Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre Haute will soon be searching for its third new president in five years. The engineering and science school announced today that Gerald Jakubowski was resigning effective June 30, three years after he took the job.

No reason for his departure was announced, and the school said its board of trustees would later determine the process for picking a new president.

Jakubowski was a top administrator at Arizona State University when Rose-Hulman hired him in 2006. He replaced John Midgley, who resigned in 2005 after less than a year on the job following vocal campus complaints about his management style.

The turnover in the president’s office follows Samuel Hulbert’s 28-year run of leading the 1,900-student private university.
