Leaders from UC Santa Cruz, San Jose State University, and the
Foothill-De Anza Community College District met earlier this month

the proposed NASA Research Park. Joining UCSC Chancellor M.R.C.
Greenwood at a September 5 news conference announcing the partnership
were Robert Caret (also seated), president of SJSU; Leo Chavez
