PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE A Profound Legacy By Pamela A. Eibeck, President he University of the Pacific family recently lost a dear member, the renowned musician and humanitarian Dave Brubeck ’42. Dave was a legend: THe changed our ideas about music forever, and he embodied creativity and innovation. He also lived his values. He was deeply dedicated to creativity and education and to the environment and human rights. Dave’s life and work had repercussions across the globe, and of course he also meant the world to us right here at Pacific. He made no secret of his love for his alma mater; he and his beloved wife, Iola, bestowed on us the greatest gift they could give—the honor of housing the Brubeck archives and the Brubeck Institute. Dave’s life and legacy are about giving—to the world of music, to his fans, to his family and to Pacific.
