UC DAVIS: OFFICE OF THE CHANCELLOR
November 7, 2008
DEANS, DIRECTORS, DEPARTMENT CHAIRS, AND ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICERS
RE: Invitation to Nominate Candidates for the UC Davis Foundation Board of Trustees
On behalf of the UC Davis Foundation nominating committee, I invite you to nominate candidates
for the UC Davis Foundation Board of Trustees.
Trusteeship is truly one of the highest honors UC Davis can bestow upon a volunteer. Trustees
of the UC Davis Foundation play a leadership role in assuring the university’s success in
fundraising and advocacy. They include distinguished alumni, parents, community members and
faculty representatives – who bring vital expertise and community relationships that help
UC Davis achieve its goals.
In addition to serving the university as a whole, trustees serve as liaisons to the schools,
colleges and programs in which they have a strong academic, professional or personal interest.
In this capacity, they also provide a perspective about these areas to other members of the
board and to the community.
For your convenience, a nomination form and details about the selection criteria is attached.
You may also include letter(s) of recommendation, which might provide additional information
about the nominated candidate’s relationship with UC Davis. More information about the
UC Davis Foundation, including a list of current trustees, can be found at
http://www.development.ucdavis.edu/uc_davis_foundation.html.
PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR NOMINATIONS BY FRIDAY, DECEMBER 12, 2008.
Final selection will be made in February by the nominating committee of the UC Davis Foundation
Board of Trustees. The formal election of new trustees will be held in May. Trustees elected
in 2009 will serve a three-year term (beginning July 1, 2009), and may be reelected for a
second term.
You may contact Vivian Carmichael, at (530) 754-4128 or vlcarmichael@ucdavis.edu if you have
questions or need additional information.
Thank you for your valuable assistance.
Larry N. Vanderhoef
Chancellor
