Imagine you are ready to change your moment. The trouble is that you can’t seem to get to the one thing that’s most important because you’re busy, tired, don’t know where to start or you doubt if you even have it in you. The problem isn’t you; the problem is the problem. This 45-minute hybrid presentation will lay down the foundation to take you from “here’s what I want to do” to “here’s what I did.” Join Bassam Tarazi's "Getting Things Done in a World That Doesn’t Want You To" talk on Wed., February 26. Advanced registration is recommended.

Just a friendly reminder that catering requests for Pacific Dining should be submitted via their online menu/order form at least 10 days in advance of your meeting or event. It is recommended that you submit orders with as much lead time as possible. The Pacific Dining staff are eager to meet your needs and need ample time to review and confirm catering orders. If you have catering questions, please e-mail catering@pacificu.edu.

Following data from the compensation and benefits survey, the university has identified changes to three tuition remission and assistance benefit programs. These changes are in line with the values expressed by employees in the compensation and benefits survey. On the whole, faculty and staff rated healthcare coverage (including the Nonstop Wellness coverage that offsets deductible costs), the university’s 9% contribution to retirement accounts, and tuition remission for children of employees as high priorities. No changes to those top priorities have been proposed in the developing 2025-2026 budget.
