In Memoriam

Posted in Announcement, Current Event by Mark Clark
Jan 27 2010

9447A good friend and great colleague, Professor William Green, passed away on Monday, January 25, 2010. He was on Active Duty as a Naval Officer who had been called to duty in January 2009.

Prof. Green came to CSUSB in 1995. We worked closely together for the succeeding 15 years in developing the National Security Studies program. He brought a great deal of energy and enthusiasm, and helped us develop our fields of intelligence and Eurasian security studies. In fact, it is fair to say that without his hard work over the years, we would not be as successful with the CSU ACE grant. He substituted for me at the first Summer Seminar on Intelligence sponsored by the ODNI. His annual student-led, mock competitive National Intelligence Estimate exercises have been a feature of our annual Intelligence Colloquium. He also contributed to developing the curriculum for our annual High School Summer Institute, held at CSU Long Beach in June.

Professor Green will be remembered for being an outstanding teacher and great colleague. He was recognized by the university for his skill in the classroom by winning the Golden Apple Award for Excellence in Teaching for AY 2007-2008. He was innovative in developing new courses, having taught over fifteen different classes and seminars in our undergraduate and graduate programs. He will also be remembered, and missed, by the many alumni who have gone on to careers in the field of national security, many of whom I’ve heard from in the last few days.

Semper Fidelis, and Anchors Away, Bill.
