Mount Saint Mary College President to Step Down

Anne Carson Daly announced she will step down due to family reasons as president of Mount Saint Mary College (NY) on April 15, the latest turn of events for a school that has been mired in conflict between faculty and leadership for nearly a year.  In the last two months, one member of the school's board of trustees, Andrew Bournos, stepped down amid racial controversy, and a majority of the school's faculty called for board chair Albert J. Gruner to resign. The board passed a resolution in support of Gruner on Saturday.
