President Kerr At the beginning of his second year as President of the University of California Clark Kerr officially welcomed the student body at the 60th annual welcome University meeting. During his second year as President of UC, Clark Kerr has taken an active interest in the University and in the students themselves. Although he holds a professorship in Industrial Relations and is a research associate in the Institute of Industrial Relations as well as being the President of all seven campuses of the University of California, President Kerr always finds time to participate in University, community, and national affairs. He holds an A.B. from Swarthmore College and a Ph.D. in economics from UC, has served as a consultant to the United States Department of State and the of Labor and is on the Board of Directors of the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences of the Ford Foundation. Throughout the year, from his welcoming address in September to his speech at Commencement in June, President Kerr has been a vital and important force in the life of the University and has made a meaningful and valuable impression on its students. It is through dynamic personalities such as his that the University, while expanding in size, can still maintain a personal atmosphere and remain an integral unit meeting the needs of its many students.
