The school has also placed Kavajecz on administrative leave from his faculty position “until further notice,” Michele Wheatly, Syracuse University vice chancellor and provost, said in the short news release posted Wednesday on the university’s website.
In reaction to the arrest, Kevin Quinn, senior vice president for public affairs at Syracuse University, released the following statement on Friday.
“Given University policy, we are not able to discuss specifics of personnel matters. We have, however, confirmed with law enforcement that the alleged behavior did not occur on the Syracuse University campus, did not involve members of the campus community, and is unrelated to the former dean’s University responsibilities,” said Quinn.
In the Wednesday statement, Wheatly said that J. Michael Haynie, vice chancellor and a tenured faculty member in the Whitman School, will lead the school “during this time of transition.”
Haynie also serves as executive director of the school’s Institute for Veterans and Military Families.
