【時報訊】聖路易社區學院麥瑞克校區華裔校長白璞三月三十一日向總校長Zelema Harris提出辭呈，辭去校長一職，將於六月三十日生效。
聖路易社區學院總校長Zelema Harris說“我於三月三十一日接受白璞博士之辭呈，我要特別感謝白璞校長對聖路易社區學院，尤其是麥瑞克社區(Meramec Campus)之服務，並祝他未來順利”。
在一封向麥瑞克校區全校同事的信中，白璞校長表示，「雖然，我熱愛我們的學生和教職員，但是這裡不是我的終點目的地」，「我將協助學校度過這個會計年度，並且相信學校團隊能夠維持學校之持續成長和發展」。
據聖路易社區學院麥瑞克校區校報The Montage報導，白璞校長之辭職關係在於白璞校長決定不再續聘學生事務副校長Stephen Petersen博士，而不續聘Petersen博士在校區內引起很大之爭議，該校另一位副校長Vincent Hayden表示，白校長的辭職是一個明智和專業的決定。
Paul Pai Resigns as President at STLCC-Meramec
Paul Pai, Ed.D, has resigned his position as president of St. Louis Community College-Meramec, effective June 30.
"I accepted Dr. Pai's resignation March 31. I want to thank him for his service to St. Louis Community College, in particular the Meramec campus, and wish him well in his future endeavors," said Zelema Harris, STLCC chancellor.
In a letter to colleagues at the Meramec campus, Pai said: "Even though I love our students, faculty and staff, my destination is somewhere else. I will help the campus through the end of this (fiscal) year and know that we have great team members who will sustain the continued growth and development of the campus."
Pai was appointed Meramec president in June 2007. Prior to his arrival at Meramec, Pai served for four years as superintendent/president of Imperial Valley (Calif.) College. He also has held administrative positions at Georgia Perimeter College (Decatur, Ga.), San Diego Mesa College, in the Houston Community College System, at Louisiana State University-Eunice, Denmark (S.C.) Technical College, and at Johnson County Community College (Overland Park, Kan.).
Chancellor Harris will name an interim president in the coming weeks, but has not yet determined how the search for Pai's replacement will be conducted.
Established in 1962, St. Louis Community College is the largest community college district in Missouri and one of the largest in the United States. STLCC has four campuses - Florissant Valley, Forest Park, Meramec and Wildwood - and annually serves more than 100,000 students through credit courses, continuing education and workforce development programs.
