The club’s current President, Mario E. Perez, and founding member Torilynn Qualls are some of those responsible for the creation of the new AAF chapter.

Both students are also part of the on-campus Coyote Advertising team, CSUSB’s most prestigious advertising agency that recently won Bronze and Silver awards during the Student ADDY’s.
Under the Jacob Poore, the club’s advisor and AAF District 15 Secretary, the aspiring students found the tools needed to help the chapter grow. “To establish and academic extension of the American Advertising Federation to the California State University, San Bernardino campus.” This direct quote comes from the chapter’s very own constitution and aims to focus its efforts in the following areas: Experience within the field of advertising, real world project implementation, mentorship, and networking. By having a synergistic relationship with Coyote Advertising, the AAF chapter at CSUSB will do much to not only expand upon its membership, but its participation within AAF national within its regional competitions and events.
