As Dean of the College, I stand in full support of today’s statements by UCR and the University of California regarding the Supreme Court’s affirmative action decision. Color and race matter in outcomes and we will continue to reduce the barriers to provide a world-class education for all. CHASS will continue to be a center of excellence for the study of racialized experiences, identities, and disparities in the United States and across the world.
