EAST LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) – Michigan State University Board of Trustees member Patrick O’Keefe has resigned.
O’Keefe’s resignation was confirmed by a spokesperson for the State of Michigan.
“We will begin our search to appoint someone who will stand up for those values and move the university forward,” a statement from the state said.
