Marye Anne Fox, a tough-minded chemist who guided UC San Diego through eight often difficult years of growth as the school’s chancellor and who was awarded the National Medal of Science for her insights about sustainable energy, died Sunday at the age of 73.
Fox passed away at her home in Austin, Texas, after a long illness, according to a statement from North Carolina State University, where she served as chancellor before moving to La Jolla.
She was the first female chancellor at NC State and the first woman to hold that position as a permanent appointee at UCSD. The titles meant a great deal to Fox, who spent much of her life promoting the interests of girls and women.

Russell Wilson To Speak At NC State Graduation
NC State University has an underrated history of producing star NFL players. From 1969 NFL MVP Roman Gabriel to more modern stars like Philip Rivers and Torry Holt, the Wolfpack know a thing or two about recruiting talented players.
One of the most successful players in NC State history is Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, who played football and baseball for the Wolfpack from 2008 to 2010. Fresh off winning the 2020 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award, Wilson is returning to his former campus to serve as the commencement speaker for NC State s 2021 graduation ceremonies.
