Duke President Will Step Down Next Year

Duke University President Richard Brodhead will step down in June of next year, having ushered in an era of fundraising and expansion after the reputation-battering lacrosse saga a decade ago.  Brodhead, 69, has led the university for 12 years. He will leave the presidency when his current term ends as a $3.25 billion campaign winds down. Already, Duke has brought in $3.1 billion toward the goal.
