RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - The College of William and Mary’s board has extended Richard Bland College President Debbie L. Sydow’s contract through June 2019.

The three-year contract extension coincides with completion of Richard Bland’s five-year strategic plan.

The Richmond Times-Dispatch (https://bit.ly/1ix5tny ) reports that the board approved the extension on Friday so that Sydow can implement the plan. The extension doesn’t increase her $250,000 base salary.
