Dr. Cameisha Clark, 35, was killed in a workplace shooting on May 2, 2025, at Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology in Inglewood, California. She had recently been promoted to dean of student affairs and was described as a dedicated, compassionate leader whose work focused on supporting students.

Authorities say a former security guard entered the campus building and opened fire, killing Dr. Clark and wounding another employee. The suspect, identified as 40-year-old Jesse Figueroa, was arrested and charged with murder, attempted murder, and possession of a firearm with prior violent convictions. Investigators have classified the incident as workplace violence; the motive remains unclear.

A three-time graduate of Clark Atlanta University, Dr. Clark held degrees in psychology, social work, and higher education leadership. Clark Atlanta University has established a $10,000 scholarship in her name. If anyone knew Dr. Clark or has information about the shooting, please share what you can.
