2 Former Administrators Accused of Embezzlement

A Massachusetts grand jury has returned an indictment against two former administrators at Tufts University, accusing them of separately stealing from student-activity funds and wrongfully obtaining a total of nearly $1-million, according to a report on The Chronicle’s News Blog.

In other news on the administrative front:

  • A failed presidential search at Monroe Community College in New York has led to the resignation of a trustee, according to a report on The Chronicle’s News Blog. The trustee has raised questions about whether the next president would be protected from the “political self-interests” of board members.
  • Ray P. Authement, said to be the longest-sitting president of a public university, has officially stepped down as president of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.
