San Francisco State University executive Leroy Morishita will become interim president at ÂÒÂ×ÉçÇø in Hayward beginning in July, ÂÒÂ×ÉçÇø said Monday.
Morishita has been at San Francisco State since 2002, serving as executive vice president and chief financial officer since 2009.
"I have a great appreciation for the opportunities East Bay has to offer," he said in a statement.
CSU Chancellor Charles Reed tapped Morishita to lead the Hayward campus until a permanent replacement for outgoing President Mohammad Qayoumi can be found.
Qayoumi will become president at San Jose State University in July.
