{Lexington, Kentucky}...The University of Kentucky Board of Trustees is expected to approve the retirement of former UK President 76 year old Charles Wethington Tuesday. Wethington has earned $212,484 a year since 2003, when he became an associate professor at UK's Lexington Community College, now Bluegrass Community and Technical College. He earned as much as $265,000 a year during his first two years of post-presidential work as a fund-raiser for UK. He has been paid as a fund-raiser or associate tenured professor since stepping down as president in 2001. Wethington, an educational psychologist, has been with UK for 47 years. He became interim president after Dave Roselle's departure in 1989, and he was appointed to the post the following year.
