NOTE FROM PRESIDENT ELAM
This past weekend, President Elam was inaugurated as our 16th president in a joyous Hillside Theater ceremony featuring a number of musical performances, as well as a call to bring “New Harmonies” to an Occidental liberal arts education. Thank you to everyone on campus who made the beautiful event possible.
NOTE FROM PRESIDENT ELAM
I’m excited to announce that Occidental, together with DePauw, Oberlin, Macalester, Pomona and Skidmore, have launched the Liberal Arts College Racial Equity Leadership Alliance (LACRELA), a national coalition to address racial inequities on our campuses.
NOTE FROM THE PRESIDENT
Four weeks into the fall semester, I could not be more impressed with 鶹Ƶstaff, faculty and students. My interactions with everyone affirm everything I heard about 鶹Ƶbefore I arrived and leave me very optimistic for our future.
NOTE FROM HUMAN RESOURCES
As classes have begun and we embark on a new academic year, with all the excitement that it brings, it is clear that worldwide developments have created the need for resourcefulness, adaptability and understanding.
