Senior Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs

I am delighted to announce that Marsha Chandler will return from sabbatical on August 15, 2005 to continue her service to UC San Diego as Senior Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs. The university is indeed fortunate that Marsha has agreed to continue to provide exceptional leadership in Academic Affairs as we advance an aggressive UCSD agenda toward international preeminence. She is an outstanding member of my leadership team, and I look forward to her counsel, enthusiasm and support.

In August, David Miller will return to his position as Associate Vice Chancellor, Academic Planning and Resources. I am extremely grateful to Dave for his exemplary service to UCSD and for his outstanding contributions as the Acting Senior Vice Chancellor.

UCSD is well positioned as a leader in the University of California system, and I am optimistic and eager to continue our progress with a solid administrative team in place.
