Bill Richardson out as head of LSU AgCenter, College of Agriculture

William “Bill” Richardson, who, through dual appointments as vice chancellor of the LSU AgCenter and dean of the College of Agriculture, was one of the most powerful administrators on campus, has stepped down and will return to a faculty position.

LSU President William Tate notified faculty and staff of Richardson’s resignation in a campus-wide email blast this morning, thanking Richardson for his decades of service and leadership.

The resignation was retroactively effective Aug. 4.

In a short email of his own to AgCenter faculty, Richardson did not give any reason for his decision to step down, an indication the move was not his by choice.
