词条 | Thomas B. Day |
释义 |
Facing budget shortfalls in 1992, Day proposed sharp cuts that would have eliminated whole departments and laid off faculty. In August 1992 faculty passed a vote of no confidence in Day and asked the California State University Board of Trustees to replace him.[4] An improvement in the budget situation led to the cuts being rescinded, but Day remained unpopular on campus, and was ultimately asked to resign, ostensibly for health reasons.[5] Day was a member of the National Science Board from 1984 to 1996 and a vice-chairman from 1990 to 1994.[6] He is a Senior Fellow of the California Council on Science and Technology and a former board member.[7] Day married Anne Kohlbrenner in 1953; they had nine children. Mrs. Day died in 2013.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/index.php?pid=38695|title=Nomination of Thomas B.
