12 ceremonies. One unforgettable weekend. And we’re not stopping ’til we celebrate every Bronco whose earned their degree 🎓 Congratulations @calpolypomona Class of 2026. We’re cheering you on all weekend long! 💚💛
He began as a bus driver. Now he’s driving the future of transportation! 🚌➡️📍
When Lucas LeVieux discovered a bus route to high school as a teenager, he found more than a ride. He found a passion that would change his life. After working as a bus driver, he came to CPP to study urban and regional planning and turned that experience into a career path.
After graduation, he’s headed into a full-time role in sustainable transportation planning, helping design more connected communities across Southern California.

APSA students connected with planners from across the country and explored real-world challenges at the APA National Planning Conference in Detroit.
APSA funded 15 undergraduate students to attend with support from alumni, donors, Associated Students Inc. at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, and the Cal Poly Pomona College of Environmental Design URP department. Combined with graduate and self-funded students, CPP was strongly represented with 34 students total!
We conducted a post-trip survey—here are a few standout experiences:
▪ “Community Hubs of the Future was an interactive workshop where I worked in a group to redesign bus stops into a mobility hub. This helped me understand the concept of the mobility hub, which I had previously discounted as just a fancy name for a transit center.”
▪ “An Even Better Way to Zone was a great session. Focusing on how to make language in zoning code more focused on what can be done, rather than what can’t.”
▪ “As a student planner working on complete streets in the Inland Empire, one panel that had a profound impact on me was called Complete Streets Means Trucks, Too!”
▪ “I went to a really cool one about how the City of Boise’s Planning Department made a comic book to educate the public on zoning!!”
▪ “Connecting with Aditi Galande had a strong impact on me because her connections with AIA and APA and interdisciplinary background showed me it is possible to be involved in both the Architecture and Urban Planning field.”
Beyond sessions, the impact of this trip extended to student confidence, access, and professional identity:
▪ “NPC is a great way to get students out of the California planning bubble and learn about unique issues and strategies in other US cities.”
▪ “This conference changed my life… I never could have imagined something like this would be possible for someone like me.”
▪ “It strengthened bonds between cohorts… I got to see a city I would’ve never explored through a new Planning perspective.”
