欢迎博士. 奥利弗·洛佩兹, professor and advocate for DACA/undocumented 学生

It's an honor to welcome you and affirm that you've earned every opportunity at Chapman — 你真正属于这里. 我自己是非法移民, I understand the struggles and uncertainties of pursuing higher education. That's why I'm deeply committed to collaborating with fellow faculty, 工作人员, 学生, and administrators from across campus to assist 学生 like you in navigating your college journey.

我是数学教授, but as an advocate for all undocumented/DACA 学生, I'm eager to meet you in the classroom or around campus.

记住, 你不是一个人在冒险. For support, questions, or connecting with allies on campus, don't hesitate to email me at olopez@isharevr.com.
