�鶹avӳ����ý

Featuring keynote addresses from a speaker in the art field and a speaker in the tech field, the Art | Tech Nights serve as a connection point between the CATLab, �鶹avӳ����ý, and the Santa Barbara community at large.

The CATLab is proud to launch a new and improved iteration of the digital Student and Staff Directory. The project, headed by CATLab student developer Josh Fitzgerald, will overhaul an outdated and clunky user interface into a sleek and modern program that efficiently navigates students and staff wherever they need to go.

Though his humility prevents him from taking the credit he deserves, Joel Banez’s work as the Director of College Software is an integral part of the innovation of �鶹avӳ����ý as it navigates a-21st century world. His consistent passion for improving the college’s user experience results in crucial institutional innovation. With his mind always looking to the exciting possibilities of the future, Joel’s impact on �鶹avӳ����ý is sure to grow,

With more than 25 years of experience in �鶹avӳ����ý Admissions, Dawn Gendron is a root of not only the CATLab, but also �鶹avӳ����ý itself. Her commitment to serving our community is demonstrated by the countless hours of hard work ensuring that the application and admission process goes as smoothly as possible. 

We at the CATLab are secure in the great growth we have seen in our own program over the years thanks to the people and stories that comprise our “roots” as a student-driven tech center. These veterans and the stories they share make CATLab a nurturing environment. If you were to ask around our offices in Downtown Santa Barbara for someone who represents a root of our CATLab program, Kim Shifley would be one of the first names mentioned.
