The University of Louisville board of trustees will be losing their third member this year when former board chair David Grissom submitted his resignation Oct. 28.
John Karman, U of L spokesman, confirmed this and said it will be effective as of Dec. 1.
In July of this year Mary Nixon was voted as the new chairwoman of the board, with Grissom slated to remain on the board until his term expired. Grissom also came under fire earlier this year for his comments on the 2013 basketball scandal.
Grissom was recorded in a deposition saying that former President James Ramsey told him that a board member was the cash source behind the scandal.
