Interim named after Coastal Bend College president placed on administrative leave
BEEVILLE -- Board trustees voted late Thursday to put Coastal Bend College's president on paid administrative leave following about four hours behind closed doors.
Trustees also voted to "issue a letter of intent to discharge the college president," according to a statement attributed to board chair Carroll W. Lohse, sent via email to the Caller-Times by school spokesman Bernard Saenz.
Beatriz Espinoza has been president of Coastal Bend College for nearly seven years, according to the school's website.
The special-called meeting Thursday had only one item on its agenda, to be held in executive session, that included in its description the "evaluation, reassignment, duties, discipline, or dismissal of a public officer or employee, including the College President."
