Katrina S. Rogers, Ph.D. Statement from the President: Veterans Day 2024 As some of you know, my late husband was a military veteran. Although he lived through the Vietnam War and subsequent other “actions,” his was a life marked by trauma. He died of his exposure to the chemical Agent Orange decades after his service. I have reflected on his experience in previous Veterans Day events at Fielding. What I’ve been thinking about lately is what it was like to be a military spouse. As a spouse, I was witness to his sorrow and pain, but I also [...]

Statement From the President: Transforming the Climate Conversation on Earth Day

2024-04-22T06:49:52-07:00

President Katrina S. Rogers, Ph.D. On this 54th Anniversary of America's first Earth Day celebration, it is a time to reflect on how we moved from a consensus on the urgent need for environmental protection across the country to woefully underestimating the need for action about climate change. A recent study shows that most Europeans and Americans acknowledge that the climate is warming and that a warming planet will likely hurt humankind. At the same time, there is a distortion of the scientific consensus about the data, which leads to a tendency among the public to underestimate the [...]

Orlando L. Taylor, Ph.D. By: Katrina S. Rogers, Ph.D. The first time I stepped into the offices of Diverse Issues In Higher Education, I was with Dr. Orlando Taylor.

They shared a common spirit in their separate spheres: to advance people of color through mentoring and teaching. In our [...]
