Best academic news ever. A glorious day for our alma mater.

I’ll have to text my wife while she’s at graduation to let faculty know.

No joke! Add this to the great FB season we just had, topping it off with a great showing (for now, lol) for the CCG, and all the positive attention we were getting for all of that, this is really is the a case of the 'sleeping giant' waking up and roaring!

Wow. I’ve been on this site since 2003 and I feel like every single year there were people saying we were “this close” to achieving R1 status. So much so that I had had long ago stopped believing them and just accepted that it would never actually happen.

What a pleasant surprise. Congrats to T-Joe and everyone else who worked their tails off to make this happen.

What other universities in LA have this designation? Also, is there a higher classification?
