Erskine President and Board Chair Leaving
Both the president and the Board of Trustees Chairman are turning over at Erskine College (SC), suddenly leaving the Christian institution without top leadership just months after it was roiled by proposals to split off its seminary. Board Chairman Ron Vigus has resigned from the role effective immediately, a college spokesman confirmed Tuesday. The resignation came as President Paul Kooistra plans to accelerate a retirement that was only recently announced.
