Occupation: Educator Nationality: United States
Executive summary: President, University of Virginia "The campaign to remove Sullivan began around October, the sources said. The [Helen] Dragas group coalesced around a consensus that Sullivan was moving too slowly. Besides broad philosophical differences, they had at least one specific quibble: They felt Sullivan lacked the mettle to trim or shut down programs that couldn’t sustain themselves financially, such as obscure academic departments in classics and German."[1]
Sullivan's sudden departure is controversial; it is likely to result in an exodus of faculty.
