Indigenous Peoples’ Day: Statement from President Katrina S. Rogers, Ph.D.

2023-10-04T11:32:57-07:00

President Katrina S. Rogers, Ph.D. On this Indigenous Peoples’ Day and every day of the year, Fielding celebrates the notion of kinship within the fabric of Indigenous cultures around the world. Kinship is not only a biological connection that ties us to one another, but it remains a deeply rooted philosophy that contributes to the interconnection of all living things and the lands we inhabit. We all know, either through data or an intuitive sense, that human beings cannot go on forever living on our finite planet as if we had limitless resources. Planetary transformation, economic and social, [...]

Climate Crisis Demands Collective, Individual Leadership and Responsibility

2023-08-29T11:32:48-07:00

Not everyone can lower their carbon footprint, but every person can do one thing within a community context of support. As temperatures continued to rise this summer, with dire predictions that the next year will be hotter than the one that preceded it, communities around the globe have added climate adaptation and building resilient infrastructure to their list of priorities. Grim statistics greet us as we read news stories, ranging from the worldwide crash of the amphibian population to the decline of pollinators, so necessary for global food production. Recently, the increased temperatures in the southern Florida Keys have caused [...]

Statement From the President: Act on this Earth Day for Ecological Justice 

2023-08-22T11:54:44-07:00

Dear Fielding Community, President Katrina S. Rogers, Ph.D. Growing up on a small farm in New England, my family was tied to the rhythms of the seasons and the land. We guided our calendar and lives by when to plant tomatoes, harvest corn and seed the winter rye. The connection to the natural world felt timeless, and the land, ever enduring.    Each summer, Red would show up on our doorstep and stay a few weeks. Red was a giant in my child’s eyes, certainly more than 6 feet tall -- and he had a wagon like Professor [...]

Op-Ed: A New Kind of Education for Urban Leaders in America

2023-03-01T09:53:26-08:00

By: President Katrina S. Rogers, Ph.D., Fielding Graduate University, and President Ronald Mason, Jr., J.D., University of the District of Columbia Urban communities large and small face more new and complex challenges as well as more opportunities than ever before. For example, consider racism, violence, climate change, population mobility enhanced by faster and more economical transportation options and sophisticated technologies that enhance quicker transmission of larger bodies of information, much of which includes disinformation and is leading to greater cultural divisiveness along political, racial and economic lines. Urban community leaders must therefore be attuned to these changing realities and understand how to [...]

A New Year’s Message From President Katrina S. Rogers, Ph.D.

2023-01-06T11:14:49-08:00

Dear Fielding Community, Welcome to 2023! President Katrina S. Rogers, Ph.D. On the occasion of another full turn of the earth around the sun, what may await us as the New Year turns to 2023? Impermanence, as many philosophers remind us, is the only constant. Humans have both an enormous capacity for change and, simultaneously, a resistance to it. We lament all that isn’t anymore, and yet, we adapt quickly in light of new circumstances. Resilience, the watchword of the pandemic, is also our shadow. It allows us to become accustomed to conditions that are not ideal, but [...]
