The end of an era, but what a legacy! After 30+ years of driving change at USD, Dr. John Glick is retiring at the end of the 2026–27 academic year, with Fall 2026 marking his final semester in the classroom.

From arriving in 1993 as the university’s sole computer science PhD to serving 16 years across department chair roles, Dr. Glick helped build USD's CS program from its infancy into what it is today. (And yes, the legendary "Dress Like Dr. Glick" tradition proves just how much his students love him!)

His next journey: a 13-stop round-the-world trip in the summer of 2027! Thank you, Dr. Glick, for your decades of dedication, mentorship and kindness. Read the full article here: https://www.sandiego.edu/newscenter/157276

Wish him a bon voyage in the comments! 👇

What a difference a week makes! 🏗️

Level 2 of the Shiley STEM Building is officially well underway. Huge shoutout to the Swinerton crew, subcontractors and project management team for putting in the hard work to make it look so seamless. We can't wait for all of our Toreros to see the incredible progress that's taken place since they left for summer break.

Counting down the days! 📅 We move into our newly renovated Guadalupe Hall space on the 24th, and this view from the staircase looking across our entrance bridge toward the Immaculata never gets old.

We are so excited for students, faculty, staff and our partners to enjoy this refreshed area, that includes the updated Linux Lab, the new Deans' suite and more.

By day, ArtBuilds' latest installation, Bloom, disguises itself as just another piece of street infrastructure. It is a plain, seven-foot white box trimmed in black that effortlessly blends into the background, staying quiet until the sun sets. Co-founded by Dr. Gordon Hoople, the ArtBuilds collective specializes in these kinds of surprising, community-driven public experiences.

At twilight, the tower begins to glow with a gentle, ambient rhythm that matches the city's evening hum. Step or jump onto the small platform nearby, and it bursts into vivid, motion-reactive colors. Step off, and it instantly fades back into dormancy.

Ultimately, Bloom challenges passersby to offer a tiny act of public bravery by stepping into the spotlight for a fleeting moment while the world looks on.
