VENTURA : UCSB Center to Hold Graduation Reception
A Ventura County sheriff’s deputy and an opera singer from Ojai are among the students who have earned degrees from UC Santa Barbara’s Ventura Center.
School officials said 29 students will receive their undergraduate degrees Friday, including Deputy Douglas Herder and Rain Perry, who sings with the Santa Barbara Civic Light Opera. Two students will receive their master’s degrees.
A reception for the graduates will be held at 3585 Maple St., Suite 112, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Friday.
The Ventura center is the only off-campus site in the University of California system where students can earn their degrees by attending evening classes on a part-time basis.
The center offers undergraduate degrees in the humanities, and master’s programs in computer science and computer engineering. For more information about the part-time degree programs, call 644-7261.
