UC San Diego Chancellor Pradeep Khosla has been given a $500,000 pay raise by the University of California Board of Regents, which said it made the move last week to prevent him from accepting the presidency of an unnamed, private out-of-state school.
Leib would not identify who donated the $13 million but said the money was raised quickly out of concern that UCSD would lose Khosla, who oversaw a record $3.05-billion campus fund-raising campaign that ended last year.
Irwin Jacobs, co-founder of chipmaker Qualcomm, told the San Diego Union-Tribune he was one of the donors but declined to say how much money he gave. But he was quick to praise the 66-year-old Khosla, who became the school’s chancellor in 2012. “He’s been watching over tremendous growth that’s allowed more Californians to be admitted, he’s worked with the faculty, staff and donors on all accounts, and he’s dealing well with the housing issue.”UCSD had just over 28,000 students when he arrived. Today, it has roughly 43,000. Khosla said last year enrollment could hit 50,000 in about a decade.Litigation blocking student housing projects, a potential delay in state funding and escalating construction costs are among the challenges.
