Temple board announces intention to dismiss president

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Temple University's board of trustees has taken a vote of no confidence in President Neil Theobald and announced its intention to dismiss him.

The action comes less than a month after the removal of provost Hai-Lung Dai amid a $22 million financial aid shortfall, and Feeley said the decision was largely based on Theobald's handling of Dai's removal and the deficit.
