Dear Class of 2020, We are excited to welcome you back to Colorado Springs to mark your Colorado College graduation. The past 14 months have been more challenging than any of us could have imagined. We are so happy we can be together for this special day. Over a year ago, you left campus months earlier than planned as the Coronavirus pandemic took hold, and you began a new path as alumni in the face of uncertainty. No degree could have prepared you for this past year; there was no precedent nor prerequisite for the pandemic. And yet, you have made it through the past year as a member of this community. Your time as a CC student fostered lasting relationships with faculty, mentors, and peers who have become lifelong friends. You spent four years immersed in a fast-paced living and learning community and brought meaning to your studies through dynamic curricular engagements. You spent your mornings engaged in roundtable discussions and on field trips across the Southwest, and studied in the company of friends late into the night. The lessons you learned reach far deeper than class material, and will continue to serve you as you explore this new chapter. After this long year apart, we are grateful to come together to recognize your strength, resiliency, and achievements as you mark this important milestone. You have joined thousands of other graduates in the ranks of alumni, and the CC community is here for you. Today, we welcome you back to Colorado Springs. Colorado College will always be your home; we look forward to welcoming you back time and time again. Congratulations on your graduation! Sincerely,
SUSAN S. BURGHART ’77

ania E. Davis is a leading national voice on restorative justice. She is a longtime social justice activist, civil rights trial attorney, writer, restorative justice practitioner, and educator with a Ph.D. in indigenous knowledge. Coming of age in Birmingham, Alabama, during the social ferment of the civil rights era, the murder of two close childhood friends in the 1963 Sunday School bombing crystallized within Davis a passionate commitment to social transformation. For the next decades, she was active in the civil rights, Black liberation, women’s, prisoners’, peace, antiracial violence, economic justice, and anti-apartheid movements. Studying with African Indigenous healers catalyzed Davis’s search for a healing justice, ultimately leading her to serve as founding director of Restorative Justice of Oakland Youth and co-founding board member of the National Association of Community and Restorative Justice. Her numerous honors include the Ubuntu Award for Service to Humanity, the Dennis Maloney Award for Excellence in Youth Restorative Justice, the Black Feminist Shapeshifters and Waymakers’ Award, the Tikkun (Repair the World) Award, the Ella Jo Baker Human Rights Award, and the Ebony POWER 100 Award. The Los Angeles Times named her a New Civil Rights Leader of the 21st Century.

Davis, who resides in Oakland, California, writes and speaks internationally on restorative justice, racial justice, truth processes, and indigeneity. Among her publications is “The Little Book of Race and Restorative Justice: Black Lives, Justice, and U.S. Social Transformation.”

E I KO OTAK E

orn and raised in Japan and a resident of New York since 1976, Eiko Otake is a movement-based, interdisciplinary artist. She worked for more than 40 years as Eiko & Koma but since 2014 has been performing her own solo project “A Body in Places.” In 2017, she launched the multi-year “Duet Project,” an open-ended series of cross-disciplinary, cross-cultural, and cross-generational experiments with a diverse range of artists, both living and dead.
After studying with Kazuo Ohno and Tatsumi Hijikata in Japan and Manja Chmiel in Germany, Eiko & Koma relocated to America and went on to create 46 interdisciplinary performance works, two career exhibitions, and numerous media works. Always performing their own choreography, Eiko & Koma usually designed and handcrafted all aspects of their works including sets, costumes, and sound. They presented their works in theatres, universities, museums, galleries, outdoor sites, and festivals worldwide, including many appearances at the American Dance Festival and the Walker Art Center and five seasons at Brooklyn Academy of Music’s Next Wave Festival. Durational performance works they call living installations were commissioned by the Whitney Museum, the Walker Art Center, and the Museum of Modern Art. The Walker Art Center published a comprehensive monograph of their works, “Eiko & Koma: Time is Not Even, Space is Not Empty,” as a part of their retrospective project (2009 to 2012), which included new performance works, restaging of old works, media works, installations, museum exhibitions, film showings, panels, and lectures. –7–
Eiko & Koma were honored with the first United States Artists Fellowship (2006) and Doris Duke Artist Awards (2012). They are the first collaborative pair to share a MacArthur Fellowship (1996) and the first Asian choreographers to receive the Samuel H. Scripps American Dance Festival Award (2004) and the Dance Magazine Award (2006). Otake’s solo project began with a 12hour performance at the Philadelphia Amtrak station. Since then, Otake has performed variations of the project at nearly 50 sites. She also collaborates with photographer and historian William Johnston, visiting post-nuclear-meltdown Fukushima several times to create photo exhibitions and video installations, which have been presented in many cities. In 2016, she was the subject of the annual Danspace Platform titled “A Body in Places,” a month-long curated program that included daily solos, weekly installations, a film series, a book club, discussions, group solo shows, “talking duets” and a 24-hour photo exhibition of “A Body in Fukushima.” These activities brought her a special Bessie citation, an Art Matters grant and the Anonymous Was a Woman Award. Eiko teaches regularly at Wesleyan University, New York University, and Colorado College. Eiko is an artist-in-residence at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York and at Brooklyn Botanical Garden.

enise Young recently closed a brilliant two-decade career with Apple and is currently serving as executive-in-residence at Cornell University’s new Cornell Tech graduate school campus in Manhattan. At Cornell Tech, Young has been a visiting scholar and a key cultural influencer on the imperative of true diversity, inclusion responsibility, and humanity in technology, drawing on her passion to positively impact the next generation of business and tech leaders and entrepreneurs. For the last three years Young has also been visiting the Colorado College campus to speak to students, faculty, and staff about our role in thought leadership in these same areas.
Young is a Colorado native, raised in Colorado Springs, and a graduate of one of our nation’s historically Black colleges and universities, Grambling State University in Louisiana. Young’s family has a solid history in Colorado Springs. Her father, Leon Young, served the city for almost three decades as city councilman, vice mayor, and the city’s first African American mayor. Theirs is a family legacy of representing the voices that speak for access, equality, representation, and humanity in all things. While at Apple, Young held a variety of executive roles, including building much of the company’s retail store initiative, leading the Apple stores to over 400 stores globally before being promoted to the chief human resources role, and reporting to Apple CEO Tim Cook. She also served as Apple’s first vice president of inclusion and diversity, pioneering the company’s efforts to become as inclusive as possible. Young has been named a “Most
–8–
Powerful Woman” by Ebony magazine and Black Enterprise, has been named one of “100 Most Influential in Silicon Valley” by Business Insider, and has been featured in Fortune’s “Most Powerful Women” issue. Young sits on the advisory board of the Howard and Sheri Schultz Family Foundation and is on the executive committee of the trustee board of San Francisco Jazz, the largest performing arts and cultural center in the country dedicated to the music and culture of jazz. Truly living at the intersection of technology, humanity, and art, Young is an accomplished soprano who has graced local and international recital halls — including Carnegie and SFJazz, and locally at the Pikes Peak Center, Shove Memorial Chapel, and Packard Hall. Her first album, “Denise Young, Soprano” was released in 2018, and she has since started a production company, Blue Organza Productions, whose mission is to amplify the artistic endeavors of young women, people of color, and those whose art serves the heart of humanity.
