Probation comes to an end for University of Louisville

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Probation has been lifted for the University of Louisville a year after Kentucky's governor fired the school's board and escalated a period of turmoil when other issues came to the surface.

University leaders said Tuesday that the school had resolved issues related to its governance, administration and finances in persuading an accrediting agency to remove its probationary status.

The decision by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges to drop the probation trimmed another problem off the list for UofL administrators as they try to steer the school past a tumultuous period.
