"We are deeply saddened by the passing of former Board of Regents Chancellor Carlos Carballada, who served the Board with distinction for two decades. A devoted public servant and accomplished business leader, Chancellor Carballada made a lasting impact on the people of New York State—especially in Rochester, the city he proudly called home.
