Paul Broadie started his job as Santa Fe College president just six weeks before COVID-19 closed down the campus, the start of a year that has seen challenges but also remarkable highlights. It was really a good experience for me as president to watch a whole college mobilize and do the right thing. Broadie said. We have a very caring institution. That has accelerated my listening and learning.
Broadie took over as college president in February 2020 after being unanimously elected by the district board of trustees. He replaced Jackson Sasser, who saw the college s reputation peak in 2015 with the Aspen Prize for national excellence.

Virginia legislators appear poised to abolish the death penalty in the coming days, a step that would make it the first Southern state to end the practice of capital punishment.
A bill to end capital punishment passed the state Senate on Wednesday by a 21-17 margin. The state House of Delegates is set to take up companion legislation as early as Friday. Gov. Ralph Northam (D) supports an end to the death penalty. The practice is fundamentally inequitable. It is inhumane. It is ineffective.

William & Mary’s annual Martin Luther King Jr. commemoration will focus on not only the renowned civil rights leader, but present-day movements happening in the local area and across the country.
“Honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: The Power of Protest, Marches and College Students,” sponsored by William & Mary’s Center for Student Diversity, will take place virtually through Zoom at 7 p.m. on Feb. 3.
The event will feature a panel of student, faculty and alumni speakers moderated by CSD Associate Director Shené V. Owens and Alton Coston III 23.
“While planning this program, I wanted to tap into how Dr. King s movement was led by college students,” said Owens. “William & Mary students are adding their voices to present days movements, and that led me to reflect back on the efforts of SNCC (Student Non-violent Coordinating Committee) and the Freedom Riders.”
