Former Baylor President and Chancellor Ken Starr is leaving his position on the university’s faculty in a “mutually agreed separation,” according to a joint statement.

“Effective [Friday, Aug. 19], Judge Ken Starr will be leaving his faculty status and tenure at Baylor University’s Law School,” the statement reads.

Starr, who had worked in Baylor’s administration since 2010, was stripped of his president title and resigned as chancellor in the wake of a damning report on how the university handled sexual assault cases -- a scandal that beleaguered the school’s football program.

Starr was initially set to keep his position as a professor in Baylor’s law school after his demotion. Head Coach Art Briles was ultimately fired and Athletic Director Ian McCaw resigned in the days following the release of the Pepper Hamilton report.

4. That or the GOP leadership contacted him in advance to see if he would be willing to lead

a special investigation against Hillary because of the likelihood that she will kicks Trumps ass so that they can hopefully uncover something to nail her with no matter how minor before the 2020 elections so as to make it easier for whatever Republican is running on the ticket.

2. Going down, and it's about time.

He covered up sexual assaults by the football team and this punishment is far short of what it should be.

9. THAT Ken Starr ?????

Damn, what a coincidence.

10. Yes, THAT Ken Starr.

The one who so zealously sought to prosecute President Clinton in the Monica Lewinsky scandal. So, look what he did at Baylor. Absolutely nothing! He was part of the attempted coverup of rapes by Baylor College football players. What a hypocrite! Of course, it's really not surprising, is it?

Perhaps he could find a new job at Penn State.
