Congratulations Class of 2020!

“The faculty and staff of the Department of Environmental Toxicology congratulate all graduating seniors on your achievements and wish you well as you begin your journey forward from UC Davis! We have 21 spring 2020 graduates this year, and are joined by a few winter 2020 and fall 2019 graduate as well!"

A Word to the Graduates from Professor Robert Rice, Department Chair

Dear Graduates,

    Congratulations! We are glad you have succeeded in finishing. You have studied hard and learned a lot this year. The spring quarter has been especially challenging. For those of us in Davis, though disorienting, the past quarter has been quiet. Those of you elsewhere may have had difficulty focusing on academics. We recognize the experience may have been unpleasant, even excruciating to some. The corona virus epidemic has opened our eyes to the widespread inequity in our society, and the recent uproar in protest against racism, especially that seen in law enforcement, has been stark. This is all happening on top of the existential threat of global climate change and a chaotic administration intent on rolling back the entire federal regulatory apparatus, including for environment protection. As you start your next adventure in life, the challenges are daunting. However, as in the turbulent 1960’s, perhaps we are ready for change. Be ready to contribute to a more just society. Help spread the influence of science in decision making, and be sure to vote.
