LMU’s Westchester campus welcomed a cohort of new tenure-line, clinical, and visiting faculty this fall 2024 semester. These new members of the LMU community represent an array of expertise and research areas, including AI for social good, the intersection of queer culture and mestizaje, behavioral corporate finance, and more.
“I am delighted that the newest cohort of faculty is joining our celebrated community of teacher-scholars,” said Executive Vice President and Provost Thomas Poon. “Along with their rich lived experiences, they bring their creativity, research, and excellence in their fields to our campus, ever growing our vibrant intellectual community and fostering a culture of innovation and discovery.”
