COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — The president of a historically Black Missouri university has been reinstated after an independent investigation cleared him of claims that he bullied another top administrator before she killed herself this year, university leaders announced Thursday.

FILE - John Moseley prepares to be sworn in as the 21st president of Lincoln University, Sept. 9, 2022, in Jefferson City, Mo. Moseley, the president of a historically Black Missouri university, has been reinstated after an independent investigation cleared him of claims that he bullied Antoinette Bonnie Candia-Bailey, another top administrator, before she killed herself this year, university leaders announced Thursday, March 21, 2024.

“For us, this report is not the end of a process, but rather the beginning of one,” Board of Curators President Victor Pasley said in a statement. “None of its findings have led the Board to doubt President Moseley’s ability to lead the University, but this tragedy has forced us to grapple more fully with issues facing Lincoln and our individual students and employees – ranging from mental health support to employee work and relationships.

Curators admitted that Moseley’s communication style is “direct” and that workplace stress under his leadership led to office tensions. Board members said they’re working with the president on staff training and resources to address those issues.
