Ken Starr resigns as Baylor professor, finally leaves school

Former Baylor president and chancellor Ken Starr has finally severed the last of his ties to the school by resigning his position as a law school professor.

Baylor announced Friday that Starr would leave his position with immediate effect by mutual agreement.

“Baylor wishes Judge Ken Starr well in his future endeavors,” the statement said, via the Associated Press. “Judge Starr expresses his thanks to the Baylor family for the opportunity to serve as president and chancellor and is grateful for his time with the exceptional students of Baylor University who will lead and serve around the world.”

Starr was forced out as chancellor and president in the aftermath of the Baylor rape scandal, and he handled the fallout terribly. It was only a matter of time before the university completely cut him loose.
