President Qayoumi tours the Washington Square Winter Wonderland created by the Alumni Association's Clifton Gold.

Snowmen, polar bears, and penguins are dancing across the windows of the University Advancement suite in Clark Hall, where SJSU Alumni Association Events and Outreach Coordinator Clifton Gold has decked the halls. A man of many talents, Gold worked after hours to design and paint wintry scenes of campus on six glass panels. The tableau features a whole bunch of familiar if frosty landmarks including Tower Hall, Spartan Stadium and the fountains and gates that grace San Jose State. In the lobby, a carousel horse, gingerbread men and gifts beckon staff to give generously to the UPD Holiday Toy Drive. Assisting Gold were two elves, Events and Project Coordinator Valerie Gonzales and her sister Laurice Rubalcava. View more photos.
