SAN DIEGO - Dr. Stephen L. Weber, San Diego State University's president from 1996 through 2011, has died, university President Adela de la Torre said.
"Our community has been incredibly fortunate to continue to enjoy the wisdom and contributions of Weber who, as president emeritus, remained a dedicated advocate for SDSU and the success of our faculty, staff and students. I send my deepest condolences to the Weber family and to all those who knew him."
To garner community support, Weber launched The Campaign for SDSU, which raised $800 million, according to the university. The men's basketball team was ranked in the Associated Press Top 25 for the first time, rising as high as fourth and being ranked sixth in the final poll and recorded its first victory in the NCAA tournament in the Division 1 era, reaching the Sweet 16.
