Talking with Jason Tavarez, Director of Institutional Resilience at Westmont College in Santa Barbara, CA - Part 1
In this episode of Educate Everyone, we talk with Jason Tavarez. He's the Director of Institutional Resilience at Westmont College in Santa Barbara, CA, where he oversees risk management and emergency preparedness. He also serves as Secretary of the Board for Middle Tree, supporting educational equity and access through community-focused programs. Jason and Joe Atman go back a long way - all the way back to college - and in this episode, they raucously look back at their time in the often overlooked college town of Claremont, CA. It's a fun look back with some important insights into how two college buddies got started on a journey to change education as we know it today.
