The death last week of former Ohio University President Charles Ping, for many, closed the door on a golden time in their personal and professional lives.
âFor those of us of a certain age, this man embodies what a university should be. R.I.P., President Ping,â read a tweet from the Ohio Bobcats Hockey Blueline Boosters.
In interviews and in online comments, those who knew Ping for decades those who met him in passing all described him as a wise and inspirational leader and as a kind and thoughtful man.
âI consider him to be the greatest president of a university that I have ever known,â said Richard Vedder, Distinguished Professor of Economics Emeritus.
