Anaheim University Tuition Relief Contributor and Body Glove Founder Bob Meistrell: Anaheim University Tuition Relief Contributor and Body Glove Founder Bob Meistrell warms up for first pitch at Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Baseball GameAnaheim University was invited to throw the first pitch at the July 8th home game between the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and the Texas Rangers, two teams battling for first place in Major League Baseball's American League West. The University asked its Tuition Relief supporter and founder of the Body Glove wet suit company Bob Meistrell to do the honors on behalf of Anaheim University.

Now what made the first pitch really exciting is that following Bob's pitch an announcement was made that impacts the pocketbooks of new students enrolling at Anaheim University. The University has extended its Tuition Relief Program, reducing the tuition fee for all new online degree applicants by 50% in order to help students in these difficult economic times.

2020 VisionAnaheim University's 2020 Vision is a commitment to Share It Forward and to make a positive impact on society and the natural environment through a series of initiatives over the next decade leading up to the year 2020. "Share It Forward" means doing your part to make the world a better place so that we can all share in the benefits for many generations to come. Share It Forward originated from the concept of "Pay It Forward", which means to ask that a good turn be repaid by having it done to others instead.
