The president of Lincoln University in Jefferson City plans to end her three-year tenure at the end of the current school year.
President Jerald Woolfolk announced Sunday that she was leaving the university to spend more time with her family. During Woolfolk’s tenure, the university raised a record $2.3 million in one year, held in-person classes during the COVID-19 pandemic and started the first law enforcement academy based at a historically Black college or university. The university's board of curators said it would name an interim president while conducting a nationwide search for Woolfolk's successor.
