Today we continue that tradition as we apply ourselves to an important goal, strengthening our emphasis on scholarship and culture. We are interested in seeing that each member of the faculty is encouraged to rise among his or her peers in scholarship and to advance thinking within that chosen discipline. As we focus on scholarship, we do not for a moment remove our attention from what we believe is the central task of education: teaching. Though some institutions may agonize over the problem, for Pepperdine the issue is not teaching or research—it is nationally recognized scholarship in support of excellent teaching. We understand that you, as a student, want and need training for a successful career in life. That is a “given.” It is also a given that undertaking the study of the law is an especially rigorous and time-consuming pursuit that deserves your full attention and best effort. At the Pepperdine University School of Law, we also believe it important that your study comes not at the cost of everything and everyone else. Your success will depend on your ability to allow your academic endeavors, personal relationships, and leisure activities to complement each other and exist in harmony. Balancing your emotional and spiritual life with your chosen profession is a task that will follow you all your life. A number of distinguished scholars have observed the weakening of our culture. In 2000, the eminent Jacques Barzun, former professor and provost of Columbia University, released his opus, From Dawn to Decadence. The title seems to speak volumes. It is certainly not impossible to wake up one day and realize that we have become a nation of highly trained (and perhaps even highly paid) barbarians. But at Pepperdine, we believe that higher education has a duty to preserve those things that are timeless and ennoble humanity. Welcome to a University that cares deeply about the past, present, and future: we honor the past, live and serve in the present, and plan for a bright future. We also commend to you the life of the mind, the life of the spirit, and the life of the community Andrew K. Benton President University Information 9 History of the University Pepperdine University is an independent, medium-sized university enrolling approximately 7,600 students in five colleges and schools. Seaver College, the School of Law, the Graduate School of Education and Psychology, the Graziadio School of Business and Management, and the School of Public Policy are located on the University’s 830-acre campus overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Malibu. Courses are taught in Malibu, at six graduate campuses in Southern California, and at international campuses in Germany, England, Italy, Argentina, Switzerland and China. The University was founded in 1937 by Mr. George Pepperdine, a Christian businessman who started the Western Auto Supply Company. For the first 30 years of its life, the institution was a small, mostly undergraduate college. University status was achieved in 1970 as the institution added graduate and professional schools. In 1972, the University opened its new campus at Malibu. Pepperdine University is religiously affiliated with the Churches of Christ, of which Mr. Pepperdine was a lifelong member. Faculty, administrators, and members of the Board of Regents represent many religious backgrounds, and students of all races and faiths are welcomed. It is the purpose of Pepperdine University to pursue the very highest academic standards within a context that celebrates and extends the spiritual and ethical ideals of the Christian faith.

How California Was Won: Race, Citizenship, And The Colonial Roots Of California, 1846 – 1879 Abstract The construction of California as an American state was a colonial project premised upon Indigenous removal, state-supported land dispossession, the perpetuation of unfree labor systems and legal, race- based discrimination alongside successful Anglo-American settlement. This dissertation, entitled “How the West was Won: Race, Citizenship, and the Colonial Roots of California, 1849 - 1879” argues that the incorporation of California and its diverse peoples into the U.S. depended on processes of colonization that produced and justified an adaptable acialr hierarchy that protected white privilege and supported a racially-exclusive conception of citizenship. In the first section, I trace how the California Constitution and federal and state legislation violated the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. This legal system empowered Anglo-American migrants seeking territorial, political, and economic control of the region by allowing for the dispossession of Californio and Indigenous communities and legal discrimination against Californio, Indigenous, Black, and Chinese persons.

  • Dos Vientos Trail System and Provides Connectivity to Westlake Village
    Dos Vientos Open Space Trails elcome to the Dos Vientos Open Space trail system. This large open space area consisting of 1,216 acres and 41 miles of shared use trails (hiking, cycling, equestrain) was originally part of the Rancho Guadalasca Spanish Land Grant of 1836. Dominated by chaparral and coastal sageW scrub habitats, this area provides a home for a wide variety of wildlife as well as rare and endangered plants including Conejo buckwheat, Verity’s dudleya, and Conejo dudleya. Mountain lions are known (although uncommon) inhabitants, as are coyote, mule deer, and bob cat. This area is also considered an important wildlife movement corridor into the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area through Point Mugu State Park to the south. The trail system provides internal and regional trail connections, as well as views of the Pacific Ocean and the Channel Islands. Directly to the south of Dos Vientos Open Space are Rancho Potrero (COSCA), Rancho Sierra Vista/Satwiwa (NPS), and Pt. Mugu State Park, including the Boney Wilderness (CA State Parks) encompassing over 16,000 acres of open space. The Los Robles Trail and Open Space system is located immediately to the east of the Dos Vientos trail system and provides connectivity to Westlake Village. The Dos Vientos trail system is managed by the Conejo Open Space Conservation Agency (COSCA), a joint powers authority created by the City of Thousand Oaks and the Conejo Recreation and Park District in 1977. Open Space Rules Please help us to maintain the beauty of this open space area by observing the following rules: Open space and trails are open from sunrise to sunset except during inclement weather and emergency conditions when trails may be closed.

  • 4.4 Cultural Resources
    Trancas Canyon Park EIR Section 4.4 Cultural Resources 4.4 CULTURAL RESOURCES This section analyzes potential impacts to archaeological and historical resources. The discussion summarizes the findings of a Phase I Archaeological Study performed by Historical, Environmental, Archaeological, Research Team (HEART) (HEART, January 2006). The archaeological study included a records search with the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) and a field survey of the site. The full report is contained in Appendix C. 4.4.1 Archaeological Setting a. Archaeological Overview. At Spanish Contact, the region was occupied by the Native American Indian group known as the Chumash, a diverse population living in settlements along the California coast from Malibu Creek to the southeast, to Estero Bay in the north, including the islands of San Miguel, Santa Rosa, and Santa Cruz, and as far as Tejon Pass, Lake Casitas and the Cuyama River inland (Kroeber 1925, Landberg 1965, Grant 1978, Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History 1986, 1991, Miller 1988 and Gibson 1991). Chumash society became more complex over its last 9,000 years. Regional chronologies were first developed by Wallace (1955) and then Warren (1968). Warren revised Wallace's scheme to include regional variants and traditions enhanced by radiocarbon dates. King (1982) proposed sequences based on changes in ornaments, beads and other artifacts. After A.D. 1000, changes in bead types suggest the development of a highly developed economic system that was observed by early Spanish explorers. Following the 1542 Cabrillo voyage, many small Chumash settlements were abandoned and some of the largest historic towns were founded.
