The University launched its third regional campaign in California on September 21. More than 100 Los Angeles-area alumni, parents, and friends gathered at The Langham Huntington in Pasadena for an evening that recognized the area’s support for The Meliora Challenge, inspired University pride, and looked to the future. University Trustee Evans Y. Lam ’83, ’84S (MBA), a member of the Los Angeles Regional Cabinet, announced the region’s goal to raise more than $33 million, of which they had already raised 91 percent.
