L.A. Community College Foundation Director Quits in Wake of Audit

The executive director of the foundation for Los Angeles Trade-Technical College has resigned, 10 months after being placed on leave in the wake of an audit that raised questions about payments made to her and other possible financial improprieties, the Los Angeles Times reported. Rhea Chung was placed on administrative leave in January, and she defended her record at the foundation in a letter to the chancellor of the Los Angeles Community College District. The county's district attorney is still investigating the possible wrongdoing at the foundation.
