This year, five more remarkable alumni join our ranks: three business leaders in music, beauty and baseball; a pioneering legislator; and a physician dedicated to building healthier communities. SFSU President Lynn Mahoney and our University community will honor the newest inductees at a celebration and dinner on Friday, Nov. 7, at the InterContinental San Francisco. This year’s inductees represent talented and diverse voices who were nurtured by the SFSU community, Mahoney says. “Three of this year’s inductees are innovators, transforming the music, beauty and sports-ticketing industries. They applied what they learned at SFSU to their organizations and raised the bar, developing new business models replicated widely by others,” she said. “The other two notable alumni overcame obstacles to pursue their dreams. They’re now dedicating their lives to serving others in politics and in medicine.” 2025 SFSU Hall of Fame inductees
