According to HCC Board of Trustee’s Board Chair Dr. Cynthia Lenton-Gray, Maldonado will not have his contract extended after being chancellor for the past nine years.
The reasons surrounding his removal weren’t immediately clear, but Maldonado faced controversy during his tenure, including a lawsuit accusing him of purposefully demoting African American employees.
Maldonado will continue to work until his contract expires on Aug. 31.
