Blue Devil Alumni and Success Stories
Alumni Bree Migliazzo
Bree Migliazzo saw an opportunity and jumped. In January, the energetic mother of two would never have guessed she’d have to fulfill her dream of running a business in the middle of a pandemic.
Alumni Stephanie Dietz
Stephanie Dietz wasn’t handed the Merced City Manager reins. No, they were suddenly flung back, and she hustled to snatch them out of mid-air.
Alumni Joseph Trujillo
"The hardest part now [during my medical training] is exactly what they say, ‘The more you know, the more you realize what you don’t know.’ . . . You have no choice but to grow up and learn from it."
Alumni Tim Slenders
The Chowchilla native, Merced College alumnus and new Mariposa County sheriff, was minding his business with his peers at Fresno City College Police Office Standards and Training (POST) graduation on July 15. Then someone started talking about a special graduate, the Top Cadet of the graduating class. And then he called Slenders’ name.
Alumni Assemblymember Adam Gray
Adam Gray is a true son of Merced County, having graduated from Golden Valley High School (1996) and earned his credits at Merced College before transferring to UC Santa Barbara and graduating there in 2000. Now Gray is making his professional mark on behalf of Merced County and much of Stanislaus County while serving in the State Assembly since his election in 2012.
Alumni Jill Cunningham
Jill Cunningham has taken on Merced College, not once, but twice so far in her lifetime. Cunningham first came to the College after graduating from Le Grand High School “in the 80s.” Here she earned 60 credits, and then transferred to American University in Washington, D.C. Her second trip is ongoing. A longtime political operative in our nation’s capital and the Bay Area, she returned in 2017 to serve as Associate Vice President of External Relations and Executive Director of the Merced College Foundation. For our alumni issue, Cunningham now ruminates on her experiences as a Blue Devil—the one that was preordained, and the one that brought her home.
