UCSD Alumni

As president of the UC San Diego Alumni Assn., I would like to clarify a few points raised in the article “Questions Surround Firing of Award-Winning Dean at UCSD” (Dec. 14) regarding the employment of UCSD Dean Beverly Varga.

The UCSD Alumni Assn. neither supports nor opposes any position, side or party surrounding the matter. Accordingly, it must be pointed out that the organization known as the Third College Alumni Assn. is not affiliated with the UCSD Alumni Assn., and any actions, statements or comments made by its members do not reflect the views of the UCSD Alumni Assn.
