Ohlone College has chosen Dr. Teresa Massimo of the Communication Studies department as faculty of the month for Dec. 2024. Her courses include public speaking and intercultural communication. She is also director of the Communication Lab. Massimo has worked at the college for 24 years.
In December 2024, Ohlone College received a $200,000 donation from The Frank DiMino Foundation, which they will use for the Lytton Center for History and the Public Good. The DiMino Foundation first donated to the school in 2018, with a gift of 9.8 Million.
Lytton center programs include funding library resources, hosting a speaker series and providing grants for student public arts projects. These projects include field trips, cultural activities and performances, and booking speaking engagements with artists and researchers. Grants also go toward student artwork that beautifies the campus—for example the owl mosaic sculpture outside the art building.
