In first Fall Address, President Wood commits to student success, equity
Speaking to a standing-room-only crowd inside the University Union Ballroom on Aug. 24, new Sacramento State President Luke Wood formally introduced himself to the community and outlined his vision for leading the campus he once attended as a student.
His overarching commitment, he said, is to promote student success, particularly among members of groups that have been held back by inequities built into the educational system. But he also stressed the importance of listening, announcing he will spend 100 days meeting with members of the campus and wider Sacramento communities.
“Sac State is my home, the place where I spent the formative years of my life,” Wood said. “Sac State invested in me, and now I have the privilege and honor to invest back in it.”
