Alumni Hall of Fame
Honoring Excellence | Celebrating the achievements of Santa Ana College alumni who inspire and impact our communities
Our College Hall of Fame
50 years of outstanding achievements
Santa Ana College has honored over 180 outstanding alumni from all walks of life. The tradition began in 1955 when the first three award recipients were named.
A formal Alumni Hall of Fame was developed in 1991, with a biennial ceremony to honor the inductees who have gained documented distinction and achievement through professional and/or personal efforts since leaving Santa Ana College.
Athletic Hall of Fame
Celebrating our student athletes
The SAC Athletic Hall of Fame was established in 2003 to celebrate, recognize and honor the accomplishments of individuals who have made significant contributions as a student-athlete, coach or friend to the rich tradition of the Santa Ana College athletic program. It is dedicated to preserving the college’s athletic history while providing new opportunities to transferring student-athletes through scholarships.
“SAC welcomed me with open arms when I needed it most,” expressed Mayte. “I would not be where I am today if it were not for Santa Ana College.”
Mayte Santacruz, 2003 Alumni
“There’s nothing that you’re going to lose out on by attending a community college first,” says Blanca. “SAC is the perfect springboard. You’re going to find yourself.”
Dr. Blanca Morales, 2006 Alumni
