The Tribune (San Luis Obispo): President of Cuesta College resigns
Saying he is not an effective leader at Cuesta, Pelham takes job directing a college in Abu Dhabi
Cuesta College President David Pelham has resigned, telling board members and college staff in an e-mail Monday evening that he is “not the best person to lead Cuesta College.”
He told Cuesta College Board of Trustees President Pat Mullen of his decision Sunday night.
Pelham will leave at the end of December. His tenure, which began March 3, 2008, will be the shortest of any of the five presidents in the college’s 45-year history.
