he first months of my presidency have been very rewarding. As many of you

know, I served most recently at an institution that is more than 175 years old. In those terms, USD is a young university. But, as I have grown to know many of you in the USD family, I am struck by the extraordinary and enduring commitment to excellence in teaching, scholarship, spiritual development and community service that permeates this campus. While these values are shared by the trustees, students, faculty and administrators among us, I am especially impressed by how they are manifested in the most important product of our university - our alumni. We, therefore, have chosen "Portraits of Leadership" as the theme of my first President's Report. In this report. we look at the lives of nine graduates of the University of San Diego who embody in their careers and activities the core values of USD and who live by the university's maxim, Emitte Spiritum Tuum (Send Forth thy Spirit). The men and women profiled within these pages have distinguished themselves in diverse fields of endeavor: the judicial system, health care, business, government, science and military medicine. Their workplaces span the nation: from the White House to a San Diego U.S. District Court; from a Naval Hospital in Charleston, S.C., to a human endocrinology lab in Charlottesville, Va. However far afield their professions have taken them, these USD graduates reflect a common dedication to improving the world around them and bettering the future for their fellow citizens. We read of a new breed of entrepreneur, a man who forges partnerships between private corporations, government and the public to reinvigorate blighted inner-city neighborhoods. We experience the dynamic challenges facing a woman who carried her mother's belief that women can achieve anything all the way to the White House, where she is President Bill Clinton's director of the Office for Women's Initiatives and Outreach. We follow the path of a former Jesuit seminarian who today is the deputy mayor of San Diego, the son of Mexican immigrants who strives as a city councilman to lift the spirits and expectations of the many in his district who are disadvantaged. These alumni typify the graduates of the University of San Diego, in whom we can truly take pride. They reflect and project the core values this institution nurtures within its students. I am honored to have been selected to lead such a university and pledge to foster the fine legacy USD has engendered in our community.
