Enoch Haga, who was hired to teach business education at what was then called Stanislaus State College, still cherishes the fact that he taught the first class conducted at the Stanislaus County Fairgrounds on September 19, 1960, as a charter faculty member.

“As the day approached for actual students to appear in scheduled classes, I was surprised to discover that the first class would be mine,” said Haga, now retired and living in the Sacramento area.

There were only a few students in the accounting class he taught at 8 a.m. that morning, but Haga recalls that students conducted a systems study project for MedicAlert. Haga said he took a $300 a month pay cut after teaching prisoners at the California Medical Facility in Vacaville to take the job at Stanislaus State after accepting President J. Burton Vasche’s offer.

“I asked Dr. Vasche how long I had to decide -- as I had a family to support,” Haga recalled with a laugh. “He said ‘five minutes.’ That was his pressure play.”
