President Andrew K. Benton and Mesa Peak Band
Pepperdine Magazine is the feature magazine for Pepperdine University and its growing community of alumni, students, faculty, staff, and friends.
The class of 2022 gathered for the President’s Reception at Brock House, President Andrew K. Benton and First Lady Debby Benton’s home on campus, during New Student Orientation (NSO) week this August. Students danced the night away to tunes provided by Mesa Peak Band headed by the president himself, a beloved tradition that marked his final NSO at Pepperdine.
