San Diego Community College District Chancellor Carlos Cortez has resigned in order to care for his parents, who are experiencing health issues, the district announced Monday evening.
Cortez had announced on March 30 that he was taking extended emergency family leave to spend more time with his parents, who live in Florida.
Greg Smith, the district's vice chancellor of people, culture and technology services, will serve as acting chancellor while the district conducts a national search for a permanent chancellor.
