A Message to the Campus Community

May 1, 2024 - 1:47 p.m.

Dear Students and Colleagues,

As we all come to terms with the recent events on campus, it is important to recognize the emotional impact they have taken on us, individually and collectively. We want to acknowledge that this has been an extremely challenging week for Cal Poly Humboldt. We are hurting within our campus community and beyond, and we have much work in front of us to reset, rebuild, and heal. This will take time. We will do this together.

The Acropolis Caryatids are statues supporting a roof. Some believe that these pillars were designed to honor the maidens of Athens. Vitruvius, a Roman architecture critic, believed that these Caryatids served as a political statement. This presentation will examines other caryatids, which may also have been political statements.
