The Chronicle News Blog: Sean O’Keefe Steps Down as Louisiana State U. Chancellor
Sean O’Keefe, chancellor of Louisiana State University’s flagship campus in Baton Rouge, announced today he would resign, effective February 1, after three years on the job.
Mr. O’Keefe, a former administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, was rumored to have clashed with some members of the university system’s Board of Supervisors and with the system’s president, John V. Lombardi, who took office in September. William L. Jenkins, Mr. Lombardi’s predecessor, will serve as interim chancellor until a permanent hire is made.
