This week's Dateline includes a 4-page Fall Convocation 2007 insert and special coverage on page 3. The traditional kick-off to the new school year, the Sept. 26 convocation included remarks on the theme, "Finding — and Being — the Inspiration," before a crowd of 1,500 people in the Mondavi Center. Vanderhoef was joined at the podium by five members of campus who shared stories about those who motivated them and helped shape their lives. "Everyone here has the potential to make a difference and inspire others," said Isao Fujimoto, a senior lecturer emeritus of Asian American Studies who spoke about his Japanese family's internment in the U.S. during World War II.
