"The Board of Trustees revealed that John Cox was placed on paid administrative leave after receiving credible, serious reports and a subsequent formal complaint of inappropriate and unprofessional conduct."
"While the investigation found that Cox had not violated the policy, he did engage in inappropriate and unprofessional conduct toward the complainant that was inconsistent with his role as a College president."
"As we need to protect the privacy of the complainant and those involved in this confidential complaint process, and to honor and recognize the College's need to move forward, this is the extent of what will be shared regarding the investigation."
Cape Cod Community College placed former president John Cox on paid administrative leave after credible reports of inappropriate conduct. An investigation found no policy violations but confirmed inappropriate behavior inconsistent with his role. Cox resigned effective immediately after 14 years in leadership. Carinita Greene, the former vice president of academic affairs, is currently serving as acting president while the board seeks an interim and permanent replacement. The board emphasized the need for confidentiality regarding the investigation and the complainant's privacy.
