The Special Collections Research Center is thrilled to recognize and celebrate Eduardo Espinoza-Gonzalez, one of our two dedicated student assistants, for his recent publications in hais: A Literary Journal and the San Joaquin Review 2024. Eduardo is currently in his final year, pursuing an undergraduate degree in English with a concentration in Creative Writing and has recently been elected as the Vice President of the Hmong American Ink & Stories club. Eduardo has also been selected to be the 2024-2025 Fresno State Creative Writing Alumni Chapter Student Representative.

Eduardo’s work is currently on display in the “Close to Home: Fresno State Student Publications + Art” exhibition in the Special Collections Research Center, alongside other student art, photography, poetry, and literature spanning the past 100 years of Fresno State history. His dedication and hard work are deeply appreciated, and we are excited to see all the great things he will continue to accomplish in the future.
