The conferral of an associate degree is an achievement for which you have worked incredibly hard, and it is an honor to join you in celebrating this special occasion. At Citrus College, commencement is the annual event we look forward to more than any other. One of our most cherished traditions, it represents the culmination of hard work, commitment and dedication. I hope that this year’s virtual festivities fill you with a well-deserved sense of accomplishment. Although your path to graduation was not without its challenges, you faced each obstacle with tenacity and determination.

The Citrus College Class of 2021 will forever be remembered as an exceptional group of students who showed themselves to be both resilient and resourceful. Of course, few people accomplish their goals without excellent support systems. For this reason, I extend my most sincere gratitude to those individuals who have stood beside you throughout your time at Citrus College. From the faculty and staff who have contributed to your academic growth to the family and friends who have provided encouragement, the care and assistance of these individuals have been invaluable. As you prepare to enter the next stage of your lives, I encourage you to maintain the enthusiasm and resolve that brought you this far.

2021 Citrus College Commencement 1 DISTINGUISHED ALUMNI AWARD
Art Vasquez
Art Vasquez – successful entrepreneur, owner of Rancho Vasquez and former Citrus College student – was selected to receive the 2021 Distinguished Alumni Award. Born in Azusa, Mr. Vasquez is the eldest child of parents Joe and Ernestine Vasquez. Growing up in the 1950s, Mr. Vasquez learned from his grandfather about avocado trees, irrigation practices, fertilizing and everything else required to maintain land. Mr. Vasquez and his brother helped their dad, who had purchased an acre of property across the street from the Foothill Dairy, by picking avocados and selling them in the neighborhood from a red wagon for 10 cents apiece or a dozen for a dollar. In his teens, Mr. Vasquez began working at a gas station pumping gas, cleaning windshields and performing other basic car repairs. The experience, as well as working at his family’s restaurant, taught him how to run a business and treat customers fairly. Following his high school graduation, Mr. Vasquez continued working as a mechanic. After marrying his wife, Geri, and becoming a father in 1970, Mr. Vasquez was then drafted by the U.S. Army and served at Fort Richardson (now Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson) in Alaska. While serving, he worked as a tactical mechanic and in the civilian motor pool. Upon completing his military service, Mr. Vasquez returned to Southern California, working as a mechanic 60 hours a week and taking automotive technology classes at Citrus College simultaneously. Mr. Vasquez praised Citrus College’s cutting-edge automotive curriculum in the 1970s and its inspirational faculty, such as Terry Smith. Mr. Vasquez recalled not being able to see nearby mountains due to smog, and he felt inspired to clean the air in Southern California. After attending Citrus College, Mr. Vasquez took real estate and business courses at California State University, Los Angeles. Mr. Vasquez later opened a gas station around 1975 before working several decades in the smog equipment business. This smog company later became Worldwide Environmental Products, which did business throughout the United States and in countries like Canada, China and South Korea. In the early 2000s, Mr. Vasquez purchased 100-plus acres that contained hundreds of avocado trees. After getting serious about the avocado orchard, Mr. Vasquez began working the land, which is now known as Rancho Vasquez. Today, the farm is home to approximately 3,700 trees. In addition to selling avocados to restaurants, Rancho Vasquez also sells directly to organic markets and is open to the public during harvest season. In addition to his accomplishments, Mr. Vasquez has given back to his community by coaching Little League and Pony League for 25 years. He also sat on the Canyon City Foundation Board of Directors. Mr. Vasquez, who is now a great-grandfather, has five children and lives in Azusa. He and Geri have been married for more than 50 years.
2 2021 Citrus College Commencement DISTINGUISHED FACULTY AWARD
Senya Lubisich, Ph.D.
Senya Lubisich, Ph.D., is the 2021 recipient of the Citrus College Distinguished Faculty Award. Selected for this honor by her colleagues, Dr. Lubisich is both grateful and deeply touched. “In my opinion, every faculty member has distinguished themselves this year,” she said. “I am humbled that they chose me for this recognition.” For nearly two decades, Dr. Lubisich has served the Citrus College Social and Behavioral Sciences and Online Education Division with passion and determination. Teaching history and humanities courses since 2004, she credits her success to the “incredible support” she has received. “I have benefitted greatly from mentorships and guidance,” she said. “I appreciate all those who have shared their expertise and experience with me.” Dr. Lubisich holds a doctorate in European history from the University of California, Riverside (UCR), and is a certified online instructor. Her fields of study were European history, with a teaching emphasis in world history. Prior to joining the Citrus College community, Dr. Lubisich taught at a variety of community colleges throughout California. She also taught at several private universities and was a lecturer at UCR. During her time at Citrus College, Dr. Lubisich has served as an executive board member of the Academic Senate and as a member of the Curriculum Committee. She has also served as an advisor for the Chess Club and the History Club and is an avid supporter of the college’s study abroad program. In fact, Dr. Lubisich has travelled to Florence, Italy, and Kyoto, Japan, with Citrus College students. Currently, she holds an executive board position with the Citrus College Faculty Association and serves as the online education faculty coordinator. When she is not at Citrus College, Dr. Lubisich is very involved in her community. She is an active reader and docent at the Huntington Library in San Marino. Dr. Lubisich is also quite knowledgeable in the area of historic preservation, having completed training with the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Using this expertise, she serves the city of San Gabriel as chair of the Historic Preservation and Cultural Resources Commission. In this role, she works to nominate historic sites to state and national registers. Dr. Lubisich’s interest in public history and culture led her to create the nonprofit, Friends of La Laguna. This organization focuses on the preservation of historic playgrounds, specifically those featuring playground sculptures by Mexican concrete artist Benjamin Dominguez. The group has received grants for their restoration efforts from the Annenberg Foundation, the California Cultural and Historical Endowment, and the National Trust. In her free time, Dr. Lubisich loves to travel with her husband and five children. She says they are always looking for their next destination. When they can’t travel, they enjoy cooking, reading and hiking together. “I have a family that always supports and encourages me – even when I am taking time from them,” she says. “Any success I have had sits on the shoulders of an incredible network of support.” Included in this network are Dr. Lubisich’s Citrus College colleagues. “In a year in which I have had the tremendous opportunity to work with and get to know more faculty than ever before, not once did I find that my colleagues were unwilling to step forward and work with me,” she said. “I am grateful to work with incredible people and look forward to being back on campus.”
