Cook has been a member of the board since 2013 and takes over for Breyer Capital founder and CEO Jim Breyer, the school said. Cook said in a speech during the meeting that he hopes to spend his time as chairman promoting development of the college and improving the school's economic curriculum.
The appointment comes as Apple grapples with rising
tension between China and Hong Kong over pro-democracy protests in the
semi-autonomous region. Earlier this month, Apple removed HKmap.live, a
mapping app that crowdsources the location of police and protesters in
Hong Kong, from the App Store, saying it violated the store's guidelines
by allowing protesters in Hong Kong to ambush police and threaten
public safety.
US businesses have been criticized for trying to
maintain access to one of the globe's biggest markets by playing along
with China's communist government. China is Apple's third-largest market
for sales, and the company assembles most of its products there.
