Michigan university president resigns after allegedly sending 'inappropriate' communications

The president of Calvin University, Wiebe Boer, has resigned following reports of inappropriate communication and attention towards a non-student member of the campus community.

The president of Calvin University has resigned after the Christian institution received a report of "unwelcome and inappropriate communication and attention toward a non-student member of the campus community," the school said Monday.

Calvin's Board of Trustees accepted Wiebe Boer's resignation, which he offered after admitting to sending communications that were inappropriate and inconsistent with the standard of conduct and character expected of his office, the Grand Rapids school said in a news release.

The report about Boer "did not include allegations of sexually explicit communication or physical contact, but the alleged conduct is concerning and inappropriate," the school said.
