By Kyeland Jackson —
Board of trustees Chair Larry Benz is putting his foot down.
Benz penned a letter to University of Louisville Foundation Chair Bob Hughes saying former U of L president James Ramsey must leave to avoid suit by the university. On top of that, Hughes must step down as foundation chair and Kathleen Smith, Ramsey’s chief of staff, must be put on administrative leave.
In the letter, Benz laid out mandates the foundation must meet to avoid a suit by U of L and restore confidence.
