Learned During Campus Town Hall

At several events throughout the day, highlighted by a campus town hall meeting, Dynes shared lessons learned in what he called "an intense year" and said emphatically, "The University of California has an impact on virtually every aspect of life here in California. . As I told the governor, 'If the University of California becomes just another university, the state of California will become just another state.' And that actually rang through to him."

massage and Pilates sessions.
