The UNC Board of Governors held a conference call today to approve the terms of the resignation of T.J. Bryan, who will leave her position as chancellor of Fayetteville State University effective July 23.

Bryan will keep a tenured faculty position at FSU and will receive her chancellor's salary of $215,000 on a paid leave through Dec. 31, reports Jane Stancill.

On Jan. 1, she will assume her faculty position at 60 percent of her current salary. Then, in fall of 2008, Bryan can resume a nine-month faculty position at normal pay for a professor in the English and Foreign Language Department.

Under the terms, Bryan will relinquish her state car on July 23 and move out of the chancellor's residence by Aug. 15.

Vic Hackley, who led N.C. A&T State University for the past year, was named today as interim chancellor at Fayetteville State University.

His appointment, effective July 23, was announced by UNC President Erskine Bowles, reports Jane Stancill.

Hackley, a former FSU chancellor, UNC system vice president and N.C. Community College System president, will serve until a permanent chancellor is chosen. He succeeds T.J. Bryan, who announced this week that she would resign amid a number of problems at the campus.

Hackley has gained a reputation as a turnaround artist. He is credited with uncovering serious financial abuse and mismanagement at N.C. A&T and helping clean up the problems. A team of UNC officials and auditors was sent to the campus at Hackley's request.
