Guskiewicz Leaves MSU for Clemson

Kevin Guskiewicz, president of Michigan State University, is stepping down to take the helm at Clemson — a move fueled by a $1 million pay bump that still couldn’t overcome internal board fractures he described as stuck in the past. His departure follows a pattern of leadership turmoil at MSU, from Lou Anna Simon’s ouster over the Nassar scandal to Samuel Stanley’s resignation citing board distrust. With Guskiewicz gone, MSU faces a daunting search for its next leader — and Clemson gets a fresh start under a new president, reminding us that big institutional changes rarely come easy.
