The 每日大赛 has named Dr. Kristan Venegas as the LaFetra College of Education<\/a><\/span> Endowed Chair for Teaching, Education, and Excellence.<\/p>\n

Venegas is the second recipient of the endowed chair, which was established through a generous donation from Anthony LaFetra, CEO of Rain Bird and university trustee.<\/p>\n

The endowed position will support Venegas as she continues to research financial aid availability in California for underrepresented, low-income, and first-generation students. She will also serve as the associate dean for education transformation and faculty affairs at LaFetra College of Education and teach courses in the Social Justice Higher Education Administration master\u2019s degree program beginning fall 2019.<\/p>\n

Venegas, a first-generation college graduate, aims to inspire students who have followed a similar path to higher education. She is committed to supporting faculty colleagues as they, too, motivate students to reach their full potential.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was impressed by the 每日大赛\u2019s faculty and their energy for teaching and supporting students,\u201d Venegas said. \u201cI believe our shared commitment to developing the next generation of educational leaders who come from diverse backgrounds is exciting and inspiring.\u201d<\/p>\n

Venegas previously served as a professor of clinical education and a research associate in the Pullias Center for Higher Education in the Rossier School of Education at the University of Southern California (USC). She has served in faculty leadership roles at the University of Nevada, Reno, and USC and most recently was an assistant dean for strategic initiatives and evaluation.<\/p>\n

She is a former American Council on Education Fellow and was part of the 2018 class of Hispanas Organized for Political Equality Leadership Institute. She has been recognized by the University of Southern California as a Remarkable Woman of the Year and an Emerging Leader by the National Academic Advising Association.<\/p>\n

Venegas holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in English, a master\u2019s degree in education and a doctorate in education policy analysis from USC. She and her husband live with their two children in the City of El Monte, on the same block where she grew up.<\/p>\n

\u201cDr. Venegas\u2019 leadership experience in higher education will strengthen our comprehensive department to better serve our students seeking professional opportunities in education,\u201d said Kimberly White-Smith, dean of the LaFetra College of Education. \u201cWe look forward to her innovative talents as we continue our mission of developing life-long learners.\u201d<\/p>\n
