The Los Angeles County Commission for Women honored Joyce Feucht-Havair, university senior international officer and dean of the Tseng College, as a recipient of the 28th Annual Women of the Year Award, in the category of education. The ceremony took place March 11 at the Millennium Biltmore in downtown Los Angeles.
The award salutes women for their work to bring about social and economic change and for excellence in the categories of education, health and law/public safety.
"There is a remarkable array of women in influential roles in education in Los Angeles," Feucht-Haviar noted. "I consider myself privileged, indeed, to be in a role and at an institution that allows me to envision a different future and then work with dedicated faculty and administrative colleagues to craft the innovative educational options that can make those envisioned possibilities a reality."
