University Leader — Dr. Clinton D. Gardner Welcome to California Southern University! I am proud to serve as leader of CalSouthern, a member of the AIU System. Our University leadership and staff look forward to supporting you in your higher education pursuits and are committed to providing you with a superior educational experience. CalSouthern is a transformational University with a sharp focus on access, success, and customized one-on-one learner support. Our rich history and philosophy of outcomes-based learning has served our learners well in the 42 years since the University was founded. Our global reach has enriched the lives of countless learners who may not have otherwise had the opportunity to reach their personal and professional goals. I look forward to the years ahead meeting the learners that travel from across the street and across the globe to attend a CalSouthern commencement. Their success is part of the heartbeat of the University. Clinton D. Gardner, PhD
