Two years after the fatal crash that took the lives of four Pepperdine seniors, friends, family and local and state officials came together at the Pacific Coast Highway Ghost Tire Memorial for a press conference that addressed the status of PCH safety.

CODEPINK, an anti-war and social justice nonprofit organization, organized a protest urging Pepperdine to rescind administrator Johnnie Moore’s recent appointment due to his involvement in alleged Gaza war crimes. Activists said it’s the beginning of an ongoing pressure campaign against the University.

In response to senior Pepperdine administrators censoring artwork at the Frederick R. Weisman Museum of Art in early October, faculty from Seaver College’s Fine Arts Division crafted and signed off on the release of an official statement Oct. 16. The Division wrote they stood against the censorship and support the affected artists.
