The Oregon State board of trustees have accepted the resignation of president F. King Alexander, effective April 1, according to Eddie Pells of the Associated Press.
Alexander submitted his letter of resignation Tuesday as a result of his involvement in a sexual misconduct scandal at LSU while he was the school's president, per Kyle Bonagura of ESPN. Alexander was president at LSU from 2013-19 during a time when football coach Les Miles faced allegations of sexually harassing female student employees.
An independent investigation revealed Alexander knew of the allegations when he started his role.
