59, Newport Beach ... Chancellor of UC Irvine ... In past year,
finished an assignment with National Academy of Sciences to present a
report to the White House on climate change ... Congress got really
active on the issue last summer just before Sept. 11, but since then
it’s given it less attention ... Found it a great experience and
learned how hard people in White House are working on issue, though
there is disagreement, just like everywhere else ... Continuing own
research while chancellor ... Is happy about how campus is growing
... Great year of recruiting new faculty from around country ... Won
a lot of battles with other universities in recruiting personnel ...
Daughter Sara just got married, she is a structural engineering grad
student ... Last year’s ranking: 6
