Central Coast College Head Who's Worked At Campus For More Than A Half Century To Retire

A man who’s spent more than a half century working for a Central Coast college, eventually becoming its Superintendent/President, has announced his retirement.

Dr. Gil Stork will step down as head of Cuesta College in June of 2018.

Stork has served at Cuesta’s Superintendent/President for the last seven years, a period which included the passage of a $275 million dollar bond measure. He also helped launch a scholarship program which gives local students who meet academic standards a free first year at the campus.

Cuesta College trustees say they will launch a nationwide search to find a successor.

Lance Orozco has been News Director of KCLU since 2001, providing award-winning coverage of some of the biggest news events in the region, including the Thomas and Woolsey brush fires, the deadly Montecito debris flow, the Borderline Bar and Grill attack, and Ronald Reagan's funeral.
