    SPRING · SUMMER· FALL COMMENCEMENT 2020 California Baptist University riverside, california SPRING · SUMMER· FALL COMMENCEMENT 2020 SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12 2:00PM COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER Dr. Ronald L. Ellis Ronald L. Ellis, Ph.D. became the fifth president of California Baptist University on November 1, 1994. Since then, the institution has experienced sweeping changes in almost every facet of university life—from expanding academic programs to a successful athletics program. Enrollment at CBU has grown by 1,401 percent during the Ellis presidency, from 808 in the fall of 1994 to 11,317 in the fall of 2020. During his tenure, the university’s operating budget has increased from $11.3 million to $355.4 million in FY21. After winning 22 NAIA national championships in 12 years, CBU gained full membership in NCAA Division II in 2013. CBU won the 2012 Pacific West Conference Commissioner’s Cup in its inaugural year competing in the PacWest. CBU won it again in 2014, the same year Dr. Ellis became the first leader of a PacWest member institution to serve on the NCAA Division II Presidents Council. CBU won the PacWest Commissioner’s Cup again in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018. The Lancers also won the NCAA Division II Learfield Directors in 2018. In the 2018-19 season, CBU began a four-year transition to Division I status as a member of the Western Athletic Conference. Since then, the Lancers have won three WAC championships, logged 11 top-three conference finishes and qualified seven teams for postseason tournaments involving Division I programs. New construction, renovation of existing facilities and property acquisitions have dramatically transformed CBU’s beautiful Southern California campus.

On April 1, 1976, 400 prisoners were transported to DCI for the New Millennium from Angola and the era of satellite state prison camps was launched. Today, DCI is just one of ten such facilities and is rated to house 1,695 inmates with an operational capacity of 1,586 maximum, medium, and minimum custody inmates. In 1993, Dixon surpassed rigorous accreditation standards of the nationally recognized American Correctional Association with a 98% approval rating. Dixon has been routinely reevaluated by ACA inspectors. In 2008, ACA awarded DCI a 99.1% rating. Straight Low Magazine, the official inmate publication for DCI, was originally named DCI News & Views. Mrs. Rose Travis, then-Director of Inmate Programs at DCI, after becoming acclimated with daily prison jargon, renamed the publication to better reflect the aim of the DCI administration and inmate population.
