Michael J. Hogan, whose leadership style and policies as president of the University of Illinois were criticized by many faculty members, has resigned, the chairman of the university system's Board of Trustees announced on Thursday. Hogan will remain in office until July 1.
Hogan has come under fire for a series of decisions, including a push to give his office a more significant role in enrollment management, that his faculty critics have said infringe on campus-level autonomy.
