CAL STATE UNIVERSITY, FULLERTON

IN THE NEWS: Retired last year. In June, named the next president and CEO of the Association of Governing Boards of Universities and Colleges.
QUOTABLE: “Higher education leaders have a lot on their plates right now. There is very little room for error, and the consequences are enormous. Boards can be pillars of strength for their institutions when they are 100% engaged and 100% committed to their role as fiduciaries and partners.”
