He came to Riverside excited to work for Tomás Rivera, who died unexpectedly,” said Hullar’s son Timothy. “That was a big emotional blow for my dad, but he never regretted moving from Cornell to California. He loved Riverside and its faculty, staff, and students.
Hullar was appointed head of the 4,800-student campus a year after joining UCR in July 1984. He served as chancellor until 1987.
