Michigan State University President Samuel Stanley announced his resignation on Thursday, saying he has "lost confidence" in the East Lansing school's board of trustees.
In a video posted Thursday on YouTube, Stanley said that he gave his contractually required 90-day notice of resignation to MSU's Board of Trustees. His last day will be Jan. 11.
"I know very well from the outpouring of support that I have had from students, staff, faculty, shared governance, alumni donors, affinity groups and others, that many of you will be profoundly disappointed in my decision," Stanley said.
