Robert Khayat to retire from Ole Miss

Robert Khayat to retire from Ole Miss on 6/30/9

Some University of Mississippi employees wept this morning when their chancellor of 14 years, Robert C. Khayat, told them of his plans to retire June 30.

“Having reached the ripe old age of 70-plus, it is time for me to retire,” Khayat said. “I do so with a heart filled with gratitude to the thousands of people who support our university. I leave with an abiding affection for the people and the school, and with confidence that this university will continue to provide the quality programs so vital to our state and region.”
