Special to El Rrun-Rrun
With only trustee Tony Zavaleta absent due to illness, the motion to rename it was made by TSC board president Adela Garza and seconded by trustee Delia Saenz and passed without dissent.
Said trustee Alejandra Aldrete: "I would like to say that he deserves this recognition because he was the pioneer wanting to make the legal center."
Trustee Delia Saenz: "I had the honor and the privilege of working with Ruben...and he was most enthusiastic about this project. He talked to everybody about it. He got everybody on board. I remember the day we went to the federal courthouse and he told us 'our building is going to look like this.'...and he said, 'our students deserve only the best. And we're going to have the best.' And look what was raised. We have a building like no other. I know Ruben would be very proud to see the progress that has taken place in this past year. We're going to miss this next week when we have the first mock trial. I just want to say that it's an honor to have that building named after Ruben."
Trustee Dr. Norma Lopez-Harris: "I know how passionate he was with this legal center and he is most deserving of this named for him. I'm very happy for that."
Trustee Edgar G. Garcia, P.A.: "For me it is an honor of a lifetime for me to be filling in his shoes and legacy he left behind...For me that motivates me and propels me to continue on the legacy he has built...and doing this for him., I think is a great tribute to his legacy to the continuation of many generations to follow.""
Trustee Edward C. Camarillo: "There is no doubt that he has left a positive impact on this campus. When he was supporting my campaign and me, I knew that he was doing it for the love of TSC. It is quite fitting that this building and all his efforts that went into this was for future generations...I know he is missed every single day."

Inside job. . . . . . . Fact.
That's a sad looking hoard room
What do they do with the money
Naming something after themselves is classless. Maybe if the community had insisted on it.
Not cool, Adela. Not cool.
Ruben Herrera is very happy about this. He wanted to be part of all this and for people to recognize his work.
Keep it!
Get better Tony
Herrera was a very nice guy.
Adela is not doing her job. Tony is never coming back, and she knows it. He served community college honorably and needs to be replace with a clear statement of gratitude for his service.
is he comin or leavin camarillo confused as always
they need a bigger round table they spit at each other. someone might get sick (more)!!!
