University of Illinois Chancellor Richard Herman has resigned following months of pressure over the admissions scandal at the school's Urbana-Champaign campus.

The university says Herman will leave his post Monday.

Herman's name appears often in thousands of university e-mails detailing preferential treatment the school gave some well-connected student applicants.

The Faculty Senate voted last month to call for Herman and university President B. Joseph White to step down. White will leave his post in December.

Herman is a mathematician and will become a faculty member.

He came to the university as provost in 1998 and became chancellor in 2005.
