San Diego State president to retire
August 24, 2010 | 10:41 am


San Diego State University's president announced Tuesday that he would retire at the end of the academic year.
Stephen L. Weber, 67, made the announcement in a video posted on the university's website.
"This will be my last year as your president," he said. "Over the past 14 years, we have accomplished truly amazing things together; and you –- the people of San Diego State -– are the reason the future of this university is brighter than ever."
Weber, the university's seventh president, has been at the helm since 1996. His retirement, planned for three years, will be effective July 5, 2011.
During his tenure, Weber is credited with overseeing a sharp rise in private donations, an increase in graduation rates and expanded PhD programs in fields like evolutionary biology, geophysics and education. In recent years, however, the campus has been forced to reduce enrollment to save money.
