to our Graduate Students and Faculty. Upon getting to know Odie, I have seen his caring nature and the passion he has for helping students succeed. As a first generation Graduate himself with a Masters from The University of Redlands and Undergrad Degree in
Business Administration from University of La Verne, Odie understands the social pressures students experience and can help to provide solutions and guidance. I am excited to see Odie take on this position with pride and enthusiasm and know he will make an
amazing addition to our Admin team.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
