LETTER FROM THE CHANCELLOR
STRENGTH IN NUMBERS
UC San Diego has nearly 200,000 alumni around the globe who are using their education to improve our society and planet . Just as our alumni are having a positive impact and making our world a better place , we are actively transforming our campus to make it better for our Triton family and community .
It has been only one year since we publicly announced the Campaign for UC San Diego . In this short time , we have made tremendous strides in our physical , intellectual and cultural evolution — from adding more student housing and new facilities that enliven our campus , to creating a connected campus with new pathways and bridges , to the impending arrival of the UC San Diego Blue Line trolley .
I ’ m proud that more than half of our Campaign Cabinet is made up of UC San Diego alumni , dedicated individuals who have volunteered to guide the growth of the university in service of next-generation Tritons . I ’ m encouraged by the more than 10,000 alumni who supported the Campaign in the past year alone . And I am continually impressed by the accomplishments of our alumni around the world , who embody our spirit of innovation , collaboration and service .
“ We have made tremendous strides in our physical , intellectual and cultural evolution .”
Alumni have always been a part of UC San Diego ’ s legacy of excellence — from the first class of undergraduates who received degrees 50 years ago , to the thousands who will turn their tassels in June . As the number of Tritons worldwide continues to grow , now more than ever , alumni are influencing the future of our institution and helping to shape our university ’ s direction and transformation .
As UC San Diego alumni , you are forever part of our Triton family . I hope you feel a sense of pride in the ongoing transformation of your university , and I thank you for being a part of it .
With kind regards ,
Pradeep K . Khosla Chancellor
