Montana State University-Northern Chancellor Jim Limbaugh announced Thursday morning that he was resigning, effective Friday. An email sent to Northern faculty and staff reads:
Colleagues,
For almost three years, I have had the privilege to lead Montana State University-Northern as your Chancellor, working toward a shared vision of excellence in post-secondary education. Our students deserve our full attention to this endeavor; our community deserves a university of which it can be proud.
However, continuing controversy on campus and in the community has become a significant distraction to the achievement of our common goals and has hampered severely our ability to move forward. Therefore, for the sake of this institution, I am resigning as the Chancellor of Montana State University-Northern, effective Friday, August 29, 2014.
I wish each of you the best as you lead MSUN into its second century of service to the citizens of Montana.
Sincerely,
Jim Limbaugh

Limbaugh's own dishonesties, power-hunger, controlling nature, and the like brought this all on more than anything else did. Some of his falsehoods are obvious in the documents surrounding the Templeton affair. Were all of his firings wrong or unjust? No, for example, Templeton's alleged resignation. But he lost a number of fine people through some of them and through numerous others who left. And though he did some good work, overall he failed.
