We're bringing together the 7C community for a conversation about artificial intelligence in teaching, learning, and research. If you've been thinking about how AI fits into your work — whether you're already experimenting with it, skeptical of the hype, or trying to figure out where to start — this is the event to mark your calendar for.

When: Friday, October 23, 2026 (one day)

Who: Free for all 7C faculty, staff, and students

What: Keynote talks from Dr. Fred Oswald (UC Irvine) and Dr. Scott Emett (Arizona State University), panel discussions, and time to connect with colleagues across disciplines working on these questions.

Registration and faculty submissions open in August. If you're interested in presenting a talk or panel session about your own work with AI, we want to hear from you. Not sure yet? That's fine; just save the date and check back when registration opens!

Thanks to the 7C Academic Deans Committee for making this possible.

I am excited to invite you to join me and other CMC alumni, parents, students, and friends for a visit to Baja California: Among the Great Whales.
In conjunction with National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions, a small band of intrepid Claremont travelers will journey from March 13 to 20, 2027 through the Gulf of California aboard the National Geographic Venture. Our itinerary includes hikes, Zodiac cruises, and snorkeling, along with delightful cuisine and hearty CMC camaraderie. A highlight, of course, will be the search for dolphins, sea lions, and up to six species of whales. Families are welcome: thanks to a special National Geographic Explorers-in-Training family program, children and teens will learn about this wild corner of the world—from tiny hummingbirds to massive humpback whales.
As a biological scientist, I have spent my career teaching students and
studying whales and their prehistoric ancestors. The Gulf of California is the perfect laboratory to continue these studies and share them with you. Seeing whales, sea lions, dolphins, sea birds, and other wildlife in their natural habitat while learning about the beauty of Baja California will be the opportunity of a lifetime.
On behalf of the CMC Alumni Association, I hope you will join me on this remarkable adventure.
Sincerely,
Lars Schmitz, Ph.D.
