University of Oklahoma President James Gallogly to step down

[TexasTowelie]

After less than a year in office, University of Oklahoma President James L. Gallogly is stepping down.

OU announced Sunday evening that Gallogly, 66, will retire. The announcement came just one day after the university finished with its 2019 commencement ceremonies.

During Gallogly's 10 months as university president, OU has been rocked by an investigation into former President David Boren, numerous on-campus incidents and a budget upheaval.

Among his accomplishments, Gallogly managed to keep tuition rates flat and raise faculty pay for the first time in years.

1. Lots of happy dances and high fives on campus this morning.

It feels like a dark cloud has passed by and blue sky is above us.
