Weglyn Endowed Chair Social Justice Initiatives

The Weglyn Endowed Chair at Cal Poly Pomona is dedicated to promoting social and racial justice through education, research and community engagement. Named in honor of Michi Nishiura Weglyn, a civil rights activist and author, the Endowed Chair brings vital conversations to campus that challenge assumptions, expand perspectives and inspire change. Through lectures, events and student programming, we continue to build a learning environment where diversity, equity and inclusion are at the heart of discovery.

Your support keeps this important work moving forward. Donations will fund scholarships for students, research grants for faculty and programming that brings diverse voices to campus. With your help, we can expand opportunities for learning, support new ideas that advance justice and ensure that Cal Poly Pomona remains a place where all perspectives are valued. Every gift strengthens our shared commitment to equity, understanding and lasting social impact.
