Denver Post: Colorado higher-ed director Skaggs resigns
The official, often at odds with state college presidents, cites a dispute with Gov. Bill Ritter.
Citing a dispute with Gov. Bill Ritter about “a matter which . . . we could not agree,” higher-education chief David Skaggs announced his resignation Friday afternoon.
Neither the governor’s office nor the Department of Higher Education would elaborate on the disagreement. Skaggs had been at the helm of the department for 2 1/2 years.
