Suit Filed Against Former LC Prez
Louisiana College, its president, and a former nursing school chairman are accusing former president Doctor Joe Aguillard of defamation of character and the group is asking for damages.
The 15-page lawsuit lists what they describe as untruths circulated by Aguillard after he had been fired as president. Doctor Rick Brewer, Doctor Cheryl Clark and representatives of the college say Aguillard knew he was lying and acted with reckless disregard of the truth. The lawsuit does not specify an amount of damages but asks for a proper amount.
Aguillard served as president for 9 years, and the lawsuit says that tenure was marked by discord and controversy.

Dr Cheryl Clark was a divisional chair of English and Languages before she was promoted to the position of VP for Academic Affairs. Some of this suit has to do with the nursing department students but not a former chair. It is only the current President and a former VP and LC filing the suit. Read it.
P.S. That stock photo of Joe Aguillard has got to go. He looks so mean and unmoveable. Please find a softer one.
