Anthony LaFetra, University of La Verne trustee, and president and chief executive of the Rain Bird Corporation, died on Jan. 29 from an undiagnosed cancer. He was 80.
The College of Education and Organizational Leadership opened this fall under a new moniker – the La Fetra College of Education – following the largest monetary gift in University of La Verne history.
It was a night dedicated to honoring the past and embracing the future. Jan. 28 marked not only the 11th annual President’s Dinner Gala but also the unveiling of the University of La Verne’s $42 million “Building on Excellence” campaign.
