This decision comes after two failed attempts to expand the facilities at Keck, and many of the professors said they were surprised by the announcement. Keck will continue to be a shared department between Pitzer and Scripps Colleges. All three colleges have been me

The tragic shooting in Pittsburgh yesterday has left a dark cloud over me. While every mass shooting is truly awful, the anti-Semitic intent hit home particularly hard for me. This was an attack on my community and my people, the deadliest attack against Jews in United States history.
