SUMMER 1991 Schedule of classes

Before Raghu Mathur became IVC's President in 1997, these Schedules of Classes (SOCs) routinely included photos of college employees (faculty, administrators—even classified) and students. After Mathur's rise, however, only anonymous photos of students appeared, and, after awhile, even they disappeared. On the other hand, Mathur's photo always appeared, and when he ascended to the Chancellorship, it continued invariably to appear where the President's photo (and "welcome") used to appear, on page 1.

Mathur's photo invariably appeared. Here, he seems addled. Eventually he learned to pose and to hire professionals to try to make him look smart, hip, in control.

...and the President's welcome was moved to a secondary position in the SOC

Is it just me? Seems like students never change. Always cute and fluffy and full of goofy charm.
