Message From Your Chancellor's Associates Chair
Giving Thanks for Your Support
November is a time for reflection and gratitude. It is also a perfect time to thank you for all that you do for the Triton community year-round. Your support of Chancellor’s Associates Scholarships is not only changing the lives of our students, but the lives of their families as well. Through your generosity, these scholars — who are often the first in their families to attend college — have the opportunity to attend UC San Diego. And thanks to you, they are thriving.
I hope you will join us for our next virtual colloquium on December 8, which will feature one of our Chancellor’s Associates Scholars. Our keynote speaker is Distinguished Professor Ethan Bier, holder of the Tata Chancellor’s Endowed Professorship in Cell and Developmental Biology, who will be presenting “Active Genetics: A Genetic Swiss Army Knife.”
Thank you for being a Chancellor’s Associates champion and broadening access to a UC San Diego education. Happy Thanksgiving!
With Triton pride,
Jerrilyn Malana ’86
