AUSTIN, Texas — The former Baylor University president Ken Starr is resigning his post as a law school professor, severing ties with the faith-based campus still reeling from a sexual assault scandal.
Starr lost his job as Baylor’s president and chancellor in May in a scandal involving the university’s football team that also led to the ouster of Coach Art Briles.
Baylor said in a statement Friday that Starr “will be leaving his faculty status and tenure” in a separation that was mutually agreed upon. It was his last Baylor post.
Starr is best known for zealously pursuing charges against former President Bill Clinton in a White House sex scandal.
