Texas university president denies claims of erratic behavior
SAN ANTONIO (AP) — The president of a Texas university insists he's healthy and is threatening to sue after the university's governing board placed him on medical leave because of "uncharacteristic behavior and comments."
University of Incarnate Word President Louis Agnese Jr. told the San Antonio Express-News (http://bit.ly/2btxKoC ) that he received a brain scan at the request of school officials and has been medically cleared.
