale Lilo Taufa is a graduating student from the Class of 2026 at College of San Mateo, where she studied social sciences while also excelling as a student-athlete in track and field. Originally from the Kingdom of Tonga, Jane brings a strong sense of cultural identity, resilience, and determination to her academic and athletic journey.
At CSM, she balanced the demands of higher education with competitive athletics in the shot put, earning recognition as a two-time state championship winner. Through her time on campus, Jane developed leadership skills, discipline, and perseverance, shaped by both classroom experiences and commitment to her sport.
Her journey reflects the strength of community, family, and personal belief in overcoming challenges and striving for growth. As CSM’s 2026 commencement student speaker, Jane is honored to represent her fellow graduates and share a message of resilience, hope, and achievement.
After graduation, she has signed to continue her academic and athletic career at Appalachian State University on a full athletic scholarship, while pursuing her passion in the social sciences.
Commencement Speaker: Gabrielle Elyse Oberes Padre (“GEO”)
CSM alum Gabrielle Elyse Oberes Padre (“GEO”) is a Bay Area–based harpist and interdisciplinary
artist whose work challenges traditional perceptions of the harp through contemporary
performance, improvisation, and community-centered practice. Drawing from hip hop,
R&B, and global music influences, she repositions the harp as a dynamic instrument
within modern cultural spaces. Her work spans a wide range of environments, from international
music festivals and world-renowned museums to backyard rap shows and grassroots community
gatherings—intentionally bringing the harp into spaces where it is least expected.
She has performed at major festivals such as Outside Lands and Head in the Clouds,
as well as leading cultural institutions including the San Francisco Museum of Modern
Art (SFMOMA) and the Asian Art Museum. At both SFMOMA and the Asian Art Museum, she
became the first harpist to present a fully improvisational and interactive harp set,
inviting audiences into the creative process in real time.
As a Filipina artist, these performances mark important contributions toward representation in institutions where Filipino and Southeast Asian voices have historically been underrepresented. GEO has also opened for Kehlani and performed alongside major recording artists, further bridging classical instrumentation with contemporary music audiences. Most notably, she made history as a harpist performing as part of the Super Bowl House Band at Levi’s Stadium during Super Bowl LX, contributing to one of the largest live music platforms in the world. She is also the first harpist to perform the national anthem at a professional sports game. Beyond performance, her work is rooted in community impact. She is committed to expanding access to music education and creating inclusive spaces where audiences are encouraged to engage, participate, and experience music beyond traditional boundaries. Through her practice, GEO continues to challenge conventional pathways into music while fostering cultural connection, representation, and innovation.

Helping Students Achieve Their Dreams
Every day, we read about cutbacks in state and federal educational loan and grant programs. However, one student aid program established in 1966 stands out as a success story: San Mateo County Community Colleges Foundation.
The Foundation is a tax-exempt, 501(c)(3) organization with a mission to promote student success at the three community colleges in San Mateo County: Cañada College, College of San Mateo, and Skyline College. To that end, the Foundation raises funds for student scholarships and academic program grants. The scholarships make it more affordable for community members to enroll in and complete college, while the academic programs help students thrive while in school.
The Foundation relies on a wide range of donors, including individuals, big and small businesses, civic groups, community organizations, San Mateo County Community College District alumni, staff, and faculty, and even fellow students. This year, we are excited to share that we are awarding $2.2 million in scholarships to 1,454 students across all three campuses.
Your generous contribution to the Foundation today will help ensure the availability of this support for future generations. For more information or to donate, please contact:

Academic Dress
The commencement ceremony at College of San Mateo continues the centuries-old tradition of wearing distinctive academic dress. This custom dates back to the Middle Ages when people dressed in accordance with their rank in society and their professions. Since the clergy was the literate class at that time, today’s academic costume, which is used both at American and European colleges and universities, derives from these early clerical robes.
The Cap and Gown
Associate and bachelor degree holders wear plain black gowns and black mortarboards. The bachelor’s gown is always black and worn closed; the master’s gown is also black and may be worn open or closed. Associate’s, bachelor’s, and master’s gowns have long pointed sleeves. The doctor’s gown has round open sleeves and is trimmed with velvet panels down the front and three velvet bars on each sleeve; it is normally black and may be worn open or closed. The mortarboard’s tassel indicates the wearer’s academic degree.
The Hood
The bachelor’s hood is three feet long; the master’s, three and one-half; and the doctor’s, four, with wide panels on either side. The bachelor’s hood is rarely worn. The inside of the hood, or lining, is of silk and depicts the colors of the institution granting the degree. Master’s and doctor’s hoods are trimmed with velvet panels of varying widths. The color of the panel indicates the field in which the degree was received. Some of the most common colors are as follows: white, arts and letters; drab, business and commerce; copper, economics; light blue, education; brown, fine arts; maroon, home economics; crimson, journalism; pink, music; dark blue, philosophy; sage green, physical education; golden yellow, science; purple, law; lemon, library science; peacock blue, public administration; and scarlet, theology.
