OFFICE OF THE CHANCELLOR
April 2, 1996
ALL AT UCSD
It is with a great sense of regret that I announce the retirement of Dr. Edward A. Frieman, Director of Scripps Institution of Oceanography and Vice Chancellor, Marine Sciences. Since joining the faculty at Scripps in 1986, Dr. Frieman has been a tremendous force providing vitality and direction to new research initiatives at Scripps.
His contributions over the past decade to the institution and to the University have been critical in building upon Scripps's world-renowned stature. The National Research Council recently ranked Scripps first in faculty quality among oceanography programs nationwide.
Following his retirement late this summer, Dr. Frieman plans to remain on the faculty, working with his colleagues in support of research and education programs.
Please join me in extending heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Edward Frieman for his years of service to the University and to Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
Marjorie C. Caserio
Interim Chancellor
