2014 True Triton Award Recipient

Steven Schreiner, ’80

Steve Schreiner

Steve Schreiner has played a pivotal role in shaping a strong UC San Diego alumni presence. After five years of service on the Alumni Association Board, Steve became its president in 1995 and served until 1997. He also served as chair of Chancellor’s Associates from 2004 to 2005. In 2003, he was appointed as UC San Diego representative to the UC Committee on Regental Rotation. His invaluable work made him a clear choice to serve as UC San Diego’s third Alumni Regent, during which time he helped develop the Regents’ first written report on alumni contributions to the University. He also successfully lobbied UC’s Office of the President to increase administrative funds for campus development and alumni relations operations.

Steve serves on the UC San Diego Foundation board as nominating committee chair. When not serving UC San Diego as an alumni leader, Steve has also achieved success in his career as an attorney, having been named one of "Southern California's Top‐Rated Lawyers" by American Lawyer Media and the Los Angeles Times.
