Hampton President To Take a Year’s Sabbatical

HAMPTON, Va.

Hampton University President William R. Harvey is taking a sabbatical after 25 years in office to work on a book, school officials said.

Harvey could begin his time off next July, said Provost JoAnn Haysbert, who will lead the private university during his absence. Harvey is taking up to a year off to write a book based on a 10-point guide he created to becoming a successful president, Haysbert told the Daily Press of Newport News.
