Juan Delgado will begin his role as Interim Provost on July 1.
As stated in an email sent by President Tomàs Morales, Delgado will not be considered as a candidate for the permanent position.
A nationwide search for a permanent candidate is underway.
Delgado will serve as Interim Provost until the fulfillment of the permanent position.
Delgado has been a part of the CSUSB faculty since 1988; serving as Assistant to the Provost, Chair of the English Department, and Interim Chair of the Communication Studies Department during his 27 years at CSUSB.
“His [Delgado’s] stellar university leadership experience combined with the strong relationships he enjoys amongst deans, vice presidents and our faculty make him an ideal candidate,” stated President Tomás Morales in an email to faculty.
“I am very appreciative of his willingness to support the university in this capacity over the coming year,” continued Morales.
Delgado also received the Golden Apple Award in 2013 and currently serves as a professor in the English Department.

July 2, 2015 at 10:02 AMProvost Bodman was removed from his position with haste. Why Bodman's replacement was not selected before his departure is unknown. What we do know is President Morales has abused the appointed position and needs to be replaced immediately. Morales has used the position to conceal allegations of a financial and academic fraud at the College of Extended Learning (CEL).
We know that Morales' right hand, VP Student Affairs, Brian Haynes, through a department of justice investigation, thwarted multiple lawful grievances and complaints to conceal the fraud on behalf of Morales. We know that Morales and Haynes staged a suspension and expulsion hearing in retaliation for the filed complaints and then altered the hearing transcripts. Per the chancellor's office, Haynes continued employment is in Morales' hands. Obviously, Morales must protect Haynes and unlike Bodman, Haynes is someone Morales can work with.
The chancellor's May 2015, EO 1097 Level ll review also affirmed that CEL Dean Karmanova testified dishonestly in two hearings to conceal the fraud she is operating. We have a CSUSB dean who blatantly fabricated false malicious testimony twice and who's still gainfully employed and acted on behalf of Morales. The Assoc. VP Dean of Students, Allyson Satterlund, under Haynes, facilitated the suspension and expulsion hearing and joined Sandra Vasquez and Dean Karmanova in defrauding two student hearings.
Let us not forget the pathological role of Sandra Vasquez, our esteemed- Office of Student Conduct and Ethical Development. In place of educating students about their social and ethical responsibilities as members of the university community, Vasquez' conduct in this fraud is epic.
Vasquez is so dishonest and void of any ethics (all documented) that her continued employment on our campus poses an immediate threat to our well being. Vasquez's dramatic unsubstantiated claims and antics show how dangerous placing someone like this in a position of power endangers us all. Vasquez used all the public resources at her disposal to conceal the fraud.
Morales conduct must be fully and transparently investigated. No student, faculty or staffer is safe on the CSUSB campus when we have a president and his subordinates acting so poorly that it now reaches into criminal behavior. Too much water has passed under the proverbial bridge, and Morales and his subordinates can always sue this student for defamation.
This is our public university and not some privately held company where Morales conduct might be acceptable.
