University of Michigan President Santa Ono leaving for same job in SEC

Santa Ono’s time as president of the University of Michigan appears to be over.

In a letter he put out to the community on Sunday, Ono announced his intentions to leave for the same position at the University of Florida.

Here is what he wrote:

Dear University of Michigan Community,

I write today to share that I have been selected as the sole finalist for the presidency of the University of Florida, and once the appointment is approved by their Board of Governors, I expect to assume that role later this summer.
