Pikeville College President Cites Health Problems As Reason For Resignation
After seven months on the job, Pikeville College President Michael Looney, who previously served as provost and vice-president for academic affairs at Schreiner University in Texas, has submitted his resignation. Looney says health issues would prevent him from focusing full time on the needs of the college. During a search for the 18th. president, the school's vice-president for finance and business affairs, Jim Evans, will assume the responsibility as the school's chief executive.
