Baylor Alumni Association board members selected new officers Saturday, after BAA President Collin Cox, resigned on Oct. 10.
In a letter to Chad Wooten, BAA executive interim vice president, Cox said he cannot be a part of an organization that will possibly sue the university.
“The BAA Constitution, which we as officers swear to follow, uses phrases like ‘unity of purpose,’ ‘the best interest and support of the University,’ and ‘a genuine interest in Baylor’s welfare,” Cox said. “I cannot personally reconcile these promises, which I hold deeply, with any prospect of full-blown litigation against Baylor.”
