This undertaking to implement EO 1110 was the driving force behind the systemic change project led by Andrew Lawson, Dean of the College of Science at CSUMB. Because of CSUMB’s existing commitment to innovation to support student success for traditionally-disenfranchised students, the adoption of a new system-wide policy was seen as an opportunity to once again be innovative. At the time, the College of Science represented roughly a third of the campus’s student population.
