LYNCHBURG, Va. (AP) — The president of Virginia University of Lynchburg has resigned.
President Ralph Reavis announced his departure this week, about eight months ahead of schedule. The 75-year-old educator has been president at VUL for 15 years.
Provost and executive vice president Kathy Franklin was named interim president.
Reached Wednesday by the News & Advance (http://bit.ly/1NVITdZ ), Reavis simply said it was time to step down and declined to comment further.
A search committee has been formed to find his successor.
Virginia University of Lynchburg is a small private historically black institution.
