Jose Hernandez of Salinas, Hearst Scholar

To say that José Hernández is having a fabulous year is an understatement. First, he gets selected to go to Harvard and represent Salinas for the launch of Lady Gaga's Born This Way foundation.

Now he gets selected as one of the 23 scholars in the California State University system.

Way to go, José!

"I'm really excited and really happy for being a nominee for this scholarship," José told me in a message.

José, a junior at Cal State Monterey Bay, works as a youth assistant at the Salinas Public Library and is getting a degree in health and human services. And is riding on cloud 9!
