The Company announced that, on October 8, 2015, Dr. Mary H. Futrell expressed her intention not to stand for re-election to the Company’s Board of Directors at the 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, and therefore her term will end at the conclusion of the 2015 Annual Meeting. Dr. Futrell confirmed to the Board that her decision not to stand for re-election was in consideration of the Board’s retirement policy and for personal reasons, and is not the result of any disagreement with the Company relating to its operations, policies or practices. Dr. Futrell’s retirement comes after 8 years of distinguished service as a director, including as a member of the Compensation and Academic Committees of the Board. Her leadership experience and tenure in academic affairs has provided the Board with valuable strategic insights, experience and in-depth knowledge of the education industry. The Board also determined that, effective at the conclusion of the 2015 Annual Meeting, the size of the Board shall be decreased to nine directors.
