The Nexus has created a graphic representation of the graduating classes from the College of Letters & Science and the College of Creative Studies Supriya Yelimeli News Editor As UC Santa Barbara’s graduating class prepares to walk the line next week, nearly 5,000 students are look- ing to the future for life after college. The class of 2016 has borne witness to significant cultural and academic change at UCSB in the past four years. Current seniors entered college as Barack Obama began his second term as president and were a year later confronted with both the Deltopia riots and the May 23, 2014, shooting as most phased into their twenties. The self-governance movement in I.V. took hold later that year, and students and faculty came together to improve life in the small college town. Now, another presidential election has taken young people by the reins, and graduating students are facing the future with con- trasting college experiences. The four-year graduation rate for UCSB students typically fluctuates around 68 percent, according to the UCSB Campus Profile, and 4,687 students are sched- uled to attend commencement ceremonies on June 11 and 12, according to Cathy Pollock, assistant dean of the College of Letters and Science. While the majority of graduating students are seniors, this number includes students from other class levels who will be graduating early, as well as students who graduated prior to Spring Quarter.

    DAILY NEXUS THURSDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2019 www.dailynexus.com UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SANTA BARBARA U.S. Women’s Soccer Captains Speak on Gender Equality, World Cup Success at Arlington Theater Barbara Soccer Club and American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO). “It’s weird seeing her in person and not on my phone screen,” Reese Termond, a 17-year-old who attended the soccer clinic, said after seeing Rapinoe. “She’s actually human and not a robot that dribbles through people and scores goals.” Both on and off the field, Rapinoe was relaxed, personably cracking jokes as she gave advice and answered questions. Morgan was unable to assist at the clinic due to a knee injury but came later to the event to speak to the younger players, urging them to believe in themselves and their abilities. “Did I think that this would actually happen? I’m not sure. But I had the dream when I was 7, my mom believed in me, my family believed in me and that encouragement helped me become who I am today,” Morgan said after being asked by a player at the clinic if she always believed she would play professional soccer. Morgan and Rapinoe’s personal and professional growth was also discussed in-depth at their evening talk. Moderator Catherine Remak, from the radio station K-LITE, brought up their experiences playing high school and college soccer; Rapinoe played for the University of Portland and Morgan for UC Berkeley. Rapinoe joked about her experiences getting “walloped” as a high school player who was “never on a winning team.” But she admitted that the experience of losing led to growth, stating how “even at this level, we’ve had some really tough losses in our career and you can’t let that define you.” Both captains discussed some of the difficult defeats they’ve endured, referencing their loss to Japan at the 2011 FIFA World Cup on a penalty shootout in overtime as an example.

Our research portfolio continues to diversify with an ever growing set of funders representing a very large array of government agencies, private industry, non-profit foundations and individuals. Discoveries by MSI researchers are revealing wondrous new aspects of ocean systems from new insights into the ecology of coral reefs to the effects of ocean acidification. This new knowledge continues to improve our basic understanding of the seas and the wide range of services that they provide to society. I am proud of the contribution that our scientist make to society’s knowledge as these discoveries continually teach us how to be better stewards of the ocean realm. While ocean discovery is key to our mission, MSI researchers also act on this knowledge to solve pressing issues associated with the constructive use of ocean resources.

It is an inspiring facility and location, and it has taken the hard work of many individuals to make it a reality. At UCSB in the 1980’s and 1990’s, Marine Science facilities could be described as dispersed, inadequate, and not up to the standards of a world class research institution. Long-standing efforts to get a facility approved and built had met with no success. However, things began to change with the identification of a State of California program that provided a financing mechanism for research facilities dedicated to long-term scientific activities.
