Flash Mob Surprises Incoming Students at CSUSM

Students, staff and even a campus police officer surprised incoming students today at California State University San Marcos (CSUSM) when a flash mob showed off their coordinated dance moves to Tiao Cruz’s “Dynamite” following the freshmen class photo on campus.Organizers of the flash mob planned the reveal to coincide with the university’s Weeks of Welcome, which offers a number of exciting events to new and continuing CSUSM students, welcoming them to the new academic year. This fall, campus officials anticipate reaching a historic milestone as the 21-year-old university breaks record enrollment with 10,000 students.Video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUmdTUmmVtg&feature=youtu.be&hd=1About California State University San MarcosCalifornia State University San Marcos combines the ambiance of a mid-sized, personal, modern campus with the unequaled value of the California State University.
