A former US Coast Guard captain has resigned as president of Nichols College after investigations uncovered long-known but apparently suppressed complaints of sexual misconduct involving several students at a previous institution.
Glenn Sulmasy, 바카라사이트 Nichols president since 2021, was put on leave last month from 바카라사이트 1,000-student four-year private business-focused institution in south-central Massachusetts after 바카라사이트 allegations were first reported by?CNN.
Mr Sulmasy previously served as deputy university counsel and head of 바카라사이트 humanities department at 바카라사이트 US Coast Guard Academy, and 바카라사이트 reported details included him allegedly exchanging more than 1,600 personally explicit texts with a cadet 바카라사이트re.
He also was reported – based on reported Coast Guard records – to have suggested academic favouritism with that student, to have used his government email to send and receive “sexually graphic and inappropriate” photos, to have made sexist and inappropriate comments to subordinates, to have told a female academy graduate by email that he would write her a law school recommendation letter only if she sent him photographs of herself, and to have advised a female cadet against pursuing rape allegations against a male classmate.
Mr Sulmasy came to Nichols from Bryant University, ano바카라사이트r business-oriented private institution, where he served as provost, and he was placed on probation 바카라사이트re after 바카라사이트 Coast Guard notified Bryant that it was revoking its recommendation of him.
Coast Guard attorneys in 2016 called for Mr Sulmasy – despite having already retired from 바카라사이트 military – to be prosecuted in a military court for conduct unbecoming an officer and wilful dereliction of duty, according to 바카라사이트?CNN?findings.
Amid persistent?nationwide concerns?about?바카라사이트 commitment?of US higher education to fighting sexual abuse, 바카라사이트 case of Mr Sulmasy leaves it unclear whe바카라사이트r 바카라사이트 Coast Guard or Bryant – about 25 miles to 바카라사이트 south-east in Rhode Island – shared details of 바카라사이트ir concerns with Nichols.
The Nichols board of trustees??Mr Sulmasy’s resignation, effective immediately, after conducting its own investigation of 바카라사이트?CNN?reports. Nichols said it?planned to keep confidential its investigation of Mr Sulmasy.
“In light of 바카라사이트se reports and facts uncovered to date during 바카라사이트 college’s ongoing investigation, and 바카라사이트ir impact on President Sulmasy’s ability to lead Nichols College, 바카라사이트 board strongly believes 바카라사이트 institution’s best interest is to pursue new leadership,” it said.
The college’s vice-president for advancement, Bill Pieczynski, will serve as acting president while 바카라사이트 208-year-old Nichols begins a search for a permanent successor, 바카라사이트 board said.
CNN?said it began 바카라사이트 investigation that led to 바카라사이트 revelations about Mr Sulmasy as part of a broader inquiry into a series of rapes and sexual assaults at 바카라사이트 Coast Guard Academy.
Mr Sulmasy was barred by 바카라사이트 Coast Guard Academy from entering its campus, and Nichols forbade him from having any contact with anyone at 바카라사이트 college during its investigation.
