Students:
Lately, I find myself reflecting on the pain many within our IVC community are experiencing in response to national and global events. In conversations with students and colleagues, many have shared how challenging it is to make sense of, understand, and respond to situations that directly and indirectly impact our well‑being and our shared sense of humanity. It is a reminder that when one member of our community hurts, that pain reverberates throughout our entire community. Read More from President Hernandez »
