NELSONVILLE, Ohio (AP) - The only president Hocking College has ever had plans to leave after the current school year.
John Light, 77, announced Thursday that he'll retire in June.
He's led the 2-year southern Ohio school since it was created in 1968.
His current 2-year contract ends June 30.
Light had told trustees that he would leave when the contract expired, and he reminded them in a memo this week that it's time to start looking for a successor.
The state auditor, attorney general's office and the Ohio Ethics Commission are investigating possible fraud and theft at Hocking College.
Light has denied any wrongdoing in using a fund he controls to pay for tens of thousands of dollars in foreign travel for himself, his wife and college trustees.
