It's been an exciting week as the US News & World Report's 2024 Best College rankings saw Occidental rise two places, landing at No. 35 nationally, a 14-year high. The College also jumped a whopping 44 spots to No. 26 in the publication’s Top Performers on Social Mobility index, which looks to measure how well schools graduate economically disadvantaged students.
Welcome back to a new academic year! To celebrate, join the Office of the President for Convocation 2023 this Monday, August 28, beginning at 9:30 a.m. with a Coffee Break in Rose Hills Patio (in front of the Bookstore). Staff and faculty will cheer on our newest students as they enter Thorne Hall for Convocation (joined by the Taiko ensemble—back by popular demand).

We are less than one month away from welcoming our newest Occidental students to campus and our Orientation team is asking for the support of available staff and faculty.
