At DISCOVERY DOMINGUEZ DAY today, The City of Carson surprised & humbled me by deciding to name a street after me. What an honor and blessing for a President as I prepare to step down & retire in 2 1/2 months in Dec 2025.

Great day to showcase all of the great educ experiences at CSUDH. The campus demonstrated why future students should come and get some of what we have to offer. More academic accreditation than ever, 82 majors, new infrastructure, 65% women, & 91% stud of color in the TORO NATION

Thirteen years ago I met Jane Goodall, who we recently lost. She was kind enough to send me a letter the next day thanking me for my hospitality in hosting her for a lecture series at UC IRVINE. She was a blessing to the world and I hope she finds eternal rest & peace.

Day 2 at CBC Activities brought meaningful dialogue and powerful leadership. I attended engaging town halls, including a session with @Sen_Alsobrooks and @RepMaxineWaters. I was also able to have wonderful conversations with Rep Jennifer McClellan and @RepBonnie.

Yesterday, I joined my cabinet team for a town hall on the Huron Consulting Group’s report, which reviewed CSUDH operations and identified opportunities to strengthen our resilience. This work is central to reimagining CSUDH for the future.

As the fall semester begins, I’m reminded of the journey we’ve shared. This semester is special as it marks my final chapter as president. I’m proud of our students, faculty, and staff. Let’s make it a semester of growth, connection, and achievement.

(3/3) on F Douglas: There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices, more shocking and bloody, than are the Gov’t & people of these United States, at this very hour. History continues to repeat itself and we act like we are celebrating independence?


F Douglas Meaning of July 4th (Cont): your boasted liberty, an unholy license; your national greatness, swelling vanity; your sounds of rejoicing are empty and heartless; your denunciations of tyrants, brass fronted impudence; your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery;


Frederick Douglas was prophetic as he reminded us in 1852 What, to the American slave is your 4th of July? A day that reveals, more than all other day, the gross injustice and cruelty to which BIPOC & Immigrants are the constant victim. To us in 2025, your celebration is a sham.


Sharing a brief excerpt from my commencement address. Congratulations Class of 2025!
