This just in from Charlottesville:
Teresa Sullivan, president of the University of Virginia, was reinstated after a unanimous vote of the Board of Visitors, including that of Rector Helen Dragas.
The Daily Progress reported that the board also voted unanimously to support Dragas.
This is a happy ending to an unusual and unnecessary chapter in the leading school’s history. Now, the two women and their board will face any number of far-reaching issues brought up by the two-week-long conflict.
“I want to partner with you,” said Sullivan, whose surprise forced resignation brought one of the largest protests in the school’s history.
Jim Bacon owes me $5 (we did have a bet didn’t we, I forget).
