Thomas B. Day
Thomas B. Day was the president of San Diego State University from 1978-1996. He attended the University of Notre Dame with a Bachelor of Science in Physics in 1952. He went on to earn his Ph.D. in Physics from Cornell University in 1957. He was a research assistant and later a professor in the physics department at the University of Maryland in College Park, specializing in theoretical and experimental physics. In 1970, Day became the Vice Chancellor for Academic Planning and Policy at the College Park campus and was appointed the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs at the Baltimore campus, and in 1978 he was selected as the sixth president of San Diego State University〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=San Diego State University Oral Histories )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=California Council On Science & Technology Fellow Thomas B. Day )〕
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.〔"San Diego State Chief Loses Faculty Vote", ''Los Angeles Times'', August 28, 1992〕 An improvement in the budget situation led to the cuts being rescinded, but Day remained unpopular on campus, and was ultimately asked to resign, ostensibly for health reasons.〔"Embattled President of San Diego State to Step Down in '96", ''Los Angeles Times'', February 2, 1995〕
Day was a member of the National Science Board from 1984 to 1996 and a vice-chairman from 1990 to 1994.〔(list of former chairs and vice-chairs on NSF website )〕 He is a Senior Fellow of the California Council on Science and Technology and a former board member.〔(CCST bio of Day )〕
Day married Anne Kohlbrenner in 1953; they had nine children. Mrs. Day died in 2013. 〔(Anne Day's obituary )〕
