Virginia Senate Majority Leader Thomas Norment, Jr. said Monday that he plans to back the reappointment of University of Virginia Rector Helen Dragas to the university’s Board of Visitors for a second four-year term.
Dragas came under fire last spring for her role in seeking the resignation of university President Teresa Sullivan. The move created an uproar among students and alumni who opposed Sullivan leaving and the closed-door process under which the decision was made.
