John Semple Galbraith (born November 10, 1916, died 2003) was a British Empire historian concentrating on Canada (The Hudson's Bay Company) and South and East Africa. He served as Chancellor of the University of California, San Diego from 1964 to 1968. He was a native of Glasgow; his family immigrated to the United States in 1926. He received a BA from Miami University in Ohio in 1938, and Ph.D. in 1943 at the University of Iowa, working under his dissertation advisor, C. W. de Kiewiet. He served as an Army historical officer for the Third Air Force until 1946, and assumed a professorship at UCLA in 1948. He was the second chancellor of the relatively new University of California, San Diego. As a condition of accepting the chancellorship in 1964, he secured a promise from UC President Clark Kerr that a library would be built and that UCSD would receive full standing as an autonomous university of the system. The Geisel Library is considered his legacy at UCSD.
