  • Steven Dorfman Professor of Practice

    2021

    Honored to be Cal Lutheran's first Professor of Practice, hopefully with more to come. Thanks so much to Steve Dorfman for his generous endowment!

  • Executive Director, Steven Dorfman Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship

    2014

    We are creating a new kind of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center at Cal Lutheran. We are housed in a newly renovated facility 10 miles from the main CLU campus, containing modern classrooms and a full service co-work space, Hub101. Our goal is to create a vibrant start-up community hub that synergistically mixes entrepreneurship, education and research. We are proud to carry Steve Dorfman's name and together are building a legacy in the Conejo Valley and Ventura County.
