SOURCES: STARR NAMED BAYLOR UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT
The Waco Tribune-Herald ^ | 2/15/2010

Posted on 02/15/2010 6:21:20 AM PST by LA Woman3

Kenneth W. Starr, the former independent counsel whose work led to the impeachment of then-President Bill Clinton, was named president of Baylor University this morning, sources said.

Starr’s appointment as president of Baylor brings a nationally known, but highly controversial figure to the Waco campus at a time of prolonged and occasionally tumultuous transition from a teaching school to one focused on research and the pursuit of a top-tier ranking among colleges nationally. It ends a nearly 20-month-long search that began when former Baylor President John M. Lilley was fired in July of 2008.

Baylor is (or was) a Christian school, yes?
