WVU Vice President Resigns Amid University Restructuring

Rob Alsop, the Vice President for Strategic Initiatives at West Virginia University (WVU), has announced his departure from the university early next year. Alsop, who has served in the position for six years, will continue as a special advisor to WVU President Gordon Gee until the end of January. In response to Alsop's departure, Gee plans to reorganize the unit that Alsop has directed. Alsop has been instrumental in WVU's academic transformation, including recent cuts to majors and faculty positions. Gee expressed his appreciation for Alsop's leadership and service, and Alsop expressed his love for WVU and wished the university the best for its next chapter.
