Andrew Watson, Fresno State ’07, recently was presented with the Outstanding Graduate Award from District 7 of California Parks and Recreation Society..jpg)
About winning the award, Watson said, “It was a huge surprise and I am honored. I have worked hard and it’s nice to get an award and feel appreciated for the effort and time I have put in.”
However, Watson was not on hand to receive his award. He was in his home country of Norway completing his internship with one of the country’s top amusement/festival companies. He began full time work at that company on June 1 after receiving his degree from Fresno State in Recreation and Leisure with a certificate in special event planning.
About his experience in the Fraternity, Watson said, “If it hadn't been for my Big Brother, Arthur Sulcer, and Matt Ruiz I would never have joined the Greek life community. I regret not joining before, because the experience has been unique, and I have had some of my best moments in Fresno in the house. And I feel very unique, because besides me and my pledge brother Johan Gressberg, current president at Beta Nu, I don't think there are many Norwegians in Delta Sigma Phi's list serve.”
