As university folklórico groups, it is our responsibility to be ambassadors for our communities. It is also our responsibility to provide the safe space for constructive discourse and study to take place. We take the responsibility to be mentors to local folklórico groups in both schools and our communities and help bridge the gap of folklórico dancers and musicians that stay in the community and those that leave to go to college. It is only by working interdepentently as compañeros, amigos, hermanos y hermanos, as a collective of individuals that we will educate ourselves and those after us of the legacy our passion has left and yet prepare them for the challenge it poses. It is our mission to continue the siembra, to take back what we have learned and shared y sembrar las semillas de la consciencia. Así, continuará nuestra música, nuestros bailes, nuestra cultura, nuestra historia. Esas semillas que sembraremos no solo serán un testamento de lo que aquí acordamos, sino también serán un testamento de agradecimiento a nuestros abuelos, abuelas, maestros y maestras, nuestros líderes, guerrilleros de nuestra gente. Lo hacemos en honor a nuestras raíces, nuestros antepasados, y con las esperanzas, no, la certeza de que un día, nuestros hijos podrán cosechar los frutos abundantes de nuestra comunidad. ¡Continúen la lucha, continúen la canción, continúen el zapateado, que todo junto, dice muy bonito, Quienes son! --Josh Vazquez

In November of 1963, the student body approved the building of the Student Union and pledged to support its construction by paying student fees. Construction of the 144,000 square foot building, designed by the Palo Alto architectural firm of Ernest J. Krump and Associates, began in 1967. The Union was opened in the Fall of 1969 and cost in excess of $5 million, including furnishings. No state money (tax dollars) was used in the construction of the building. The construction of the Student Union was funded by monetary donations. A federal loan of $3.2 million was obtained and is being paid over a period of 40 years. During the 1980's, the process of the 1960's was repeated again. Students voted to pay a fee that would finance the building of a recreation and event center. Three different elections were held; additional student fees were collected and the facilities were constructed. In May 1988, the Aquatic Center opened and in the following year, the Event Center opened. The Student Union fee, which every student pays each semester, goes towards repayment of the bonds on all of the facilities, as well as supports a percentage of the annual operating costs of the buildings. After forty years of dedicated service, the Student Union building on the San José State University Campus is being expanded and renovated to better suit the needs of a larger and more diverse student body. The new structure will feature services and facilities geared specifically toward campus needs, including more space for students to study, more services to meet community demands, and more facilities for university organizations. The Student Union, Inc. is bringing More Campus Life.
