Meet Cynthia Teniente-Matson, San Jose State University’s first Latina president.
"No matter where in the world you might live, the Silicon Valley is still the golden ring," she said.
She said another priority is meeting with student-athletes off the field to reestablish trust between them and the administration. In 2021, the U.S. Department of Justice found that San Jose State failed for more than a decade to adequately respond to reports of sexual harassment and sexual assault of female athletes by a former athletic trainer. The previous university president resigned soon after those findings and after a $1.6 million settlement for affected students.
"I applaud the brave women and people who came forward with their concerns," Teniente-Matson said."The university has responded to that and we need to keep moving forward. My commitment to that remains unwavering." She knows the road ahead will be challenging but said she will walk it with hope and with an open-door policy that includes allowing every student to message her directly on social media."I’m accepting all invitations to be out and about," she said.
